Yeah - I don't like it either Rosemary.

I have let another splutterer - my P & P beauty serum - I still have another one in the stash.

I am off to the cinema to see Avengers Assemble tonight - after an exhausting week and a half at work, this is my first day off.

UU
NARS black eyeliner pencil - WBA, its one of the best I've tried.


I've spent the afternoon doing a full list of my HG products. its already quite full so i figured from now on for something where i know i already have one or more HG there is just no point buying different things to try them out, i may as well use the money on what i know works and works well for me. i seem to be trying a myriad of cleansers and each one going "oh but its just not the liz earle!" when i could have just bought the liz earle and had done with it. same with moisturisers and shampoo too!

Mmm, think I must be your older cousin, cos that's just how I have been doing things, I could have afforded the HG's at full price, if I had not been doing "the testing":rotfl:

SuiDreams

I have another UU Boots Moisturising Nail Polish Remover Pads WBA, but think I still have a little tub of the quickies ones in the stash.

a satisfying UU from a LHJ:j

BS vitamin E body butter-WNBA- bit boring compared to others and the texture felt too heavy (maybe it's just body butters as I've been using the coconut milk recently and it feels lovely) I still have about 3 unopened BS butters left and itching to open a new one but should finish some more first

and a mini nivea deodorant WNBA as I've learnt to stick with sure!

I'm still waiting for the Canadian GlossyBox. I swear they have more shipping issues than I've had boyfriends! They started here in February and it was great. March's arrived on April 2nd. They just got around to putting April's in the post. They had promised to ship at the start of the month and now they are claiming to "ship when the boxes are perfect". Not that we've had anything as exciting as the UK boxes. We live in hope.

I have another UU from my BFs flat - Boots toothpaste - WBA but have another 9 in the stash there. I am slowly spreading my stash to his so that we never run out of anything:rotfl: and he keeps saying that I'm saving him a fortune as he doesn't need to buy any toiletries!! :A

well i realised yesterday that if i could only use the Liz Earle Cleanser Toner and Moisturiser with the Superskin oil bought when they do the buy all 3 and get something free offers for the rest of my life then my skin would be much happier. the clearest its been was when i first got the LE and used all 3 morning and night, and didn't bother changing and chopping "just in case" because what i was using was working. i was on Slimming World as well and all the healthy eating helped too and no matter how hard l'oreal try, they aren't going to be able to bottle that.

i dread to think how much i could have got of stuff i really like if i hadn't fallen for the whole Glossybox and Joliebox stuff too. the past 2 glossy boxes I've looked at and haven't even wanted any of it, id have "made do" if i got them but i don't want to waste money on making do.

Another UU for me to sneak into the end of the month:
