    Superdrug Naturally Radiant Day Cream
    Superdrug Naturally Radiant Night Cream


    the above came with a freebie exfoliater, body lotion and sponge from the Vitamin E range.


    I don't have much moisturiser left so these will be in use soon.

    Bourjois Colour Boost Lip Crayon in Peach on the Beach - this was a bit too peachy and cheap looking when first applied but after some of the gloss wore off it was a nice coral colour - WNBA.

  • Still never got round to writing a full list! but have a few UU and no more IN's to I'm counting that as a win!

    UU's -Avon advance techniques hair masque - love this, smells so good and really nice on your hair.
    No.7 air brush away foundation - love this, they are the only brand that doesn't make me look orange!
    Barry M Primer - can't remember the full name of this but was a really good primer.

    Also had a bit of a purge and gave some old make up to my mum :)

    I have a number of INs today. First up is some INs from my Bumble and Bumble order:

    Bumble and Bumble Hairdresser’s Invisible Oil Shampoo 60ml
    Bumble and Bumble Hairdresser’s Invisible Oil Conditioner 60ml
    Bumble and Bumble Scalp Detox 150ml
    Bumble and Bumble Hairdresser's Invisible Oil Shampoo + Conditioner sample
    Bumble and Bumble Thickening Shampoo + Conditioner sample
    Bumble and Bumble Thickening Shampoo + Conditioner sample
    Bumble and Bumble Thickening Shampoo + Conditioner sample
    Bumble and Bumble Thickening Go Big Treatment Spray sample 30ml
    Bumble and Bumble Thickening Spray sample 30ml


    I only paid for the mini shampoo and conditioner and the Scalp Detox. I got a Thickening set for free because I spent so much, and you get two shampoo and conditioner samples with any order as well. A payday treat for me and my hair.

    And a small FeelUnique order:

    La Roche Posay Hydreane Legere Moisturiser 40ml
    Pureology Strength Cure Conditioner 250ml


    My daytime moisturiser is nearing the end, so this is a back up ready to go. And the Pureology Conditioner is to replace the one I couldn't use.

    And one impulse buy this morning:

    Sensodyne Gentle Whitening Toothpaste 100ml

    Total impulse purchase, but I've wanted to try it for a while.

    I'm going to make no purchases next month unless absolutely necessary.

    Ahhhhh, this month my spending has gone out of control again. Autumn blues..

    A lot of INs and few outs. I will be nice in October.

    Last few outs from September - a bottle of shampoo and shower gel. Also a bar of soap. All replaced from stash. I will repurpose Caudalie 3in1 moisturizer as hand cream. Not a great product but will work as a hand cream.
    See you in October..

    My last UU for the month:

    The Body Shop Vanilla Chai Body Butter 200ml - Love TBS! Had this as a gift but WDB.
    Tresemme Hair Mask - Can't remember what it was called but was effective and lasted a while. I enjoyed using it.

    I'm making a big move so it's lucky I still have things in stash. I'm taking one of everything plus one spare then top up when I go back to visit home!

    Last report for September:

    Ins:

    5 x Mitchum antiperspirant sprays

    1 x Eartherapy Body lotion from hotel in Uganda

    1 x Chap ice Lip balm from KLM business class

    2 x mini toothpastes from business class


    UUs:

    Primark travel dental floss - WNBA, nice product and compact size but didn't last too long. May as well stick to normal brand.

    Burt's bees shea butter hand repair cream - WNB, again another hotel freebie. Sinks nicely into skin but contains no sun protection.

    Pixi shea butter lip balm from a beauty box - WNB Did good enough job but nothing special and did not SPF.

    Marks & Spencers True red edp hand-bag size

    Sure roll-on anti-perspirant

    GA

    Half-bottle of boots spf30 sun spray to a colleague on a work trip in Uganda. She will need it more than me as I'm back in the good old Blighty. WNBA, not moisturising enough compared to Sainsbury's brand.
