Two UUs for me tonight:
Lush Butterball WDBA. Loved this. Very moisturising.
Paula's Choice Calm Redness Relief Repairing Serum sample WMB. I'm a bit undecided on this, but it is nice.0 -
in a small bottle of rosewater.
after opening a burts bees deep cleansing cream'- it is like dipping your head in mentol crystals, It really feels very menthol and eyes were sore. It was a free item but I would be gutted if i paid for it. I was disapointed as it does not feel like the cream is removing make up'- despite it's promise to do so.0 -

Hey everyone,
I have a few use ups and then some ins.
UUs
Samples:
Lancôme genefique serum - WMB think it's effective but a bit of a mystery I feel I know nothing about it that it is expensive!
Dr Hauska (sp?) rose day cream WB really
lovely. Quite rich so better for winter, live things with rose in.
Dr Levy stem cell sample WNB - went to use this and was empty, can't remember what it was like
Full size:
Aussie Miracle Shampoo WPBA although think it may have made my scalp a bit itchy
Huge bottle of Sanex dermo care bubble bath WPBA very basic but good if skin is feeling sensitive and can add essential oils to add some scent.
Then ins:
Top shop eyeshadow stick in a metallic bronze colour
8x various Aesop samples (the lady was so generous!) mostly the parsley seed stuff and one rose serum thing
5x Lush bath oils can't be bothered to list names right now but very excited to try these as London exclusives
1x Flowering Tea reusable bubble bar
3x lush samples a Cuban cigar themed face scrub, herbalism and mouth wash tablets
May buy the odd other thing....0 -

It is brilliant at removing heavy trowelled on make up but it does not have the enjoyable feel as others I used before. I am very sensitive to smells and really think it is a great product but not for me.
I have been using daily my serum from bielenda a Polish brand and It is really making a massive difference to my skin over the last month.0 -
20 50ml pot of Boots The Extracts Vanilla body butter I love these and buy these small pots in the Boots January sales. I have never bought a full size I don't think as I tend to find something else cheaper. This smells gorgeous. These pots tend to last me about 3-4 applications. Will pull another one from stash.
I repainted my nails this morning and am wearing OPI Off With Her Red. My very favourite red that has been discontinued. Am getting less product on my brush so think it's days may well soon be over.
Have teamed the red lacquer up with Charlotte Tilbury Red Vixen lip gloss.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!

I have decluttered 30 nail polishes to the CS and thrown 2 away as they had changed colour - both the same brand (Tanya Burr). I have 18 other bottles on their last chance, they are all high end and if I use them and don't like them they will be listed as a job lot on ebay.
Also a uu
Philosophy Purity Made Simple 90ml - WMBA, I use this in the morning so can't speak for how it handles makeup, nice geranium scent and not too much lather.
I should finish a couple of other bits before the month is out.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler
