#137 - May Project 10 Pan


Now before I get any comments telling me I've miscounted, I knooow there's only eight items in the photo below, but in just the past few months I've used up loads of products, so I don't feel the need to choose ten each month, just however many I feel I can do.
These posts always seem to be the most popular when I peek at my stats, which I'm really glad about as it gives me a small (and sad) sense of pride doing them each month!
I know I'm very late on this one, but I completely forgot to post this earlier, it's been sat in my drafts for weeks, sorry guys!


John Frieda/Superdrug hair conditioners - I have about four of these sat in my drawers from the times I've dyed my hair at home. I do like these conditioners, they do their job very well, I just like others much better. I will use up at least two tubes though, I've nearly finished the white one so I should do it.

ELF Cream Eyeliner - Again, I really like this product, but I find liquid liners easier to use, simply because if I make a mistake with liquid, it's easy enough to amend, but it's much harder to remove and reapply this on my lid, and I don't like being too heavy-handed on my eyes. I think I'll use it up on days/nights when I can take my time applying my makeup.

Next Pink perfume - I got this in a set at Christmas and I love the smell, it's floral and fresh without being too heavy on the ol' nostrils. Again I put in the a drawer in favour of Flowerbomb and Naughty Alice, how naughty of me! It's a great Summer scent though, and I'll probably take it to Cornwall with me.

TBS Grapefruit Body Butter - I've had this a while and I do like it, it's very moisturising and sinks in relatively quickly, but the smell lingers longer than I'd like. I'll be using this before bed to nourish my legs.

S&G Flake Away - I love this scrub, but I currently have this tub which is half full, and another huge tub untouched! So I'm using it every other shower to get my body (mainly legs) beach-ready. But this scrub is bloody brilliant!

Lush Cynthia Sylvia Stout - This is a great clarifying shampoo that contains stout beer, so your hair is much more shiny and it adds weight and volume to finer hair.

Rimmel Clear Complexion powder in transparent - Nothing much to say about this, it's just what i use to set my makeup, but I realised I have two half-used, so I need to use up one because it's driving me bananas! But it does the job, think it was either £4-5 so it doesn't break the bank either.


What products are you trying to use up this month?

(Before I start, I apologise for the poor photo quality; the camera I was using just didn't want to focus ¬__¬ )

I went for a little nose around town yesterday with Heather and Andri, after a much needed Chinese buffet at Yum's, I swear I get embarrassed that the waiters know us in there!
I had promised myself I wasn't going to buy anything until I get paid, but as always that fell through straight away...
We popped into Resurrection, where I was faced with the sale rails as we walked up the stairs, and at the front of one of them was this jumper...


It's the cutest thing I've ever seen! As some of you may be aware I have a great love for penguins, so I couldn't resist! And at half off it was a bargain!
I'll be wearing it with chunky cable-knit tights and my military boots in the upcoming colder months.


I bought a new foundation from Superdrug as my Bourjois one is running low, and the coverage seems too light for me during winter, so wanted something a little heavier to cover my strange skin. I opted for Collection 2000's Lasting Perfection, as I already use the matching concealer which works wonders for under my eyes!
I chose shade no. 1, Vanilla as I didn't want to look like a satsuma, and it works really well, it gives the right amount of coverage without feeling like it's weighing down my face - and it really lasts.
I also picked up their waterproof Collagen Curl mascara, I'll be trying that out later.




I've heard wonderful things about Lush's Lip Scrubs, so I decided on the Bubblegum flavour, as I figured I'd get sick of the Mint and Chocolate one.

It's the yummiest thing ever; I used it last night before bed and then slathered lip balm once I'd licked this off, and woke up with ridiculously smooth lips. It cost £4.95, I think? But even though it's a small pot, it'll last ages, so it's worth the price tag!

What's your favourite product from Lush?
