    Morning Ladies.

    I have a uu

    Clarins Instant Eye Make up Remover 125ml - WNBA, it does the job but so do many other much cheaper products. It was nice though.

    Another item gone from the PP list: Neutrogena hand cream. This was a real LHJ. WDNBA. Was weird actually as I didn't rate it at first as the tube only distributes a thin worm of product yet when I cut the tube open and could use lashes of it it was quite satisfying.

    Here goes with an update of my list:-

    [STRIKE]Neutrogena hand cream 50ml
    Sainsburys nail polish remover[/STRIKE]
    various foundation sachets/travel tubes
    L'Occitane shea hand cream 30ml
    YSL brown Babydoll mascara
    [STRIKE]Lush Ponche shower gel 100ml
    Shower gel that I brought back from cruise - can't for the life of me remember the brand name[/STRIKE]
    Elemis Frangipani shower cream
    Elemis Gentle Rose Exfoliator
    Decleor Herbal Clay Mask
    Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!

  • Some UUs for me today:

    Boots Extracts Cocoa Butter Body Butter 200ml: Ended up getting very sick of this scent and it didn't sink into my skin very well. Probably WNBA.

    Superdrug Flirty Body Spray 75ml: HG - love this scent so much! WDBA!

    L'Occitane Delightfully Rose & Vanilla Bouquet Hand Creams 10ml: These were the recent freebies given away and I have to say I am quite disappointed. They left my hands greasy and both scents were unbearably floral for my taste. WNB.

    6 INs to report - and it's 6 of the same item !!

    I've been findng the lip salve I started using a few weeks ago is helping, but I never remember to take it out with me and often feel I could use one upstairs if I get up during the night. So (as I was in the vicinity of the discount store where I bought the one to try) I've got one for each of 3 backpacks, 1 for my travel wash bag, 1 for my gym wash bag and 1 for upstairs.

  • Hello
    Did really well with UUs this week:
    Aqualine hair and body gel - from hotel stay
    DHC eye bright gel (sachet) - too little to know the difference
    2x Philosophy Hope in a Jar (sachets) - god it stings if you get it in your eye! I think Philosophy is the brand I have been most disappointed in of all the ones I have wanted to try. I find everything I've tried really artificial and yuk.
    Aveda smoothing conditioner - really good WBA
    Arran Aromatics Eydis shampoo - nice
    Arran Aromatics Bergamot and ginger shower gel - WMBA
    Lavera hand cream (sachet) - couldn;t get excited as unscented
    Avene tissue off cleanser - really nice but I think I prefer a hot cloth
    Random hotel body cream

    I was very pleased with all that.... and then the british beauty blogger latest in beauty box arrived. And that cancels out all the UUs.

    Another uu today - sanctuary shower cream. WNBA really didn't like it and glad to see the back of it.

    Now onto a new lovely Jason's shower cream instead.

    *Zooms in*

    Hi everyone!

    Right, 2 UUs:

    Mitcham 48 Hour Protection Deodorant/B]
    Boots Extracts Mango Sugar Scrub (200ml): got this as part of a set in the -70% Boots sale. I would have been SO disappointed i f I had payed any more for it....plasticy, overly coloured, smelled a bit of mango but not that much...cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap!

    Hope you are all well. xxx

    Just finished the bottle of B. Pure Micellar Water - I think I got this last year as part of a deal from Superdrugs and not really liked it when I first used. Then decide to give it another go. It is not bad although I'm not sure whether it is a WBA.
