Which hot cloth cleanser have you started using? I have some Liz Earle in my stash and do really like it but really could do with finding a cheaper alternative.

No 7 - it's early days but so far so good! Got it with a voucher so pretty good value. I've heard people on here saying the super drug one is pretty good (possibly fizz whizz but I've not personally tried that one

seasideDreamer

Back from Belgium and have a few more UU:
Extracts scrub gel mango and nectarine- WNBA Not very scrubby
LUSH Comforter bubble bar- Love this
Wilko face wipes- Great value

Unforunately I came back with just as many INs but they were freebies BF picked up! Nerium AD day & night cream and firming cream. Don't think I'll have to buy anything next month:)

I thought my ears were burning! Yes, I'm using the Superdrug Naturally Radiant HCC, on my second tube and I like it a lot; I feel my full face of makeup is completely removed and it isn't overly drying. That said, tomorrow I'm going to visit the new Asda which had just opened near me and I'm tempted to try the nspa range, word on the street is it's 2 for £8 so I might try their HCC next.

The beauty grass is always greener…!

Eta: hope you had a lovely time in Belgium seasidedreamer and I hope kadison has had fun in bath this weekend too

I have had quite a few naughty ins this month
Maybelline baby lips the cherry one - I'm disappointed with this. It's an ok balm but not a patch on the carmex moisture plus sticks. They have more intense longer lasting colour. And they are more moisturising and you can get them for £1. It goes ok over my mua lip tint so ill use it up but I wouldn't buy again

A white foundation so I can mix my foundations and bb creams to stop me looking orange. The joys of being super pale, even the bourgeois healthy mix in the lightest shade is noticeably too dark for me. I love the manic panic one, I can even wear it on its own. Will definitely repurchase.

Dr jart bb cream - completely the wrong colour so is now on ebay. Pale my !!!

Maybelline colour tattoo - on and on bronze. This is a great base I really like it with my nyx naturals palette. It lasts forever.

Solait 50spf mattifying face fluid. This was on offer £1.99. I really like it and it means I can wear my foundations that have little or no SPF

Body lotions - derma vita cocoa butter - very cheap at £1. It's not the best thing I ever used but I quite like it

Another poundland one I think it's called squeaky clean. The packaging is a total soap and glory rip off but I really like it for after the shower. Will repurchase definitely

Shower gels.
I'm not sure how but I ran out. I got 2 original source for £1 each
Shea butter and honey which is a repurchase, I love it. Coconut which smells divine
Also Nivea I think it's acacia berry. It smells divine anyway and was 99p

This month I have used up a revlon bb cream. I have repurchased but the last two gave split after a few months so I'm looking at other options

I've used up loads of cotton pads and a pack of tea tree cleansing wipes

I have hit pan on my seventeen miracle matte powder. I might get another month out of this though. I love this it's a great powder but I'm going to try the NYC pressed powder next time as it is super pale.

I have used up a cherry and almond superdrug shower gel - would not repurchase too sweet for me
Have also nearly finished a tea tree and mint original source one. Love this, have repurchased loads of times

Have nearly used up a tre semme hair mask that I've had for years, don't like it. It doesn't seem to do anything. I have a new mask for a different brand to try next but I can't remember what brand and CBA to get up and look for it.

Well this is unusual, 1st of the month and no new thread.... :eek:

Oh I had fun at the show alright, it was great! Of course I paid for it this morning when I got up and could barely move my foot! It's started tingling sometimes as well, which either means it's healing or about to drop off!

Trying not to obsess with not hearing from blokie for 3 whole days, why is dating such an emotional minefield?!

Got a Domino's order on the way so that should do it to some extent! :rotfl:

Welcome back dolly and seasidedreamer, hope you had fab holidays.

Just sneaking in with some final UUs from yesterday:

117. Benefit Bad Gal mascara mini - started to seem dry and has been open a few months so time to move on. Quite like this but I have enough mascaras to last me several years.

118. Elemis Nourishing Hand & Nail Cream 20ml - GWP, probably WNB given price and my current hand cream stash (same situation as the mascaras!) but I do like this - very rich without being greasy or sticky.

Three UUs to finish the month:

Sanctuary Spa body scrub
Champneys Bath Float (used as shower gel)
Kate Moss body lotion

Off to June!

Always feel like I must sound like a broken record but find the S&G hand cream goes off really quickly :mad: and when it does it smells awful.
Been trying to get the free McD's ice drink, has anyone got it to work been singing along and my % is dropping each time

It's based on the pitch rather than the words so if you can't do it singing you can just hum the tune and it should work then when you do get through make sure you click the little circle at the bottom for terms and conditions (you will see what I mean)

Some naughty ins, got a new car so simply had to take it for a test run to the nearest boots.....

Got university final year ball at the end of this week so bought dove summer glow in medium to dark (I'm very pale but not long to build it up!) and a lip liner from rimmel in black tulip to go with a lipstick I'm wearing on the night. Also got Essie's mint candy apple, not for the ball just because I've wanted it since the dawn of time and have got it as a revision treat!
