Managed to use up 2 products by the end of March
I now have very pampered forearms (IYKYK)…
Skin Reset Face Serum - Emma Lewisham wmba I really liked this serum and always woke up with more even toned skin after using it at night. Have another in my stash. Would buy again if the price was right.
Midnight Elixir Regenerative EGF and Multi-Peptide Night Serum (mini) - Oskia wmba I have never found an Oskia product that I didn't like. Have another in my stash. Again, would buy again if the price was right.

Last items out for March
17 Avon Wild Cherry TA - this was a matte lipstick that I rarely reached for
18 Lacura tinted moisturiser - more in stash
19 Wild Science eyecream - this was comparable to the ALDI one that is released as a Specialbuy. For this reason I would not purchase this. Have more eye cream in stash.
20 OPI Big Apple Red mini - have more red polish in stash.
21 Lacura Berry lip oil TA - this reminds me of Lipcote. Very uncomfortable.
22 Lacura Merlot Moment lip oil - ditto.
23 Beauty Bang Snowcapped eyeliner - feels dry although its not old.
24 MAC Dare You lipstick - i've been working on this for about 3 years however it is now dry.
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!
