    UU my Dove shea butter bar of soap, this was gifted WNBI as not vegan but it was nice

    Some IN's from The Body Shop as my friend who sells it was doing a sale 

    Body Shop Festive Berry Hand Cream

    Body Shop Lemon Purifying Face Wash - tried this a few times and I like fruity stuff so much but even this feels a bit like using washing up liquid on my face!!! Will keep using it but it is a strange feeling!

    Hello all, hope you are well and enjoying the nice weather. I found out last week I'm facing redundancy, so wasn't in very high spirits but all is well otherwise. Not a lot to report - not bought or UU'ed anything. Put two products on eBay to sell though.
    Hi I am sorry to hear about this.  Redundancy is hard!!  Just concentrate on getting yourself through this period.

    UUs:

    Cerave salicyclic acid face & body cleanser - WBA, one bottle has lasted 6 months with twice a week use and my skin looks brighter and feels smoother. Will see how Superdrug dupe compares.

    Sainsbury's pure soap - WMBA, lasts ages and non drying.

    Boots beauty & hair vitamins - WMBA if on sale, more in stash.

    Sainsbury's Jasmine & pineflower room diffuser - WBA, best one I've used.

    I had an IN yesterday.  Bit of a back story here : I was off work on Monday.  I suffer from post nasal drip (not attractive) and I'd had a really bad night's sleep (or lack therof) on Sunday due to coughing so much and my head was banging.  I called in sick.  So, feeling sorry for myself once I'd slept off the headache I bingewatched a few YouTube videos by a Channel called Doctorly.  I think ssteveo would like it.  It's two dermatologists (one of whom is very easy on the eye!) talking about skincare however the products they recommend are all affordable.  Found myself thinking that I should try Niacinamide as I still have oily nose.  So I ordered a bottle from The Inkey List which came yesterday.  Have tried it today and the texture is pleasant - gel like. 
    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!

    UU Head and Shoulders Shampoo - it was fine, WNBA because I prefer other stuff more

    UU The Inkey List Polyglutamic acid serum - I was given this, it was good! I would purchase it again maybe, but more likely to try something else.

    IN Lush Rainbow Bubble Bar

    Been a bit manic here with home renovations so I am a bit behind.

    uu

    Ed Hardy Original EDP 100ml - this size of perfume is too big for me, I get a bit bored, this was nice but not special enough to re-buy.

    GA

    Library of Fragrance Wet Grass 50ml - gave the last half of the bottle to DD as we both love it and it was the last one of a small stash we bought on clearance at Boots.  WBA.

    I have some ins via DD:

    Revolution Foundation Stick
    Wet n Wild Photo Focus Foundation
    2 x lip glosses
    Revolution Chocolate Orange palette.

    The foundations are great but I don't actually like lip gloss and am only trying to use them because it seems such a waste otherwise, I may put them in the car to use that way.  The palette isn't really right for me but I'm not sure what to do with it as it is nearly new but has a broken hinge.

    My updated lists.  I will start a 7 by Autumn list but will probably change things up a bit.  I am using the concealer but it will take forever as will the eyeliner, the eyeshadow gets used regularly but the Rimmel powder doesn't.
