I'm using a large GWP sample of this at the moment (I won it in a set in a Boots raffle of all places). I have also just spotted that feel unique have samples of it in their pick and mix (I've never ordered from feel unique but you can order 5 samples for £3.95 which you can then redeem off a full size purchase). Also I've had samples from
The Clinique counter before just ask them to pop a bit in a sample pot and they likely will.

Good luck! I'll let you know how I get on. Im a little bit spotty and not sure if the moisture surge is responsible or not. Shame if it is as I do love the texture of it. It is more likely to be stress and too much sugar, from all the work stress!

Cheers! I think when I go shopping before or on my birthday in January I'm going to pop into the nearest Boots with a Clinique counter and try to get a sample

Morning all.

I have a uu

Elemis Sharp Shower 300ml - I am so sad to see this go, it is probably my favourite ever shower gel, I first bought DH a bottle years and years ago and have loved it ever since.

Is it discontinued dolly?

I have a UU of a serum I had been sent for testing.
Most frustrating that I don't know which brand, other than it's a glass bottle about 4 inches tall, black lid and pump and serum is beige/creamy coloured. But I do like it and WBA if I knew what it was!

In to report- Elizabeth Arden 8 hour tinted balm. my lips are so broken and the blisteze is sore. i got a sample of the aqua di palma perfume- it is lovely.

Black friday sales continued today and you would think the shops were giving everything away and closing down forever. Primark had a queue that must have had 150 people in it! Debenhams looked like a war zone.

I hope that your house goes through Catriona- it is truly stressful waiting and hoping it all works out ok. I think it is a difficult process. there are so many factors beyond your control- it is a wait and see, hope for the best and cross your fingers process.

UU
Aussie Miracle Moist Conditioner 75ml - I really like Aussie hair products so I was very pleased with this conditioner. I like the scent as well. WDBA but have moved on to others in the stash for the time being (got plenty of stuff left).

Hoping my current hand cream will get used up today or tomorrow to add to my use up list. It's now sitting on the side with the lid off. Did anyone succumb to any Black Friday sales? I was really tempted but in the end I didn't give in.

I have not! Hurrah!

I almost clicked "buy" on 3 items of make up with a 20% discount (things that I will buy eventually), but then I found a fantastic offer on a food processor (to replace my dead one), £150 with the next best price being £215, cannot have everything that I desire and the FP will make my life so much easier:D:D:D

I succumbed to the black Friday sales, but not toiletry-wise. :eek:

I bought some basic bras for work from Boux Avenue as they had 20% off and a waterproof, hooded Superdry jacket(a real rarity!) from the Superdry store as they had 20% off also.

I don't know if any of you have heard of it but there's a chain of stores called Yours. They sell clothes for the larger lady, but they also have a mens section. My dad is literally built like a brick sh!thouse so I got him a new t shirt and pullover for Christmas in there as, funnily enough, this store had 20% off! :rotfl:

Uus:

TBS Dreams Unlimited EDP: WBA , pleasant smelling fragrance for every day use.

Miss Europe Glitter body oil Secret Santa present, WNB

LIDL Cien shampoo WNBA Lathers well but too drying for Afro hair

DOP shampoo Surprisingly good results. Leaves my hair very soft and doesn't seem to contain silicones which weigh down my hair.

Revlon dark brown/black eyebrow pencil Good shade, WBA

Ins

2 x Dop shampoos

We went into Manchester yesterday for the Christmas markets cos Emma was home and it was horrendous. The only shop we nipped into was House of Fraser and it was such a mess. Haven't bought anything on the Black Friday sales so far.
