    UU's

    • Wisdom whitening toothpaste - this was in my Mum's stash. Seemed fine but I have other brands I prefer.
    • Avon Anew Power Renewal serum - from Mum's stash. Quite liked this but I don't think it's still available.
    • Rimmel lasting matte concealer - WNBA, didn't seem to last on my skin.
    • Similie cream soap bar - This is a new discovery. Absolutely love this soap, very moisturising, and smells amazing. I have others soap bars to use up but I think this will become my HG eventually

    IN's

    Lacura blusher x 2 'pink lace' & 'peachy pink' - both rumoured to be dupes of Rare Beauty 'Happy' and 'Hope'. I didn't need these but wanted to grab the dupes. I have the RB ones given to me as gifts, but wouldn't buy them normally due to the price.

    No buying unnecessary toiletries 2014. Epiphany on 4/4/14 - went into shop to buy 2 items, walked out with 17!
