    :eek: Naked 3 palette is now out in the US. Wonder when we can get it here. I'm really excited for it after watching some tutorials using it on Youtube.

    Another small use up to report:

    Nivea DNAge Cell Renewal Anti-Age Hand Care sachet 2ml - lovely smelling but not rich enough for my liking so I wouldn't buy it.
    Time may be a great healer, but it's a lousy beautician.... :/

    Time to declare 6 IN's from my Elemis Set:), makes rather a mess of my stats for this month, but as VALM said "it would have been rude not to" :rotfl:

    2 UUs today...

    Guinot Vital Body Care Luxurious Body Firming Creme 15ml - WNBA. This was a competition win so I would not have bought it as I do not believe any lotion you can buy over the counter can firm skin. It was okay as a body lotion but rather thick.

    Eau De Lacoste (sample sachet) - WNBA. This was okay but didn't "wow" me. It also didn't smell for long but that could be because it was one of those tissue sample things.

    Did someone mention Naked 3????? :D Be still my beating heart! :o
    I wonder when it's released in the UK?
    :heart: Ageing is a privilege not everyone gets.
  • Clutterfree that's an interesting article, thanks for sharing. I will keep an eye out for any more differences when I'm next out. I think a lot of these toiletries have a huge mark up anyway - it is silly how much cheaper you can find products if you just look around.
  • Grr, realised last night that I hadn't counted the soap I keep at my boyfriend's house, so two more added to the list, but not as INs.
    Miranda and Ice Blue soap. Off to adjust my totals...

  • VALM - maybe I've just been unlucky but all the other PCMC GWPs I've had have been 15ml rather than 30ml?!

    No7 Gel Shine Nail Polish 10ml in Galaxy
    Benefit The PoreFessional 22ml
    No7 Instant Radiance Highlighter 5.5g

    So the rest is....
