Going strong for more than 8 years! Full of great reviews, reports of empties and despair over our ever growing stashes!

@Fraaahnces - I will definitely let you know if I make it to Brisbane.

While I’m complaining about where I live, today is our first official day of Summer. It was 37’C and humid AF. This evening we had the kind of thunderstorm that appears to herald the apocalypse. Of course once the gods had stopped expressing their wrath, it was even more humid. Outside feels like an unwelcome hug from a creepy uncle.

A few more empties, mainly hair stuff:

Color Wow Colour Security shampoo and conditioner - 250ml each. The shampoo was fine and the conditioner was great, it was lightweight but I only needed a little bit. Left my hair feeling really soft.

Color Wow Dream Filter - 200ml. Apparently this is supposed to protect your hair colour from hard water (which we do have). I didn’t notice any difference using this, though to be fair my colour was probably pretty wrecked before I started.

Murad Revitalixir Recovery Serum - 5ml. Only a little sample so no idea about long term use, but this felt really nice to use. I’ve liked everything I’ve tried from Murad’s purple range, they’ve all been really hydrating and left my skin soft. This serum is about £80 for the full size though, so won’t be buying anytime soon.

Then a couple of perfume samples (Gallivant Istanbul and Elie Saab Elixir), a mini Laniege lip sleeping mask in Gummy Bear and a Burts Bees honey lip balm (my favourite).

We had the opposite here @Fraaahnces and it’s freezing. No snow by me but had to scrape the ice off the car this morning.

@CorneliaStreet I hope you daughter is ok 💐I am sorry I missed this before.

@Fraaahnces the UK is very over populated, it does sometimes feel like we are on top of one another... yet I have been in parts where the greenery goes on for as far as the eye can see. I am very fortunate to live in a very green part of London 💜

I do not have any empties to report but I am passing on a lot of stuff to a friend so just to mention some things I have tried:

  • Redken volume injection shampoo - loved this - the lather is lovely
  • Redken volume injection conditioner - whatevs
  • The Skin House EGF collagen ampoule: loves the smell and feel of this serum
  • Heimish all clean balm: love this - there are other flavours, right? Will definitely give this a go again
  • Cosrx BHA blackead power liquid: whatevs still have blackheads

A few more tiny empties

CLARINS lotion with chamomile would love to RP one day!

center parks bath and shower gel.. quite like this which is good as got quite a few more to come!

L'occtaine verbe a body lotion ok but maybe a bit greasy for me

sample of floflex foot cream surprised myself by really liking this fairly neutral smell and soft feet

i've lots of larger bottles that seem to have been hovering at 3/4 empty for ages and the bar of soap.stated in July which is now the size of top.two joints of my index finger but very thin..
