Finished a mac blusher bought it in 2015 so so long ago. Amazing duration and natural colour, I have others in reserve but would buy again.

I finished a cerave tester, nice but have such a pile of body moisturizer

I really fancy trying a MAC Blush when I have a lot less of them! Are they all baked, do you know?

I tried Lipcote ages ago and it’s absolutely horrible. Let us know how you get on with this

I’d like to know too. Lipcote was vile.

I will report back when I have tried it for a few days, going in caravan for a short break today, next up is me trying to pack the make up equivalent to a capsule wardrobe, I always put in what I think I need then add a few more brushes, another lipstick, more eyeshadow................:o

Hi everyone 1 UU from me today Oskia Renaissance Cleansing Gel. Loved this and WMBA in the future. Takes make up off nicely too but I think more of a second cleanse for me.
I also sold an Estee Lauder Lipstick. Sleek contour Kit, Doucce Travel Size mascara and a Bare Minerals Blush on Ebay. All posted. I have sold 7 make up bags as well. I had around 20 from different GWP offers and none of them ever been used..

It would be nice if there was an alternative to the make up bag, another mini maybe, I ended up with loads of them aswell, I donated mine to the charity shop in the end.

IKWYM. We go to Lanzarote soon. I’m planning on taking my Bobbi Brown Bronze Shimmerbrick for eyeshadow and my new Colourpop Supershock shadows. For face I’m taking my Hourglass palette. Haven’t thought about lips yet but will probably be just a gloss.

We bought Emma a Liz Earle kit for Christmas which contained their Superskin lip treatment and she really raves about that.

Indeed. I also donated a couple of them to charity shop last month. It is almost wherever I look at home, there is a make up bag now. Most of them are also not very functional so never get used.

Wow. You managed to sell a lot.

I have been ruthless recently and clearing my wardrobe, cupboards. Taken a couple of bags to charity and sold some good stuff on Ebay. I'm overwhelmed with the stuff I have.

I have their Powder Blush in Diva Don't Care colour. It is really pigmented. Don't think it is baked

It's quite gratifying to see some of my faves in this list. Superdrug own brand stuff really is fantastic.

Has anyone used Face Halo? Not sure how micro fibre would feel on the face.. :think: Seems like a good idea to reduce single use cotton pads.. I would use 2-3 each time so would have to buy 7 3-packs because they would go in a weekly wash, so that’s approx £120! :eek: A dark wash or light wash though?!

One UU from last night:

The Body Shop Camomile Cleansing Butter 90ml WDBA and will do on Monday when it's payday. Love this stuff. I was trying to make the last few uses of this last a bit longer, so I've been using the Pixi Double Cleanse lately. That's nice, but I still love this so much. The smell is beautiful as well.

This is a new find for me too. Leaves my skin feeling so good.

UU Decleor Herbal Clay Mask. Love this too but have alternatives in my stash.

UU Bath and Body Works Marshmallow Pumpkin Latte handwash. Lovely fragrance. Have replaced with Liz Earle handwash. Nice Spring fragrance.
