    Avoid QVC today unless you have run out of toiletries
    MFW 2016 No 68 £1300/£8500 No new toiletries Cook sth different
  • Evening girls...

    Taking me over an hour just to catch up on todays posts...

    Anyway today I used up an Anna Sui body thing, which came with the perfume, and a Ghost body lotion, again it came with the perfume. So onto a fcuk one now. Trying desperately to use up the No7 hand cream (it came with one of the xmas gifts),I think, like many of you have said, its too greasy...so hoping to report soon that it will be finished...

    Hope everyone enjoys tomoro....Whether your with someone or not, make sure you have a nice pampering day...

    Worth just using it up on your feet? No point in putting something on your hands that you don't like.

  • finally finished my "body treatments body butter - cocoa). WIBA - yes, it smelt fantastic and made my skin realllly smooth.

    next product....Avril Lavigne black star body lotion (which is nice but a bit too greasy, i prefer butters).
    loves how my "I've been censored" signature has been censored. LOL. Happy Christmas. :xmastree:

    shock horror, my deo died last night and when I went to my stash I had none:eek:

    had to go to OH,s stash and bag a right guard (unscented) one

    using up lots of little pots of no 7 moisturizers upstairs and have started a simple(regeneration.....DR Who?) one downstairs which I like ,only needs a little bit and does the job well.

    no sign of any romantic gesture from oH:(:(:(....not sure he deserves the romantic meal i have planned for tonight

    I also picked up a Debenhams beauty reward card, not sure how it works yet, but will come in handy when I purchase my Clnique products

    I saw this on the website ,seems a pain that you have to go into the store(I hardly everdo as it is not in main shopping area) then you have to activate it online :eek:

    clinique bonus time on now at Debs till the 28th

    I've been wondering the exact same thing! I'm getting really bored of my virgin vie ones. I have a blue and a brown. I got a max factor set last year from MiL and it had an eye shadow which I decided not to open until I had used up my others. I've binned a No17(?) one (I think!) as I have not managd to use it up in nearly 9 years. I have stopped using the brush for my eyeshadow and am using an applicator, still it's not going down. I've stopped wearing the brown and am just using the blue now but this is getting silly! I have 2 opened, and now have 3 unopened (2x no 7 from gwp's but they are different colours!). Where am I going wrong (or right actually!)?

    I have, but not often. It tends to be 'base' colours which I use more. I had one pale gold I used every day and I used that up. :)

    I found the same with the no.7 cream, so I slathered it all over my feet one night and put some socks on, before I went to bed. Left my feet feeling great but it is way too greasy for hands.
