    Hi ladies, sorry I've been AWOL again, work is crazy! Hope all are well.

    My UUs this month:

    1/88. L'Occ Pivoine Flora hand cream 10ml - freebie and WMB, loved the scent.

    2/89. L'Occ Delightful Rose hand cream 10ml - another freebie and probably WNB, other scents I prefer. Nice and rich though.

    3-4/90-91. Sanctuary Mande Lular Body Souffle 100ml x 2 - HG and WDBA, love everything about this!

    5/92. Sanctuary Mela Amla and Cardamom Shower Drench 250ml - WBA but I think this may have been discon, smells gorgeous. I have another stashed.

    6/93. Sanctuary Body Wash 75ml - WNBA, this came in a set and I've decided that whilst I love the scent I'm not such a fan of the consistency.

    7/94. Philosophy Purity cleanser 90ml - HG and WDBA, replaced with same from stash.

    A really quiet month for me on the UU front :(

    Last Thursday finally saw UU number 2 : a Loreal 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner for kids (which I'm sure I bought for my kids, and the youngest turns 24 next month !!)
    Saturday I used the last of the TresEmme shampoo in yet another travel bottle, taking me to UU number 3

    I've now moved on to a (very watery) frequent wash shampoo from Tesc0 which doesn't have much left in the bottle given the size of the bottle, so hopefully that'll be gone soon-ish.

    So total for month is 3 UUs, 0 GAs, 0 TAs and 0 INs
    At least the figures went in the right direction ;)

    Hi everyone, last day of the challenge and I am on holiday so all of my free samples are being used up or saved for the next holiday.
    So please excuse the long post!
    This week UU
    1) Palmers Cocoa Butter Skin Therapy oil - free sample WNBA it's too oily for my skin.
    2) Rituals Honey Touch - WBA I loved it but was a free sample and I have a lot more in my stash
    3) Garnier Ultimate Blends Conditioner - free sample WNBA it was too watery.
    4) BB Thickening Shampoo - free sample. Unsure if I would buy this. It definitely made my hair thicker but dry.
    5) Rituals Magic Touch body cream - loved it WBA
    6) Shower Gel - got as a free sample at the last holiday. Can't buy I wouldn't anyway as it smelt like washing up liquid :eek:
    Unfortunately I have another bottle to use up.

    See you all in July!
