Happy Birthday @VALM

Hodgepodge

2 UUs for Feb so far…

Mandelic Exfoliating Mask - Jordan Samuel Skin wnba This appeared to separate in storage and although it smelled ok it felt odd to use. This has been out of stock for many months, so I'm wondering if the product stability is an issue?
Foamy Face Wash - Beauty Pie wnba Much prefer the Happy Face cleansing gel (see previous post…). The wash was fine but stung like crazy if it got in my eye.

Happy belated Birthday @VALM ! Sounds like you got some lovely pressies!

Some unexciting UUS:

• Sure Nonstop Protection Anti-Perspirant Aerosol Uplifting & Fresh 250ml
• Garnier Micellar- sensitive 700ml
• Revolution Hydrate & Fix Fixing Spray 100ml

INS- both replacements

• Revolution Sport Fix Fixing Spray 100ml: annoyingly hasn't arrived yet, though the rest of my Boots order arrived at the weekend….
• Sure Nonstop Protection Anti-Perspirant Aerosol Uplifting & Fresh 250ml

UU Beauty Outlet Nail Polish Remover 150 MLS - WBA

IN - got2b Glued blasting freeze Hairspray 300mls X2. I bought two of these as they were offer , it was cheaper to 2 than one .

I like the got2b hairspray. Rates very good on yuka . Very good hairspray too. Looks like you have not sprayed your hair with hairspray.

I have a bit of a different hairspray left.

UU's

• Mad about Skin- Maximum Impact Moisturiser: Nice thick moisturiser, have another in my stash but got a different one in the stash that I want to use up first.
• COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence: Love this. Actually got the replacement last year- apparently its one of those products that goes on longer than you think!
• Essie- Gel Couture Clear Top Coat: Getting too hard to use now, so this is done! WBA, fairly regularly use this one. Replaced with the Vibrant Vinyls- Fast & Hard Top Coat I bought at the start of the month.

Only 2 items used up in Feb so far…

So I have decided to group together all my minis and concentrate on using them up.

I'm not using any more stuff than usual but the psychology of the stash numbers going down will give me a boost.

• NUMBUZIN No.9 NAD Bio Lifting Essence 50ml: Really like this essence, it's quite bouncy and hydrating. It's called an essence but its not very liquidy at all, not like a regular toner/essence, is almost like a cross between moisturiser and serum in texture. I have a different peptide serum in my stash so I'll use that up, but then I think I will purchase this one again when I'm done with that.

Don't think I'll have anything else finished up before the end of the month, but we shall see!
