    Well. here is the final list.
    • No 7 protect and perfect eye cream. Spluttering (LHP)
    • [STRIKE]No7 protect and perfect serum. Spluttering (LHP)[/STRIKE]
    • Garnier Aloe toner. 1/3
    • Paul Smith Rose perfume. [STRIKE]I also expect to finish a bottle of Amazing Grace. Both spluttering.[/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]Shower gels. Molten Brown Dewy Lily of the Valley and Star anise[/STRIKE] and Body shop Moringa both mini and full.
    • [STRIKE]Aussie moist shampoo large 1/2[/STRIKE]
    • Conditioner: A full- but aging -Aussie leave in spray. If it smells funky I will ditch it.
    • Hand cream: Tony Moly banana hand milk. Used regularly but found a bodyshop one to use too.
    • Foot butter Champneys 1/2
    • [STRIKE]Foot scrub Champneys Spluttering.[/STRIKE]
    • [STRIKE]Sephora sheet eye mask[/STRIKE]

    [STRIKE]2 1 of the Primark Vitamin A sheet masks ( I really dislike sheets and unfortunately have about 7 different ones left.)[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]Body shop peppermint bubble bath (now 2 baths left)[/STRIKE]
    • Body shop blue corn mask 1/2 (starting to smell a bit off-may be a TA) (used 1)
    I used up things that weren't on the list too. I wasn't very committed in using some things. I'm going to GA the Aussie spray to DD. I just don't use it and my advent calendar has some leave in Aveda. Now my Philosophy perfume is gone I will focus on the Paul Smith-I have to confess to using the Paul Smith Rose as an air freshener (and it's still not going down.!)
    Ins this month:
    Paul Smith clarifying shampoo. Needed but probably more extravagent than needed to be.
    The November Birch box.
    A foundation sample from Kat Von D which was really good actually.
    An M and S beauty calendar that I am looking forward to starting tomorrow (and I didn't need it.)
  • Final UU of November:

    Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish Body. WNBA. Liked the fragrance but found it a bit heavy.

    Scores:

    UU 6
    IN 8

    Hopefully December will be more fruitful!

    I'm afraid I gave in to some of the BF bargains and I have orders coming from Clarins, Elemis and from Boots :o

    I also wanted the Nivea advent calendar but decided £20 wasn't a good enough price.....then it went to £10 so I bought one! I will use almost everything in it though so it will be useful.

    I will be back later with score on the door, but seeing the post above from kadison I thought that some people may not be aware that Give and Makeup is no longer operating. Link to CH here.

    I have been using body sprays as room spray and like you find it takes time. I got sick of seeing the Hope Cove in the bathroom at work so finished it off as poo pourri.

    Was it the new Kat Von D sample you had?
    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!
