    I look forward to read the thread tomorrow but for now i have some INs and OUTs to report :

    I have bought Clarins Bronzing Compact from the duty free on my way to Berlin. I also bought Lancome sheet masks x 6 on my way back. They were 3 for 2 and massively cheaper than the actual price which is a novelty.

    I also recycled some more products with Clarins and got 3 more minis (2 x lipsticks and 1 x lip oil). I love them both and use regularly so it is a good replacement.

    UU'ed a bottle of Elvive shampoo and started using Bumble&Bumble Invisible Oil instead. It feels nice on hair but still doesn't give me a sleek finish better than Elvive. I only used a couple of times though.

    Also UU'ed UMA Intensely Nourishing Hair Oil - it is ok, I did like it at times and didn't like it other times. Has a strong scent and it is pricey so probably wouldn't buy again. At least a glass bottle that can be recycled though.

    One UU from this morning:

    Lush Sleepy Body Lotion 95g WDBA and will do. Love this scent, and the lotion sinks in quite quickly on slightly damp skin. I might buy some more next week.

    Been having a !!!! few weeks at work, and I'm genuinely want another job. It's a good job I'm skint until payday as I can't do any retail therapy to cheer me up.

    Leighton Denny Colour & Go Nail Paint Duo - this was a double ended thing with Angel Dust top coat at one end and Gold Dust at the other, I used the Angel Dust ages ago and got the last use of the gold side last night, it had gone very gloopy and wouldn't move much when I tipped the bottle so I only just managed.

    One IN today:

    Child’s Farm Baby Moisturiser Shea & Cocoa Butter 250ml

    I finished the Sleepy Body Lotion a few days ago, and body butter is too heavy on my skin. And I was struggling to find a cheap body lotion that has no Mineral Oil or Petroleum in it, and I posted in the skincare group I'm in on Facebook, and someone suggested this. For £2.99, I'm very impressed. From what I've tested of it on my arm, you only need a little bit and it sinks in very fast.

    Nothing new out except the flomar concealer which I love but I run out of them so fast, it feels very poor value compared to a dearer one that lasts longer but I suddenly seem to have loads of space on the bedside locker- Imagine seeing the surface.

    I have been poorly for the last month with recurrent infections. I have not been panning as much as usual but slowly getting there.
