    UU no 14/ elemis rose and jasmine bath milk 50mls WNBA this was part of a 'set' or GWP I'd never buy it on its own. Didn't do anything for me

    I went for the you beauty for the glam glow and instead of glam glow they sent me the batiste thing :(. The glam glow is still in stock so I complained and apparently the glam glow is on it's way to me now

    Hi all.

    I have uu

    Elemis Skin Nourishing Bath Milk - 400ml, I have had loads of bottles of this from various GWP's, I have one more full size left. It is lovely, makes the water soft and can be used as a body lotion too but it is £39 a bottle so for that reason I WNBA.

    Collection 2000 Illuminating Touch Concealer - WBA, this is fairly old, I think I got it just before they changed the brand to Collection. It is very good.

    That's a fair point well made, but unfortunately I don't think this is the answer for me. Much as KT said, I suspect it's more to do with my skin than anything else, Dermablend is probably the oiliest foundation I've used (I go for matte textures normally) so that's not helping matters, but some days my skin can just "reject" any kind of foundation, it goes on OK but by lunchtime it almost looks as though it's curdled on my face :eek: that's the only way I can think to describe it :o

    I'm wearing cheapie Rimmel Lasting Finish(?) today and aside from the h-u-g-e zit beside my mouth, I'm probably having the best skin day I've had in a month. Go figure.

    I know exactly what you mean about the 'curdled' look - Nars Sheer Glow does this on me. Looks fine when it goes on but when I look in the mirror later on it looks terrible!! Sheer glow is quite oily too and I usually go for matte foundations. I'm surprised the dermablend is oily - you would think they would make it matte to cover acne!

    Two more UUs, one PP, one not...

    150. RMK Cleansing Balm (S 25ml) - WMBA. This was lovely :). I enjoyed using it every time because of the rose scent. It lasted for a long time (fullsize is £29 for 100ml) and I'd consider buying it in the future once my stock of cleansers has gone (far, far into the future! :rotfl:)

    151. Elemis Lip Revive (S 3ml) - the only Elemis product I can think of that has disappointed me. WNB

    The weather has broken here - still warm but big storms on and off. I like storms but I do hope everyone is ok (especially small kiddos) :)

    It's not quite arrived yet but just ordered Organic Surge Blissful Daily Moisturiser. Love this for summer and the price just dropped on Amazon so got one to put in the stash for when the current one runs out!

    The glam glow from you beauty arrived so I've ended up with an extra item from them lol

    Ben up half the night with OH moaning about new gym plan related delayed onset muscle soreness grrrr. Plus my house is turned upside down once again as someone's coming to fit new flooring in my livingroom today. Can't wait till it's done haha
