I don't have Rouge Noir, I have 2 or 3 similar colours (not recent ones) and decided that to me, RN was not worth the cost, although I have other Chanels.

I found this comparison http://www.honeymunchkin.com/2013/12/27/comparison-of-nails-inc-victoria-and-chanel-18-rouge-noir/

That was exactly what I wanted to know, thanks! :T

A couple of UU's and 1 IN

UU - 8.5g Burts Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream WNBA, prefer pen type or brush for cuticle oil/cream.

269ml - Lush Dream Cream, WBA as my skin loves this, but far too many body lotions etc to use up first.

IN
My planned purchase and NEEDED toner - Pixi Glow Tonic.

I was very restrained and didn't order the Nails Inc:money:

Oo let me know how you get on with the Pixi please Maddie.

My soap and glory order got here I'm chuffed full size butter yourself, heel genius, hand food, and mascara all for £15 including the postage woo! my love of the ebay is restored .... BUT... I have nowhere to put them argh! I'm not doing very well with this no buying thing...

I also accidentally came home with 2 Deborah Lippmann nail varnishes from Homesense. Normally they sell them in 3's but 1 was missing so it had gone from £14.99! a price I've been tempted at a couple of times.. all the way down to £2!!! One is called Believe and is gold and glittery, the other is called My Old Flame and is red, quite a rich red. I'm thinking keep the gold and the red on ebay... maybe... the fact it was only £1 is throwing me... I don't even wear red yet I'm tempted to keep it lol.

also boots have sent me a letter, which is going to be really hard to resist, 100 bonus points when I buy soap and glory going to be tricky! However I think I deserve bonus points I bought nothing for myself from Avon this month

Oh no! I updated my stash... I started the month on 191, now I'm back to 190...

UU: Sure deo (pink can)

IN: vaseline compact deo (blue can)

As long as a deo does its job I'm not too fussed on brand, i just buy whatever is on offer

I have a UU - Lush Snowman Bath Ballistic

It had cocoa butter in it which I know is not everyones cuppa tea but I personally love it, you can feel it on your skin and it just makes your skin feel really soft! I only ever buy Lush in the Boxing Day sales so will probably end up with this again this year!

Also I took inspiration from Pickles sig and have changed mine! As I too, have too many books to read and DVDs to watch! Another thing to sort out! I want to start overpaying the mortgage so I have done a test £1 to check the payment is set up correctly and so the less books/beauty stuff/dvds I buy, the more I can pay onto that!

GA #2: Blistex Intensive Moisturiser; WNBA, hated the smell and the feel of it on my lips too. Didn't seem all that mousturising to me either. Going back to trusty Vaseline and DS1 can have this.

Eeek I'm so behind! :eek: You ladies are super chatty!
OUTs
12 - Used up some The Sanctuary Kyphi bath milk. This was gorgeous, smelt amazing too! WDBA
13 - Gave away a mini-perfume from Superdrug called something like In The Pink (?) not my thing at all, very floral.
14 - UU B.Pure micellar water from Superdrug. WDBA is amazing and like £3-4 too. Hurrah!

I'm not getting on very well with the Natural Collection mascara. It is the only mascara I have. The brush is rubbish, I wish I'd kept my old mascara so I could use the brush from that!

2 INs: Instead, I bought a new mascara today, Collection Extreme Colour (£2.99) and I bought a Baby Lips lipbalm (£2.99) because I tend to use a pot of vaseline when I'm at work but I use a lot of chemicals in my work so might not be the best idea. Decided to buy something to moisturise my lips without touching my lips directly IYSWIM....

2 UU's for me

Everyone's doing so well! I haven't had any UUs this week yet, but haven't bought anything either (since I sinned at the boots sale last week) so that's a positive step for me. And I resisted the nails inc tsv too! This thread is definitely helping me.
