Have you tried the Sleek concealer palette? I've heard good things about it. Not sure if my local Superdrug stocks Sleek though and I can't get away with buying make up at the larger store when hubby is with me! Lol.
I haven't tried the concealer palette, haven't actually seen that yet, think I saw on a blog but not yet in the shops.mad_scientist wrote: »I have been using the Botanics Allbright night cream and think it is pretty good so far. It was definitely less than a fiver when I bought it although I'm sure it would have been on some kind of offer to get me to buy it
Thanks :j I will give that one a go.
Kadison I have a few of those Elf eyeshadow palettes that I bought in the sale. Haven't tried them yet though
I also want to try the Glam Glow masks, thanks for posting the offer Hammyham. Shame it's out of stock although I don't have the money to spend at the moment anyway.0 -
2 INS
1/ sure max sensitive (on offer in morrisons so thought I'd snatch one up while cheap)
2/ Mitchum roll on- again, on offer.
I seem to have one 'overactive' arm pit
I have been using 'inhibitif' deodorant which has seemed to have been doing the job of stunting my underarm hair growth but it's not being so reliable on the 'deodorising' front:eek:No more unnecessary toiletries Feb 2014 INS: 24 UU: 13. Mar 2014. INS: lost count, naughty step for me! UU: 80 -
I am expecting delivery of Revitalash in the next few days, I decided to spend some christmas money on it and ordered it from Q*C, if I have a reaction to it I can return it. I hope that it will work I would love my lashes to be thicker and or longer.Misty_Blue wrote: »I'm looking forward to hearing how you get on with this.
I caved and bought today's Alpha H TSV. In my defence, I had only 12 hours earlier been reading reviews of the Liquid Gold and was planning a purchase, so it's kind of saving money..... I've never tried it before so I hope it's as good as it's made out to be!
QVC have a Revitalash TSV on the 28th! :wall:
It's for lashes and brows.
I've always fancied trying it but the bit that puts me off is that you have to keep using it to maintain the growth.
I over plucked my brows years ago so if that worked then I'd be very tempted.Ageing is a privilege not everyone gets.

2 more UUs - Dove Roll on, WMBA this just melted everywhere but I've had it for a long time.
Elizabeth Arden Flawless Finish Foundation in Porcelain Beige - Replaced with another one but I'm thinking of switching to the Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation as it seems lighter and more natural looking.Decluttering 2015: 2162/20150 -
Hi All,
Three more UU, L'Oreal Eversleek Shampoo - Would happily use again if given some or was on a mega offer but Everpure edges it for me, just leaves my hair feeling and behaving slightly better so probably WNBA
Boots Fresh! Chocolate Swirl Body Wash - Initially mistook this for bubble bath, I think due to the shape of the bottle - anyway, it was delicious! Like washing in chocolate milkshake, I'd imagine!!! WBA but not sure its available? Do these sets only come out at Christmas, not too sure...
Finally, Bomb Cosmetics Rosebud Buttercup, just added this to the bath I'm about to have, my neck is aching and I'm sure its down to an extremely stressful first day back in work yesterday :eek::eek::eek: Was so bad I'm only grateful I didn't know what was in store... Anyway today is a new day and its nothing chocolate, prosecco, The Vampire Diaries and a nice soak can't numb. I've loved Bomb Cosmetics products in the past but been quite underwhelmed with this boxful so far, just don't seem as nice as usual or maybe I've been spoilt with Lush ballistics that are just a bit more in your face!0 -

I was really lucky with the other thing I wanted which was the Lacura 30ml Face Treatment Oil. They must have had quite a few in judging from the space reserved for the boxes but only four or five of both the Dry and Sensitive formulations left. I got the Dry which is macadamia nut, sea buckthorn and argan oils.
I had a sea buckthorn eye cream that I was given to review by Amazon in 2012 which was really lovely but VERY pricey, well for my budget, so I was pleased to see this as one of the ingredients.
So you'd recommend the foot cream? I will have a look to see if any left when I go later this week as I don't have any foot cream at all.
Two completely unintentional and technically free INs from my slimming club raffle:
Nivea Rich Moisturising Day Cream
Nivea 3 in 1 cleansing water
Debt free and busy treating myself:)
No more toiletries/make up until I've used what I've got stashed since Jan 2011, graduated October 2012. Restocked Dec 13..damn those sales0 -
Evening everyone. Got a couple of INs and one OUT/UU to report!
Ajala White Tea Shower Gel 30ml - freebie (for the price of a hotel room) at the weekend. Then this is my UU as I finished it yesterday. Nice smell, actually. Did the job!

Evening ladies
I'm just been trying to catch up with the thread, congratulations to our lovely ladies who are getting married, wishing you every happiness
Belated Happy birthday greetings to those who have had birthdays this month, and hugs to anyone who needs them.
I have some uu's to report:
No 7 hot cloth cleanser, I seem to have gone through this very quickly, I'm sure I finished one of these earlier in the month, anyway it does the job so wba
Umberto Giannini dazzling shine conditioner, wasn't that impressed with this and wnba
Philip Kingsley body building shampoo, this will be finished in the morning so I'm declaring it now. This has been in use for months,
and I have loved using it, would definitely buy again.
Happy pampering xo0 -
Morning ladies
UU:
41. FCUK Pure body lotion 75ml - WBA, though suspect this has been discontinued as it's a stash relic from the sales a few years ago. Pleasant scent and found it to be sufficiently moisturising, unlike most lotions. I have another in the stash.MFW 2017 #123 2018: £1,852.64/£39,200 (4.7%)0 -
Morning everyone! Have a few more UU's to report:
Philip Kingsley Moisture Balance Conditioner - WNBA, got this as a sample with a BB and definitely won't be springing for the full size. I've tried Philip Kingsley products before and apart from the Elasticizer, I've not been impressed.
Nars Laguna Bronzer - There was only a tiny bit in the pan and it had crumbled away to almost nothing so I'm declaring it as a UU. I'm not a big bronzer fan but this was ok. You had to be careful not to use too much otherwise it would look really orange though.
I think this takes me to almost 40 UU's for the year already now! At this rate I'm definitely not going to be able to stick to my £120 budget!Emergency Fund - £8572.39 / £10,000 :: Mortgage OP 2025 - £LISA 24/25 - £3200 / £4000 :: NSD 2025 - 2 / 150 :: Books Read: 1 / 52 :: Decluttering - 4 / 1000Engaged 9th December 2010 :: Married 29th October 2015 :: Bought a House 13th January 20170
