What five things have you bought recently or been using/wearing lots that you really love?

Trilogy rose hip oil - been using it for about 4 months every night. It’s really lovely.

Kenzo Flower perfume- a proper blast from the past for me! I bought a Chloe one at the same time, but it doesn’t last at all, whereas I’m aware of the Kenzo for ages.

Cos heavy boxy T-shirts - it’s a bit too warm for them now, but I was wearing them on repeat for ages

Urban Decay green eyeliner and eyeshadow- I get loads of comments whenever I wear it

Marks and Spencer black ribbed tube dress - just a really useful basic

I promise you won't regret it. DD2 is a make up aficionado and her taste in make up is flawless, she swears by it.

Yes, but different make up suits different skin, so what your daughter likes for herself might not be what a woman thirty years older would like for her own skin.

Great post OP some lovely things on here. My 5:

Along with many others, M&S linen trousers in navy

Uniqlo built in bra top in red/orange and just ordered the same in white I love it so much

Nuxe body/hair oil - just love the smell
A Nobody's Child denim maxi skirt I got for a bargain on Vinted

And channelling my inner Sloane and rocking an old pair of drop pearl earrings

M&S

Linen Blend Wide Leg Trousers | M&S Collection | M&S

These linen-rich trousers are designed in a breezy wide-leg shape, making them perfect for warm-weather days. They fasten with a drawstring at the comfortable high rise waist. Handy side pockets and patch pockets at the back complete this practical pai...

Another Mounjaro-er here, 5 stone down and loving clothes again (whilst bankrupting myself 😂).

A Sezane Will suede jacket which was a bargainous BNWT buy and is divine

Size 12!! jeans (particularly the M&S wide leg ones with the braided tie belt, casual but I love them)

Boots Future Renew night serum

Birkenstock Bostons, after threatening them for ages

Linen shirts knotted over a vest top - don't know whether it's 'in' or 'out' and don't care

I'm 30 years older than DD and it's fabulous on mature skin too.

Can you tell me about the new No. 7 Night serum? I already use their Future Renewal Serum, but is the new one even better?

Not been using it all that long, so am just going on fact that I love the feel of it and trusting them 😆when they tell me it will do something in addition to the fabulous normal FR serum that I’ve been using for a good while now and has made a big difference to my skin.

Thank you. I've gradually worked my way up through all the incarnations of the No. 7 Protect & Perfect serums. I'm going to buy the new night time one tmrw.

@Arraminta
that Freya bra looks amazing its exactly what Ive been looking for. The price is good too, so many nice bras are £40+ now.

I've always mainly worn Freya bras but only discovered the Icon recently and I'm recommending it to all my friends.
