    Another UU:

    Sensual grey eau de toilette 10ml- WNBA i don't mind the scent but don't love it. Was a gift and still have a bit of the larger size perfume this came with.

    Morning all
    Welcome noble Viking
    Congratulations lou85
    A UU last night, an Avon eye cream I'd got but not used for a while had only a little left the gel over eye side had started to seperate and gone a combination of hard lumps and liquid and the cream under eye side had taken on a rather funny colour, I mixed it all together and used it on my rather dry elbows. They feel really smooth and soft this morning.

    I've been using an Avon lip primer thing that ran out about a week ago, coidcendentally I also swapped the colour of lippy I was using to a new benefit one. In the last week for the first time in my life my lips have gone dry and feel rough. Not sure if to blame over use of the primer or the new benefit lippy I've gone onto. I'm going to be using just a lip balm and avoid the lippy for a week and see if they improve.

    Have a good day all.

    2 UU to report:

    Garnier oil beauty body moisturiser sachet 10ml- WBA already have full size in stash. I like the smell and the consistency, it's very thick but absorbs well and a little goes a long way.

    Bomb cosmetics free spirit soap- WBA smells lovely, citrusy and fresh and lathers up a treat. I thought it was very pretty too, love the design of this one. Got lots of soap in stash so don't need to buy anymore yet though. Replaced this with a small burts bees poison ivy soap.

    May be going away for a long weekend next week so may get a few more samples and travel sized toiletries UU.

    Eta. Another UU just now, decided to slather on some face cream. I don't normally wear day moisturiser but I have so many sachets to UU...

    Garnier ultralift complete beauty day cream sachet sample 1.5ml- WMBA it has absorbed well and is a nice consistency. Not sure if this is the most age appropriate for me though, only in my 20's and I think it's aimed at people slightly older. I do prefer my johnsons one I'm currently using or TBS ones anyway.

    1 IN yesterday. Only a can of Batiste as the presnt one is feeling very light. It was on Rollback in ASDA for £2.00. Now that I'm typing this I'm having deja vu so not sure if I have already posted this.

    Repainted my toe nails last night and am wearing OPI Amore at the Grand Canal.
    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!

    Good riddance!!! :D

    Another UU:

    Bath & body works wild berry Chicago pocketbac hand sanitiser- WBA but I believe this is discontinued now, if I can find one at a reasonable price I may re purchase. Love the scent and packaging design. I have a holder on my keys with one of these in, they are so handy, especially at work, I'm forever sanitising my hands. These don't dry my hands out as much as other brands and it surprised me how long this lasted. Will replace with another as got several at home in stash.

    Bit late with my PP list this month but here it is anyway

    [FONT=&quot]My PP list for May will be;[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]1. No7 Smoothing and Brightening Eye Base
    2. No7 Super Slim Anti-Cellulite Contouring Balm
    3. No7 Refine and Rewind Serum (Sample size)
    4. No7 Protect and perfect serum (Sample Size)
    5. No7 Essential Moisture Night Cream

    I already have a UU

    [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Cutex Acetone Free Nail Varnish Remover - WBA - was fine and did the job but I have two more to UU in my cupboard which are already opened before I buy any replacements. Should be better at using these up now I am using nail varnish again but I can't see many bottles of nail varnish being used up soon as there are so many and seem to last so long even though I am polishing my nails twice a week!!![/FONT]

    Morning all
    Hope everyone is as well as can be.
    Was thinking about fizz last night, I miss her breezy greeting of "hola beauty queens" hope you are alright fizz if you ever lurk.

    A couple of UUs last night finished off a tub of champneys as good as new bubble bath- it was really nice and bubbled loads if you were generous with it. Also UU a small bath fizzer.
