    My July PP list:

    1) Lush American cream hair conditioner
    2) Hit pan on 1 eyeshadow
    3) Use up 10x in my bath stash
    4) lush snowcake soap
    5) lush honey I washed the kids soap
    6) lush reindeer soap
    7) lush yog nog soap
    8) 1x shampoo
    9) Chanel eyebrow pencil
    10) 1x Dior lipgloss

    Do you like the American Cream conditioner, I have it and find it a bit odd, I apply and it sort of disappears and does very little?

    Roguey - I like Olay Complete Care for a basic day cream. A bit more money but my HG is Liz Earle Skin Repair, I use the combination one and it's like my skin says ohhhh thank god when I apply it.

    I love the Naked 2 it is cool toned which suits me and I love the Naked Basics (the first one) particularly.

  • 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?

    My two HG day creams which, like most of my stash, are on the cheaper side are:

    The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Cream
    Superdrug Vitamin E SPF 15 Moisturising Day Cream

    GA Lancome Rogue Lipstick to a friend as I don't think red suits me well. It was part of a set so wasn't full size.

    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.



    It's not the best mask I've ever tried but it does leave my hair quite sleek and silky after use. I only paid £4 in last year's Regis sale, but wouldn't repurchase at full price. I have another pot to use too but am actually thinking about trying to sell it.

    Afternoon everyone, hope you are all enjoying the weather.

    Here's my PP for this month, some of them are carried over from last month as I appear to have mislaid a few items. :(

    Boots - overnight rescue for feet
    Gatineau - 3D lip care
    Clinique - city block sheer spf 25
    Avon - grow potion
    Tommy - tommy girl perfume
    Decleor samples - phytopeel, cleansing milk
    Chanel - Coco perfume
    Decleor - hand lotion
    Gatineau - radiance enhancing gommage
    17 - lip crayon (pink colour)

    some of these are almost full items so this month will be more of a challenge. :)

    Take care

    Evening all, I'm in again, once it cools down enough I can have a pamper. OH is away Monday so fingers crossed its cool enough for a nice bath.
