I’m proud of myself for keeping to a minimum make up stash, but I’m really bored now and would like to try a foundation free glowy look. Have treated myself to Pixi which I have never tried, it should be arriving soon:
IN
Pixi Flawless Beauty Primer Even Skin
Pixi Illuminating Tint & Conceal
Pixi Glow Cake Blush - Guilded Bare
UU
Neals Yard Beauty Sleep Body Butter - love this scent
TA
Dior primer - never got on with this but held on to it because I felt guilty about the price, it’s old now so time to let go!Rimmel blush - did the job but old now
MAC highlighter - nice but nearly finished and old now
Max Factor honey lacquer nude lip gloss - GWP, not sure this nude suited me and not fussed by tacky lip gloss atm
Not counting sunscreen but had somehow managed to accumulate 6 ageing bottles (avoid P20, stains badly!) replaced with 2 fresh ones.Considering buying Silly George liner bond lashes, has anyone tried them?4 -
Update re: Finish 7 by Summer Challenge:-Rollin in Dough eyeshadow - repressed. Hope to finish it this week.NARS Gilda Blush - hit pan.NARS Outlaw Blush - this is looking as thin as the Gilda one so hopefully will hit pan soon.These three items are almost done so will lump them together as a springboard: Marc Jacobs Infamous mini lipstick, Anastasia Beverley Hills lipgloss in Weekend Barbie and Bare Minerals loose Blush called Hint - Want the ABH lipgloss to be finished this week too. Am scraping the sides for product not.Smashbox matte eyeshadow from Full Exposure palette - expanding pan. Won't be finished this month but maybe next.Laura Geller Gilded Honey highlighter deluxe sample size - do have pan in this but still think it will last until Summer (same update)Hourglass Ambient Lighting powder in Dim Light - again I already have pan (same update).To be fair, I think the last two products will be still going after Summer.
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!

UUs:
Oral b satin floss tape - HG
Superdrug acetone free nail polish remover - WNBA, not as drying as others but takes more effort to remove nail polish.
Superdrug 100% cotton wool pads - WMBA - better for use for wiping toners on face, rather than removing nail polish.
Ins:
4 x Oral b replacement electric toothbrush heads
Oral b long lasting fresh toothpaste7 -
Posted this on April thread in error.Updated PP ListSoap & Glory Clean, Girls shower gelDoctors Formula overnight face maskKorres Mango body creamLacura Glycholic padsProtan body lotionI am going to make an effort to finish that face mask by the end of the week. The Korres body cream tube is cut open however there is still loads of product left so not sure about that one. Everything else will probably be carried over.I am TA a Laura Geller eyeshadow trio today. The colours are purple and at not very well pigmented. It came in a Tili box so don't feel too bad about getting rid.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge.

I have two items that I might throw away lidl cien gentle cleanser. It just us not great and my skin feels tingly in a bad way after it. It does not remove makeup easily as it feels still unclean.
My new eyeliner in waterproof brown, it has the texture of melted plastic and was restrictive on the eyelid. It cost 2.38 euro and honestly I would have been better off with a cup of coffee than the eyeliner. It came off like a vinyl record that was melted.
I don't mind using a product that is great but what is the point of using up stuff that is just bad or not even great or flattering. I have nicer and sometimes it's just not worth it.
