Hola Beauty Queens :wave:

I've had a 'mare today; didn't get around to colouring my hair earlier in the week so when I got home from work I washed my makeup off and slathered my hairline in Vaseline, opened the bathroom cupboard and… NO HAIRDYE!! :eek: I could look on the positive side and think, this is real NBUT progress, to actually run out of something but my glass is half empty* and I'm cheesed off that I didn't notice before I was makeupless and slimy, otherwise I could have run to Boots. Ah well, I have washed my hair and on the plus side, there's definitely only one more use left in both my poo and dish

*True fact, I have started on the cider already

PP update next:

Superdrug Naturally Radiant Day Cream
Lacura Restorative Eye Cream
Balance Me Cleanse and Smooth Face Balm
Garnier Moisture Match Ultra-Hydrating Rich Cream
Meaningful Beauty Wrinkle Smoothing Capsules
Estee Lauder Perfectionist Serum
Vichy Dermablend Corrective Foundation
TBS Vitamin E Moisture Mask sachet
Vichy Idealia Serum sample sachet
Vichy Idealia Eyes sample sachet

I slathered my feet in the Garnier cream because it's just too rich for my face now and I got a couple of weeny spots from using it as night cream.

The Vichy samples -- as soon as I applied the face one, it started to BURN and I had to wash it straight off. Of course, that meant I threw the eye one away, right?! NO, I slapped it on regardless and OH MY GOD it was terrible, my eyes were burning, streaming and red as a red thing with sunburn. Until now I have never really understood the point of sachets, I have never ever been impressed enough with one to make me want to go and buy the full size but now I get it Sampler beware!

A few more UU too
Dove Cream bar; WDBA, HG
Rituals Himalaya Wisdom Body Scrub ; WBA if I could but they've changed the formula and I'm not as fond of the new one. Still a big pot left in m'stash though
Disposable Razors; WNBA, I am now using the Aldi 5 blade replaceable thingy and much prefer it
Dove Bodywash, Pomegranate and blahblah; WNBA, this was a Christmas gift and I was underwhelmed
Ricci Ricci EDP; WDBA, love this, thankfully DH bought me a replacement for Christmas

And finally, two INS
Organix Moroccan Argan Cream Poo and Dish; EverWhatever stuff is almost finished and it wasn't on offer when I was in superdrug so I thought I'd give this a whirl instead. Nice big bottles, SLS free and under a tenner for the two :money:

We are off out tonight to see an Oasis tribute band and away to the rugby tomorrow so I need to get my hair shipshape before DH gets home.

Have a lovely weekend! xx

Finished my Maybelline superstay concealer. Looks like it's been updated to the "stay fresh" concealer, it's the same type of packaging. I had my replacement ready from the previous week.

Two more uu's for me, I'm on a roll today:

Clarins Tonic Body Oil 30ml - this was a GWP and it is really nice but I prefer butter/cream/lotion to oil. I did mix it with my regular body lotion and just used it on my upper body.

L'occitane Vineyard Rose Ultra Rich Body Cream 100ml - this was one of those at the till special purchases, it cost very little, I really enjoyed it and would happily use again but would not pay L'occ prices for it.

thanks for the tips dolly
asajj weleda birch cellulite oil is great. I have so little faith in this kind of thing but I cracked after reading another blog post about it and decided to try, and it really does seem to make a difference. I love the smell of it too. I stopped stocking up a while ago because no one ever sees my wobbly bits anymore, so it saved some money. The only downside is the glass bottle - thumbs up for being easy to recycle, but glass+bathroom surfaces+oil=health and safety nightmare!
UU - evodia soy candle, amber and musk
IN - pantene youth protect conditioner

Another UU, another bottle of super drug pro mouthwash the sensitive one. HG product WBA.

A couple more UU for me, coming thick and fast this month...

- Boots extracts cranberry sugar scrub- rubbish only had it because it was part of a Christmas set brought for the shower gel and body butter, should probably use any others for raffles etc but I keep giving them another chance.

- Wilko aloe vera lip balm, love these and so cheap:-)

Finally got round to finding this month's thread.
Hello all and thank you for being such a prolific poster ValM, one click on your name and 'find more posts by Valm' in March's thread and there you were on this thread.

Ah it's only because I was off work and the weather was poor. Now I'm back at work I have a few days worth of posts to catch up on.

1 UU Soap And Glory Hand Food Cream. I keep hand creams at my drawer at work as the soap at toilets are very drying so I have gone through another one of them.
This cream is just okay - I never get along well with S&G products and only buy then now and then if there is a promo.

Me too. The soap at work is awful. I have a bottle of Molton Brown White Mulberry and Thyme on my desk at the moment. Have just opened a big tube of S&G Dream cream at home. Smells the same as Hand Food. Has the formula improved, I wond.
