    One UU today - Sure Crystal aerosol. WBA, but not for a while, as I still have a few roll on bottles to work my way through

    One TA - Superdrug ladies wax - got water in it, so it's not working anymore. WNBA, just not into waxing!

    I have some BS coconut oil hair shine, which doesn't work. I don't know what else I can use it for - any ideas?

    UU a Victor & Rolf Flowerbomb perfume sample. I liked the smell of this one!
    UU the rest of my Montagne Jeunesse Peel Off Passion face mask (as I didn't use the whole lot last time). I liked this mask and WBA.
    Also gave away a few make-up samples to my mum as I wasn't going to use them anyway.

    P.S. tried the Lush Comforter bubble bar for the first time last night and loved it! What a lovely smell!
  • No UU today but 3 ebay outs.

    Snow has mostly missed us although North and South have of Cumbria have got some bad patches.

    Stay safe and warm everyone.
    No more buying toiletries

    An NBI - an Estee Lauder Advanced Time Zone Age Reversing/Anti Wrinkle Cream, very cute 5ml sample pot. Has an SPF of 15 too. My current Olay is starting to run out so this will be a nice treat for my skin.

    For those who are fans of baths, I saw Radox Bath Smoothies in pomegranate, elderberry and yoghurt in £land.
    Mr B's have them at £3.15, so quite a bargain. I got one to give as a gift, no danger of me using it as I don't take baths, I'm a showers woman.

    Just painted my nails with Max Factor's Ivory and then L'oreal's You're Worth It as an accent nail. I used Bourjois' Top Coat, pretty impressed with it :)

    Hi All,

    Snow still going here in North Wales for the third day running, hopefully will start to ease off soon!

    I've one IN and two UU over the weekend so far:

    IN - Conditioner that comes with L'Oreal Preference hair colour - necessary as its been five weeks which is pretty much my limit roots wise!

    UU - Tresemme Heat Protection Spray - WBA - Good price for the size and seems to do the job as my hair is in pretty good condition despite regular colouring and straightening.

    Pure Age Defiance Wipes - These are 2 for £1 in Poundland and great for the price - WBA but I'm not going to replace them right away as I've no real need for wipes when I've still lots of 'proper' cleanser in the stash and I'm in a much better habit with that now. I do prefer it as wipes do tend to leave my skin feeling a little dried out.

    Currently on the look out for a new under eye concealer - I'm 35 this year and doing well on the line front but got the beginnings of dark shadows under my eyes. I'm using Dior Diorskin concealer at the moment and it definitely helps but is not as complete a coverage as I would like. Would be very interested in any recommendations anyone has for this problem. I'm toying with the idea of either S&G as I believe their makeup is very good or Benefit Erase Paste. Help please ladies!

    Hair colour remover - faniced a change a while ago and coloured my hair mid/dark brown on top of light/mid blonde (also coloured) have come to the conclusion - I dont like it!

    Nice and Easy - baby blonde colour

    St Ives apricot facial scrub - old fashioned I know but its reliable and I think value for money.

    Definately will be 2 UUs tonight due to hair but Sunday night is bath night - I have a sanctuary foot butter spluttering so maybe another one;)

    Balea Shimmering Body Scrub, 15ml - WNBA, smells lovely and leaves skin soft but there is no need for the shimmering element as it leaves nothing on the skin.
    Belnatur Balance Cream for Combination Skin Sachet x 1 - WBA, really like the range and smell!
    Mama Mio All in One Eye Serum, 15ml - WBA, love all eye creams and serums
