    Two UU's

    Lancome La Base Pro - an amazing primer but I wont be buying it again because Sooo much product gets stuck inside the glass packaging and theres no way of getting it out. I've spent the best part of half an hour with a makeup brush getting out as much as possible but theres still loads of wastage and for the price... not that impressed! Probably WNBA

    Conversely just finished my REN glycolactic radiance renewal masque, wrenched the top off that and next to nothing left inside the baggy inside the packaging... very impressed. Also a HG so WBA for sure

    M&S are doing a lovely GWP with Ren at the moment if you are looking to replace soon, it is online and in store.

    Have a uu

    Mandara Spa Amber Heaven Body Cream - 50ml, WNBA, the scent is lovely but it just would not rub in, in the end I left the white streaks all over and just put my PJ's on. Unfortunately I have 2 more minis and a full size in the stash.

    Also a TA

    Clinique lip palette - this was a bonus time freebie ages ago and has 4 colours, all the colours are lovely and suit me but I just don't have the time or inclination to apply lip products from a palette with a brush. Shame really but I am fed up of seeing it.

    Checked out the Clinique bonus time at my local department store, looked at the City Block and the cleansing balm, in the end I walked away empty handed - yay.

    To you ladies putting items on ebay do you know that they now take 10% of the postage fees, there is a link on the right of this page telling you about it. They are unbelievable, I only ever charge what it costs but would have to add more money on to cover this.

    I read this yesterday and was shocked! I also only ever charge what it costs and am really annoyed about this. Especially as I listed some stuff on there a few days ago and was unaware of this.

    Have a UU:

    123: Garnier Pure Exfo-Brusher Wash 150ml - WNBA, is has taken me so long to use this up as I only used it a few times a week because I really didn't like it! The bristles felt scratchy on my face and I have recently decided not to use an exfoliator on my face but rather a toner that does that job too. Annoyingly, I have a few facial exfoliators left. Not sure what to do with them really.
  • Couple of Uu to report
    Sanctuary zibu rich body butter 50ml- wmba but this is the one area of my "stash" I have alot of so won't be getting anything new for awhile
    Also finished up 2 travel shampoos and a conditioner but
    Have 2x pure green hair and body wash
    2x pure green body lotion. From hotel so at least free
    £365 a year spend challenge - this has included food/clothes/beauty?? who knows where I am

    Also some UUs this week :j -
    Soap and Glory Glad Hair Day shampoo and Superdrug Coconut and Almond conditioner. WNB the shampoo again, nothing special, but for 99p will definitely get the conditioner again, it's a great product, ever so cheap, and I never stash conditioner...
    Soap and Glory Slimwear Cellulite cream - WNBA, massive rip off (of course).
    And finally a pot of Catastrophe Cosmetic face mask from Lush. WBA, my HG face mask :)

    And some INs :o
    2 NSpa body butters in Passionfruit and Peach. I've been wishing and hoping for them to extend the body butter range to include these two scents, so I couldn't resist today!
    The Elasticiser sample from InStyle.
    BB Seaweed Lush mask free with pots.
    A sample (30ml) of Origins Drink Up Overnight Mask from a voucher my mum had - v excited about this!
    4 mini Burts Bees products, unwanted by my mum - Hand Salve, Cleanser, Body Lotion and a lip balm, I believe.
    No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries in January!
