- COSRX Propolis Light Ampoule: Like this serum- WBA. Propolis is meant to be moisturising and antibacterial/microbial, so good for helping to keep your skin plump and clear. It's my last propolis product, so I will see how I do without it for now, but have nothing else like this so might repurchase soon- will see how my skin is without it for a bit.

uuMax Factor Facefinity 3 in 1 Foundation - this is the old version, judging by reviews the new formula is pants. I did use a brush to scrape inside the bottle but found it quite drying on my skin which is weird as it didn't feel like that whilst it was still pumping out.Smashbox Full Exposure Mascara - this was just a mini, I did like this but found that the last few times I used it it smudged after a few hours so I think it was probably too dry and was flaking.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

- Sure MotionSense Invisible deodorant: Trying a roll-on next, as I go through the spray very quickly
- Lucas' Papaw Ointment- 75g: Had this 100 years, so good to finally use it up. Good for dry patches, lips, cuts, bug bites etc.
- Travel size- Peter Thomas Roth- Anti-Aging Cleansing Gel: a gift with purchase. It's got glycolic acid and is bright orange- that was not going on my face!! I used this up as body wash.
- Travel size- Aveeno Face Calm and Restore Cleanser: Decanted to travel tub, so thought I'd use it up. Liked it better the second time round actually, would consider repurchasing at some point.
- Sample- Heimish Watermelon Moisture Soothing gel cream: Lovely texture, non sticky. Face is a bit sensitive at the moment so I used it on décolletage/body- it was nice.
- Sample Sachet: Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Serum: Fragranced, so used on body- nice serum, non sticky. Apparently they do an unscented version.
- Sample Sachet: Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Cream: Fragranced, so used on body- quite thick, I liked the feel of this one. WNB though due to the fragrance.

2 more UUS:-LUSH Snow Fairy soap. I got this in a gift set at Christmas from my Secret Santa at work. The set contained two Snow Fairy soaps, one shaped like a slice of cake (the one I've used) and one shaped like a plant pot. This was nice until I got to the end of it when the fragrance seemed to change to a funny toffee smell. Have replaced it with the plant pot one.Bare Minerals Complexion Rescue. HG. Replaced recently.I have three other products that I hope can be finished this week - The Inkey List Nicinamide, Revolution Cleanser with Niacinamide and Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish.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!

My updated PP List for April and possibly the last:-Loccitane hand cream
Skinsense Eye Concentrate
Perfance face maskUU Prai night cream. I got this in my M&S advent calendar. It was ok. This brand is sold on QVC and I find that I can't watch the Brand Ambassador when she is on as I find her annoying. I think this is why I feel meh about this product. Irrational, I know.I can't tell whetehr the Eye Concentrate will be finished by the end of this week or not but the hand crean and face mask definitely won't.I also hit pan again in my Colourpop Beauty and the Beast Supershock shadow this morning.

I've been to Superdrug to replace my Revolution cleanser. Also picked up an Optimum Retinol eye cream which was on offer to see if I can save some money.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge.
