    Lankygirl, don't make the mistake I made with angel, I had a big bottle which I recycled when it was empty then found out that you can have them refilled in the shop which is cheaper than buying a complete new bottle! Could have kicked myself.

    Morning all and welcome to the new people in the thread,
    Got a few spluttered over the weekend but nothing UU yet.
    No ins either which is good
    SPC~12 ot 124

    In a world that has decided that it's going to lose its mind, be more kind my friend, try to Be More Kind

    Poppy - if it's any consolation my list would be longer :eek: You have some lovely things so enjoy using them up as much as possible :)
    skin. (The new versions are no where near as good :()

    thanks it doesnt seem that much when i see it all stored away :o
    i have a plan im gonna hammer into the samples first (but keep some back in case going away and need some minis) and get them down
    the make up i cant really do anything about - as it is im pretty much wearing a full face everyday for work but im using the same eyeshadows/lipsticks every day
    also i think im gonna get rid of some of the black eye liner - its not something i really wear but theres plenty of people in work i can pass it on to will keep the brown pencils as can use them for eye brows
    i keep saying this but i need to get into a habit of using body lotion once i get into that habit i will quickly get thru it all (well say the rest of the year)
    nails will get painted on a monday and removed on a sunday night only changing colour during the week if i have something on at the weekend

    Welcome Macaron - you makeup list may rival mine:rotfl:.

    Willowbee - my first high end foundation was Prescriptives too, I totally loved it and then the whole brand disappeared. I wanted to add it to my list but couldn't remember the name as it is so long ago, thanks for reminding me.

    roguey - sorry to hear you are having a hard time with your mum's house, it is lovely of you to take the dog in, a big commitment on your part.

    Poppy - I wear a full face of makeup everyday too but never seem to make a dent in the blooming stuff.

    sam - :eek: to the blocked drain.

    I have a couple of uu

    Lancome Advanced Genefique 7ml - this is the last of 4 of these which in mls is about a full size I expect, it did an amazing job on two small patches of discoloration I had near my eye from using Liquid Gold (despite using sunscreen) I have replaced it with a 5ml tube of the regular Genefique and I also have a full size Dreamtone to use.

    Gok Gorgeous Body Lotion 50ml

    My beauty resolution for the year is to use body lotion more often. It's one of the things that I like buying most but use the least! :wall:

    My list of Christmas/sale ins was very long but thankfully doesn't take much space. The REN skincare all fitted into a smallish bag that came with one of the set :D

    Welcome Macaron - you makeup list may rival mine:rotfl:.

    I think mine may rival both of yours, especially in the eyeshadow department!

    Hope everyone had a good weekend; I've got 4 UU's to report

    - OGX Macadamia Shampoo: WBA, love that this is SLS free and it's kept my hair looking very healthy despite not being cut for almost a year!

    - OGX Macadamia Conditioner: WBA for the same reasons as above

    - Balance Me Wonder Eye Cream: WBA, got as a sample with BB and it's lovely

    - La Roche Posay Anthelios SPF 50: HG, wear it every day, really need to repurchase this week


    In addition to the above, everything else is spluttering this week. And when I say everything I really do mean it - cleansers, toner, foundation, shower gel, deo, toothpaste, face powder, primer, eyeliner. Don't really have much spare cash this month so after pay day I'll be making an epic trip to Boots to stock up! Have already started making a list and am determined to stick to it.

    Welcome Mrs Rodgers and macaronvanille, and welcome back Kiss Prudence and wondercollie!

    Dolly the item I miss the most is MAC Select Sheer Studio Finish Looser Powder in NW15 - this was the perfect shade for me, I'd worn it since I was 15 and then they discontinued it :eek: Nothing else comes close. I managed to find it again in Hong Kong 5 years ago and stocked up (but not sufficiently) and now I'm onto my last one - which is only brought out for special occasions as a result :(

    sam - eek to the drain, I'm not at all handy so would have been in full on panic mode at that!

    Loving reading all of the lovely lists of gifts and stashes!

    I have some UUs from the weekend:

    6. Tigi Bed Head Control Freak Shampoo 400ml - liked this, WBA but no need as I have another two stashed.

    7. Tigi Bed Head Control Freak Conditioner 750ml - as above - and another stashed. I have another three 750ml bottles of different types of Tigi conditioner, and have to say I'm kinda regretting them - even though they worked out the same price as buying one normal size - I just get so bored!

    Several splutterers / tubes cut open so hoping this will be a good month!
    MFW 2017 #123 2018: £1,852.64/£39,200 (4.7%)
  • Naughty step for me. I had a (two) moment(s) of weakness and ordered the following:

    Diane Von Faustenberg EDP
    One Direction, You & I EDP (I know, I know)
    Ciates Mini nail polishes - Bright orange and sequins

    UUs:
    Cotton wool pads
    Along Came Betty Hands that Do Dishes hand cream - WMBA, surprisingly good.
    M & S White Floral EDT - WMBA, if on special offer as it gives a fresh floral scent. Great for every day use but it doesnt last long.

    PP:
    SpaceNK Tuberoli EDT
    Victoria Secret Sexy Dare EDP
    Barry M Pink nail polish
