    wansn't that hand cream called atrixo? with the slogan 'hand care for hands on people'......

    haha that is very sad of me i know!

    astral was definitely in a round blue tub though i think

    Atrixo was a yellow tub with green writing. I used both but found Astral to greasy for my skin. Joanna Lumley used to do the TV advert for Astral.

    hello everyone.

    I had a look, but the pantene sachets don't look to be available online so that's one for the stores. I was wondering if anyone knows if the baby essentials spend £10 for 200 pts is online only or is also available instore???

    I managed to pick up a blinkie last week when I got a few bits so planning on going and using that this week. I fancy the new minerals blusher, but the breastcare blusher looks nice too if the minerals isn't available.
