    UU - L'Occitane volumizing shampoo - okay, but WNBA as no better than Herbal Essences IMO.

    UU - Cath Kidston alpacas hand cream - I did not buy this, but WNB. It is okay and much better than the other hand creams from CK I have tried, but way too highly scented and there are better products out there.

    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!

    I’ve tried that bronzer before and found it quite muddy.

    uu


    Ren Rose Centifolia Hot Cloth Cleanser 150ml - replaced with another of the same from the stash.


    Ren Clearcalm 3 Clarity Restoring Mask 50ml - WNBA, very pleasant to use and skin does look brighter but it is expensive for what you get plus there is just too much unrecyclable packaging left.

    One UU this morning:

    Bumble and Bumble Hairdresser's Invisible Oil Shampoo + Conditioner sample WBA but I'll see how I feel after I've used the mini size bottles of each. My hair does feel nice after using it though :)

    ABC body lotion
    Neutrogena Hydroboost eye cream
    ABC skinwash
    Nivea deodorant
    Bath & Body Works mint handcream

    I finished the balance of the ABC skinwash that was left after I decanted into my travel bottle this morning. Have pulled out the last of the Boots Extracts 75ml body wash (Peppermint). Used quite a bit of it to wash my brushes and sponges though. I now only have left in my bodycare drawer a matching set of Liz Earle shower gel and body lotion which I've now earmarked for a friend for Christmas. Am going to buy three sets of shower gel and body lotion from Bath and Body Works for myself.

    I was looking at that Elle mag. How dark is the contour stick?
    I'm one step up from vampire in skin tone so wouldn't be able to use it if it's too dark.
    Some sample sized perfumes in along with an atomiser from Penhaligon's. And just as I'd finished a far too marshmallowy Armani one.
    Trying to finish off Lush Celestial moistouriser. Far, far too greasy and now have the biggest breakout in history WDNB.

    Valentino Uomo Perfume sample WB as a full size as this is a lovely scent.
