  • Well,

    I've finished: 2 conditioners which had been opened for ages.
    I've binned: Half a pot of face cream (comp prize) which was old and separated to leak oil.
    I've bought: 1 Palmolive shower gel and 1 copy of Glamour magazine (free shampoo) as I was caughty short again staying over at someone's house without enough provisions.
    I'll soon need: Toothpaste, mouthwash, toothbrush heads (or just a cheap manual brush for now while money is tight), dental floss and deodorant.

    Today I have used up-
    A bodyshop blusher -WIBA I would love too but it is no longer available as it was last years summer version.
    A clinique eye defining eyeliner-WIBA Yes this is my musthave
    John Frieda volumising shampoo mini-WIBA-No I'm not fussy about shampoo and I still have a boxful of John frieda shampoo from the tesco glitch.

    I got a little bit carried away in boots yesterday
    Maxfactor creme puff,Maxfactor weightless foundation,2 rimmel lipsticks and a mini maxfactor polish.
    I really needed the creme puff pressed powder , the other bits just fell into my basket.
    Also the bodyshop blusher will be replaced with a similar MAC blush which sis will be picking up for me today.
    Love can tame the wildest
