    Bought a Derma Vie Anti Wrinkle cream for 99p yesterday. The texture actually is lovely on first impression but the flowery fragrance not so. Will persevere. If I have a reaction to it, will use it as body lotion.

    Couple of more UUs - it is a good month!
    Treets Body Sugar Scrub. Mango & Jasmine - Bought this from TKMaxx and it was nice but didn't last long. I'm trying to UU my body scrubs and will not replace them as I want to use gloves instead. I have a Soap and Glory one to UU next.

    No7 Protect & Perfect Intense Moisturising Body Serum - Lovely product and not bad value for money. I think this was part of a Christmas gift set. I WMBA if it is on an offer. I have few other body lotions/butters to UU first though.

    Nivea Good-bye Cellulite Gel-Cream: LHJ. I liked this but not sure if it is still on sale. I think it is especially great for summer as it has a really cooling effect. WMBA.

    One UU from last night:

    SVR Sebiaclear Hydra Moisturiser sample 5ml WPNB as a full size. This was alright but a bit thick and paste like. Hm.

    One OUT from the other day:

    Avene Mineral Fluid SPF50+ 40ml

    I sold this on Reddit to someone, at least they will make use of it.

    Lush Dreamtime Bath Oil WDBA. This was lovely. Such a lovely scent.

    REN Vita Mineral Emollient Rescue Cream 50ml WNBA. I think this was an Impulse purchase. Used up as a foot cream.

    Count me in for the Finish 7 by Autumn Challenge too.

    I had the Urban Decay Easy blush (from Gwen Stefani palette) and NARS Cruella lip crayon left. I am going to roll the blush over as I have substantial pan in it now but intend to get rid of the crayon at the end of this month. I have to sharpen it every day now to get good pigmentation and the formula is drying so I'll consider it done then.

    My list:-

    Urban Decay Easy blush from Gwen Stefani palette
    MAC Brave lipstick
    Avon eyeshadow (from Warm Cashmere duo)
    Urban Decay Darkhorse eyeshadow from Naked palette
    Wet and Wild Contour duo - yellow powder only
    Benefit Boing concealer
    OPI mini.

    I'm still using the OPI Coca Cola Red but hoping this will be done by the end of the month too so I can roll another mini in.

    Today am wearing OPI Red my Fortune Cookie (a favourite) with Coca Cola Red on accent fingers. I can see the difference. Not sure anyone else can.

    Hello everyone, gorgeous weather this weekend. Hope everyone has enjoyed it at least a bit.

    I have 2 UUs

    Pixi Double Cleanser and Ordinary The Buffet.
    I will repurchase the double cleanser once I run out of my current makeup remover.
    I already have another The Buffet in my stash. I use this instead of a moisturiser after my Ordinary acids. The result is amazing.
    ally.
