No I don't work for lush, but have been a customer for about 10 years.

Morning Ladies.

I had ins as predicted yesterday

Bourjois So Laque Nail Polish in Fashion Gris Gris - this is a really gorgeous colour and a complete dupe for Chanel Tenderly.

Nails Inc Alexa Cashmere - DD also had a manicure at the Nails Inc counter and we got a gift set with 3 mini polishes, I can't remember the names but there was a pink, a grey/blue and a nude.

Smashbox 3D Waterproof Eyeliner in Sparks - I have wanted this for ages.

Stila Dare to Bare Palette - this is one of three palettes which are exclusive to M&S I think, they have 6 eyeshadows, a shimmer and a bronzer. It is soooo pretty.

Lush Mask of Magnaminty - I got the small pot and tried it out last night, it smells really nice and my skin felt soft after, I will see if it helps with breakouts.

Waitrose Baby Bottom Butter x 2

Charlotte Tilbury Quad in Golden Goddess
Charlotte Tilbury Colour Chameleon in Dark Pearl

I was very over excited to find out that Harvey Nichols stocked Charlotte Tilbury, I have been coveting the above for an age but wanted to see them in person. I also got some sachets of foundation from the range too.

I got a free sample of the new Bare Minerals serum foundation and a sample of the Origins Cleansing Oil.

This shopping trip could have been a lot, lot worse as me and DD spent quite a long time in Kiko which is a fantastic budget make up brand.

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.

You are lucky. I never get offered beauty stuff on Vine. I just keep getting offered baby stuff, dog food and incontinence pads even though I don't have a baby, dog or incontinence!

Two UUs

12) L'Occitane hand cream. WNBA as I have super dry hands and I finished the tube in a week which makes it VERY expensive.

13) Lush Snow Fairy shower gel. I love this scent, but I could not justify spending this much on a shower gel again.

UU today:

- Soap and Glory Scrub of Your Life - WNBA - not 'rough' enough for me and I'm not keen on the scent of S&G products.

Tally: 49 products

UU a L’Occitane Cherry Blossom Hand cream. My fav and already have replacements, really dry hands at the moment o getting through it a little too quickly for my liking.

I'm alone this weekend so I carried everything to living room and I will do a good sorting-throwing away-selling etc. I'm hoping to come back with a summary report on Monday :rotfl:

You have inspired me ladies, thanks!

Completed and I'm not feeling well now :eek:

TA :
- 2 Revlon Nail polishes
- Cocoa butter mini bottle
- Simple Moisturizer 100 ml - wasn't very moist anymore!
- A lot of hair bands :rotfl:
- Quick Nail Polish Wipes - never really liked them. Makes fingers greasy and not great to remove polishes.
-P20 sunscreen, was open too long and never liked the texture.

PP: (my target for February)

-Mavala Travel size nail polish remover. No travel on sight and only a little left in the bottle. Will UU and then recycle!
-Faith in Nature Moisturizer, using as hand cream - not bad but not the best.
-Elegant Touch Rapid Dry for Nails, have two cans of the same and both are half-used (surprise :rotfl: !!).
-Olay Instant Hydration Day Serum, bought for travelling before and not much left of it. I like it actually.
-ROC Make Up Remover Milk. Will UU and WNBA.

Put my samples into a separate bag and intend to use them as much as I can.

PYN - After hard work, I treated myself and painted my nails with Mavala Marrakech (98). What a lovely color! Never used this brand before so will see how long this will last.

Also a lot of recycling done!

Lastly, I have identified around 15 items to sell. I sent a request to join a FB group and waiting still but also list items on Ebay.

Not managed to sell any this week.

Evening all! Some UUs for me:

Love & Wilde Vanilla and Honey Body Butter 50ml: This is arguably the best smelling product I have ever tried and it seems to be a seasonal product as I can't find it online anymore WBA if it's made again!
Love & Wilde Vanilla and Honey Moisturising Foam Bath 100ml: We haven't got a bath in our flat so I repurposed this as hand wash so I could enjoy the smell all day
EOS Blueberry Acai Lip Balm: I LOVE EOS lip balms - HG! DH is currently in the US and has picked up loads for me so I will have some INs when he returns!
Superdrug Soft Skin Nourishing Body Lotion 250ml: Really rich and moisturising but the lotion is a bit too runny. Picked up for 15p as they are discontinued and I have 4 more in the hoard!

Plumpudding

A nice Sunday evening UU: Honeystreet Handmade Rose Garden Bath Bomb. A Christmas present. WMBA - lots of rose petals to get stuck in the plug hole...
White Company soap from hotel stay, so only a small one.

Think I've set myself a target of one UU every other day in Feb (samples allowed). Kind of on target so far.

asajj: I really like Mavala. I only have a couple of shades but they are some of my favourites and quite hard wearing. They go on nicely.
