    Have a uu

    No7 Age Defence Cleansing Balm - I don't think No7 do this any more but I probably wouldn't buy again anyway. I don't know why they call it a balm when it is actually a lotion. Removes makeup reasonably well but no wow factor with this. Have replaced it with a No7 Perfectly Balanced Cleanser.

    Ouch! Exactly the kind of thing that usually happens to me :rotfl:

    :D


    A LHJ UU, YAYYY!:
    Body Shop Olive Shower Gel 750ml - this took me AGES to finish! Good stuff, WBA

    All this anticipation to finish stuff and then I realise this means I have to go out and buy another shower gel as that was my last in the stash! But yayy for graduating in the shower gel department! :D

    Used up:

    John Frieda Brilliant Brunette Shampoo 250ml WIBA? No. I don't like the new formula as much as the old one, and for the price, I'd rather buy Aussie.
    Nivea Pure and Natural Night Cream 50ml WIBA? Maybe. My skin likes it, and I like the scent, but I'm a bit bored of it...
    Bio Oil 60ml WIBA? I don't think I'll ever need to, I have 2x 200ml to go, and this one took me years to use up!

    Nothing to report from here really, been very hot today, had to retreat indoors for a large part of the afternoon, so lots of catching up to do before we leave for a long weekend away earlyish tomorrow. Have to pack and decide whether to take L'Occitane travel sizes or the lovey looking Nougat set I was given for Christmas, and need to find something to decant some EH Moringa Balm into, getting towards the bottom of a 200ml pot - bit big to find space in suitcase for:eek: Have a lovely new (really new not CS) maxi dress to wear to the party tomorrow evening too, doggie going to stay with friends, so hoping to do the tourist thing and visit SS Great Britain on Sunday as we are staying in Bristol.

    Have a good weekend all, catch up with you next week.:D

    3 INs but they were given to me by one of my customers.

    Crabtree & Evelyn Jojoba Body Lotion
    Organix Argan Oil Conditioner
    2x M&S Lily Of The Valley soap

    UU
    A mini Batiste Dry Shampoo, the pink one. WBA, I have at least one more mini in the stash, of different varieties.

    Thinking of throwing out my L'Oreal Lash Architect Waterproof Mascara, because it's not. It's worse for smudging than non-waterproof ones. Without even touching it or doing anything other than just normal life I end up with panda eyes:mad: In fact it's made me so cross just writing about it that I've decided it's got to go. So that's another OUT.
  • UU

    Colgate toothpaste - WNBA bored of the mild mint taste - still a fair few to go though.

    crest whitening strip - WNBA I cant use these daily as intended (so results are not dramatic) as they make my teeth super sensitive -


    In

    Keratase hair masque sachet - facebook freebie - looking forward to seeing it the brand lives up to the hype.
    No more buying toiletries

    Don't throw out old mascaras, keep them for the clinique travel size exchange every year :)

    Another of last month's naughty moments just caught up with me today, so six INS to declare. Five piece Alpha H Liquid Gold Collection + Free Sample of Alpha H Balancing Cleanser

    Not really all that bad though, as they're mostly 15ml sample sizes and no doubt they'll get used up quite quickly too. :D
