Welcome newbies.
Dreamy - I hate applying lipstick with a lip brush so when I can't apply anymore from the bullet I just get rid. It would have to be a HG discontinued colour for me to dig it out.
FizzWhizz - I like bronzer in the crease too which is just as well as I don't get on with it on my face (I'm a pale with pink blush type of girl) and I have 6 bronzers to get through.
I seem to have transferred my buying habits to candles now (always had a problem with them) I have bought 16 candles in the last week:eek:.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

I lie Laura Geller Bronze n Brighten for all over coverage as it's more pinky than terracotta.
I have same problem with candles. Can't light them quicker than I buy them.
Was watching Amber F 4x4 pan vid earlier and going to join in. It's 4 products to UUS or pan by 4 July. I've earmarked:-
Small tube of Clinique foundation (GWP a size)
Bobbi brown shell eyeshadow
Cargo morebello blush
Philosophy the ice cream man gloss.
Anyone else up for this?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!

A few UUs to report from the last few days
Thursday
Tresemme Conditioner I'd decanted into a travel bottle. Was going to replace with another travel bottle I've decanted it into, but then I realised using these doesn't actually give me more space as I keep the bottles. So I pulled out an almost finished full size bottle of a different condtioner.
Friday
Aquafresh Toothpaste (this was in the cloakroom and getting hard to get any out of, so it took it upstairs as I do my teeth up there more). Replaced in the cloakroom with a small Arm & Hammer which has already been started.
Today
Garnier Fructis Condioner (the one I pulled out to replace Thursday's UU - it turned out there was only enough for one use left in it). Need to have a look and figure out which already opened one is now the one with least in to come out and replace it.

I've been bad ladies. Went along to L'Occitane with vouchers for freebie kits for MRM and I and ended up taking advantage of the money off voucher. MRM got a full sized bottle of almond oil shower gel with refill for £35 usual RRP £44 so with voucher was £25. He likes this and we don't have ant in. I got the matching scrub which I've wanted to try for ages and bought the special offer gift set for £15 so we came away with the following:-
Almond oil shower gel and refill
Almond body scrub
Mini verbena shower gel x 2
Mini verbena body lotion x 2
Mini verbena soap x 2
Mini foot cream x 2
Mini cherry blossom hand cream
Mini pivione flora hand cream
£15 kit contains
Mini cherry blossom fragrance
Mini cherry blossom hand cream
Mini almond shower oil
Rose Bon merre soap
Mini almond concentrate
Nice bag
Also got samples of Shea body cream and almond concentrate
Good savings on the things we bought. Between us we spent £59 and got £98 worth of products not counting the freebies we went in for.
Also had 2 L'Occitane GA this week. Gave my friend a 500ml bottle of Shea body lotion and mini shea and vanilla hand cream.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge.

1 UU and 1 IN
UU: Korres almond and linseed shampoo - like this, smells really good and is good for dry hair. Have another one in the stash to use, got from TK Maxx for about £4, think it's normally about £10 so would only buy if I saw it there again.
IN: Clinique smart serum - mag freebie - thankyou to Willowbee (I think it was you!) who mentioned it. I'm using it every day to see if I can see a difference.0
