I've never used serum. Am I missing something?

If you can get away with not using it then great :j I have really frizzy hair and without it my hair is like pubes I love using frizz ease but have found that avon stuff is just as good :T
edit-just realised you may be talking about face serum :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Thanks for that eklynne. Cant buy it until i finish my boots one though.
Do you know why they dont sell this in stores anymore?

Be very careful buying Body Shop products from ebay.
They may be old.
I found out recently, when I tried opening one that I had bought (albeit a few years ago!), that they CAN go off even without having been opened.
Apparently Body Shop say that their items will last up to three years unopened from when they were manufactured. After that they just say not to use them as they're too old. And of course even if you buy them from the shop you don't know how long they've been hanging around at the shop before being sold!

I'm not saying don't buy them from ebay, but be aware that they may not last very long. It might be better to go have a poke about in the store and find an alternative instead.

ohh aren't we all doing well.

I have a strange question about body butter. I am using up a cocoa one on all the bits i can reach (not my back but DH always massages me with baby oil or lotion once or twice a week). last night he offered to use the body butter as it was out. once he'd done it my back started 'flaking' - doesn't happy anywhere else always end up lovely and smooth.

why??????

p.s. all the brazil nut stuff has been discontinued! Although you may still find it in the shops xo

I told my mum about it and she asked me to order her 3 of the cocoa butter ones (she swears by this and my mum has amazing skin for a 63 year old) so I got my fix that way! All the joy of online shopping and taking advantage of glitches but with none of the expense!
I'm very happy today, I (reluctantly) listed some unopened perfumes and gift sets I got at Christmas and my birthday on ebay and they all sold last night, which after p+p will have made me £72.55!! Quite impressed, I haven't sold on ebay for a couple of years.
Just finished a pack of Johnson's babywipes and used the dregs of an ancient Theramed toothpaste. I've been keeping my 'mist you madly' in my handbag to spray throughout the day so it seems to be going down (I have 3 big 250ml ones on the go ) and I gave a mini Flake Away to my pal yesterday as she wanted to try some Soap and Glory before she invested.
I'm nearly out of my favourite shampoo, so will be trying to use some of the random bottles I've bought in offers over the months. One thing I may have to buy soon unfortunately is my John Frieda Sheer Blonde mousse. I've never found another product quite as good at keeping my hair bright between colouring.
We're all doing so well girls, let's keep it up! :T

I am so tempted by a strawberry one too

Can I ask, does it count if you buy something, like lush soaps, with no intention of using them :rotfl: I use them as a nice air freshener in the bathrooms

morning ladies ,thought you might appreciate this on a cold monday!

New Supermarket Scam - please pass on to all your female friends!

Dear Girlfriends,

Please Please Please - make yourself aware of where this is happening AND tell your friends!

Over the last month I became a victim of a clever 'Eastern European' scam while out shopping. Simply dropping into Morrisons for a bit of shopping has turned out to be quite traumatic.

Don't be naive enough to think it couldn't happen to you or your friends.

Here's how the scam works:

Two seriously good-looking, young men with foreign accents come over to your car and help pack your shopping into the boot. They then both start cleaning your windscreen. Their firm young bodies bulging out of their skimpy vest tops. It's impossible not to look!

When you thank them and offer them a tip, they'll say 'No' and instead ask you for a lift to another store, in my case, Tesco's . You agree and they both get in the backseat.

On the way, they start undressing, and both get completely naked. Then, when you pull over to remonstrate, one of them climbs over into the front seat and starts kissing you, touching you intimately, and thrusting himself against you, while the other one steals your purse!

I had my purse stolen Nov 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th, 24th, and 29th. Also Dec 1st, 4th, twice on the 6th, three times last Saturday and very likely again this coming weekend.

So Be Warned!!!

P.S. Lidl have purses on sale for £1.99 each, Aldi are £1.75 and look nicer.

mind you no 1 is wearing more make up than me and looks younger than my son!!!!!!:rotfl:

Ummm....let's start with the good news: I've used up a small talc, 3 mag freebie sachets of moisturisers and a travel size shower gel but ... I didn't have any more moisturizer (except some icky retro cold cream - no good on my face) so I went & bought a day & a night firming moisturizer from Boots but fell into Bootser mode & ended up with 2 packs of wipes & two gwps as well (did use £10 of No 7 vouchers & a 250 point coupon though).... I'll get my coat

just cos you use small writing doesn't mean we can't all read it:rotfl:
