    It's slow going but I have another UU to report...

    Clearasil Ultra Overnight serum - WBA as I got this for the pound shop and I do think it's helped the spots around my jaw line. Going to finish up a Clean & Clear Advantage Quick Clear Spot Treatment Gel 100ml that I've had on the go for a couple of years at least next:D

    I feel so horrible for neglecting this thread. All I have to say is that out of the forums that I belong too, you ladies are the best! Very friendly, drama free, and just super when it comes to communication.

    I swear I will catch up one day!

    I work another 7 days without a day off, then I have 2 days off and then another 14 days without a day off, then off I go on my holiday.
    I can not wait!

    Just jump in when you can. It's always good to hear from you! :)

    I'm not surprised that you can't wait until your hols - that's a lots of days to work without days off :eek:

    I have a brush update for you - I'm not that impressed with the buffing brush. :( I end up using more foundation that normal and it just isn't working well for me :( I did have very high hopes for this brush though, so I'll keep trialling it...

    The case is brilliant though :rotfl: I've washed all of my brushes today and am going to have a really good test of them once they're dry. I'm in the mood to whittle things down and find out what really works for me. I'm testing primers and bases as well - I had Shu Uemera Stage Performer on one side of my face today and the Revlon Photoready primer on the other! :rotfl: The Revlon is beating Shu at the mo. I've reverted to Revlon ColorStay on top as my usual foundations weren't sitting well (due to the heat? I'm not sure...)

    The RT brushes did dry overnight, so that gets a thumbs up from me. Most of my other brushes are drying quickly though so it's difficult to tell if they're better than normal in this respect :cool:

    Update over! :rotfl:

    Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
    Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.
    Take time but don't waste time

    No UU to report. Getting close with a couple of cleansers :)

    Painted my toenails with Nails Inc Victoria and my fingernails with Nails Inc Leicester Square (horrible brush on this one :(). Victoria is such a gorgeous colour but my bottle is getting gloopy. (I will thin it next time).

    I really enjoyed being able to pull out a colour-coded box of polishes - so much easier :j
  • THanks so much for the review Willowbee!!!!!! xx

    quick update on UU's

    Nars face primer travel size: I liked the light textured fluidity of this primer. It helped make a difference, but not sure if it's worth the money tho???

    I have more UU's to report later today as I did manage to sell 10 items on ebay, and have a care package leaving today for another friend.

    Hi all. Hope everyone is well.
    Just checking in to say I'm still alive Haha.
    I will post a list of UU (and INs) later when i get a better connection.
    I have exciting news, I am off on holiday in october! Yay. To Florida!!!
    I'm beyond excited, looking up sephora and the like, and deciding what toiletry goodies i can take with me.
    Therefore, I really must make a real effort in getting a dent in the stash.

    Catch up with you all properly later, have a good day all.
