Another UU from yesterday:
SVR Sun Secure Hydrating Milk SPF50+ 100ml WNBA. This had an odd texture and it broke me out on my face. I finished it up by using it on my arms and hands.0 -
Three INs today:
Bumble and Bumble Hairdresser’s Invisible Oil Heat/UV Primer 60ml
Pureology Perfect 4 Platinum Shampoo 250ml
Pureology Perfect 4 Platinum Conditioner 250ml
Some new goodies to try in the near future. I'm going to finish my current shampoo and conditioner and my current heat protection before trying these. I wanted to mix things up a bit and try something new0 -
Two use ups to report
Simple Kind To Eyes Make Up Remover Pass - WMBA , not a huge fan of wipes but they did the job well
The Body Shop Italian Summer Fig Body Lotion - I bought this when our local branch was closing down and they were selling the mini bottles for about £1 each. This one smelt lovely but had a bit bit of a watery consistency (although it absorbed quickly because of that!)
Stash total: 198Less is the new more0 -
One UU tonight:
La Roche Posay Hydreane Legere Moisturiser 40ml WDBA and have. This is my favourite moisturiser, nice and light and moisturising.0 -
One UU this morning:
The Body Shop Vitamin E Aqua Boost Essence Lotion 160ml WNBA. This was nice but my face didn't agree with it. I used this up on my body and applied it before applying a body moisturiser, this is nice to add a bit more hydration to my body.
One TA as well:
Tigi Bed Head Ego Boost Split End Mender 237ml I can't get on with this. Every time I use this my scalp gets so irritated and I can't bare it. No one in my family wanted to try it either0 -
1 UU this morning
Batiste 2 in 1 Invisible Dry Shampoo and Conditioner with Orange and Pomegranate - WDNBA!! It made my hair look really greasy, I had to apply it an hour before I left the house so that it wouldn’t look really greasy ��Less is the new more0 -
Total stash: 197Less is the new more0

kadison I am struggling at the moment and finding the Makeup Rehab reddit really helpful. Lots of good ideas on there for satisfying yourself with your existing stuff without buying more.
Some Youtubers have been doing videos called "How many years of eyeshadow do I own". I worked out that I have about 5 years of eyeshadow and 12 years of lipstick. This is also helping me to resist buying (although as Dolly84 says it also stresses me out!)
Been on holiday this week and took all my travel sizes with me including a Stila palette I was really excited about and have been "saving for travel" for ages (bought it in May 2017). It's incredibly powdery and has no colour pay-off at all. Cross about this. It will be my next panning project once I've finished my current eyeshadow.0 -
My last uu for August
Bourjois CC Cream - WNBA, it was OK but that's all I can really say. It didn't help that it was too light for me over the summer so I had to mix it with a Rimmel foundation which is too orange.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler
