I have a uu
L'oreal Triple Resist Conditioner 400ml - WMBA, this is nice.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler
Fashion on the Ration 28/660 -
Two TAs:
La Roche Posay Anthelios XL Comfort Cream SPF50 50ml
Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm 15ml
Would not buy either again. The Clinique Cleansing Balm burnt my skin when I used it. And the sunscreen irritated my skin0 -
UU - Lady Gaga Fame 30ml Perfume - WBA0

I have a uu
Avon Glimmerstick Brow Definer in Dark Brown - WMBA as it lasts all day and you get a lot of product but it does lean a bit red. Also I don't like how much packaging there is left when you've finished this type of product (that plastic is going nowhere fast), I like a pencil that you sharpen which is more environmentally friendly imo.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

UU:
3 foils of shampoo
3 foils of conditioner.
Nothing was worth a second buy. I'm beginning to wonder how many of these are tucked away around the house!0 -
Four INs to report:
La Roche Posay Lipikar Syndet AP+ Cream Wash 200ml
La Roche Posay Lipikar Surgras Concentrated Shower Cream 200ml
La Roche Posay Hydreane Legere moisturiser
Random perfume sample
I needed another tube of my moisturiser ready for my current one finishing, and Escentual had money off nearly every La Roche Posay product. So I got two items I've been eyeing for a while.0 -

Hi everyone!
I'm back with some UUs and then to admit all my ins...
Ok UU:
Omorovicza thermal cleansing balm - second time I've had this, wouldn't rule buying again but next time I need a ball cleanser I might go back for emma hardie which is much better value
Oskia renaissance cleanser - WBA HG, this is lovely has a gentle enzyme in which helps exfoliate
Foils/samples
Lancer the method cleansing and moisturising 3 steps - WNBA made my skin dry out, might have results long term but this felt too aggressive for me
Darphine 8 flower oil - WNBA didn't like the smell, there's other facial oils I prefer
Tata Harper cleansing oil - WNBA there's other oil cleansers as good and cheaper
The ins I had a while back were:
Oskia cleansing gel, replaced the above
Tata Harper pore minimising cleanser, heard good things wanted to try
Hourglass concealer, wow this seems amazing best colour match ever had
Leonor Greyl balancing shampoo and a hair mask, at first I loved these now not so sure, alternating with washing my hair with cheaper stuff!
Speaking of - I think I bought a thickening conditioner I'd had before and still had a shampoo to match, kind of regret it now should have GA the shampoo and bought lush shampoo bar and conditioner as I'm starting to feel they're the best options for me.
Then I got a whole host of other sample sizes ins (and one full size cleanser and lip gloss) via the Space NK goodie bag. I'm actually now really glad I did this (I also bought a really great bent eyeliner brush to make up my spend and I love it!) as I love loads of the things in it already especially the Laura Mercier Matt eyeshadow stick and the Kevin Aucon lip pencil which are both amazing!
Other ins:
Lush milky bath bubble bar which is a HG
4x lush mini wash cards scented in some of their perfumes0 -
Five INs to confess to - having an unproductive month
Aveda Shampure, then got four freebies to go with it, including my birthday gift - body oil, scalp cleanse, serum and hair texture spray.Not buying unnecessary toiletries 2024 26/53 UU, 25 IN0 -
One UU from last night:
Tony Moly Moisturising Sheet Mask WBA if I wanted a moisturising sheet mask. It was nicer than another sheet mask I've tried. Very moisturising0
