Simple Facial Toner 56 ml. Meh, did the job. Have gallons of micellar water to move through.
Peter Thomas Roth anti-aging cleansing gel 57 ml. Nice but too expensive to buy full size.
Marcelle Hydra-C facial exfoliating gel. 100ml. WBA nice to use in the shower.
Darphin Predermine. 15 ml. Densifying anti wrinkle cream. Just OK came in a beauty bag and won’t bother looking for it.
2 foil samples.
It’s freezing here so the hand cream and body lotions are in full rotation.0 -

I re-painted my nails last night with Clinique Black Honey, it is just a mini bottle which I've had a while but never used, first time using Clinique nail polish at all, went on really nicely so I will see how it wears.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

The Simple Micellar make up remover with new label design has a faint chemical scent - has anyone else experienced this?
Also, got a letter from Boots for a product recall of Benefit Gimme Brow gel due to quality issues. Mine was a freebie and I like it so will continue to use but an FYI for others.

I re-painted my nails last night with Clinique Black Honey, it is just a mini bottle which I've had a while but never used, first time using Clinique nail polish at all, went on really nicely so I will see how it wears.
Then last night I unscrewed the top and the brush part stayed in the bottle! Fiddled for ages but couldn’t get the brush to fit into the cap to become usable.
It was part of a black honey set, came with a mascara, and two lip products.
Liked it but won’t pay Clinique prices for nail polish0 -
wondercollie - I don't think I would pay Clinique prices for nail polish either, what a pain about yours I hope that isn't common.
I have a uu
Softlips Aloe Lipbalm - WBA, these last ages, are thin so you can apply without it going everywhere and they stay on the lips a long time. I have replaced it with a Vanilla one.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

It seems that my laptop needs a new hard drive, our local people are going to deal with it and see how much stuff they can recover from the old one, so I need to keep on with my paper list or learn how to use this tablet better:j:j
In
15 ml Merumaya eye cream 1/57
100ml Aveda style prep 2/58. My fine hair (luckily have quite a lot of it) is being pesky and everything I have seems to weigh it down and make it limp, so bit the bullet for the expensive Aveda and will get rid of all the offending stuff which has proven a false economy.The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time.
