    Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation


    Max Factor Facefinity 3 in 1 Foundation – this is for work days and is the same as Cover Girl Outlast Stay Fabulous that a lot of US youtubers rave about – it is really, really good.

    Clinique Airbrush Concealer – for undereyes


    No7 Crème Touch Powder


    Benefit Benetint/Benefit Dandelion/Body Shop Honey Bronzer

    S&G It’s about prime/Smashbox Photofinish primer (eyes)


    Clinique Pink Chocolate Palette/MAC Omega for blending out my crease/Estee Lauder Double Wear Cream Eyeshadow in Antique Gold.


    Bobbi Brown Chocolate Eye Liner (this tiny pencil is going to last the rest of my life seemingly)


    Lancome Hypnose Drama Mascara



    Body Shop Delipcious Lipstick in a sheer plum colour topped with Model Co Sweet Berry lipgloss

    Postman just brought me an IN.

    Lush pot o gold shower jelly 100g

    I had promised myself this for Easter but when I looked at this years Easter stuff online they seem to have discontinued pot o gold as it wasn't there. So I managed to get a new pot on eBay instead that is still in date. It smells amazing. I'm using sweetie pie jelly in the shower currently so when that's gone I will replace it with this. The other jelly I want is big calm but it only comes up on the kitchen occasionally and I always miss it. Don't need it anyway.

    Another uu here Timotei Vivid Colour shampoo, not very exciting but I'm going to have to get some more I'm on my last bottle now:eek:
    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
  • One UU:

    Bar of Lush Porridge Soap. WMBA - Love the smell but the "grit" got annoying after a while. I do love lush soap but I have so much soap I won't be able to buy any for ages.

    Some lovely products there dolly. I googled the Omega colour which looks gorgeous.

    Another UU in my shower last night : Loccirane verbena soup mini size. This is the one shaped like a leaf with scrubby bits. Love the exfoliation I get with this and it's creamy enough but one of these mini sizes only last me a week. Not sure I would buy the full size cos no doubt it's pricey and I wouldn't want to spend so much on an item that will be UU so quickly.

    I would love to join in this challenge, I have a lot of items to use up before I need to buy anymore. Some I know I have had for few years.

    Welcome. Pull out your old items and start using up. What is your particular downfall, make up or toiletries?

    I have a uu

    Balance Me Radiance Facial Oil Roll On 15ml - this is very nice although I do decant it into a bottle with a pipette as I don't like the roller ball. I have more of these in the stash but I have replaced it for now with a full size pot of the Elemis Skin Bliss Capsules.

    I also have ins from my Avon order:

    Avon Herbal Steam Bath Body Cream 200ml
    Avon Gel Nail Polish in Lavender Sky.
