    I had a couple of ins at the end of June – I went to Glastonbury festival, and didn’t have any travel sized bottles of shampoo or conditioner to decant into, so bought a travel sized Aussie shampoo and conditioner at Tesco on the way, oops. Kind of necessary though – and now I have the bottles I’ll keep re-filling them in future. But I also bought a new serum/oil thing which cost £10 at the same time, as I’d neglected to bring any also. It’s nice though, and will get used at some point, once I get through my other large bottle of hair serum!

    No UU’s recently for me though :(

    But I am planning a pampering night in tonight, with face mask, nail painting, and lots of body lotion to start recovering from the festival (was travelling to London yesterday and back late, so no time!).

    Oooh, and I do have a PP list for this month!
    - Clinique doublewear face powder
    - Nivea cream moisturiser tin
    - Dove (I think!) body lotion
    - Burts bees foot cream
    - Burts bees hand cream
    - REN lipbalm

    How do you find the Peppermint Hair Mask works for you? I don't find it does a thing for my dry hair and I have two full size pots of it, DD has normal hair with greasy roots and it didn't do much good for her either.

    Painted my nails last night in Leighton Denny Supermodel on fingers and Crabtree & Evelyn Wisteria on toes. I love the Wisteria colour but the C&E formulas don't last on fingers so I will just use them up on toes.

    I have two uu's

    James Read Sleep Mask Tan 25ml - I don't use this on my face, I would be too scared to get up in the morning. It gave a nice colour on my arms and legs. Another one in the stash to get used up seeing as the sun is shining and my dresses are getting worn.

    Jimmy Choo Blossom EDT sample - this was very nice but I am not in the market for any more perfume at the moment.

    Now for my ins

    Prada Candy EDP 50ml - this was a lovely and unexpected gift.

    Korres set with shower gel and body milk in Jasmine, Mandarin lip balm and Wild Rose moisturiser. I used my Debenhams beauty points for most of this.

    Does anyone with a Debenhams Beauty Club Card have to regularly chase up missing points. In the past I have had to resort to Facebook to get anywhere with them, the customer services are next to useless?
