    An IN yesterday as we went into Manchester for lunch - Maybelline Colour Tattoo in Cream de Nude. Remembered that I like this as an eyelid primer.

    I have 4 items that I know will be finished this week.

    ELF setting spray
    Liz Earle Skin Relief Moisturiser
    Primark fragrance- pomegranate and black tea
    Carnegie lip balm

    Won’t need to replace any of these.

    A flurry of UUs this morning:

    Child’s Farm Baby Moisturiser 250ml WDBA and will do in the future. For £3-£4 its an amazing body moisturiser. Gentle and moisturising, and there's no mineral oil in it which a load of other body lotions at this price point have in them. I love the smell as well.

    Colgate Total Original Toothpaste sample WDB in the future. I got this sample free after my hygienist appointment the other month, and I'm quite surprised by this. I actually really enjoyed it, my whole mouth felt really clean after using this everyday.

    Tigi Bed Head Colour Goddess Miracle Treatment Mask WDBA in the future. This is a nice, cheap-ish hair mask. Leaves my hair feeling soft and smooth when it dries.

    Cheers! I'll have a look next time I'm in Boots. I've got two body lotions to use before I need to buy any more, but I will look into it the next time I want the Child's Farm body moisturiser :)

    The Primark fragrance is done. Used as a room spray as did it like it on my skin. Have some body spray to use as room spray next.

    UU Topanga waves moisturiser from & other stories, really pleased this is UU I loved the scent but the formula is terrible, not moisturising at all, WNBA

    IN: Mroobest anti-hair loss Shampoo

    UUs
    Aussie Miracle Hair Oil 100ml - WMBA, nice oil but it takes forever for me to get through 100ml and it's not massively travel-friendly so I'll probably stick to smaller bottles from now on.

    Clinique Moisture Surge Hydrator 1ml - WNBA, never very impressed by Clinique!

    Femfresh Powder 200g x 2 - HG talc

    Herbal Essences Bio:Renew Shampoo 400ml - White Strawberry & Mint - Very nice, WBA

    GA
    L'Occitane Icy Verbena Shower Gel 250ml - To my husband, this was eye-wateringly menthol and he has a bad cold so he'll love it!

    UU Boots Acetone Nail Polish Remover. Replacement bought in readiness. Only £1 a bottle. Good job I have replaced it as had a disaster with my nails this morning. Was going to wear OPI Black to Reality but it was applying really thickly. Then tried Leighton Denny Berry Nice and couldn't get enough products on my brush. Have TA. Now wearing Ted Baker Burgundy and not really impressive either.
