Sam I will get a list of the bath bombs and lush stuff up as soon as I can. Been on nights at work and I'm shattered but got 4 days off now yay :T so can sort a list out soon for you :-) and hopefully have a few baths and get some used up!

You really don't have to, i do love looking at lists but enjoy your 4 days off and chill. I have this week off:T have a fair bit of work to do here but boy do I need some R&R.

INS ( I think I did mention before that was the first permanentmember of the naughty step)
9 products from meme
I am also proud that I managed to go to TKmax and not purchase any beauty related things, I did buy a box to house stuff in as I have ran out of room. Should I really cofess that I spent an hour yesterday sticking use by date labels on creams and potions ( I know it really sad).

UU's
Christmas Eve bubble bar WNBA do not like the scent

Penguin bubble bar WNBA do not like the scent hence it was used this week as I had a cold and could not really smell anything.

BS camamile cleansing butter WBA made getting waterproof mascara off a doddle.

Snowcake soap 100g WBA still one of my favourites

Lagoon soap WNBA the esential oil blend seems to have gone off and it did not smell very pleasant so it will be grated to make washing powder.

Snow body cream WNBA from meme but took alot of rubbing in to get it to sink in.

Theorie ardon oil ultimate hair mask WNBA this was from TKmax and I cant find this anywhere I did not like it as a deep conditioner so I used it before shampooing.

Vit C face mask WBA worked well and fit well.

Syn-ake 3d face mask WNBA the strangest shaped mask I have used. It would fit beautifully if I had a really pointed nose and forehead otherwise you would have to cut the mask to flatten it so it fit.

Blackhead mask WNBA I thought the above was strange but 3 different masks to use on your nose over an hour was not my idea of fun. The second mask was covered in black leaving me looking like I had been up a chimney.

Pantene youth protect conditioner 400ml WBA like it enough to repurchase at some point.

BS ginger shampoo 250ml WBA HG for me, but really dont need to purchase as I have a supply that should last me into 2016.

lancome hydra zen night cream 15ml WBA I have actually grown to really like these but would only repurchase if there was a good GWP offer.

L'oreal mythical oil (rich) 125ml WBA LHJ:T:T:T really pleae to have finally finshed it, the only problem is I want another bottle but hopefully will hold off till I have used up others.

Malus intensive hair treatment WNBA from meme and did not do a great deal for my hair.

John Paul G clasique perfume WNBA this was what I called my signature scent from my late teens till late 20's but taste change and this bottle has got to be 5 years old or more.

I bought the Liz Earle TSV yesterday. Given that we use the cleanser, toner & moisturiser and that these were full size (with the C&P being super size) it was great value and we'll need some C&P soon. Emma can try the other products. I don't like the treatment products myself.

This made me chuckle.

No stash movement here at the moment.

Yesterday I was out shopping for family bits and bobs and here is a list of the things I had a good um and ah over before putting back down:

W7 pallette - this is a copy of the Naked palettes and are just £5.49 I think, why would I want it when I already have the Naked, Naked 2, Naked Basics, Naked Basics 2, Makeup Revolution's copy of Naked 3 and the MUA copies of the Naked palettes????????????????

Collection Eyes Uncovered Palettes - Just £3.99, they looked lovely but as above.

A W7 Nude Basics Palette only £1.99 but OMG what is wrong with me?

Sanctuary - some sort of balm which I keep looking at and putting down every time I go in Boots.

It is a result that I came home with nothing.

Sam.4000 - I too had such a giggle at your description of the face masks:rotfl:

ValM - belated birthday greetings, just catching up on posts:D I was so tempted by the LE TSV, common sense prevailed as a) I am not sure if I can use C&P with my hyper sensitive skin now, b) I have both IBST and moisturiser waiting to be used, c) I react badly to Eyebright:(, I used to love it when I did a lot of computer work. The only product I wanted (not needed) was the Gentle Exfoliator as I have finished mine, but have various other things to be used first anyway! I hope that the sore throat does not develop into anything more.

Dolly84 - you have a lovely collection of eye palettes, I am constantly tempted, but as I seem to only use two shades of grey (no not 50:o) ATM I have to just look, there are so few colours that look good on me now that buying individual shadows or the sets of 4 is the best way for me. Well done on returning empty handed:T

One UU:

PP Space NK Tuberoli EDT - WNBA, pleasant smelling but nothing special and the scent did not last long. Happy enough to pay £6 but imo was not worth the original price of £35.

In:Ciate cuticle oil from TK Maxx

TA: Bristow hairspray. Wont come out the can so totally useless.

I also found my favourite lip crayon and lip balm I had lost/forgotten about so wont have to buy anything else for now.

Belated happy birthday Valm!

I'm on a Valentine's mini break down to your neck of the woods. Even had a turn around the Trafford centre yesterday.

Had a bathroom meltdown on Thursday it's been three weeks and I've told them to take the botched tile job down and to get my rocking shower tray sorted. Ended up complaining to my insurance and meet with the boss of the contractor company. Fingers crossed it all gets sorted and I'm completely stressed out. So much so that it wanted to cancel this weekend away. But I'm glad we went away. My fella bought me a beautiful bouquet of flowers and an orchid.

Anyway back on topic. UU Aaron Aromtics citrus shower gel. Nice and have another 6 bottles to use.

UU - Organic surge eye gel - WMBA - easy to use gel wasn't very expensive, nothing super special but would maybe buy again.

Molton brown gingerlily, pink pepperpod, black peppercorn body lotions- all 100ml so only used for a couple of applications. My fave is pink pepperpod and i would probably repurchase as the smell of the lotion stays all day and its an effective moisturiser.

Ren rose otto shower gel - WBA - love this scent but have a few other shower gels to use first.

Eve Lom kiss mix - i really persevered with this lip balm but it honestly did nothing for me so with about 20% of the pot to go it got chucked!

I also had a few INS yesterday from TK Maxx
Decleor systeme corps body lotion 400ml - bargain at £25, normally this price for the 250ml so chuffed with that.
Theorie green tea hair mask and grapefruit conditioner - i've got a few theorie shampoos/conditioners on the go at the moment and really like them so thought i'd buy some more while I saw them.
Cant remember who it was on the thread who said they could only find this brand in TK Maxx and i've had the same experience, not even on the internet really. Very strange!

Hope all are having a nice weekend...i'm procrastinating and putting off stripping the beds/washing/tumble drying etc hahaha

A belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY! to you, VALM :beer:

I have an IN to declare:

L'Oreal Youth Code Serum (30ml)
This was on my wishlist and I stumbled across it reduced to around £8 at Tesco. So far I prefer the L'Oreal Revitalift 10 serum to this. (The Revitalift one reminded me very strongly of Lancome Genifique. When I looked it up people said the Youth Code was a better dupe for Genifique but I'm not convinced so far.)

Thankfully my UUs are going better this month!

16. Tresemme Platinum Deep Conditioning Treatment (180ml) - HG conditioner for me. I buy it when it's half price and use it like a normal conditioner.

17. Kerastase Bain Satin 1 (30ml) - nice to try this but WNB as it didn't do anything special to my hair

18. Kerastase matching conditioner (20ml) - WNB as not moisturising enough.

19. Balance Me Radiance Face Oil (30ml) - possibly my HG face oil. WBA but fortunately I have three 10ml rollerballs in storage. (The 30ml bottle lasted forwever, in a good way :rotfl:)

20. Eve Lom Rescue Mask (15ml) - WNBA as it seemed to strong. I wasn't keen on the smell either.

21. Dead Sea Spa Salt Brushing (50g sachet) - lovely as a treat but probably WNB.

22. Biotherm Skin-ergetic Anti-Fatigue Moisturiser (15ml) - WNBA. Too greasy so used up on my neck.

I hope that everyone has had a good weekend

I hope that your bathroom is sorted SOON Fiasco!

Dolly - your palette woes made me laugh! I'm tempted by dupes as well even when I have the 'real' thing. It's mad! :rotfl:

Sam - your triple nose mask story made me giggle as well :rotfl:

Has anyone on here bought primark lip balm tins and not been able t open them? I've not added them to my list as I've not been able to open them!! Very nearly chucked them. But I've kept them in the hope my brother can get them open for me when he returns from uni. I managed to get one open once and used once but I wrestled with it for literally ages. Shame as the lip balm itself is really nice and the flavours are nice I've got peach and watermelon. I want to use them but they are good as useless if I can't open the tins!
