Sorry, but I think someone said a few pages back that they have discontinued the Brazil Nut one? I might be wrong though. I just had a feeling that was where one of the glitches came in, that they were trying to clear dead stock.

Hi girlies!
I finished a few products recently and I feel sooo proud of myself. Even though I thought my stash was getting low, I've managed to resist the 4 for £3 offer in asda.
Managed to finish:
Clinique Facial Soap. WIBA? No because I'm currently using up my Dove beauty bars on my face which is working very nicely!
Botanics Body Wash. WINA? Yes. It was very nice but I need to reduce my stash first!
Botanics Nourishing Body Butter WIBA? No. Rather bizarrely, I found the greeny colour really off-putting!
Been using Body Shop Coconut body butter but may not finish - I smell like a glass of malibu and it's driving me mad!
Wonder what I can use my saved money towards...Saving all my pennies0 -
I love that eye brightening cream too. Wish they hadn't discontinued it! Luckily, I think I have one or two in my stash
Must get round to doing a picture!!
I know, it's such a shame they stopped doing it. Made my eyes look much brighter....Oh well...
Hopefully see your piccie soon.

There are even beauty products in the fridge which I found when I cleaned it earlier:o
There was a LUSH "love lettuce" facemask, the fresh ones that they keep on ice in the shop (so it's supposed to be in the fridge). It had expired ages ago though so I used it as a scrub to exfoliate my legs in the shower. Does anybody manage to use those up? You're supposed to apply it every day but once a week is as much as most people would use a facemask.
There's also a Garnier eye rollerball eye cream. I put that back in the fridge because it's even more refreshing really cold.

Ladies, I have had a semi-epiphany. Like you, I love love loved the eye brightening cream. Anyway, this week I had some of those £5 off time delay vouchers and I discovered that the Time Delay Wrinkle Reduce Eye Cream is pretty much the same (as far as I can remember) as the eye brightening cream.

And only £1.84 when using the £5 off voucher. I have stocked right up! Also the Time Delay Wrinkle Night Serum appears to be V V similar to Protect and Perfect and only £6. :T0 -

Thanks for this....Just had a quick look on boots website. I actually think I picked this one up with one of the vouchers, (as it was the cheapest thing to buy really, that I would use) Anway, just shoved it into cupboard to use after the No7 p&p I'm currantly using and didn't look at it until just now. Have opened the box, and you're right, it looks just the same...Fingers crossed, coz it was really nice...
Thanks again :T:hello:No more toiletries challenge :T

Phew i've finally got to the end of the thread it's taken me days!:cool:
I had 2 bottles of some really horrible manly smelling green shower gel that i don't even know where it came from and was dreading using. I usually use Tesco bath creme in my soap dispensers but have run out and decided to use the shower gel instead. Ds2 was amazed this morning when he went into the bathroom today and there was green soap.:D He hasn't stopped talking about it all day so the other one will be going in there too.
I've used up 1 of the horrible shower gels, 1 razor and a bubble bath. I'll update my list at the beginning of March. I still haven't bought anything i didn't need.
I still haven0
