    You could use up the shampoo as shower gel ( or transfer it into a shower gel bottle and leave it for OH to use!)!

    I've beeen using P&P for nearly a year now. Really impressed! Using it alongside oil-cleansing has made my skin more balanced and I don't ever have to slather cream on my face any more, a thin layer day and night is enough to keep it moisturised, so the jars last for ages too. (3 for 2 atm, I got new supply for "free" by returning unwanted gifts)
    Uh oh :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::o

    If I find myself in boots, I can't be held accountable for my actions :A

    On the plus side, I have enough points to cover it :think:

    It's regularly on 3 for 2. Last time I got 2 day cream and 1 night, this time 2night and 1 day, so I've now got 2 complete sets in stock, which will last me until end of summer I reckon. Don't usually stockpile it, but it was the most useful thing I could think of to get with the stuff I had to exchange.

    have you got a cream you're using atm? Don't want to be responsible for leading you astray!...............on the other hand if it's a points purchase........

    I must admit to really liking the FCUK toiletries. They seem to always have a lovely light fragrance.
    I finished off a pink body spray (deicing my windows one frosty morning after work but shhhh!) and the cream just. I've now moved on to the pure set that I was given last christmas (or birthday?) and it's lovely. I know I'm using a handbag that came with an FCUK giftset but I don't seem to have that set any more so I must have used it!
    A little while back someone was asking about the dove gradual tan (or whatever it's called) stuff. It really does smell revolting (oops nearly wrote taste!). I covered my legs and arms in it this morning when I went to bed and the smell didn't keep me awake and was gone by the time I got up (and sprayed myself with the FCUK pure lotion!). It is a lovely consistency and my pasty legs looked less awful when I got up this afternoon.
    Will be shaving tomorrow and having a nice long pamper session. I'll also do my tootsies so I look fabulous for going out for a meal. It's DH's works christmas do tomorrow night so it'll be yummy!
    Speak soon (hopefully owning one less shampoo and conditioner!), Kaz.

    Erm, no? :confused:

    Cos that means we all are :A

    Was the No7 cream the protect and perfect stuff that came with the little metalic bag? (Dunno why I had to have two of those, btw? :confused: but they were pretty :rotfl:) I thought that cream was rather good. Might buy it next time I need facial moisturiser. I'm using simple atm and it's alright, but a bit 'runny'. Can feel my skin getting drier as I get older and I need something heavier.

    You have no idea what getting older is FM:D

    Yeah this is the pink one! It was in a Boots gift set from Xmas 2008 0r even 2007?? It is nice. Does it work as de-icer then???

    I'd keep it in the car to spray on the dashboard to wipe it down and spray it around like an air freshener, if I was the sort of person who cared about the inside of their car. But I'm not!!

    PS DD keeps a pack of cheapo wipes in the car to clean around while she's in traffic jams! Maybe a good way to use up nasty wipes you don't want to use on your skin.

    Not that I'm getting you to encourage me to spend my money (just want to know for future) but which No7 cream are you talking about?

  • This challenge has got my name written all over it!

    I've got SO many toiletries in my bedroom & bathroom. This will save me some (hopefully lots! ;)) of money and will clear some much needed space!

    This is what I do! OH doesn't seem to notice! Also I used up a lot of old condtioner by using it when I shaved my legs. It works well, put it on first and then shave.

    I got some of the EDT for Christmas and I was surprised to really like them (I just posted this on the fashion thread weirdly!) I have so many perfumes to use up - that wil be harder than anything else.
