    Yes but if you gave me a slap I would be able to disguise the mark with my expensive foundation!!
    Actually my self esteem isn't that bad I just need to justify my make up habit.
    I am overpaying my loan and the credit card is 0% and I think I can pay it off before the term ends. Once my 3 year old leaves nursery next year I can start to chuck more at the loan.

    Commandment No1: Thou wilsnt not spend thy hard gotten gains in Boots!

    I used to have a Boots habit too - it was purely psychological. If I didnt feel good about myself then it would have to be new make-up/clothes...just this one thing and then everything else will be fine. Never worked - its purely a substitution for other things being wrong and then you feel worse when the bank statement comes.

    My top tip is work on your self-esteem and be happy with who you are - everything else will seem easier then.
