    Okay I also TA:
    Dermalogica ultra smoothing eye serum
    I was determined to finish this up and I probably would have this month but honestly I think it was really off, when I tipped the little bit left over out it was discoloured and yeah goodbye extremely overpriced highend product that I definitely WNBA
  • maybeline eye brow pencil used up. I would never buy again as it was so soft it was a little tacky and only lasted an application before paring was needed. It was used up so fast that i was beyond disappointed and then when there was about 2 inches left, pared it and bang ... no lead left! terrible used up so fast and less product than thought.

    i gave a way a powder as bought the wrong colour,

    Two UUs this evening:

    Pixi Glow Mud Cleanser 15ml WNBA. This was okay but I felt that it was making my skin break out slightly.


    Votary Super Seed Facial Oil 2ml sample
    WPNB as a full size.

    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

    I am loving the Elf concealer.

    2 INs yesterday.

    Makeup Revolution stick Foundation. Bought on dolly84’s recommendation. My NYX one was spluttering yesterday. Will try and get the bottle open to get more product out.

    Cotton wool pads.

    Was proud that I didn’t succumb to 3 for 2 on makeup.

    Think the Dove Body Lotion will be finished today.

    uu


    Lancome La Vie Est Belle Body Lotion 50ml - this was lovely.


    TA


    Superdrug Stacking Pot Trio - these just don't come clean when I wash them and I have other pots which I have saved which are better.


    Body Shop Facial Brush - had it a long time, it does the job with facial wash so I may buy something similar in the future to use instead of scrubs.

    UU Dove Body Lotion. I really enjoyed this. Would repurchase. I have an E45 cream in use and have a matching shower gel and body lotion to use next. Want to finish the Elemis Sea Lavender and Samphire shower gel first so may have to repurchase E45 cream to go with this.

    Haven't done too well this month really. Maybe there will be a lot of roll overs for April.

    Benefit Lemon Aid
    Hourglass Dim Light powder
    Marc Jacobs Sonic Truth mini lipstick
    NARS Albatross
    [STRIKE]OPI I Theodora You [/STRIKE]
    Urban Decay Darkhorse

    Four days left and these two products will have to be rolled over to the next Seasonal Challenge. Who else is in for Finish 7 by Summer?


    My list:-


    Benefit Lemon Aid
    Urban Decay Darkhorse
    NARS Outlaw blush
    NARS Gilda blush
    MAC Lost Invite mini lipgloss
    OPI Tickle my Francey
    Philosophy Pure Grace


    I want to finish Lemon Aid, the MAC lipgloss, OPI Tickle my Francey and Philosophy Pure Grace (I think this has gone off and am only using it as room spray now).


    If I hit pan on Darkhorse and the two NARS blushes I will be happy. The blushes are part of the NARS Killing Me Softly palette.

    One UU from yesterday that I forgot about:

    Nivea Pearl and Beauty Deodorant 50ml WBA and have, but I still prefer the Stress Protect one but I can't find it anywhere :( Does the job this and it's normally on offer for £1 somewhere.

    I've nearly finished my work hand cream, which I've brought home to finish.

    I'm trying to curb my spending on toiletries and skincare as I want to save up some money and buy a car. I passed my test last month, finally! :D
