    No UU but I've turned a bit of a corner- no inclination to get the s&g boots offer and I also had a £15 off Clarins voucher expiring today which I haven't used

    Valm Thank you for the Information on the Clinique offer, but don't think I should be buying anymore Mascara (just managed to give a way two mini's).

    Sundaysgirl I would like to downgrade some products (not that I buy really expensive stuff), but sometimes struggle with the cheaper brands. I think its because they tend to add more fragrance to their products?

    Thanks guys, nice to find such a friendly bunch on a forum :)! Was worried about spaming the forum especiallly in the next while when I start trying to clear out my sachet stash!

    VALM you've just reminded me I have a few samples of the eyeliner in my stash at my parents :( think they might have to be a GA or even TA.

    Not at all. Keeps me motivated to keep going seeing someone newer than me doing so well!
    I have a couple things I've almost finished so should have a few UUs soon!

    Evening ladies

    Finally have some reporting. So UU Gum hairspray from bf house. HG item for me and bulk bought when I thought it was getting discontinued. Have replaced it with another.

    Another uu L'Occitaine universal shower gel. WNBA even at half price £9 for that size of shower gel is just too much. Have looked out a sanctuary shower cream now.

    My Laid Bare Pack Your Bags eye cream is spluttering now. Feel like a few of my eye creams are going to run out at the same time. I'm trying to avoid feeling the rise of the panic buying in me. It will be fine.

    Just on a side note. I bought my best friend the best of benefit gift set for £24.50 as part of her Christmas. At the time I'd talked myself out of buying one for myself and now having seen it, boy am I regretting that one. It is fab. Nevermind, I'm holding out for some Elemis deal. Got a stonking good one last Christmas.

    lankygirl - don't throw away your Benefit eyeliners, the will sell well on ebay.

    In from my advent calendar - Sally Hansen Nail Rehab.

    I also have a uu - sort of - I have put a bottle of Body Shop Raspberry Ripple Shower Gel into the kitchen handwash bottle.

    Confession time.
    Having reported 2 UUs this month, I was silly and bought:
    2 glitter nail varnishes -
    totally unnecessary because I broke a nail on Thursday which will take a while to grow back to varnishing length and I have dozens of bottles available
    and
    3 Mellor & Russell Simply Bright temporary hair colourants (blue, pink and peach) -
    when I should really have tried one first to make sure there was no bad reaction (only saving feature is that at least I didn't have any in my stash before this purchase)

    No more toiletries/make up until I've used what I've got stashed since Jan 2011, graduated October 2012. Restocked Dec 13..damn those sales
