    I have some GA's

    OPI Chip & Skip mini - this dries my nails out horribly.
    No7 Cleanse & Prime - same type of product as above.
    Sally Hansen French Nail Tip Whitener - I can never do a good french manicure so this had to go.

    I've got a hand cream spluttering, and I'm nearing the end of a few cleansers so I should have a few UUs soon.

    And welcome to the new faces :)

    1 UU, Tresemme heat defence spray. WBA, I don't really feel any difference but I know a heat protectant is important and I've heard this is good, so will keep using.
    No more goo hoarding!

    And I've just finished the spluttering hand cream, so one UU to report:

    The Body Shop Morocco Argan Oil Hand Cream 30ml WDBA. I like The Body Shop hand creams, lovely and nourishing for my hands. I've had this on my bedside table but I've been using this whenever I've washed my hands in the bathroom. I'm going to replace it with a Shea hand cream.

    I'm now down to 6 hand creams, and another one should be finished this month or next.

    Will post my PP list later. Have a few UU to add already.

    Loreal Micellar Gel Sensitive Eye Make-up Remover 125ml - I bought this on clearance at Boots. I prefer this to the Garnier Micellar Water I have which I'm now trying to use up. WMBA.

    Nair Nourish Bikini & Underarm Glide-on 100ml - I was really impressed with this. As it was a glide-on, it was easy to use without too much mess and I could do it quickly. I also found it more effective than Veet at removing the hairs. WDBA.

    2 UUs, and a few in's again :p

    UUs:
    - Garnier Summer Body lotion (light). WBA - easy to use, moisturising, generally pretty cheap. I'll need to replace this as I'm off to a festival soon and need to build up some colour.
    - Sachet of Real Techniques brush cleansing gel. WMB - if on a good offer. Does the job.

    Also 5 little in's though - I found out about the FeelUnique Pick'n'mix service, and as I'm almost out of serums, and not a fan of my last one, I ordered 5 little serum samples. So I'm not feeling too guilty about this one :p

    PP list slowly improving
    June PP
    - Neal & Wolf Hair Oil (carry over from May)
    - [STRIKE]Garnier Summer body lotion (carry over from May)[/STRIKE]
    - Carrefour lip balm (carry over from May)
    - Nivea hand lotion (carry over from May)
    - Champneys body lotion
    - Max Factor Mascara

    Evening all

    Have a few UU's to declare

    1) Daisy body lotion 75ml - wnba, this came with the perfume which is okay but not my favourite. Sunk in well and skin felt smooth afterwards.
    2) Boots firm hold hairspray 75ml - wba, good cheap and does what it's meant to do although it does make my hair look dry. (may be me using too much)
    3) Boots cotton wool pads x100 - wba but trying to find something cheaper
    4) Estee Lauder dark spot correcting fluid 1.5ml - wnb as not sure how well it works but did make my skin lovely and soft
    5) Urban Decay foundation 5ml - wmb but currently have some more samples and other foundations to use up. Quite a light foundation and didn't fully cover the redness on my cheeks.
    6) Pure deep cleanse cleansing wipes 30 - wmba but not sure how I feel about wipes as do not feel they cleanse my face properly but good to use if a late night and just want to get to bed.

    Quite a productive June so far and feels great to be using things up. Just need to keep going and carry on using all my products.

    GMAT
    Lost my way for far too long but now back on board to lead a more simplistic lifestyle

    I decluttered some lip products yesterday

    Natural Collection Cranberry Lipstick - too frosty.
    Tanya Burr Pink Lip Gloss - nice but I have to many so DD took this.
    Laura Mercier mini lip glace - went to DD as too sparkly for me.
    Revlon Ultra HD Matte (?) lovely colour but I don't like matte lip products. Went to DD.
    Bourjois Rouge Edition Matte - as above, went to DD who enjoys wearing matte products.
    My Little Beauty lipstick - this was lovely but it was soooo soft and it broke off, I put it in a pot and applied with a lip brush for a few days but I don't like applying this way, I like to just lash lipstick on and go, so this is a TA.

    afternoon all,

    2 small UU but a UU is a UU:)
    UU: 2 x Elemis Hydra Balance day cream sample sachets - WDBA really liked how light this was and gave my skin a needed hydration boost without being heavy. may well purchase.

  • lancome eyeliner in. Last one is on its last legs about two goes left and the lady on the counter was really nice about giving me a sample of a foundation and serum. I would have replaced it next week but sometimes i prefer commission to go to people who are helpful not pushy.
    It was not the espresso colour i had before but a brown. I hate limited products as you can not replace them.
