    Yesterday I bought a Snake Venom eye cream from Bodycare and today have ordered 2 Bath and Body Works handcreams from EBay.
    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 remember when those Loreal lipsticks were released. Did they all relate to different actresses from Desperate Housewives and we’re matched to your skin tone? I remember buying one but not liking the colour or maybe even the actress I was paired with then throwing it away because I didn’t like it.

    Haha yeah I think that was the range, didn’t even watch desperate housewives, I’m just a sucker for nudes. *Looks at 3 relatively new pink/nude lipsticks/glosses that look the same :doh:

    Few more UU to report...

    Body shop strawberry hand cream - WBA lovely scent and does the job very well.

    Superdrug sensitive roll on deodorant - WBA smells pleasant and does the job well.

    Colgate plax gentle care mouthwash - WBA HG this is really pleasant to use, not at all strong.

    Lush pink peppermint foot lotion - WBA HG I love the scent of this and it sinks in quickly. Perfect consistency and does the job really well.

    I love this one. If you are a beauty pie member, Japanfusion cleanser is a good alternative.


    My Paula's Choice ordered arrived so 2 INs:

    10% Azeliac Acid Booster - I want to try all their boosters but they aren't cheap.
    1% Retinol Travel Size - just want to try before buying full size.

    A lipstick I listed has bids on it so will be one out when paid hopefully. I also ordered few bits from Beauty Pie - should arrive next week.

    Hope all well. Have a good weekend.

    I haven't tried Beauty Pie because I'm trying to clear the stash before buying more. Thanks for the recommendation, I'll bear it in mind :D

    I’m currently using Tweak’d by Nature Hair Treatment and am on the fence about it. MRM bought me a set of three tubes for Christmas so maybe a different variety will work better. Love the guy who presents this on QVC though x

    What’s your HG Foundation?

    The Urban Decay Naked Skin one! It matches my skin tone perfectly, I prefer a super lightweight formula and it just looks flawless on in my opinion... will definitely repurchase it but will try and use the NYX one first.
    Tweak'd by nature looks interesting! I try to stay away from QVC as my mum is hooked on it, but these products are very intriguing, wish you could see them in a shop to take a closer look.

    Sanctuary Body Butter set in a red case, 150ml each of the original Sanctuary body butter, Mande Lular Spa and Khyphi. This was BN and sealed from the charity shop DD volunteers at and was just £2.

    Superdrug Naturally Radiant Hot Cloth Cleanser - nice product to use but it broke me out, DD was finishing it off but stopped to use another cleanser and her breakouts improved, the tube was cut open and almost finished but we have TA the last bit. WNBA.

    TA Essence stay all day concealer - this is absolutely FINE* considering it cost next to nothing, I have had it for several years and used most of it but the colour doesn't really match me anymore, it has definitely gotten orangier! I was trying to finish it up but I have other products to use up that also look so much better.

    *nothing more than just fine though
