Making another decision and adding a Rimmel Apocalipsin Nova to my Mum's pile. I've worn it maybe twice, it's quite aging on me though it's lovely. In the bag it goes!Cookie, I think you're tame. :heart2:

A couple of UU here BS almond Hand Cream 30ml, as others have said watery but I suposse it was free! UU of Skin Therapy 2 in 1 cleanser lotion, really like this and such a bargain, will buy again after I use the new cleanser face wotsit.

The spray bottle has broken so instead of spraying nicely over my hair it just sort of...spits into it leaving hard patches. And it stinks of alcohol! What makes you like the TXT one?.
I like the TXT because I found with the matte and messy that it was a little bit sticky and didn't rate the smell much as you have said but TXT is an aerosol spray which makes it easier, smells much nicer and has a much more lightweight feel in the hair and isn't sticky at all. I really want to try the Charles worthington texture spray (forgot the name, purple bottle) too
In other news UU a tea tree and which hazel facial scrub from bootsthink it's their own brand. WNBA because the scrubby bits were few and far between, prefer other face products in same brand.

Just did a survey and I'm being sent 'something' to trial, it is something I've not got a stash of so that's not too bad. Ages since I had a beauty related trial, if you discount the avalanche of review goods from Am@zon.Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again... I would have burned the pink candle, sculptured like a rose, that melted in storage." Don't keep things 'for best' - that day never comes. Use them and enjoy them now.0

Hello ladies,
Recent UU for me:
L'Occitane angelica hydration cream sample sachet. This was nice and light. WMBA one day.
Avon argan oil shampoo 250ml. WIBA? This is my current favourite shampoo, but I do want to try others, no longer have an Avon lady
Avon argan oil conditioner 250ml. As above.
Lush candy mountain bubble bar. WIBA? Yep, at sale time, lovely snow fairy scent!
Lush snow fairy 100g. WIBA? Yes, I love this however I think I have close to another litre in the stash!
Right guard shower+oils argan, monoi and almond shower gel 250ml. This is nice, would like to next try the other two variants I've spotted.
INs:
From a boots trip:
Garnier ultimate blends shampoo and conditioner - on a half price offer and won't be stashed too long, have now got the shampoo/conditioner stash under control. (Forget the variant)
Herbal essences clarifying shampoo 400ml. This was on clearance for £1- checked receipt at home and it didn't quite go through as a £1, but hey ho, I will use it.
Also in: 1x dove deo and 1x botanics face scrub. Neither of which were unnecessary, as I operate a one in and one out policy in these areas now
Lush bunch of carrot bubble bar
Lush bunny bubble bar - both belated birthday gifts from my sister
Hope everyone is well0 -
1 UU today: Tresemme Split Remedy Leave in Treatment. Liked it, it does make my hair nice and shiny, but not sure I'd buy it full price again. Has lasted ages for such a little bottle though!New graduate trying to get debt-free.
Make £5/day challenge: August £84.08/155
I owe £5400 (plus £34,000 Student Finance)
