    I've managed another day without buying anything! I think that's two weeks now. :j

    Tomorrow will be a real challenge as I have to go into town and visit either Boots, Superdrug, Savers or Wilkinsons to get some toothpaste.
    Time may be a great healer, but it's a lousy beautician.... :/

    - to the folks saving guerlin products for special occasions, every day is a special occasion.
    - loads of bits to charity that no longer use (packaged soaps, loved ones aftershave).
    - going to do as op suggests and swop products around that I use up, so I dont get bored.
    - hands look great with all the hand cream I keep using.
    - about using up eye old creams (protect and perfect I think was mentioned) - how about ebaying? Giving as a gift, as a spa gift set. Or using on the backs of hands.

    Keep up the good work everyone. I havent used up any bottles today. I found another bath product to use up. So just when I think, yes I am doing so well, I then find more stuff. Shows how bad the addiction was eh?

    I use that on my elbows/feet etc. but it doesn't absord very easily and I can't imagine it would be absorbed into my face very easily. It might be worth a go, though.

    Have you tried Nivea soft. Im using one at the moment and it really is fantastic. A lot lighter than the blue one. I need a few applications a day and it never feels heavy, or draws the cold. The smallest is about 1.79 ( wilkinsons) and I find it brililant.
    :beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
    Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
    This Ive come to know...
    So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:

    How very true. Live each day as if it were your last... tomorrow is not promised.

    Get using those lotions, potions and perfumes ladies!!!

    I've used that before as a body moisturiser, but not a facial one. It might be worth a go. Thanks for the tip! ;)
