Actually didn't bin the nivea cleanser, shoved it in my bath as a sort of bath milk. It's gone yay!! WIBA- not a chance, doubt if they evn make it any more. Never liked the consistency, not "fat" enough.

Finished a mini bottle of Boots cleanser and a dry shampoo. But I did send for the Bodyshop hemp 3 for £10 on the Grabbit board as it seemed such a good deal.0

I'm going to use that shower gel uptonight. I should explain I live in my mother's house...DH and my dad are only here weekends and the house divides up sort of conveniently. I came back from overseas...um, about three years ago, to look for a house then found the house price forum here, and......then the credit crunch and prices for what we are looking for are still not rising, so we're still camping here for the time being.
So, my mother uses ''our'' shower....when she's showering, which isn't often....she doesn't much like showers. Usually she gets me to wash her hair for her in the bath.0 -

I'm on johnsons ones atm which I'm not a fan of either.
Gosh I'm fussy!
Oh I really like johnsons green ones, as they take my make up off easily. Gok said they are the best removing hard eye make up off. I always wash my face afterwards though as they can be a bit greasy.0 -
Used a Avon hot oil hair treatment and the last of a Chilli Pepper body polish today, wouldn't buy either again - ok but not great!I want a perfect body, I want a perfect soul, I want you to notice when I'm not around[/SIZE][/FONT][/B]0

I was also very nearly very bad today, I had an order on the Lloyds Pharmacy website which might have included perfume, deodrant, conditioner and shaving gel. Unfortunately the pay screen wouldn't work so actually I have been a good girl
(not for lack of trying though :rotfl:)

I helped my Nan clear some space in her bedroom today and while we were cleaning the top of her wardrobe I found a very old (40+ years she thinks) empty Chanel bottle, in the box and still with stopper
. Then I found more empty Chanel No5 bottles... one of them was a refillable handbag sized one and an enormous 100ml aswell :eek: Also an old Cristale (sp?) and a huge tub of No5 talc with loads still inside. It was better than the Chanel counter in GHL's
There must of been 8 bottles in total... one of those is still full because I bought it her this xmas
It was sad too because my Grandad bought the rest for her and he isn't here anymore
But the memories are still nice.
That's so lovely but sad too. I'm here now wishing I had a glamorous collection like that with memories attached as opposed to my very large collection of disposable plastic bottles.

Another conditioner used up today, along with the last dreg of the upside down shampoo. Now onto a matching set of trevor sorbie from the clearance shops.
I resisted hydrafresh ( which is definate BUY AGAIN) Im using that at the moment.
It was reduced to £2 in Asda home. :A I also went into £ shop and bought nothing although went and looked at the shelves and thought to myself that I have used better for cheaper ( ie the trevor sorbie or the sainsbugs coconut conditioner) so whats the point? Felt v virtuous.
Was paying for a drink in mr Ms earlier and had a wry smile to myself as the woman in front of me bought 15 bottles of dove bubble bathi thought- wonder how long it will take that to use up
:beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
This Ive come to know...
So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:0
