afternoon all,

another couple of UU/Out for me
UU: Redken united spray - HG love this and have replaced from one in stash (although shockingly this is the last from the stash!!)
Out: Monu cream sold on ebay.

Have also give a bundle of 15 nail polishes to CS as I just dont use them!

Am planning an IN tonight - having tried a friends Charlotte Tilbury powder at the weekend I simply NEED to purchase it! any other recommendations while I am at the counter

Not her lipglosses. I have had to reapply this loads today.

1 UU, a mini bath bomb. Came in a set of 6 as a gift for xmas. UU's are slow going at the moment!

One UU from this morning:

Toni & Guy Heat Protection Spray 75ml WDBA as full size. I liked this. It does it's job, and it has a decent scent. Leaves my hair nice and silky

I'm still not used to 6am starts. I've never had to get up that early for any job before :O

And two INs to report:
Tresemme Heat Defence Styling Spray
Colgate 2 in 1 Whitening toothpaste & mouthwash

NOT the magic foundation. Big disappointment for me even though I liked the sample.
I like the blush called Sex on Fire though.

1 IN - A body cream to test, no brand.

1 UU - Sukin Energising Body Scrub. Bought this from TKMAxx to try the brand and this is a very light product and is not drying. I do like body scrubs a bit more "Scrubby" so WNBA.

The lipsticks and lip liners are nice but I'm not sure they are worth the money to be honest. Think the lipsticks are £23 :eek:

I also have the magic foundation, I like it but don't love it. Again I don't think it is worth the money and don't think it lives up to the hype! Think they sell a number of kits now that look like good value which might be a good way to try out other things from the brand. They are about £55 each but you get 4-5 full size and mini products. What's the powder like? I am after a good mattifying powder.

Lots of decluttering going on, well done everyone. I didn't realise you could take nail varnish to the charity shop. I got rid of about 50 items of make up at a car boot sale at the weekend :T:eek: the awful thing is, I still have loads of make up :eek:

Some UUs

14) Superdrug Cleansing Facial Wipes for Sensitive Skin - WBA as they don't leave that horrible residue on your skin that the more expensive brands do.

15) Baylis and Harding Frosted Sprinkles liquid soap - WBA if it was on the sale shelf. The soap was a bit too thin, but the bottle was very cute.

16) Liz Earle Hot Cloth Cleanser - I have only used half of this, but I am throwing it away as my skin really does not like LE products.

17) Calvin Klein Secret Obsession body lotion - TA as it smells off.

18) Palmolive Feel Glamorous Shower Scrub - WNBA. Not scrubby enough to actually remove dead skin, but too scrubby to just use as a shower gel.

21 10ml tube of L'occitane Shea hand cream Love this stuff. Have a rolled up full size to finish next. WDBA

22 Avon Planet Spa body butter Again, love this stuff. Need to look in stash to see if have anything else that's floral to replace it. WDBA.

I have some uu's

Liz Earle Intensive Nourishing Treatment 75ml - WNBA as an individual item but would use if I ever received it as a gift, easy to use and my skin feels soft after use but I think that is just the residue of it until I use toner, no noticeable benefits the day after though.

Witch Stick Concealer - WMBA but do already have 2 more in the stash, this was one of my Finish 5 by Spring and one of my Finish 5 by Christmas:eek:, it conceals and stays on ok but I very much doubt it treats blemishes as it claims, also it is orange toned like most things. I see lots of people with different skin tones but all the naturally yellow and orange people must be hiding somewhere, the makeup industry can see them though.

Thanks for the new thread Deleted_User.

My PP list for February is:

Dr Organic Virgin Coconut Oil Monoi Moisture Melt Body Oil 100g
[STRIKE]Embryollise Lait Creme Concentrate 75ml[/STRIKE]
Liz Earle Instant Boost Skin Tonic 200ml
[STRIKE]Liz Earle Bergamot & Ginger Shower Nectar[/STRIKE]

Burts Bees Grapeseed & Honey Hand Cream
Vaseline Aloe Body Lotion 400ml
[STRIKE]Philosophy Purity Made Simple 90ml[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]M&S Mon Petit Secret EDT 30ml[/STRIKE]

My finish 5 by Spring list:

1. [STRIKE]Soap & Glory Gloss Stick in Plum Jam[/STRIKE]
2.[STRIKE] Witch Concealer stick[/STRIKE]
3. Benefit Dandelion Blush
4. No7 Crème Touch Powder in Candlelight
5. [STRIKE]Laura Mercier Caviar Stick in Rosegold[/STRIKE]

My updated lists. The last two items on my Finish 5 by Spring list will be gone by March 21st (if that is the first day of spring??). The powder is just a ring around the edge now and is crumbling when I use it. There is still quite a lot of blush round the edges but because of the square box it's in it makes it hard to get on the brush and I doubt it is doing my brush any good so either way I will be done with it by Spring.
