Well basically whilst I was an Avon rep, and also after, everytime they brought out a new fragrance I bought it, then when I realised I couldn't use them all before they brought another fragrance out I decided I would just stick with the brand that to me was more value for money and just bought those when a new fragrance came out. I have since come to my senses and realised I still wouldn't use them up before a new fragrance was brought out and finally stopped buying them altogether. At least I know now that that figure will start coming down.
In my defence I have a friend who bought me 3 M&S shower gels for my birthday one year and my husband said on the way home that she wouldn't have bought them for me if she'd known the true extent of my stash and also I have just trialed a shower gel which has put me back a month otherwise it would probably have been 78 by now :rotfl:
Well at least you'll be smelling and looking gorgeous for the next year or so :A:hello:No more toiletries challenge :T

Does anyone else match their jewellery to their clothes or make-up?
I do all the time and OH said it was silly and he doesn't know anyone who does that. Like today i have a blue t-shirt on so i'm wearing mostly clear diamond jewellery but have picked a tanzanite ring that is the exact same colour as my t-shirt.
Of course! Your OH is silly not you! :rotfl:

I thought about you all today whilst at work
I am doing a clearout of a building and everything goes binward if it doesnt get claimed by staffClearing out a pedestal I have found 3 brand new totally unused, still in the packets crabtree & evelyn "hand therapy" :rolleyes:
Of course I had to accost them for self. I was thinking when my hand cream runs out ( and I do have a huge molton brown one to go - thats in stores for when champneys runs out which simply seems like never) I am going to treat myself to Loccitane handcream selection ( you know the one thats often on QVC) as Occitane is the best hand-cream ever ( although I do like nutrogena as well)
Alas feel like Ive been somewhat set back on my path for these occitane hand creams- will have to wait a few more months :rolleyes::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:0 -

This is the one I think
Although in saying that the one I really love is "shea butter" its just so gorgeous and a great all round product. I borrowed a friends who is a designer and machinist- her hadns often gt cut to bits, stabbed by sewing machine, dry from dyes etc. She swears by this and personally I think its fantastic.
But I have other stuff to use first :rolleyes::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.
