    Hola Beauty Queens :hello:

    UU #76: Bourjois 123 Perfect Foundation 30ml; WNBA, sometimes I love this and other times it just seems to sit on my face and not blend properly. Plus I have been wearing this every day this week to get it gone and every evening DH has come home and asked me if I'm feeling ok as I look pale; if anything it's a smidge too dark but it's yellow based and just makes me look sallow. I have plenty of other foundations to UU before repurchasing any more, I think I have 9 full size and a few samples stashed :eek:

    Hope people's spots and ulcers are starting to heal. Mine still aren't looking great. Tried to cover them this morning but failed miserably! Felt conscious of them all day.

    Wondercollie how is your collie doing now?

    Kiwisaver I'm incredibly jealous of your GWP, sounds fab! Especially as you practically got it for free.

    I think these AA bath oils are totally overhyped.

    I found the Glamglow mask was brilliant at clearing my skin but it is very expensive.

    I would love to try the glamglow mask, have heard great things about it but the price really puts me off. I am keeping my eye out for any samples.

    Fizzwhizz I always feel like this about various foundations I have. Sometimes I use them and they look fine but other times they just don't work. I have at least 7 full size foundations on the go at the moment. Going to struggle to use some of them up as I don't like them :rotfl:

    Hello beauties,

    I've been away for a bit and haven't posted for a while but have continued to follow the thread!

    Following UU to report

    Champneys moisturising day cream - 50ml. I do like this and will prob buy again, but it never seems to last as long as other brands and you can't cut open the pot to check for left product! (Unless I got a saw out!)

    Dolce and Gabana edt 5ml sample - pleasant enough WMBA

    The Body Shop honeymania body butter - 200ml. Nice enough but there are other scents I prefer. WNBA but would happily use if gifted.

    Crabtree and Evelyn rose water handcream 25ml - got free through the hand cream amnesty. Don't normally like rose scented products but really like this so WBA.

    Now for the bad news.... Im on the naughty step after my trip to boots. Was driving home and had an uncontrollable urge to buy something. I need sunscreen and after sun for my upcoming holiday in June but came out over £30 later with more sun cream and after sun than I needed, shampoo, conditioner, nail polish, lipstick and foundation. So annoyed at myself!!!

    Another UU today, TBS Strawberry Body Polish. WNBA, the smell is really synthetic, nowhere near as nice as their other strawberry stuff and it's not very scrubby.

    Poor me... I have a gigantic throbbing spot which is a red angry lump on my should right under where my bra strap goes. I am not built for braless under any circumstances. That plus a stinking cold :(
