The REN cream looks nice, I won't be opening it for a while as I have a couple on the go already.

Today's was an Autograph kohl pencil. I don't really wear black eye make up any more, but I tried it on the back of my hand and it's really soft and seems to be totally indestructible.

Today Edith and I have Aurelia deodorant cream. Smells lovely but I don’t love the idea of applying it with my hands.

I’m also sceptical about it working effectively but I’ll give it a bash as last years Malin+Goetz one was surprisingly good.

I’ve read really good things about that one. Let us know if it’s any good.

Mine today was a mini Ouai leave-conditioner spray. Pretty dull really, but it smells nice so I’m trying it right now. My hair needs a lot of help!

Any good?

Mine today was Paula’s Choice BHA exfoliant. I love salicylic acids, but I’ve tried this one before and didn’t rate it.

I think the problem with me (!) is that by now I know what I like :sman:.

I bought a mini of that for Squeak recently. I remember it making a huge difference to my skin back in 2014 but it does feel sticky on your skin.

Is it the gel one? It doesn't feel sticky to me. I haven't used it for ages though.

No, just a thin liquid from what I remember.

Today was Davines Nounou hair mask for shit hair which mine is. You’re meant to comb it through as leave for 10-15 mins:

I like that Universal Emulsion stuff, and Davines products.

Mine was the small version of this bath oil. It looks very nice (I like their bath salts). I don't for one moment believe the claims about heading off colds and flu. Antiviral bath oil would be all over the news :)).

I was chuffed with the kohl pencil yesterday, less impressed with "sleep cream" today after getting a night cream a couple of days ago. Spread 'em out folks, I only have one face!

Today I got a mini DE Framboos overnight acid thingy. I’ve used this before and liked it, but not enough to shell out for my own bottle, so I’m happy to have it. (It’s a weaker version of the Babyfacial stuff that you can’t get here.)

How did everybody else fare?

Almost the same as Pip for me today - PK but Weightless shampoo, not Elasticizer

Cleanser and moisturiser for me and olive today. I’ve had both these before at various times and like them both so I’m happy.
