    Elie Saab Le Parfum Perfume Sample - WBA, quite like this perfume. Had it as a sample before in glossybox
    Iroisie Ultimate BB Cream, 1ml - WBA if it wasn't so expensive. Really nice and doesn't affect my skin
    Dr Hauschka Moisturising Day Cream, 5g - WBA as i love Dr Hauschka products but for some reason this had gone really horrible and watery, i still used it but wondering if anyone else's had gone the same? Mine came from the set from Amarya!

    Two UU's to report:

    Sure mineral spray deodorant
    Liz Earle Sheer Skin Tint sample

    I ordinarily use Sure deodorant but this one was strange and tended to flake. not sure if I WBA.
    The Liz Earle Skin Tint was lovely, but unfortunately too dark for me, even in the fair shade. It also had a smell I didn't love. WNBA but this was just a free sample.

    VALM - I was shopping in the Liz Earle shop in Leeds, it is quite new and is in the very fashionable Victoria Quarter. The shop is on two floors and is really lovely, lots of staff to help and you got all the same deals as online. It was £70 you needed to spend to get the freebie kit. It was busy in the shop and there were lots of men buying mens things.

    I haven't been to Leeds for ages and it was really nice to go yesterday the only disappointment was that neither Boots or Debs stocked Philosophy and I really wanted to check out the Christmas things.

    Have a lovely break Maddiemay.

    *hugs for Rosemary* - you deserve so much better! Hope you can work out something that makes you happy.

    2 INs today, courtesy of Boots BOGO half price. :o

    Revlon Balm Stain in Honey: I have this in a brighter colour and love it so wanted something for every day.

    L'Oreal Voluminous: this is my HG mascara. It will stay sealed until I've finished the 2 other (different brand) mascaras that I have.

    Anyways me and OH are still at his dad's house as our flat still has a broken bath tap and cooker :mad::mad: demanded rent back from the estate agents as it wasnt on the inventory and we only found out when we came to use them, but they refused saying it was habitable! When you don't have hot water to wash, or a cooker, then how the hell is it habitable?! ii
    .
    HappyTorte, hope you get the flat sorted soon, if estate agent is sorting it make sure you keep chasing them.

    I sorted out my makeup bag yesterday and threw away 3 eye shadows. UU's have been slow recently apart from using up hotel freebies. Not bought anything so far this month.

    I have recenlty started to use my frangipani monoi body oil from Elemis, it's a lovely product but what a pain that the product keeps getting solid. Where do you store your body oil this time of the year to stop it from getting solid?

    If you take it in the bath or shower with you it will have melted when you get out, or stand it in a dish or jug with warm water in. I am using the mini size and I find that if I roll it between my hands for a few minutes it is useable for my cuticles.
