    UU

    Little Mix Wishmaker Bubble Bath 250ml - Got this in a gift set. Lovely fragrance. Have replaced with other bath stuff from the stash.

    Ted Baker London Body Wash 50ml     - I got this on clearance for £2 and it lasted a while, despite the size. Have some other travel size shower gels which I'll save for traveling.

    Boots Chic Dream Bergamot & Berries Body Fragrance 75ml - I loved the scent of this and was complimented on it. WDBA but have lots of body sprays in the stash still to use up.

    Will have my updated PP list up soon. :)

    First Anniversary First Post I've been Money Tipped!
    Two INs arrived today, from an order I made last month:

    Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm 15ml
    Clinique Pep Start Eye Cream sample

    I've wanted to try the cleansing balm for a while now, so I got the little travel size to try so I don't feel bad if I don't enjoy it. And you get to choose a free sample when you make an order and this was the only one that interested me

    One UU last night:

    Clinique Pep Start Eye Cream sample WPNB. It was alright but nothing exciting. I won't even think about purchasing it.

    I will have some OUTs tomorrow as I've managed to sell a few items on the Skincare Exchange again.

    Afternoon all,

    UU: from PP list MONU eye cream - WNBA, I don't particularly get on with eye creams anyway but this did nothing for me!
    GA: NARS primer and BB cream - again did nothing for me and was only using them to try and finish them but have gifted them to someone who might get more pleasure from them than me!

    So I have two UUs already. Nothing earth shattering:-

    1. Pack of Superdrug cotton wool pads Again I picked up the wrong ones. These are the small ones. Prefer the bigger oval ones however have two packs still in stash first.

    2. Vidal Sassoon hair colour in Intense Red Have no more in stash now. Will wait until I need one to either repurchase this or Nice N Easy.

    My PP list:-

    Urban Decay Gwen Stefani Lo-Fi blush
    Maybelline Colour Tattoo in Creme de Nude
    Liz Earle Jasmine & Osmenthus Cleanse & Polish

    These carried over from last month. Have hit pan on first two. I did tell Emma that she could use up the C&P but I've still been using it as I can't stand things being used at a very slow rate any more!! (Becoming OCD with challenge, me thinks).

    So, I have other items taht will go this month:-

    15ml Elemis PCMC
    30ml Liz Earle Skin Repair Moisturiser
    15ml OPI Original Nail Envy
    The Body Shop Chinese Ginseng mask
    LUSH Cup o Coffee mask (use as a facial scrub only)
    200ml tube of Liz Earle original Cleanse & Polish
    Rituals Yogi Something or other shower gel

    I have been using my Urban Decay Naked 2 pallette and Too Faced Natural pallette this week and will keep rotating each week. Really loving the UD one in particular.
