    UU

    Boots thespa conditioning body moisturiser 125ml
    - This was good, had a lovely scent (like minerals) and made my skin very soft. The shape of the packaging was a little awkward but I didn't waste too much. Have replaced with Baylis & Harding body butter from a Christmas gift set.

    morning all,

    well I finally have UU to report!
    UU: Fat Hair extreme hairspray - would love to be able to buy this again but alas they have discontinued it :( thankfully I have one more in my stash!
    UU: 1st from my PP list 0- ESPA cleansing balm - WMBA, did the job and smelled lovely but I really do prefer my Elemis HG

    1 IN to report - Gen NUDE bareminerals lipstick - have been after a nude for a while so will see how I get on with this one.

    Happy Birthday VALM! :bdaycake:

    One UU from me - Batiste original. WDBA. I have no Batiste left at all now! that hasn't happened in a while... I'll be moving in a few weeks though, so I'll probably not rebuy until after. One less thing to move :)

    Was my birthday yesterday and I got:-

    Too Faced Natural Eyes palette from Emma
    Laura Mercier Sandglow Caviar Stick and NARS Damage lipstick from MRM
    Rimmel nail colours Ethereal and Euphoria and mini L'Occitane shampoo and conditioner from friends at work.

    I also got Lean in 15 book, flowers, gift cards and money.

    Feeling blessed (and hungover).

    Happy (belated) Birthday!

    I have a naughty in which is a NYX lip butter. I have spent ages trying to find a cheaper version of my beloved Clinique lip gloss and this is it. The colour I got is also not a bad dupe of my favourite Clinique one.

    15. Small sample of Marc Jacobs Daisy Do like this but think I want to buy the Liz Earler no 20 next time I want a floral fragrance. Have a few at the moment though.
    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!

    Hope you had a lovely birthday Valm, some lovely gifts there.

    Thanks again savingfortomorrow, I'm not sure how to go about finding a private dermatologist. Would potentially be interested in doing this but don't know anyone that could recommend anyone. Again maybe my gp could help with this.
