    And speaking of cleanser I believe Shu Umera cleansing oil is the absolute best but it's very expensive as far as I know and not as readily available as other brands.
    I really love the Kanebo cleansing oil. It works really well and smells amazing.
    Unfortunately, it's very expensive and Kanebo is now only sold in Harrods :(
    I have a full one in my stash that I'm saving for a treat :D I've also started using jojoba and castor oil, which doesn't smell as nice but does clean well.

    Confession time
    I bought 3 new products BUT I didn't pay with cash because I had to return some items without reciept to boots and was told to have an exchange so I chose soap&glory scrub your nose init,a max factor pressed powder which I would have had to pay cash for anyway as I've almost run out and a ysl elle giftset.
    I'm also hoping to adopt the garnier roll on thingie which hubby bought for himself.

    I've also started using some bodyshop face wipes for removing makeup at night followed by a little bit of vitamin e facial oil .The wipes smell lovely and the facial oil leaves my face feeling soft and absorbs quickly but I will have to use these items for a bit longer to decide if I WIBA.

  • Morning everyone sos not posted for a few days,

    I was very naughty last night :(



    BUT it was only 70p :D

    shampoos in tescos reduced, i had LOADS of aussie stuff in my basket aswell (half price) but i put all that back and only got one silverkrin shampoo at 70p :D

    So monthly spend for toiletries so far in feb is grand total of 70p so far, and i found 80p yesterday so didnt really use my own money for it :)
  • morning all
    no use ups to report here BUT more importantly no gains:T

    i have got two bottles standing to their lids to the bathrooom to get the dregs out later so hopefully they will be gone by tomorrow (a bodyshop oceanus bodylotion and a morrys cheapo vitamin E cleanser)

    hoping to get time to change nail polish later it looks rubbish now - i only did it monday

    What are you scared of Jac, the Ebaying process or parting with your goodies?

    Morning ladies-I'm going to get booted out of this thread -don't blame me though blame boots.

    They have reduced bio oil
    They have reduced the lee stafford box of tricks
    They have got the frontcover rainbow eyes reborn on offer for a limited time
    They have a maxfactor gwp -I love maxfactor gwp & I use 3 products regularly
    and I desperately need/want/will use all of the above.

    I have a £3 off mascara voucher for maxfactor
    I only have about £20 in points left as I spent £60 worth on baby items
    I am almost out of bio oil and need some more for bump
    I gave my last front cover set to sis.

    Am I allowed?:)
    Love can tame the wildest
