    UU

    Nivea Soft Refreshingly Soft Moisturising Cream 200ml - I used this on face and body and it's a great all rounder. It moisturises the skin without being greasy. WDBA.

    Herbal Essences Seriously Smooth Conditioner 200ml - I love Herbal Essences and this conditioner did the job. WDBA. Plenty to use from the stash first though!

    A heads up, this serum has mineral oil as one of the main ingredients which make it too expensive for what it is. Mineral oil is useless for the skin. It even makes me breakout :eek: I love Clarins but I was gutted with this one. Obviously, it is a matter of choice ;)

    I have just seen on C Hurons instagram page that as from Sept this will not have any mineral oil in the ingredients.

    I have a body lotion that was sent to me to test. I decanted the remaining into a pot and will try to UU it this month.
    .

    I have now UU'd this. So one unnamed product out. Wish I knew what it was as I didn't particularly like it.

    Also another one: Murad Anti-Ageing Blemish Advanced Blemish & Wrinkle Reducer. For the price, I didn't feel that I got good use out of this. Also unsure about the effectiveness. However sometimes you only see it after stop using it.I like the texture and it was very easy to apply though. I might buy again, if I find a good deal.

    1 IN: Bare Minerals Complexion Rescue Tinted Hydrating Gel Cream in Natural. I had £10 worth of Debenhams points so this cost £17 and I needed something like this to use in summer. This gets very good reviews and I only used once but really liked it.

    Thanks for that asajj, will give it a miss. Have plenty more serums/oils to go through :(

    GMAT

    Looks like they have decided to remove mineral oil from this, from September :T Too bad I can't take my serum back for a replacement :p

    2 UU and a few essential in's

    UU:
    Clarins Exfoliating Body Scrub for Smooth Skin 100ml WMBA. I got this as a freebie from the girl on the counter when i used to work in Boots. I did like this and haven't used anything with a similar formula, but the price tag is ridiculous! I'd happily use again but not sure i'd ever buy it for myself.
    Imperial Leather Marshmallow Shower Cream WDBA. Love this, smells incredible. This bottle seemed to go quite quickly, but never the less i'll always repurchase

    In's:
    Herbal Essences Bee Strong Shampoo and Conditioner I don't have any full size shampoo and conditioner left, only minis!
    Imperial Leather Bubble Bath - Marshmallow and Muscle Soak On offer in tesco and needed something soothing to help shift this cold

    2 more UU!!!

    8. Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish 200ml - WBA I'm not sure it's a HG but I keep using it, I have a mini and I think another full size in my stash and I want to try the Botanics version to see if its a cheaper alternative

    9. Lush Rub Rub Rub - WBA, I really like the fragrance of this and it's good and scrubby, I just need to remember to use scrubs more often!

    Keep up the pampering ladies :T

    my local aldi have a liz earl versoin that is very good according to the papers. I looked at the ingrediants and they were very good, but i resisted as i hate washing my face.

    I have been very lazy for the last few days no make up or progress. I have a headache that made me go dizzy. I know it is stress and overwork, anxiety and sheer pressure. I have time off in july and i intend to relax.

    One for me to check out on holiday. I think I'm likely to pick up either a Lorac Pro palette or Kat Von D. This Naked one looks very similar to the Anastasia Beverley Hills Modern Renaissance palette.
    Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!
