Oh sorry for posting again so quick but I have been going through my stash and realised:
UU Avon Gel shine top coat! hurrah! this is a fantastic product but I prefer to get the barry m 2 in 1 as it takes up less space... need to use up another basecoat then will repurchase that from now on
UU Beauty UK nails in daffodil delight - absolutely love this shade and polish but it went gloopy very fast therfore WNBA0 -
I have 2 more UUs
Sample of Atelier Cologne Vetiver Fatale. May repurchase.
Batiste Dry shampoo- HG - another in stash.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!

One UU tonight:
Klairs Midnight Blue Calming Sheet Mask WDBA and will do in the future. Using this tonight to help calm my skin after I forgot to do my evening skincare routine a few times last week when I was really poorly. Hoping this helps calms things down.0 -
Another UU Boots Nail Polish Remover. Replacement bought already. Wearing OPI IS Miami Beet. Looks like a good dupe for Manicurist of Seville.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge.

Hope you all had a good Christmas. No ins for me for Christmas, it will be years before I actually need to ask for any toiletries for Christmas.

I realised yesterday that my foundation is about to run out. I’ve been using it for 3 months which is the usual rare that I go through them. This was the Bare Minerals Bare Pro Serum Foundation and I loved the sheerness and coverage however the packaging got really messy. Looking to buy something similar from Boots with AP. Any recommendations.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge.

UU this morning B. Superdrug Face Cream - would definitely buy again - this is my go to affordable vegan friendly face cream with an SPF... but this was phase 2 and I need phase 1 again as I was trying out phase 2 as I'm in between them... and it was okay but perhaps a bit heavy?
Tripped and fell into the LUSH sale yesterday :rotfl:
it's pretty much the only time I buy LUSH stuff and I plan to make it all last as long as possible! I wasn't planning to go until the last moment, and so didn't have a strategy, next year I will probably plan ahead if I think there is a chance of me going!
Merry Christmas Deer Gift Tin (which if I had planned ahead I might not have gotten tbh) which contained:
IN: Butterbear bath bomb
IN: Perle De Sel bath bomb
IN: Candy Cane Reusable Bubble Bar
IN: Puddy Holly Bubbleroon
IN: Cinders Shower Gel
IN: Bucks Fizz Body Conditioner
IN: The North Polar Bear Left the Tap on Soap
IN: Once Upon A Time Body Lotion
Merry Christmas gift box which contained:
IN: Golden Wonder bath bomb
IN: Shoot For The Stars bath bomb
IN: Luxury Lush Pud bath bomb
IN: Lord Of Misrule bath bomb
Also:
IN: Magic Wand Reusable Bubble Bar
Trying not to think about how much it cost even at half price :eek:0 -

I purposely stayed away yesterday and, although disappointed that there was no online sale, am relieved now that there wasn’t.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge.
