    OUT

    Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish 50ml - a freebie I decided I wouldn't use, so sold it.
  • Welcome obop!

    shandyclover - sounds like you had quite an eventful time!

    VALM - hope you have a nice time!

    I have a few UUs this evening:

    TBS Blueberry Body Butter 200ml: So sick of TBS body butters! They don't sink in well for me and this scent was very sickly - WNBA.

    Garnier Ultimate Blends Strength Restorer Shampoo & Conditioner 7ml: This had an incredible scent and made my hair so glossy and soft - WDBA.

    TBS Tea Tree Face Mask 100ml: Ironically, this face mask brought me out in spots! You get a lot of applications for your money but it wasn't for me - WDNBA.

    UU for me today No7 Total Renewal body scrub.

    It's quite exciting using things up. Never thought it could be so much fun.
  • Uus:

    Tigi Tigi Catwalk Headshot Tween Duo (shampoo & conditioner)
    , WBA, love the menthol smell and does not leave a residue in my hair. Both products have lasted a year so was a good investment.

    4-in-1 Sanctuary Body & hair elixir Probably won't buy it again, bought as a sleep pack.

    Hydrogen peroxide
  • Down to 27 nail polishes from 38.

    Used up a couple, sold a few more, gave away a couple, chucked the others I just was never going to use again (unflattering colours, bad formulas, bad brushes). Almost all fits on top of my dresser in a nice rainbow line now!

    Morning guys.

    I have some uu's

    Bare Minerals Original Mineral Veil 2g - I am in two minds about this, I don't see any benefit from it when I use it over Bare Minerals foundation (the powder type), the foundation seems to be fine on its own. I have however been using this over my regular liquid foundation as a setting powder and the finish looks really lovely. I have an 8g pot and maybe another 2g pot so I don't need to think about buying just yet.

    Kniepps Pure Bliss Mineral Bath Salts - this was a single use sachet, they smelt great and turned the bath water a bright pink, WBA if I see them somewhere.

    Philip Kingsley Moisture Balancing Conditioner 20ml - WBA, I have a 1L bottle of this and another 20ml tube and I have just finished a 500ml bottle - it is lovely stuff.

    Hello all and a warm welcome to the thread obop. :)
    I'm definitely struggling with not going on a feeling-sorry-for-myself massive superdrug splurge at the moment. There's loads of stuff I want but I don't think I need any of them.

    My INs are so much worse than the rest of you! I think, though, as long as my overall total goes down not up that's a win for me!
    Don't worry Deleted_User, I am struggling a bit too. As soon as I have a bit of an off day I always feel like buying something to cheer myself up; old habits die hard. As long as you are moving in the right direction you shouldn't beat yourself up about it. :o

    I have a couple of recent ins to declare too. Daily Defense Argan Oil shampoo and 3 Minute Treatment Conditioner. These were £1 each from The Original Factory Shop and I couldn't resist.

    I'm going to try and sort out all my conditioners this month so I can see exactly what I've got.
    Time may be a great healer, but it's a lousy beautician.... :/
