    UU

    TBS Satsuma beautifying oil - When I bought this it smelled lovely but the fragrance has completely disappeared. So a word of warning to all those with it in the stash pile - it doesnt appear to keep! I think I have one more of these from a Christmas gift but WNBA.

    INS

    Free sample of colgate sensitive pro relief

    and now a confession -
    before I joined this thread I hadn't tried Elemis and now I have an addiction - I havent tried much from the range but everything I have has been wonderful and I want it all - so more ins:

    Elemis majestic beauty - 5 items
    Elemis flash balm
    and with these came
    3 sachets of Elemis flash balm and a gift of 5 further items

    Although my skin is still far from perfect Elemis and Clarins have settled it down from the huge sore spots that I was getting when I first started this thread. It may just be a coincidence and my hormones may just have settled but im sticking with it as its done wonders for my confidence (if not my bank balance)

    and a further 9 ins from the LIB CEW box bought for the Elemis PCMC
    No more buying toiletries

    Hi ladies,

    I'm just about keeping up at the moment, one small UU for me - Duck Island Bath Foam & Shower Gel - nice fragrance and bubbled up well, plus the 30ml bottle will be handy for decanting some shampoo into for an upcoming weekend away.

    I've started the month with a few splutterers so hopefully May will be more successful than April was - currently deliberating as to whether I should use the No. 7 voucher that I think runs out today - I really like their foaming cleanser but I've got some Nivea face wash I know I won't use if I get that.... Decisions, decisions!

    INS:

    - 88 eyeshadow palette. Hoping it will replaced some not-so-great one I have in my makeup kit gathering dust.

    That's it! (for now)

    I have 4 UUs to report! :D

    S&G Clean On Me Shower Gel 500ml - Really like this shower gel have loads in the stash! WBA

    L'Oreal Lumi Magique Highlighting Concealer - Great for under eye dark circles, nice thin consistency and easy to blend. WBA - have another part used one in the stash

    GOSH Soft n Shine Lip Balm in Scarlet - This wasn't really a lip balm, more of a sheer, moisturising lipstick. Scarlet was a subtle soft pink, quite warm toned and easy to wear. WBA - but it's been discontinued :( I've kept the last tiny bit of the lipstick so I can scoop it out and try and find a dupe!

    Dove Nourishing Oil Shampoo - A very moisturising shampoo - WBA
    September Grocery Challenge £0/£225

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    UU Madara Moon Flower tinting fluid 5ml WMBA nice light coverage and didn't look like I had been tango'd.

    UU Cien deodorant sensitive WMBA am already onto another can but have noticed this morning that its really dried out my armpits. Also when you spray it, I find it makes me cough as its quite strong. Going back to trusty Mitchum.

    TA 3 x sachets moisturiser as out of date and tried one and it flaked off, not a good look!

    I have been through my facial moisturisers and am lacking anything with SPF now we have sunshine so may have to purchase.
