    I haven't bought any of the beauty BF deals but I did get OH a lot of stuff from GAP outlet at the Swindon Designer Village at 50% off and also magically found the exact colour and style of dress I want my bridesmaid to wear! I need to change it to a size 12 though as a 10 wouldn't do up over her boobs!

    Anyone want to see it?

    I managed not to buy anything skincare or toiletry related in the Black Friday sales. Though I did buy myself an electric toothbrush which I'm excited for it to arrive, I can't wait to try it :)

    I'd love to but how the hell do you post photos on here anymore?

    I've searched and can't work it out, I used to use photobucket but that doesn't work anymore! Hopefully this link will....

    TA - Omorovicza Foaming Cleanser. Mostly used this up but it is so heavily scented and even my skin couldn't tolerate it. It was from an LF box a while back. I think it was 20 ml. I did use in the hope that it would improve my skin and then stopped using it. Found it tonight when tidying and threw it away.

    UU- Dennis Gross Peel Packs x 5. This was from Cult Beauty box and I think it is good but I couldn't see a massive difference to my skin.Perhaps it would be better in long term. I think Nip+Fab does the job.

    Thank you! I knew all along what colour I wanted and was just very lucky I think!

    Also it was originally £139, then was down to £50 in the sale, THEN an extra 20% off for BF bringing it to only £40! That's an extra £99 back in the budget!!
