    One UU today:

    La Roche Posay Cicaplast Baume B5 100ml WDBA but I will buy the smaller size from now on. Love this stuff, it helps heal irritated skin, and it helps heal my scars a lot quicker than if I left them alone.

    This is a slow month for UUs for me, but I seem to have a few items that will run out before the end of the month, hopefully.

    I will have an OUT at some point in the next few days, the TIGI Colour Goddess Conditioner contains Mineral Oil and I have such a bad reaction to it, so I haven't opened it, and I'm going to return it to FeelUnique.

    One UU from last night:

    Sensodyne Pronamel Multi-Action Toothpaste 75ml WMBA but I'm not sure. This didn't really help with the occasional sensitivity I have.

    And one UU this morning:

    Caudalie Moisturising Toner 100ml WNBA. I did use this up as a toner but as a body mist. I won't be buying this again, it's nothing exciting.

    Body Shop Cammomile Silky Cleansing Oil - WNBA, lovely product, useless packaging.


    L'oreal Ever Riche Shampoo 250ml - loved this, it is thick and luxurious, super lathery and leaves my hair soft.

    Urban Decay Easy blush
    L'Occitane Jasmine & Bergamot fragrance

    I think the fragrance will be gone very soon.


    I also threw away another nail colour: China Glaze Ruby Pumps. The bottle looked half empty and the product was a bit gloopy. Wasn't particularly attached to it so it is gone.
    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!

    Two TAs today:

    Pixi Rose Cream Cleanser 135ml This was nice but it went off way too quickly. Must be a bad batch. I can't be bothered to return it to Marks and Spencer, so out it goes. It had a lovely scent though. Pity about the mould.

    Colgate Sensitive Pro Relief Toothpaste 19ml I can't use this. It's drying my lips out and it's making my teeth more sensitive than they are. I would not recommend it.

    And a few INs today:

    Sensodyne Strong & Bright Enamel Toothpaste 75ml
    Impulse Instant Crush 75ml
    Impulse Why Not? 75ml
    Superdrug Pro Care Whitening Floss Tape 40m
    Dentek Comfort Clean Floss Picks 60 count
    Alkimi Cleansing Melt 50ml


    A few essentials, and some new products to try :)
