Yay, two UU's from splutterers I'd forgotten were there!
1. Superdrug extracts coconut and sweet almond shampoo. WNBA - just basic, did nothing, and sometimes seemed to leave my hair a little dry and tangled
2. Lee Stafford Breaking Hair conditioner. WMBA - pretty good, lasted well, happy with how my hair was after, though nothing exceptional. I found it on a Boots clearance shelf for £2 and would buy again at that price, but not full price.0 -
Evening all. I had to go in to London today. I had to get the tube. i had to sit in an office that didn't have air conditioning. I don't think I'm being all that over dramatic in saying I'm probably still lucky to be alive. Sweaty, but lucky.
I have a few UUs. I haven't gotten around to making a list, nor have I charted all my INs (there have been a few, I do like to shop to make myself feel better but have generally limited it to makeup brushes or shower gels on offer to 99p).
Radox uplifting grapefruit basil 250ml - liked, not particularly strong but bought it on offer for around £1 so can't complain
Rimmel cc cream sample, I thought I liked this and had found a fab new product, until I broke out really badly.
L'occitane immortelle cream 15ml. From a gift set a couple of Christmasses ago. Love the divine cream but didn't really like this. It felt too heavy and claggy on my skin.
Liz earle cleanse and polish 100ml pump, love especially at this time of year. Another in the stash ready to go.
Colgate toothpaste no clue which type, big tube though and have toned more to use. On to a different brand soon.
I need recommendations ladies. The L'occ was the last of my moisturisers and I'm about to run out of my lacuna serum. Any moisturiser recommendations on the cheap end of the scale before I go for Avene light?
I'm also obsessed with the urban decay naked palettes (I know, how late to the party?). Which one should I get? I'm pale, pinky toned skin, strawberry blonde. None of my eyeshadows are pigmented enough or are just plain old (I haven't bought any eyeshadow in over a year so I'm planning on throwing the whole lot away. Some are 5+ years old, ugh).0 -
One UU today.
1. Superdrug Simply Pure Spot Clearing Facial Scrub- Decent. Would buy again if available.
A few OUTS
1. Rimmel Kate Lipstick
2. Rimmel Makeup Remover.
3. Rimmel Blusher
4. Rimmel Highlighter
5. Rimmel Eyeshadow
All Brand New given to teen sister.
6. Perfume sold online.
I forgot to report 4 ins last month.
Model co eyeliner in black, blue and a peachy lipgloss ..all free in magazines. I ran out of dark eyeliner (keep a spare in purse for touch ups etc) so bought them and didnt really need the lipgloss...but since I heard someone raving about it having a mirror etc I bought it. Fourth item was a revlon nearly naked foundation from poundland. Havent even swatched it yet because the weather is killing me and I'm not really in a mood to use foundation.0 -
First 2 up of July:
Tesco girlz only party nights dry shampoo - WBA I like this scent and it does a nice job. A HG item I've had quite a few of these dry shampoos.
Dove go fresh cucumber & green tea roll on - WBA one off pp list. Smells nice and does a great job.No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries 2015/2016/2017/2018

Moisturiser - for cheap and cheerful have a look at nivea! Nivea plain (in a dark blue pot or tin) if you have dry skin, or nivea soft for normal skin. I've used and loved both - and I'm currently using the plain one very happily.
Naked palettes - ah they really are amazing! I've got Naked 2 and Smoked, and use both loads! There's a comparison between all 3 Naked palettes here which is pretty good - maybe go for Naked 3 for you?
