  • I used up a mini bottle of shampoo today and finished a large bottle of Dove Conditioner, so two more bottle for the bin. WIBA? Yes because I love Dove Shampoo and Conditioner.

    The only item I am tempted by at the moment is the Waitrose Cinnamon Bath stuff, it smells amazing...

  • Hi everyone,

    I love looking at stash pictures. If I figure out how to post one, I'll have a go!
    Haven't finished anything yet, but nearly finished my boots extracts cocoa body butter, botanics softening body wash and clinique facial soap.

    Contemplating using up my several dove beauty bars on face...

    Anyone tried this? Xx

  • Can't remember who was talking about clicking something on Facebook to win an I phone, or if I've even got that right, but a colleague just said there's a scam around involving this kind of thing (was on the news today). If you join up to it, a virus is installed in your PC which can read all your online banking details the next time you log on. Just thought I'd post it in case it's the same thing that was mentioned? I'm not on Facebook so I've no idea what I'm talking about really. Sorry if I'm talking rubbish.

    WARNING!!!! The acetone in nail varnish remover may melt rubber gloves.....you could end up with rubber glove stuck to your beautifully painted nails. It has happened to me before.:eek:

    Morning all!

    Happy belated birthday thifty!!! :beer:

    I agree with those who don't watch QVC so as not to be tempted... I don't watch it cos I find the sellers really patronising! :rotfl: Otherwise I'm sure I'd have succumbed to the TSVs by now.

    Used up: a can of Batiste dry shampoo, so that's £1.95 into the savings pot. WIBA: Yes, I love it and have another 2 cans in reserve. A tip for any Batiste virgins though - DON'T buy the original scent (blue can) - it absolutely mings, try the blush one (pink can).

    I am feeling fat and yucky today, sooo need to lose some weight but can't quite get it right. I am having a couple of good days followed by a couple of bad days like a merry go round! Gah.

    rosemary54, your body oil sounds gorgeous!! Hope your psoriasis eases soon xo

    Hope everyone is well this lovely (ahem) morning!
