I have a uu

Dr Bronners Citrus Orange 18 in 1 Castille Soap - I had a bit of an obsession with these a while ago, I do still like it but they are very runny and we seem to use a bottle very quickly. This had a spicy citrus smell which I really liked.

My advent in today was Rituals Fortune Scrub Mandarin and Yuzu 150ml.

Last night I applied Organic Extra Virgin Pure Coconut Oil and Pure Argan Oil to my hair, wrapped it in a turban towel and slept with it on, I am just about to go wash in out in the shower, it is the first time I have used these two products and I am hoping for very soft curls.

Hey guys,
Sorry it's been a while!
Worked a lot of overtime the past few weeks and just got back from a break at Centerparcs so not had much time to post but i've just caught up on the thread. Sounds like those with advent calendars are having some lovely ins!

Had ran out of body lotion...well not exactly but found the little molten brown bottles i was using was not encouraging me to use body lotion every day. Bit silly but they're so small and a pain to get out when you're in a hurry.
I love the decleor systeme corps body lotion so I wanted to get some before Centerparcs so i could use it while we were there. John Lewis had a lovely gift set containing the body lotion along with a body scrub, a hydra floral moisturiser, candle, neroli oil and aroma tonic perfume plus she gave me some samples:D
More than i intended to spend on just the lotion but i couldn't resist! and it was quite good value;)
I also found a salon size of the systeme corps on albeauty 1000ml for £31 so i'm considering that for when this one runs out as it's such a nice lotion and i know i'll use it.

I also got given a bottle of Chanel Coco from my Grandma...it's not normally what i would go for but for just 2 sprays lasts ages and it's not too strong so i'm using it sparingly!

After xmas i'm intending to sell some makeup I've never used on eBay as well as a huge pile of stuff i've not got round to selling in December. Definite January job!

I THINK that's all the ins although i haven't been keeping track that well. Also not been keeping very good track of the OUTS...I don't think i've had many:(
I know I GA a champneys bathing milk as I hardly ever have baths and my friend loves them so I made up a bag for her of a few things and this went in it!

Hope everyone gets to spend some nice time off over xmas...let's just wait for the sales now:eek:see how many of us can resist! (it won't be me) lol

Wilko Concealer Brush - these brushes are good and this one looks a particularly good shape for pin point concealing.

I bought one of their Real Techniques replica eyeshadow brushes last month and it is fab.

So like buses, my UUs have been nothing for ages and now 5 come all at once:-

LE C&P 30ml. Staple product and have replaced this with 200ml full sized from stash.

Burts Bees cleanser. I am definitely not buying any more of their products as I just don't rate them. This cleanser was nice enough but not gentle enough to take over my eyes. Stung like billy o when I forgot this fact!

Clinique moisture surge moisturiser. Used this as night cream and loved the way my skin felt in the mornings however didn't like the feel of it on application - felt like silicone. Have replaced this with small tube of Clinique DDML and still have other night creams in the stash to go at for a while.

Lush Melting Snowman bath ballistic - loved this and will definitely look for some on the sales. Same goes for Holly Golightly.

I know there was something else that I UUed but can't remember what it is now. I have however cut open my tube of Elemis Tri-enzyme gel mask so that will go soon too.

One IN and instant UU : L'Oreal Casting Creme hair colour in Mahogany. My roots only needed touching up. Very pleased with the colour and shine.

Annoyed that I can't remember what the other product was that I UUed but sure it will come to me.

Not long now ladies so in case I don't get a chance to post again a very Merry Christmas to you all. Hope that Santa is kind and that you don't end up inundated with more toiletries than you need!! I have a bit of a dilemma now in that I have about 2 or 3 days worth of PCMC left and have told Santa not to get any as I'd look on the sales. If he hasn't and I don't find any on the sales I may be looking 20 years older by the time I return to work in Jan!! x

Yay, it has come to me. 5th UU is a small tube of Elemis Illuminating Flash Balm. Have been using this as a primer as I have no others at the mo. I like it as a product on its own but doesn't give my make up the staying power that Laura Geller Spackle does. Have other tubes of this in my stash but am UUing up a small tube of Clinique CC cream until Santa brings more Spackle.

Today's advent in is a bottle of Maddi Alexander Rose Bath Oil 30ml. I love rose scents and will enjoy using this.

I cut open my hand cream last night so that should be gone soon, I will be sad to see that particular one go though.

No UUs for a while and I have a suspicion that quite a few of my gifts from the in-laws and friends are toiletries/perfume oh dear lol

In case I don't get on here again beforehand, wishing you all a very Merry Christmas x

2 pretty boring UU's this week;

• Castor oil – I mix this in with my cleansing oil, but I don't really know if it makes any difference, so won't buy again unless I miss it!

• Volume hair mousse – Was sent to test so don't know the brand. Pleased to see it go though as the nozzle snapped off ages ago which made it a pain to use. I need a new hair mousse now as I have none in the stash but I can use my mums while I'm at home for xmas and get a new one in the New Year.

two more UUS today, just missed out on the tesco perfume glitch - was a good thing really i guess, otherwise I would have had a lot of ins!

Redken Exteme anti snap conditioner 250ml - WDBA hated it at first but grew to absolutely love this. My hair is looking healthier than it ever has before!

Bare minerals stroke of light deluxe sample - WNBA this really didn't hide my dark circles at all.

Pantene Pro-v One minute wonder ampule - WNBA got a few more loose in my stash, not really sure why or when I bought them but no different to any other cheap conditioner.


Hope everyone has a lovely christmas!
