    I've been travelling around a bit, so I've a few UUs from the past couple of weeks to report:

    - Nivea travel size deodorant. Fine. Will buy another mini at the airport tomorrow for the next few weekend trips
    - Dove full size deodorant. Fine. I’m really not fussy about deodorants in general :)
    - Elemis moisturising face mask (30ml). WNBA. Was free anyway, from my mum :) Fine, but not amazing.
    - (TA) Crabtree & Evelyn Scar Fade Serum. WNBA. Brought out small spots, though it was really old.

    So my PP list looks like this

    - A Clinique double powder that is refusing to die :P (these really are great value for money, virtually everlasting)
    [STRIKE]- A face mask (any face mask! I just want to get rid of at least one…)[/STRIKE]
    - Burts bees foot cream
    - 2 Dove body lotions (both part empty)
    [STRIKE]- Estee Lauder mascara[/STRIKE]
    - Clinique primer
    - 1 shampoo, 1 conditioner (I’ve a few open, so any one of each :) )
    [STRIKE]- Body shop Vitamin C serum[/STRIKE]

    So not an amazing success :p I’ll have to try harder in October!

    Hi ladies. I know I'm away but am the only one awake at the mo so thought I'd catch up on the thread. Belated Birthday wishes to indiepanda. Having a great time though the humidity has taken some getting used to. It's 6.36am here and this is a reasonable time to be awake. For first couple of days was waking at 3.00 am.

    So some purchases already:-

    Manchester airport : MAC Prep and Prime SPF50. I am officially in love with this product! MRMS refused to let me pack the super sized LG Spacle that I own so I needed a primer plus this has SPF in it. Smells and feels amazing. Not sure how my make up is holding up though as I'm getting so hot that I'm wiping it off anyway!

    We were given some vouchers by Virgin because they moved us and MRMS argued with them about it as we had paid to book them. So HAD to buy some make up. Got The Balm nude eyeshadow palette which is nice and a set of 3 Bobbi Brown lipsticks which have gorgeous texture. Love 2 out of 3 of the colours.

    Visited LUSH at Orlando Airport and bough Dirty shave cream which is lovely and soothing and cup of coffee face mask which is also really lovely but needs to be removed in the shower as the grainy bits are hard to remove otherwise.

    Having a lazy day at the hotel today as we are at MK Hallowe'en party tonight. Take care all x
    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!

    Finished the month on 7 UUs, 0 GAs, 0 TAs and 0 INs.
    That means my year-to-date figures are 59 UUs, 2 GAs, 3 TAs and 21 INs.

    Not as many UUs as most of you seem to manage, but at least my count is going in the right direction :)
