    I have my own PP going on, deadling 31st September, of the following items:
    • Finish shimmery eyeshadow in MUA 2 palette
    • Clarins liquid facial tan
      [STRIKE]
    • No7 lipgloss[/STRIKE]
      [STRIKE]
    • Mac lipstick in viva glam 4[/STRIKE]
    • HIt pan on 1 new blush
    • vita liberata facial fake tan
    • ELF loose powder
    • Burberry body spray
    • Marc jacobs lipstick
    • Finish gold eyeshadow in MUA 2 palette
    • Jack Wills body spray
    • Hit pan on one new eyeshadow
    • Finish sop & glory higlight/bronzer


    UU of the No7 lipgloss that had come in a xmas set a couple of years ago.

    Absolutely worthless IMO. Thin, sticky, but yet doesn't last 10 minutes, and the tube is SO tough you can barely squeeze anything out of it once it's halfway done! It's not even a proper UU, I was just so fed up of battling with it that it's had to go :p I have a couple left, one in a horrible sparkly white and another darker one, debating just chucking them - no one's got time for bad lipglosses!

    I'm focusing on my marc jacobs lipstick now at work to use it up - I do love the colour for every day and going out, so I may repurchase at some point, but I have quite a few lip colours so don't need to hold onto any. I've got the tiniest nub of this left.

    Also making good headway on the ELF powder - when I tip it sideways I can see that the powder inside is much less than a month or so ago. Hoping it will be done within the next couple of weeks (fingers crossed it will finish before I go back to my mum's house so I don't have to cart it back :rotfl:)

    I have some uu

    Library of Fragrance Cologne Spray in Wet Garden 30ml - I got two of these for £2.50 each on the Boots clearance shelf, they smell of cut flowers and fresh cut grass - lovely.

    Ambre Solaire After Sun with Gradual Tan 200ml
    - WMBA, this does a good job but is quite expensive for how much you get.

    maddiemay - hope your eczema settles down, my DD suffers with it too. We found the Body Shop soap free hand wash in Shea Butter very good.

    One UU today and it's something from my PP list

    La Roche Posay Anthelios XL Ultra Light Fluid 50ml WBA but not at this moment, I want to try different sunscreens, and I'm going to move onto the Bioderma Spot SPF50 Creme. The Vichy Dry Touch SPF is a bit too drying as I tried it the other day briefly and it's too drying for my skin.

    burts bees lip balm
    a lot of LRP samples but things i want to try.
    2 fragrance in as a gift

    I finished a liquid soap from aldi (very nice). I saw an article in the mail about the aldi candles being
    back, they never left my local store. I think they are nice and good for a few quid. I really rate them as highly as the yankee candles. My yankee candle is lovely to walk in and out of the fragrance but if you are sitting reading you cant smell it. Aldi candles are a fair price. The best candle i found was a tesco range discontinued citrus fruit and ginger so good.

    Hi all,

    A few outs.

    I returned the un-used Laura Mercier foundation after trying out the sample for a bit. I decided the colour wasn't right and it didn't have much of a 'wow' factor.

    I've UU a sanctuary body scrub. WNB a bit meh was part of a gift set I was given.

    Nearly used up a make up remover, my Nuxe was to replace it.

    May have a couple of ins tomorrow, doesn't strictly count but I need a big fluffy powder brush.
