    Val, it's fantastic, it arrived first thing this morning, so it went straight on and oh my goodness, what a joy to apply. It's like velvet.

    Really lovely consistency, no greasiness, no heaviness, feels so lovely. No reaction from my eyes to the SPF, which has happened with one or two products.

    Here's a link to my more indepth review up on Am@zon, it's the only one so far, so it will be interesting to see if others share my opinion.

    Will have a nosey at your reveiw when I get more time but thanks for letting me know. I think I may treat myself to their eye serum when I'm in the US.

    I do have 3 Ins from the weekend:-

    1) Ordered bottle of Elemis Lime Blossom Cleanser. Mine is in my PP list and is going down. I was trying to hold out until pay do to replace this but feelunique had 30% off at weekend and I ddin't think I could pass on this.

    2) Elvive shine spray. Saw it reduced in ASDA and will try anything to prolong the need to wash my hair to try and save the colour.

    3) Sally Hanson Diamond strength top coat. My Seche Vite has gone really gloopy and is causing major shrinkage every time I use it.
    Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!

    Afternoon ladies. I'm not best pleased today as I have a couple of spots coming and am not sure if one of the products I've been trying to use up is to blame. :mad:

    On the plus side, I've discovered that the White Company toiletries I acquired from a hotel visit several years ago are very nice indeed! :rotfl:
    Time may be a great healer, but it's a lousy beautician.... :/
  • UU Amie morning clear face wash. Nice and gentle, perfect for the shower. WMBA

    My decluttering side had a couple of fights with my freebie blagging side and lost. 2 trips through different department stores to avoid the rain brought In 6 skin care samples and a sample size foundation.:(
  • Popped into the £1 shop and got the conditioner I should have brought yesterday, so 3 INs Timotei Vivid Conditioners.
    Debt free and busy treating myself:)

    No more toiletries/make up until I've used what I've got stashed since Jan 2011, graduated October 2012. Restocked Dec 13..damn those sales

    I have a Murad facial exfoliator. I can't remember what it's called. It comes in individual tubes and is left on the face for a few minutes. It's amazing but it's expensive. I bought it from QVC. Very also sell some Murad. And Gatineau which is another of my downfalls!

    I'm using the Sally Hansen Mega Shine Top Coat at the moment and it is really good, my polish stays on just as good as with Seche, it doesn't set as quick though. The only problem with it the bottle is silver and when you get near the end you can't see where the remaining polish is.

    I have a uu

    Lush American Cream Hair Conditioner - WNBA, this is expensive and I hated using it, it was like applying body lotion to my hair, wherever it hit first it stayed and disappeared. My hair didn't look any worse for using it though.
