    Morning all.

    I repainted my nails last night using Nails Inc Alexa Holographic on my fingers, this is a silver glitter and 17 Pink Grapefruit on my toes.

    I have uu a candle

    Rituals Lavender Fields - this was lavender and eucalyptus, it smelt lovely and burnt well with no soot. I did use my YC illuma lid balanced on the top. I already have more of this candle in the stash.

    Have UU a few travel sizes on holiday last week

    - a Sanctuary body lotion and shower gel which were gifts and I have at least one more of each in my stash and lots of other travel sizes, so wouldn't re-purchase now, and probably not at all - they're nice but Sanctuary products aren't very natural.

    - a small tube of L'Occitane foot lotion - I have a full size one of these on the go, am quite keen on this.

    - A full size L'Occitane repairing conditioner. Not sure about this - it seems to work ok away from home where water is softer but in London where water is rock hard it doesn't seem as effective. I've been using to decant into a travel size bottle.

    Hello all!
    Few OUTs to report:

    10/102. UU Avene Hydrating Serum, 5ml sample. I like this but probably WNB. I've had it before and get bored with the full size.
    11/103.TA Boots Cucumber Eye Gel. My skin felt like it was on fire! Don't know if it's been open too long or just doesn't agree with me anymore. WNBA.
    12/104. UU Ikea candle. No name but it was pale pink, slightly floral scent. WBA.

    Few INs, too, all from YouBeauty Discovery box which I gave in to this month.
    20/66. Urban Veda Soothing Day Cream
    21/67. AA Aloe and Seaweed Eye Gel
    22/68. The Body Shop Oils of Life Facial Oil 7ml sample

    The reaction I had to my cucumber eye gel makes me think I might have to go through everything and try and remember how long I've had stuff so there may be more TAs this month!
    Til next time! x

    Really nice reading about everyone's UU.

    Currently working on 2 more friend's beauty boxes, so will have roughly 8 out's from that. 2x lotions to another friend too.

    I received from a friend 3x perfume samples, lipliner sample, mascara sample too, so some IN's to declare.

    UU's:
    - Contact solution
    - Hair dye from superdrugs
    - Lush Fun soap in honey scent

    Will also paint my nails today as well x

    Everyone is using up so much!
    I have another travel sized up Miller Harris citron citron body lotion wnba. Was all about the smell, which wasn't that great, no real moisturising quality. Came in a set, have hand lotion and shower gel to use now

    A UU just cut open the tube of hand cream I had been testing as it had been spluttering for a while. Really nice cream and a pleasure to use (don't know what it was) I have more hand creams in the stash.

    INs 2x500ml bottles of Avon soft pink bubble bath
    SPC~12 ot 124

    I have a uu

    No7 Beautiful Skin 3 in 1 Cleansing Cloths - WBA, I use these when I'm on holiday to remove most of my makeup then follow with a hot cloth type cleanser. DD was using them for her trips away but they are no good for her sensitive skin.

    Some great progress being made!


    I have a UU:


    10/138. Cussons Mum & Me Head to Toe Body Wash 500ml - this was bought on glitch and I used it for shaving my legs. It was fine but nothing special.

    Another UU - Crabtree and Evelyn Hand Recovery (it's a scrub for hands). I've got through a number of tubes of this over the years and it does the job well but I am not sure if it's really necessary to have a separate hand scrub from a decent body scrub. I have something similar from a different brand in my stash and possibly another tube of this tucked away too so no need to make a decision yet.

    Hi all,

    I have UU'ed a Sanctuary Correct&Protect SPF 12 Hand Cream - it is really nice and i have another tube that i'm using at home (I finished the tube in my drawer at work). It is really a nice hand cream. I bought both off Boots clearing shelves so was also cheap. I might consider to buy at normal price. I'm still sad TBS has discontinued Vitamin-E hand cream.

    Some INs - House of Fraser has a good beauty offer (surprise surprise) and I needed some day cream. You get £10 off a product when you buy one of their eligible items. So I have bought the following two

    Daily energizer cream 30ml
    Instant smooth perfecting touch
    This order qualified for a free gift set - that includes hand cream, pure melt cleansing gel, hydratant tonic.

    All for the cost of £37.50 and free delivery to the store.
    ally.
