    Well done. I now hate looking at makeup in there because people open it all.
    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!

    Some INs for me:
    2x mascara - turned out I had run out and this was BOGOF
    Vichy Aqualia serum - best serum ever, I do have a Superdrug serum in the stash but I hate it, will finish hate panning it at some point in the future but just now I can't face it
    Garnier Moisture bomb night cream - I had a tub of this previously and hated it, bought it because it was on sale, silly really but I will use it up.

    And three UUs:
    2x hotel freebie mini shampoo
    L'oreal extraordinary oil facial moisturiser - love this

    I’ve tried finding us on Fb but can’t find it. Do you think you could post a link?

    I had a look on FB but couldn't find us either!

    UU
    75ml Nivea Soft moisturiser- HG, have used this for years and although I have tried other ones, I always go back to this.

    IN

    It's not a full In yet, but my husband always asks if there is anything in particular that I want for Christmas (I know, I know, it's only October!) and I fancy the Holland and Barrett beauty advent calendar. This is already sold out on line, so I did go and get one in store. :) It's not really an IN until I open it, right? And it will be a gift.:D

    Sep-Christmas challenge 33/75

    One IN today:

    Bumble and Bumble Don't Blow It (Fine) 150ml

    This should be my last IN for the month. A daily necessity, my hair is much more controlled when I use this. I have been trying the Invisible Oil Primer on damp hair, and it does help a bit to control my hair. But I love this so much.

    Still no UUs so far. A few items should hopefully be finished soon, but it might not be until next week.

    Here's a link to the Facebook post about us on MSE Facebook page.

    I remember us having a troll some years ago and also someone b*****ing about us on another thread.

    Why are there so many comments about the use of plastic in there? I know it's important but that wasn't the reason behind the post.

    Welcome to lifeatthekings & Betharooni

    Hi all

    My PP list for October:

    [STRIKE]Beauty Pie Suncreen for Face SPF 25[/STRIKE]
    Beauty Pie Anti Aging Face Cream
    Lush Lip Scrub
    Rituals Hand Scrub
    Thisworks Deep Sleep Cream
    Mio Boob Tube Bust Cream

    I have UU'ed Clinique Take the Day Off Cleansing Balm. HG and bought numerous time. WBA but I have Superdrug Hot Cloth Cleansing Balm in my stash so will use that one first.

    Also Pixi Rose Glow Mist: I did like this. I'm currently using Beauty Pie facial mist and it is also good. WMBA Pixi if it is on offer in the future.

    One from the list this weekend - BP Sunscreen. I have another one in the stash and I love using this. Doesn't break me out and sits well under my make-up.
    ally.
