    One UU from this morning:

    Tresemme Heat Defence Styling Spray 300ml WNBA. I hate this, so glad it's gone. Now to move onto my Toni & Guy one :)

    And three INs from this morning:

    Tony Moly Moisturising Sheet Mask
    Tony Moly Vitality Sheet Mask
    Nivea Stress Protect Deodorant 50ml


    TK Max had the Tony Moly masks in so I got two to try, I've heard good things about these masks :)

    A UU and a TA - slow going this month so far.

    UU - Tigi Dumb Blonde Reconstuctor 750ml. HG - have another in stash.

    TA - Botanics Face scrub. No idea how old this is, and I never use it - I don't like things this scrubby.

    I have some uu

    Essential Care Mascara - this came in a beauty box and it is a basic mascara which makes no bold claims, it lasts well all day but is very natural on the lashes and takes some time to build up. This brand ticks a lot of boxes for me - ethical, cruelty free, environmentally friendly etc but the price is too high for such a basic mascara so WNBA.

    2True WOW Waterproof Mascara - this was a cheapy brand sold in Superdrug and this was £2, it was very good overall but did dry up quicker than any other mascara I've ever had. Superdrug no longer stocks this brand (not near me anyway) but WBA.

    My Finish 5 by Autumn list:

    1. Benefit Creaseless Cream Eye Shadow RSVP mini
    2. Avon Glimmerstick Brow Definer - Dark Brown
    3. [STRIKE]Avon Glimmerstick Eyeliner in Brown Glow[/STRIKE]
    4. Bobbi Brown Pale Pink Powder Blush - mini
    5. [STRIKE]No7 Cream Blush in Candlelight [/STRIKE]

    This project finished today and this is how it ended. The brow pencil will be gone this month as will the Benefit eyeshadow. I still haven't hit pan on the blush and I think that will last for all eternity.

    Well done on your challenge. I own a Bobbi Brown blush and don't think I'll ever hit pan as it is so pigmented.

    I have 2 UUs :-

    Mini OPI Nail Envy - HG product. Have full size to replace this with.

    Dove Pistachios shower gel. Was OK. Dove is not a brand I love. I didn't buy this. I won it and have another in stash. Would not seek this out to repurchase.

    I go on holiday on Sunday. Last day in work - yay. Have packed my toiletries although I intend to use the hotel freebies and have kept it to the minimal. There will be purchases though.
    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!

    UU L'Oreal Hydra Genius Aloe Water moisturiser - WBA. I am super impressed with this and it might be my new holy grail product (which means L'Oreal are bound to discontinue it!). It didn't upset my sensitive skin and was very moisturising whilst being lightweight. It's currently £6.66 at Boots so I may need to break my no spending on toiletries ban!
