    *weeps*

    These are my downfall - i just saw the thread on grabbit, and i really, really, really want to go buy some.... I don't need to though - i have 1 open, 3 in store, and a S&G body butter in store. And i still want to go buy more! :wall:
  • I've just washed my hair and moisturised. In the next few days I should be finished a few fullsize products so I'm a bit excited (how sad is that :o). All the stuff I've used up so far have just been samples/minis, so yay.

    I found a pair of exfoliating mits about a week ago that I bought but never used... have used them a few times in the shower and they've made such a difference, especially to the skin on my legs. And the best bit is they only cost me 49p from B&M.

    To try not to spend any money unnecessarily, I have noticed that the skin around my nails is really dry and I keep picking at it, making my fingers sore, which means I can't remove my nail varnish which I want to do, and was wondering if anyone can recommend something that I might already have that will help sort it out. I don't have any moisturising gloves although I have previously tried to get some but I only live in a small town and have not been able to get any.

    Also are cotton wool balls/roll just as good for using with my toner as the cotton pads I am already using?

    Oh no! I got a body butter from a boots set i got at xmas, their extracts fairtrade brazil nut body butter. Am enjoying using this and was just about to suggest this as an alternative then saw on the web it is £7.50! Way too expensive for me. Thats the reason i dont buy the body shop ones no more.

    Just realised if they are selling the body butters in body shop in store then i would get the extra 10% discount - no i do not need them. I need to stay away.

    Has anyone even been a Body shop consultant who throws the body shop parties at home?

    Vegetable oil.

    You can either rub it straight on like a cuticle oil, or you can heat it up ever so slightly - but be very careful :eek:. Set it in a bowl and put that bowl into a bigger bowl with hot water - and soak your fingers in it.

    Cotton wool is just cotton wool, as far as I'm concerned :)
