    DD needed a new perfume so I gave her a bottle of Philosophy Living Grace so I'll call that an out.

    UU the other hotel sample - I was using it as an under arm shaving cream rather than on my hair.
    I also UU my superdrug acetone free nail polish remover. It's great and WDBA but it's only a small bottle so I am considering finding something bigger to reduce packaging? I am thinking of trying Mineral Fusion Nail Polish Remover which has good reviews and is acetone free and cruelty free and contains double the product.

    Just painted my nails in OPI Lost My Bikini in Molokini, probably one of my all time fave colours.

    Lacura hot cloth cleanser
    The Body Shop Camomile cleansing butter
    Bath and Body Works Shea Butter hand cream
    Snake Venom eye cream
    Living Proof Restore hair detangler
    Tweak'd hair mask
    ABC cleansing bar
    [STRIKE]ABC body lotion[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]Laura Geller Spackle[/STRIKE]
    Lacura Q10 serum



    ABC Body lotion. HG. Another in stash. There is an ABC QVC TSV (do I win anything for three acronyms in a row?) on 24 July 2019. Hoping it has both the skin wash and body lotion in it.


    UU: Ultrasun SPF30 tinted moisturiser. This was sample size from TILI box. Would not repurchase. It is too sticky on application and afterwards. Have finished the tube by applying to my arms today.






    UU : Laura Geller Hydrating Spackle. Would not repurchase this particular version.[/QUOTE]

    One UU this morning:

    Bumble and Bumble Don’t Blow It (Fine) 150ml WDBA and have done. This lasted me just over 7 months with near daily use. It helps keep my hair under control when I air dry it. I've not used my hairdryer in months with using this.

    UU : Bath and Body Works Summer Lemonade body lotion. Love their shea formula. Have another full sized tube as I bought 2 at the same time.

    uu

    Philosophy Coconut Frosting 3 in 1 Shower Gel 480ml - lovely.


    TA


    Tanya Burr Lipgloss in Vampire Kisses - lovely formula but I don't wear lipgloss very often and this is a high maintenance red which would be transferred over my face when my hair got caught in it.


    Maybelline Lipstick in Hot Plum - lovely colour but not for me.


    2 x No7 GWP eyeshadows in Truffle - I like the colour but it is too dark for all over my lid and too sparkly for the crease so that just leaves liner which I rarely use eyeshadow for..


    Clinique Pink Chocolate Quad - I have kept the mid brown and the dark brown (both matte) and got rid of the chalky white, the pink which gets hard pan constantly and the palette.

    Seeing this post reminded me to ask which empty magnetic palette did you buy? I could really do with getting rid of some of the stuff I have and just keeping the shadows that I know I will use.

    500ml Soap & Glory Butter Yourself moisture lotion 6/50
    100ml decanted hand lotion (Lacura I think) 7/51

    I am hopeful that 5 more items will be UU in July and it is time to let go (TA) some things that I no longer use and cannot GA.
