Repainted my nails today, and dug out an old favourite I haven;t used in ages: Nails Inc Kensington Park Road. A gorgeous bright blue with a hint of green. It's very old and well used though, so had gone thick and gloopy, and was a huge effort to open the bottle! A few drops of Seche Restore made it usable again though, phew :cool: Seche Vite on top, and I might do some stamping later over it...

A nice summer color! I like those colors but on other people's hand. If I wear them, I feel odd. I haven't painted my nails for a while as they were weak and brittle. Will give some more time and will not have any gel nails again.

Hi everyone,

GMATG - I can relate to the struggles with the black dog. I'm going through a bit of a life upheaval at the moment and struggling a bit.

I have a UU - Elemis Herbal Lavendar mask WMBA is nice but I have a couple of other masks to UU and when time comes to justify a new one there's quite a list I'd like to try over this one!

Then a naughty 2x in, mostly due to feeling down (but then I have been more restrained than I could have been!). I bought an Hourglass blusher and a Lush Karma bubble bar.

Hi ladies!
I thought it's about time to jump back in to the challenge!
I don't have a pp list made up as such yet, but i've got a few things on their last legs that i'm hoping will be finished up this month.
2x travel sized shower gels
2x lip products
1x body butter
As many sample sachets as possible!

I hope all is well with everyone

One UU:

REN Evercalm Global Protection Day Cream 15ml WNBA. This irritated my skin so used it on my feet. I'm glad it's gone.

Welcome fudgesmoothies! I need to get back on track myself on the U and UU front and work out a new PP list.

I have been unbelievably lucky and got a ghd set to review. Not nuch else to report, though I've been busy with the new job which is entirely online so haven't always wanted to type up in forums at the end of the day.
One small UU of a Weleda Birch Body Scrub
WIB This was a sent to review just after Christmas, I felt as if it had been around for longer. Very nice though not the sort of thing you want to use every day in the shower.

Welcome fudgesmoothies - great name :rotfl:

Two UU for me, with one being on the summer list, yay!
- Ark age prepare exfoliator. WDNB. Came in a beauty box of some kind - I'd never buy it anyway as I don't use physical scrubs on my face. Used it up as a body scrub, and still didn't like it for that, too oily and just moved around rather than actually scrubbing.
- Vitamasques Manuka Honey sheet mask. WMB - very nice actually, sat well on my face, dried gently, left my skin feeling smooth immediately after, though not sure there are any long term benefits.

A few other things are spluttering, so hopefully there are more to come soon.

June PP
- Neal & Wolf Hair Oil (carry over from May)
- Garnier Summer body lotion (carry over from May)
- Carrefour lip balm (carry over from May)
- Nivea hand lotion (carry over from May)
- Champneys body lotion
- Max Factor Mascara

And my 5 by summer list
- Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation
- Erno Laszlo face cream
- Kedma eye cream (using on decolletage)
- [STRIKE]Ark face scrub[/STRIKE]
- Soap and Glory Micellar water

welcome to all the new faces.

I had a bad reaction to the cuticle oil, it made my fingers more inflamed and very sore. It was a case of a product worsening an existing issue.

A real bargain product I found was Kaeso facial exfolliator the calming version, the gritty stuff is in aloe vera and it feels like it does the job with out leaving you red faced from scrubbing.

Thank you all for the warm welcome!

A UU for me:

Pur Correcting Primer (mini) WNBA - this came in the M&S calendar at christmas, did absolutely nothing at helping my foundation stay and often balled up on application

And a couple of TA:

NYX Tame & Frame Tinted Brow Pomade WMBA - This is at least 18 months old, i'd neglected it for a while and tried to revive with a setting spray but its past that!
Benefit Boi-ing Concealer Almost had this for a year and its starting to sweat it looks like! I'd hit pan in this and as it's a cream project i'm ok with letting it go!

I have ins and felt bad about it even though I can justify them. I even put back an item I really wanted but now regret that too haha

INs
TBS - Spa of the World - Brazilian cupuaçu scrub in oil - 350g
TBS - Seaweed Poor Cleansing Exfoliator - 100ml
TBS - Seaweed Oil Balancing Toner - 100ml
TBS - Seaweed Oil Control Overnight Gel - 100ml

TA
Simple cream make up remover. About 1/3 left. This is so inefficient, can sting, uses up too many cotton pads. Persisted for long enough. WDNBA
