    Some more uu's -

    Aqua fresh mild and minty toothpaste - liked this, not too strong (I'm not keen on mint at all really so I liked that this was mild) and it did the job okay. WBA at some point. Moved onto a different one I had stashed to get it used up first.

    Treacle moon cinnamon bath and shower gel - liked the scent of this but I did get bored of it in the end. It's a generous sized bottle so it lasts for ages, and I bought it when it was only 1.99 on offer so really good value for money. Smelled lovely in the bath but it turned the water red, looked like you'd bled in it!! :eek: WMBA next winter, it's a Christmassy scent IMO.

    Bomb cosmetics glitter balls bath creamer- the 2nd of the two I had, liked the scent. WMBA.

    First sample UU

    Liz Earle Bergamot and Ginger Silky Body Lotion (15ml) - love the texture and effect of this. A little goes a long way. Dislike the scent (smelt of grapefruit to me). WMB in a different scent once I've used up a decent amount of lotions...

    Now I love this product and have the full size. Am planning on using it today along with the matching shower gel.

    I had a sample of the Jasmine one and was not overly keen on that.

    Have just used this and MRM said "you smell nice. Smell like grapefruit ". You obviously both have more discerning noses than me.:rotfl:

    IN:
    Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara mini, Chocolate Soleil Bronzer[SIZE=-1][/SIZE] mini, Shadow Insurance Primer[SIZE=-1][/SIZE] mini, La Cr!me Lipstick in 'Naked Dolly' mini via the 'Love Me Beauty' box being plugged by TalkBeckyTalk on YouTube. Think it cost me about £10 after her discount code (and me adding an extra sample) - but I'd happy spend £10 on a small kit of those products as I'll use them all (and handy for travelling).

    OUT:
    Bought myself a new Emma Hardie cleansing balm on the M&S 20% off day - I can't justify £28 for a cleanser anymore and I need to get that in my head so I'm going to return it today.

    PS I've got about 3 unopened Aussie conditioners - I think I must have gotten a good deal on sets including a shampoo because I don't like the conditioner - are they of any use to anyone here?
