Our Tiny Bees Cocoa & Honey Bath Melt - been focusing on LUSH tbh as this will last longer
Superdrug Ice Wine Eye Cream - UU

Urban decay all-nighter eyeliner - may have lost this need to find it

UU Palmers Coconut Oil hair treatment - I got 4 uses out of this, which I am pleased with as I think it was about £1.50. I have to say it works well on ends but really dried out my scalp so WNBA more likely to try something more gentle and actually vegan
Because olaplex is damn expensive but it's so good for my hair!Current debt-free wannabe stats:Credit cards: £9,705.31 | Loans: £4,419.39 | Student Loan (Plan 1): £11,301.00 | Total: £25,425.70Debt-free target: 21-Feb-2027

I'm in again! Thanks for the new thread sstevo!
I had 5UUs in February which is a pretty good month for me. This includes a Herbal Essences shampoo that had at least one last squeeze in it that my cleaning lady threw away!
I also had two Ins - Aveda shampoo and conditioner - trying to move to more sustainable manufacturers.
I already have one UU in March: Burts Bees Hand Salve - this was quite metholly and sticky so WNBA
Lots of exciting things nearing their ends including a blusher and an eyeshadow. I hope to be able to report great things in March.8 -

Have some items that I have ordered to report
Nail Polish Direct sent me a £10 Off £50 code so I have ordered replacement full size bottles for the minis I love which are OPI Edinburgh-er and Tatties, Rice Rice Baby and You’ve Got that Glasglow Plus 2 x Zopa Pepper (one for Emma. Is meant to be a good dupe for OPI Skyfall, replacement Orly Sec n Dry top coat and a mini cuticle oil to meet the price threshold.
I had a birthday code of £5 off from Tge Body Shop so ordered a replacement Chamomile Cleansing Butter. The website also allowed me to use 20% off code so got free shipping.
Also we are low on handwash. Bought 2 x Bath & Body Works hand wash from Facebook Seller.
