  • Hi everyone - just found the February thread! At the end of January I went into Lush and bought a few things - oops! But it was a party and so got a free goodie bag! Haven't got anything yet this month. :) Still using up lots of stuff.

    And :T:T on the body wash!!! I have 3 of them still awaiting my attention lol.

    p.s. fruit tea, bleh! I prefer herbal myself. :D

    Me too, i drink a lot of fennel tea which is great for milk production (still bfing dd) and also acts as an appetite supressant.

    I haven't bought anything, not even the body shop stuff :A



    Have used up so much stuff since I last posted (I just saw that I've been thanked by Rebecca Bloomwood - how cool is that? :D:p):
    Seriously snipped
    Am i missing something, who is this pls?

    Queen ONMW. I am convinced cause i will return said perfume, but as im trying to take this quite seriously i do feel a tiny twinge of th guilt monster.
    £46 was spent on clothes for dd plus the gift set plus lunch plus a toilet training seat, best buy ever ds2 wanted to use it straight away and he has really been resisiting the toilet. It did annoy my dh though as i had to take the eldest to some after school activities and ds 2 kept wanting to go the toilet, weeing a tsp of wee just to use his new robot seat:rotfl:. Ahh kids you gotta love them.

    You laugh because I'm different......I laugh cause I just farted!

    Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt. (A.C)

  • I'm feeling really down today :( So i'm trying to pamper myself by painting my nails but just feel really stupid.

    What's the matter then? You're not stupid. You have been doing so well with your not buying. Has someone upset you? What coulour have you painted your nails?

    I've been Money Tipped!
    I have painted toe nails, plain to do fingers tomorrow. I've almost finished Roc night cream, with no other heavy moisturiser for night. I think I'm going to cope with oil, daytime roc and lighter summer moisturiser, or try to before automatically rebuying. :)

    I just miss home a lot more than I expected. I'm away at uni but done it to be closer to my boyfriend of a long time. I have a little sister and I miss her more than anything in the whole world. The love I feel for her is sometimes unreal she's like, the greatest part of my life and everytime I say her name I have to stop myself from crying. I'd just like to move home with my boyfriend but apparently jobs dont justcome up :(

    well I've got one more use of my soap and glory daily smooth body butter which will be used up tomorrow. I know I've been saying that for days but since I cut the tube open it's been going on for days and days!:D

    My frizz ease shampoo and conditioner have got one, maybe two washes left in them. First time I've used it, nothing to rave about. I personally think that it doesn't tame my hair it in fact makes it more fly away and I usually use 1 bottle to shampoo to 2 bottles of conditioner but doesn't seem to be the case with this....in which case I'm going to end up with a bottle of conditioner spare! I've got another premium brand (Trevor Sorbie I think) to try in my stash next which was bought with boots hair vouchers in Nov/Dec, so no excuses to buy any more just yet.

    I've got two more visits of my boots skin care trial, so I'm still washing with the washout product (boots own green showergel) until after my last visit on monday, then back to S&G clean girls :yay:
