    so glad it's free roguey. Feel like I'm becoming an enabler!!

    It's all good - I find I need a regular supply of 'new' things to keep me happy. If they are small and free then all the better!

    Agreed :D

    Still no more UUs for me :( I have a bottle of Naked shampoo which is holding on for dear life :rotfl:
    May have a UU tonight though as I struggled to get any cream out of my moisturiser last night so fingers crossed that will UU tonight!

    Wait... I just remembered a UU from the other day, a Charlie Pink body spray full size :T WIBA? Prob, I do quite like it but have a few other body sprays to use up and I do like to vary the ones I use.
    Addicted to MSE, I can't resist a bargain ;)

    Another UU

    Essential Care Creamy Coconut Cleanser 30ml WNBA didn't like this at all,didn't seem to clean that well

    Have been wearing makeup every day except on Sundays and still haven't made a dent in any of it.
  • Hello

    An unheard of 2 UU for me today, if only every day was like this the stash would be gone in no time :D

    Trevor Sorbie Seriously Straightened conditioner - WNBA, nothing special, this was from a Xmas present a couple of years ago.

    Murad Anti Blemish moisturiser - probably WNBA, this wasn't really moisturising enough for me because although I get spots I also have really dry cheeks which need more than this. It didn't have sunscreen which I do usually look for in a daytime moisturiser but it did go on fine under makeup.

    I have a spluttering shower gel and a cut open tube of face scrub at the moment so hoping for a few more UU in February.

    A UU!

    Lush "Honey I washed the Kids" soap- WNBA because it made my skin quite dry and the smell didn't linger (I'm not at all picky, am I? ;))

    I'll hopefully have some more UU by the end of the month- namely a solid shampoo from Lush (it has shattered so I'm using it in pieces) and a satsuma shower gel from TBS, but you know how these showergels seem to expand as soon as the bottom seems near...

    Morning!

    5 UUs from me! :D

    Boots Essentials Nail polish remover 250ml - WBA if they put it in a bottle that didn't leak so badly!
    Dentyl Active mouthwash 100ml - WBA, didn't set off my sensitive teeth and the taste wasn't too strong.
    Johnson's Eye make-up removal pads x 30 - WBA, I love these!
    Palmolive Thermal spa shower gel 250ml - WBA, very foamy and moisturising for a shower gel, lovely smell and very cheap :j
    Ted Baker Body Scrub 300ml - WNBA as per my post below!

    I have used 2/3 of my existing and identical Ted Baker scrub (both from the purple case gift sets) and find it's very odd, it doesn't seem to adhere to the skin at all, so using it is like dragging a lump of something across your skin, you have to really push down on your skin to make it disperse and scrub you, so I decided to mix the remainder of the tub with some BS Ginger as I find the smell a bit much, and it's now perfect, so I'm going to do the same with second Ted Baker tub so using up the rest of the Ginger one. Result = no wastage!

    Sanctuary Bath float - WMBA if on offer. We have fairly soft water deep down here in the West Country but that being said I still needed to use lots to get a foam.

    Morning.

    Have two uu

    Avon Argan Oil - WBA, I liked this and it is regularly on offer but I don't need to replace yet as I have three other full size hair oils in the stash.

    No7 Balanced Cleaner (the green one), not sure if they still do this exact product now but i WBA but still have one more in the stash. Have replaced it with a No7 Age Defense Cleanser for now.

    Still at 5 ins for the month and £12 spent and I am really pleased to finally be whittling down the mountains of stuff I have.

  • Just checked my emails earlier and found out i've been picked for a trial of a new Venus razor and Olay moisturiser :j!

    Quite excited as this is my first trial i would have done and it'll be interesting to see what i have to do throughout it. Hopefully will come back with a recommendation :T

    Hope you all have a nice day :D
