I have a GA

Leighton Denny Nail Polish in Up in the Air - the colour was OK but I didn't love it but when I used it this week it chipped on the first day. I find LD does nice colours but they don't wear well. This has only been used twice so it has gone in the charity bag.

I repainted my nails this morning and am wearing OPI Coalmates. The Morgan Taylor one wore the same as any other polish on me (2 days) as I type all day at work. It was a pain to remove though staining both my nails and cuticles.

I have GA:-

Funny gadget you put on you put on your finger and push a nail polish bottle into. Came in my Mani and Lola box and I won't use it. Gave to my friend at work for her daughter.

Likewise, a bottle of Cuccio nail colour that is pearlescent pink that I think a friend at work would like more. Also gave her a mini OPI top coat.

Hello! I've been active on the comping forum here for years and thought about doing this one too for a while. I'm a bit of a hoarder / squirrel!
I've started working out how much I have (currently 166 items and counting :eek: ) so thought I'd post my UU's to motivate me to finish the stash list and get using up!

Fairly certain I could make it through most of 2018 without buying any beauty products besides deodorant, eye cream and possibly moisturiser so here goes!

Will GA
Soap & Glory Sunkissed tint body lotion wash-off 200ml - If I'm fake-tanning I prefer the non-wash off, so this just won't get used, was a gift to me.
Botanics Heat protection shine serum 30ml - I have fine hair and this is too much for it, will give to my friend with thick long hair which it should suit much better.

Will Sell
S5 Illuminate Serum 30ml - was free with purchase of one of their other serums I use which is fantastic, just this one is not for my skin type.

TA
Skyn Icelandic relief eye cream 5ml - 2ml left but had dried up

UU
Estee Lauder Take it away makeup remover lotion 30ml - was free with purchase and great size for keeping in my travel bag. I have another part-used to already replace it.

So far that's 5/166 (with plenty more still to count!)

Argh, Am@zon isn't putting up the reviews for my latest NBI's, a variety of shampoos and conditioners from the Ultimate Blends range, v. nice they are too.
So here's another NBI instead, and oh boy, I like this. It's a blurring cream - the Hero Project Double Blur HD Ready Skin Perfector. One of the nicest things I've been offered in a while. I'm not sure if I like it that much more than Magic Blur, to pay the £24 RRP, but it's certainly lovely. I got told that I looked really well yesterday when wearing it, result.

Hi everyone

Been away for a bit, so some UUs:
Ladival suncream, factor 25 - was a freebie in a running race goodie bag, actually really good, WBA. I usually burn very easily even with factor 30+ but didn't with this.
L'oreal nude magique BB powder - pretty good to set makeup although nothing exceptional, WBA
Sanctuary body lotion - prefer body butter, so TA half the bottle to get back under my luggage weight limit. Came in a big set.

Re 2018 purchases, mine are pretty simple:
No makeup buying except mascara!
The only skincare/toiletries I have a problematic stash of is toner. Everything else is on 1 in 1 out at the moment. :A

Planning to stock up on body butter in the sales, but 400ml total should see me through 2018.
