    My last lipstick has gone this morning!! I could do a little dance. I won't because it would be embarrassing for those around me. I'm going to go into town on my way home from work and treat myself to a new Vegan one. If anyone has any recommendations I would welcome them!

    I have been very good at moisturising recently as well. I'm using Superdrugs own Cocoa butter. It smells lovely but is very runny and so I only need a tiny bit. The bottle seems to be going down quite quickly though.

    I'm going to an awards evening tomorrow with work so I will be able to use a little bit of my more "glam" make up - the stuff that I only wear when I go out. And I never go out anymore!

    Welcome to all of the newbies, I joined a few months ago and it's such a great group.

    Well I finally did it - I've gone and moved house.

    Hope you are all well.xxx

    Out two pencils
    One was a kohl eyeliner I've had for years that finally got UU the other was an eyebrow pencil I had tested recently, The kids went to see fall out boy last night and ds2 borrowed my pencils and had a bit of a black Stars and Stripes look going on right over his face like one of their album covers, so he finished them off for me.

    No uu's here but lots of things are going down nicely. I have taken the stopper out of my Revlon lip gloss so that should be gone soon. One week into October and no ins either, haven't had any ins since August now.

    pickle - moving house is totally exhausting, you just don't realise how much stuff you have. Hope you get the new place organised soon.

    Went to Superdrug last night to replace my lipstick. I got a little excited as their B range was all half price. I bought a new lipstick which has gone on very nicely this morning, a concealer (mine is nearly running out), face wipes (I UU the last one from the packet this morning), make up brush cleaner and primer (again mine is spluttering).

    Everything I've had from this range is great so far except for the mascara. But I did read the other day that it could be the brush. I'm currently using Benefit They're Real so once it's finished I'm going to try out the brush in that tube and see if it makes any difference.

    The total came to just under £20 which to begin with I almost had a heart attack over until I realised that when I use to purchase Benefit and Mac I would be lucky to have had just one of those products for that amount!

    I've got a couple of things to report...

    UU Corsodyl mouthwash 300mls size. This is DH's that he uses if he get an ulcer. It went OOD in March, but I've only just noticed that :eek:

    TA Charles Worthington Volume big bounce spray 200mls. Gifted to me and I really don't need it, as I have WILD hair. Put on the floor in the shower room to take out with me and one of the puppies nabbed it and chewed the lid and spray nozzle. BIN then...

    GA Sanctuary Body butter 150mos. Don't like the smell at all, but my cousin uses their stuff a lot, so have passed to her.
