1 more UU
50ml Spa Sanctuary body scrub used as a hand scrub. WBA for same purpose.

I may just UU 3 more items from my PP list, still struggling to use body butter regularly, but am remembering a little more often, plus 2 sample sizes of skincare and a packet o wipes that escaped the PP list.

I have some ins

Korres Bergamot Pear Shower Gel 250ml x 2
Elemis Sharp Shower 300ml - I said I wouldn't buy this again because of the price but I got a good price on it.
Borghese Fango Active Mud Mask 200ml
Bamboo Alterna Kendi Dry Oil Mist - amazing for frizz free natural curls.

Small UU
Omorovicza deep cleansing face mask sample pot - WNB as if was going to blow the budget would be on the ultra moor mud one instead.

I've decided that I'll report as and when I UU them so that it's going to be weeks before I publish any spoilers.

I have another UU - sample sachet of Elemis Pro Collagen Super Serum. This was beautiful but not sure I want to spend £49. on it.

It's a very slow month for me. I am too tired from working to actually run a bath and use some bath bombs up.

I might have a two UUs by the end of the month though.

I should finish my body scrub by next week as it is really low. I'm also hoping to use up a deodorant by Christmas.

UU
Pink Inc Eau de Toilette 10ml - This is just a mini I got from Superdrug in the January sales earlier this year. It had a nice scent - a bit like Lacoste Touch of Pink. I've kept the atomiser and transferred the rest of another perfume into it so will take that into work tomorrow.

I have two uu's

Boots Simply Sensitive Eye Cream 15ml - I opened this in February and have used it daily, I'm not sure how you are supposed to finish an eye cream in 6 months. WMBA, it is very light and just gives a bit of moisture to that area.

Una Brennan Rose Hydrate Mask - this has a slightly lumpy, almost curdled texture which I don't like and a very, very strong rose scent which I guess is synthetic. It does leave my skin nice and smooth and I've been using every other day and my skin looks good so not sure whether I would buy or not I will see how I get on without it.

This is my updated 'Finish 5 by Christmas' list. I can't see there being any further items gone by the weekend.


1. [STRIKE]Korres Rose Lipbalm[/STRIKE] - it has to be done by Christmas surely.
2. Witch Concealer stick
3. [STRIKE]Benetint[/STRIKE] - this is a half used mini bottle
4. Urban Decay Eyeliner - Corrupt, this is a double ended one so about half size.
5. [STRIKE]Estee Lauder Invisible Foundation[/STRIKE]


3 out of 5 finished. The concealer stick is only small but will still last most of January I think. The eyeliner has been a real eyeopener (see what I did there :rotfl:) I have used it every day for months and months and months and it just won't end, plus it is a half size. I have boat loads of eyeliners and will never use them all up - so depressing.



I will do a Finish 5 by Spring challenge I think and will post a list when I've had a think.

I had to throw away my Benefit RSVP cream eyeshadow away today. Yesterday it balled up and flaked off my eyelids. A shame as it was very nearly gone. Don't think I would repurchase. I prefer the Laura Mercier Caviar Stick I have in Rose Gold which is a nicer colour, texture (not as shimmery) and application.
