    Two mini UUs: Sample perfume which has been lying around in my bag. Unfortunately cannot identify what perfume it is as all the label has disappeared. It was alright, nothing special so WNBA.
    Last remaining cotton wool pads

    Three ins, hair products as Im having a bad hair year!:
    Organic Root Stimulator Anti-Frizz Olive Oil Glossing Polisher
    Organic Root Stimulator Carrot Oil
    Fantasia Hair Polisher Heat Protector

    3 UUs in one day! :j And all full size too!

    Aussie Miracle Moist Conditioner 250ml. WNBA. It did the job but I still prefer their Mega Instant Conditioner. My hair isn't dry enough to benefit form using this one. If you have dry hair I'd say give it a try. It does smell delicious though, like all Aussie.

    FCUK Pure Shower Scrub 200ml. WMBA. I have a few other scrubs in the stash to tr out but I do really like this one. The smell is lovely, it works very well and it rinses off pretty easily. Replaced with Avon Olive Oil Scrub.

    Garnier 7 Days Ultra Softening Lotion 250ml. WMBA. Very nice indeed. I got this as a freebie when they ran out of sample sizes and started sending out full size bottles. The smell was OK, but it is very moisturising (this is the Shea Butter one for extra dry skin), I used it mainly after shaving my legs and am very pleased with it. I have a few more lotions open so I'll use those up before opening anything new.

    Bit of a slow month despite my best efforts to use things up.
    5 IN's from glossybox- not sure what I make of these, a couple of nice bits but fed up of nail polishes every month.
    Bought a tub of lavender gel from a lavender farm I visited.

    UU's- 1. S&G body spray- this has taken months to use up, have already repurchased as it was on 342 and is good value.
    2. Avon shower gel- again have already repurchased as its often on offer.
    3. Small glass vial of "flowerbomb"- WNBA, smelt nice but the full size bottle is too expensive for me.

    Hopefully use up a shampoo,shower gel and body spray before the end of the month. Try and use up a few sachets as well.

    I have my eye on one of the polishes this month so would be happy to take it off your hands if you were willing ;) swaps or would pay for it of course.

    Had my make up done on the Dior counter today as wanted to try out the BB cream that have read good reviews from bloggers about. Sadly it looks a bit orangey on me I feel, although that may be because the woman caked it on :rotfl: might try the lightest shade as she used the second lightest on me as she said she thought that would be the better match. I specifically said that I didn't want to look orange :mad:

    Edit: Just realised I got confused and it's a birchbox one that I have my eye on. Oops.

    More in's to declare

    6 from birchbox
    8 sachets of shampoo and conditioner (not sure why I received 2 packs I only applied once)
    1 small bottle of M&S bubble bath from my Nan.

    I am also getting bored with all the nail polishes in beauty boxes, I would not mind if they were nice colours but I have had 4 white shades 2 gold and a few more really light shades that really don't look nice. I have given most away but I am ewven running out of people to give them to.

    Morning everyone

    I have more INs to declare: 3 shower gels and 2 anti perspirants thanks to the Boots vouchers again. Won't buy any more now this month but seemed sensible to stockpile a little whilst so cheap. Still only means I have 4 APDs and 4 (full-size) shower gels in the stash, so reasonably under control still but will tide me over for a couple of months think.

    Total spend on toiletries is still under £5 and I intend it to stay that way! :D
