Hmmm, DD has just handed me a hoard of Fresh! goodies as she's discovered it disagrees with her skin. I think I'll drop these of at the Cancer Research Shop tomorrow, to be honest it looks like it would make most people's skin erupt!
Right, off for my S&G bath, which should use up my Hair Supply mask and a fair amount of one of the body butters. I'm getting SOOOO into this!
Thanks ladies!

Hey Essex Heb, a few posts back (like hundreds) you said about Sodium Laureth Sulfate. Have you tried faith in nature shampoo - it's available in health food shops and Oxfam often sell it. Not cheap but you do get chemical free bubbles.
Naughty chemical bubbleswhich upset my loved one's psoriosis (sorry spelling...)

Not been here again cos of PC...though it made me miss reading about your trips to Boots. Well done to everyone who resisted. Well done to those who only bought gifts for OTHER PEOPLE (!). Tut to those who bought stuff they didnt need. But tomorrow is another day.

So I used up:
- Decleor bath oil - gorgeous smell. Sadly it was opened for too long and I used it for one bath and noticed it was no longer fresh. Buy again, yes for the smell. Likelihood of buying quite low, as I bought it as an outlet.
- face scrub - sadly not used up but on its way to charity or sis. It was ghastly cheap make from a beauty suppliers shop.
- little bottle of Pecksniffs perfume. A floral one. It was ok. Didnt seem to last.

I found more stash:
- a half used bottle of vitamin e sun cream (body shop). Think its been open a while so will use up on my neck/elbows that sort of thing.
- 2 half used body scrubs.
- 2 more Nivea shower gels.

As well as paint nail night (which sadly I can't take part in), shall we have a fake tan night? Or a leave a hair conditioner in all night night while on here?

I slipped today... I bought a certain female product with came with a free lip gloss. It's a brand I buy anyway. But being as I have loads of lipglosses I will give it as a pressie (all new and wrapped up still) to my neighbour. I did pick up (and put down) a tub of Nivea soft. I have SO SO many moisturisers to use up before I can buy a tube or tub of that.

Anyone noticing (a) they have a few more bob in their pockets and (b) a bit of space in cupboards/drawers etc? Great isn't it? :A

I tried an organic, SLS-free shampoo and conditioner. The shampoo didn't clean my hair and the conditioner didn't condition it. I was really disappointed!!! The brand was Seavite, do you know of it?

Good idea about the deep conditioning/fake tan day etc. Though I don't do fake tan in winter (one of the very few perks of this dull season!) so won't be partaking in that till about May or so! :rotfl:

I haven't seen ANY Bodyform packs with free lipgloss, wish I could find some!!!

Er, yes it is, but probably not 60 euros worth

Ooooh, right...I'm away to nosy back a few pages to find out who has been naughty (apart from me, obviously )

:eek: Ok, yes, got your drift. At that price it better have stopped you getting burnt, applied itself, AND got you a drink from the bar when you needed one!

As for reading back, Oooooh, no, no need for that, nothing to see here, move along please!

The first body scrub I used was the Planet Spa brown sugar one and I really liked it. Not sure if it was because it was the first one I used but the couple I've used since just don't seem to feel the same. I have a couple more left to use up but would probably buy this again when I needed to.

That is my current scrub (if you mean the one with shea butter and brown sugar?) and I don't think I'll try another when it eventually runs out as I like it a lot too. I've also got another one from the Planet Spa range that I've hardly used (something to do with sake and rice wine I think) but it's more of a body wash than a scrub. I'll be using it up regardless once the other one is used up though!

Hello all,

I hope everyone has had a nice weekend. I have just finished the biggest pile of ironing. Why do I leave it until Sunday evening?

I have used up my favourite Weleda Citrus refreshing bath milk.
It was so lovely. WIBA definitely (but only if I can get it in a £ shop)
It smells of lemon sherbet chews and reminded me of being a little girl again.

I have fallen off the wagon again. I could not resist Morrison's organic shampoo and conditioner which was on bogof (£2.49). Someone mentioned it a good few pages back now. Its the best stuff I think I have ever used, that includes all the expensive makes in spacenk. It is sls free and paraben free and all that sort of thing. I got the colour protect one and I haven't had my hair coloured for about 6 weeks but it has really refreshed the colour. (I am getting my hair coloured every 2nd payday instead of every payday, so I am trying to be mse)

Also I have to confess I did buy 3 more revlon radiance mousse eyeshadows £1 each from savers. They are lovely colours and textures and I have been looking for that sort of natural, but madeup type of eyeshadow forever.

So all in all I know I have slipped up again but J'ne regrette de rien (or something like that):o

I want this brown sugar scrub now!
