Well... I definitely don't need any more shower gel this year. Amazon offered me some Aussie shower gel, sold in a six pack, I expected one bottle as that's the norm with multi-packs sent for trial by Vine reviewers. I got six bottles and thankfully it's a nice fragrance - Shower Smoothie (that's the name of the flavour) . There are three other scents, two of which appear to be unisex, Fresh Mate, (eucalyptus) and Mega Watt (ginseng). There's a jojoba one too, No Rush.
Shower Smoothie is macadamia oil, but the fruity smell - which is artificial - reminds me of pink bubblegum, which I quite like.Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again... I would have burned the pink candle, sculptured like a rose, that melted in storage." Don't keep things 'for best' - that day never comes. Use them and enjoy them now.0 -

I hope you are feeling back to your normal self soon Fiasco55.
I have a TA - Style and Grace Body Lotion. I've never heard of the brand before and I received it as a gift. It has made my skin dry and itchy. I will see how I get on with the matching shower gel but I may end up getting rid of that too.Thank you to everyone who posts on here0 -
Hi ladies,
I have quite a few GA as i've had a clear out this week!
As follows:
Dalmacija No.1 facial exfoliator - this didn't help my redness and I haven't noticed not using it - hopefully my friend will have more success!
Sk:n aloe vera gel and SPF 30 sunscreen- GA to my Dad as he gets sunburnt really easily so this is great for the summer. Got from where i've been having laser hair removal.
L'oreal micellar eye make-up remover - Not too keen, don't think it worked that well. I tried to repurpose as a cleanser but flared up redness.
Sanctuary spa moisture spray - this just doesn't work for me, not moisturising enough and i don't like the smell.
Rimmel fake tan x 2 & St Tropez small tube - never used and probably never will so my friend who fake tans a lot is having these
L'oreal nutri gloss shine spray - haven't got long hair anymore and this weighs it down
Frizz-ease dream curls spray - My hair isn't long enough to curl and even when it was i never used this spray!
Leo bancroft tousled spray - never used so GA
Unknown cheap brand illuminating face primer - acquired this from somewhere, can't remember where! Never used so GA
Laura Mercier illuminating tinted moisturiser - this was one of my faves before i found the Chanel CC cream which I love. This has a great effect but is hard to work in to your face unless you have a really rich moisturiser/primer underneath (and you still have to blend really well!) there's only a small amount left so i've given to my friend to try and see what she thinks.
Elizabeth Arden radiant skin lotion - given to my mum - quite a nice product but doesn't give any coverage more just a bit of a glow
Lush hot toddy shower gel - not keen on the smell (smelled like chilli flavour jelly beans)
TA Benefit 'they're real' eyeliner sample- really didn't like this. Tried a few times but just couldn't get on. It was a magazine sample so can't imagine there would be much product left anyway.
I also have UU
Clinique redness solutions cleanser and moisturiser - They always run out at the same time which I guess is a good thing?
I'm thinking of trying the coconut oil cleansing method with an apple cider vinegar toner...has anyone on here tried this already?
I'd like to save some money as the cleanser is £18 and lasts about 6-7 weeks whereas a tub of coconut oil would last a lot longer and is also chemical free.
and 1 IN:
Benefit rollerball mascara - freebie from Mag - not sure what i think to this? Think i prefer they're real mascara...I wouldn't go out my way to buy again or recommend.
Hope everyone is having a good weekend :-)0 -
evening everyone. Some UUs: Roger and Gallet Fruit de Figuiers scent - came from LIB advent calendar. Quite nice but WNBA, not really my thing.
Bee Good Honey and Water Mint 3 in1 cleansing water. This was from a beauty box. WNBA as it left me with lots of little bumps just below the surface on my forehead. Never really feel like I get all my make up off properly just with a cleansing water but it seems too much to use it PLUS then a proper hot cloth or foaming cleanser. Pleased that one's gone now!
Iroisie BB cream - sachet. Think this was a sample from Naturisimo. Bit odd as it looked completly the wrong colour when first on, then kind of settled in and was fine. WMBA.
Enjoy your evenings ladies.0
