  • thanx for the photos flying_fresian. Defo cheered up my nite... I just lurve him as captain Jack....

    anyways, today I finished off a dove shampoo and some tesco facial wipes.

    Also managed to avoid morrisons offer. - head & shoulders shampoo and conditioners down to only 92p, I did pick it up, but decided against it. Think I'm starting to get better at saying NO...

    :hello:No more toiletries challenge :T

    But how did they get those names I wonder?
    Courtesy of the now defunct Boots Grabbit threads. :p Each voucher was given a different name to distinguish it. First we had pinkies, then blueys etc, etc.
    Time may be a great healer, but it's a lousy beautician.... :/

    I'm definitely going to take a pic of some of my toiletries using my mobile so that I can stop myself getting tempted to buy more.
    .

    Post pics here people:)
    Film any good?

    I loved it:)
    Oh no don't worry Queen I always use those. That's partly why I am in this mess. But how did they get those names I wonder?

    I'm new but I know the answer to that. Someone explained on another Boots thread. It's really long to be writing "the £5 off No7 or Ruby+ Millie voucher" so it gets shortened to snowie/skinnie. Vouchers seem to be named on what they look like.

    The no7 one was named a snowie because it was snowing in jan when it came out :)

    Haven't posted for a couple of days, but I've used up a face mask sachet and am coming towards the end of a body spray and deodorant spray so hoping to finish those off over the weekend.

    Found:
    6 pure soaps (trial size for facial use) from a company called DHC, why oh why didn't I use them before, I tried one last night and it is superb, I love it. I'm glad one last about 10 washes and I have 6 yippee.:T
    Ooh, I have some of these too! Not got round to trying them yet, but I'll move them further up the order list now I know you like them :) Will use them as a "morning" or "non-oil cleanse" soap.

    Thank you :)

    I've used up two little vit B face moisturiser sachets from the same company. Nice cream, but I didn't really like the smell. Will have to see what other trial products I have from DHC too :)
