    physician formula in a light colour. It is discontinued as the soft launch of the range was never extended.
  • UU:

    5. Mitchum roll on deodorant - HG have more in stash.

    6. Philosophy pure grace shower gel WMBA but have plenty of shower gel at the moment.

    7 Philosophy pure grace body moisturiser WMBA but again have plenty.

    8. Philosophy hope in a jar 7.5ml sample WNBA was ok but prefer others.

    9/10/11 Pixi glow gift set - GA to DD's friend got as a GWP a few months ago but could be years before I ever got around to using it and I'm trying to be ruthless.

    12. Essence lipstick - as above.
    No more buying toiletries

    I have their Bronzer Booster which is gorgeous. Did you buy the highlighter in the UK?

    I wonder if this is the same kit I received as a GWP last year. Mine contained a small blush/highlighter, cream highlighter and lipgloss. I gave the lipgloss away at Christmas. I’m actually sending the blush to the FB recipient I mentioned yesterday along with the Lacura copy Charlotte Tilbury bronzerduo, ESSIE mini polish, L’Occitane Body Lotion and Burts Bees lip shimmer. Like you, it will take me at least a year to get to use the makeup.

    UU - Palmers solid cocoa butter! Never thought this day would come. WNBA as I am not convinced of the ethics of Palmers parent company, but as a product I love it. For the first time in years I have just 3 moisturisers to get through, moisturisers are my stash problem!
    UU - Lush Bucks Fizz body conditioner - came in a gift set I got half off on boxing day but WNBA this smells of orange Calpol, NOT A FAN
    UU - Lush Luxury Xmas Pud bath bomb shout out to VALM for suggesting cutting up, I got two baths out of this but it was a nightmare to cut to be honest!

    UU - Vichy Aqualia Thermal Rehydrating Serum: Nice serum but probably not for harsh winter weather.

    TA - Clinique Eye Pencil I bought 6 years ago.

    20 Ateliar Cologne 40ml body lotion Rose Anonyme Again the packaging was awful. Had to cut the bottle open to get product out.


    Have one more of these left to which I still have the corresponding perfume so will use them next.


    I also posted my question about night cream on various QVC associated facebook pages and the product that was recommended the most was a Judith Williams Retinol cream. I am watching one on Ebay and hope to pick this up reasonably cheaply.


    My concealer has practically run out this morning as well. It is the Bare Minerals Bare Pro one which is contained in a lipstick style bullet. I can't wind the product up any more however managed to get some onto a brush. Will have a look at Boots for the NYX one I like and think I still have enough AP for this.
