    First UU of the month for me:

    Wizyoung Royal Jelly Sheet Mask WPNB. This was alright, but the fit of it was terrible and it was too wet. I know that's a good thing for a sheet mask, but it was dripping everywhere. I'm trying to use up my little collection of sheet masks and not buy any more as I feel terrible for using a one use item. I don't count these in my stash total overall, but I've only got 4 more to UU.
  • Thanks for the new thread, I'm in again.

    Still doing my challenges to reduce my stash:

    One UU from this morning:

    Nivea Pure Invisible Deodorant 50ml WPBA. This was alright, I still prefer the Stress Protect one. Hm. I'll try the Soft and Gentle one again to see which I like best.

    UU - Garnier Conditioner. Cheap and cheerful, I like this. I have The Beauty Pie one to use.
    Run a bath and used a TBS bath bomb. I like these too - will not go to Lush again easily.

    UUs whilst travelling:

    Nuxe aquabella lotion sample: WMB, very watery in texture but seemed ok.

    Nuxe aquabella exfoliating gel sample: WNB, nothing special.


    Clarins hydraquench gel sample: WMB, moisturised skin. Would be curious to see how the ALDI dupe compares.

    UU: Liz Earle No 1 Botanical fragrance. I'm not a big fan of florals and therefore would not repurchase nor ask for this as a gift. I'm pretty happy as at the beginning of the year I had 9 fragrances and now I'm down to 4. Don't think I can finish another before the end of the year but will rotate them and see.


    I am however interested in jointing Scent Box and have sent a link to Santa (MRM). We'll see.


    I have also ordered from Ebay a small bottle of Amika Bombshell spray. I had one of these in a Birchbox and it lasted me months so happy to get this at a low price.


    Will need to ring Urban Decay today as don't know what's going on with my order. Payment hasn't been taken. Bet it's out of stock!!


    Also, awaiting the foundation I bought from Facebook and think I may have been scammed. Will update if it arrives.



    Also, I'm considering buying the Elemis TSV whch is coming up this week. I have earmarked the body products for my friend at work who appreciates these as gifts, I'll keep the rose oil and PCMC and probably sell on the balm.
    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!

    Boots Essentials Curl Creme 200ml - I must have had this in use for about 4 years, you only need a small amount plus I can't use it every time I wash my hair as it is a bit drying so it just lasted forever, it is effective apart from the drying part. Don't know if this is still available as I don't see the Essentials range in the stores I go in - WMBA if it is.
