    DD has taken a few things off my hands:

    Burts Bees Lipbalm
    Mac Fix + - I'd used half of this but don't really have a need for it but DD will use it daily.
    Avon Setting Spray - this was brand new.

    I bought DD a Charlotte Tilbury lipstick for her birthday next week, you could get two samples with the order and whilst I don't normally bother with samples anymore I wanted to try a couple of things so I got the Magic Cream and the glow primer (can't remember the name), will be giving these a go tomorrow.

    I posted this on the October thread!

    My PP List this month
    The Ordinary Rose Hip oil
    Bath & Body Works A Thousand Wishes shower gel
    Colourpop lip scrub. 
    Liz Eerle Skin Repair
    Lacura hand cream
    ABC Body lotion
    LUSH Cup o Coffee
    Elemis Lime Blossom cleanser 
    Elemis Apricot Toner


    One week left. The body lotion and cleanser are now stored upside down and I feel they will be finished this week. The toner is low but probably has 2 weeks left in it.  The Skin Repair tube is light.
    i did throw away the Colourpop lip scrub because I just kept getting a sticky residue on my face with it.
    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!

    Hope everyone is keeping well. 
    3 x UU:

    2 x Superdrug baby petroleum jelly - WMBA, would defintely not use it on a baby as it is very thick and balm like. However, it worked well with keeping more skin moisturised.
    Oral b satin tape floss - Another one in stash 

    Have a put a Revolution eye shadow palette in my shopping basket and will purchase if it's still available at the end of the month.

    Two UUs from yesterday:

    Bumble and Bumble Don’t Blow It (Fine) 150ml - WDBA and have done. This is my favourite hair product, helps keep my hair under control when I air dry it, which is most days. Replaced with the smaller tube I got a month or two ago. 

    First Aid Beauty Pure Skin Face Cleanser 56.7g - WPNBA. This was alright but nothing startling.

    Another 2 UU

    John Frida conditioner.  Need to buy another though have a tiny bottle that came in my hair colour kit to finish.
    Marcelle BB Cream.  This came in a Birchbox.  The colour and coverage were good but it oxidised during the day.  Nice to try.

    I've given 2/3rds of a bottle of Prada Candy Eua Florale to DD, I love Prada Candy and whilst this is lovely it isn't what I was expecting so I let her have it and I have opened Prada Candy Kiss which is along the lines of the original and is really gorgeous.

    UU Bath & Body Works Espresso hand wash.  I do like these though I do realise that B&BW only have a small catalogue of generic fragrance.  Have started a Toasted Vanilla Chai one.

    Two INs from yesterday:

    Nivea Pearl & Beauty 50ml
    Oral B Satin Tape 25m

    And one UU from this morning:

    Nivea Stress Protect 50ml - WDBA if I can find it. It's harder to find this one as it lasts all day. 
  • Another UU today:

    Aveda cherry almond shampoo. WBA. Really like this.
