Ladies I opened a No.7 mascara lash 360 today, it was so bad after an hour I had to remove it. It made my eyes water, I was continually rubbing them and it generally felt uncomfortable and tight.

It was the 1st time I have used a no.7 mascara, will I be able to take it back I do not have the original receipt?

I have taken No7 products back to boots before that I've reacted to (and other boots products) and I've exchanged them fine, but with no receipt I would think it'll have to be an exchange so I'd check the price when you go in, get bits to that amount in a basket and then go to the No7 counter and exchange.

I've had reactions to several No7 products before, including eye shadow several years ago.

Is it easy to get to on public transport if I was in london for the weekend?[/QUOTE]

Practically impossible I hear! Probably best just to forget the idea altogether :rotfl:

I'm soooo near the end of a tub of body moisturiser.

So near, and yet so far: I'm sure that it lasts longer the nearer one gets to the end of the tub!

It always feels like this with the stuff you're not so keen on. I honestly believe the soap I'm using 5 times a week in the shower is going to last for months and months. It only takes 1 swipe with the puff to produce enough lather to wash myself head to toe.

I'm very anxious about the 4 unwanted tubs of cream on ebay. No watchers or bidders (as expected). Maybe I can reword the ad to ensnare some innocent child looking for a Mother's Day gift soon???? I SO don't want to have to use them up.:eek:

I popped into Crabtree and Evelyn when I was in town meeting a friend (but despite meeting outside Boots I never went in! :A)

I got a gel eye mask I'd wanted for ages and was tempted by their silk moisture enhancing gloves and socks. I have cotton gloves but decided to get a set of each of these as the gloves were bigger.

I've just tried both with some righteous butter - they say to use for up to 20 minutes - and I'm really pleased with how soft my hands and feet feel now. I'm going to leave them in the living room with some moisturiser and try and do it every evening - will help my hands and feet and my stash!

Are the S&G shower caps any good? I missed out on all the sets with them in and I was thinking of getting one as I want a shower cap.

Mine's doing that, too! Mind you, I think the next thing is a tube of bNatural body moisturising milk and I'm not absolutely certain how much I'm looking forward to that so.....!

I just KNOW that if the Boots clearance tomorrow have S&G Peachy Cream body butter that's going to make its way into my basket.

Some bits used up this evening - a sachet of Sanctuary face mask (another one of that type to go) and an optrex eye mask. Once I was out of the bath, covered in body souffle and in my jammies I slathered on Avon overnight foot treatment and Avon dry skin SOS hand cream and put my cotton socks and gloves on - an hour later = baby soft hands and tootsies!

It is a man :T he is so nice and normal it is untrue. He is debt free and not at all materialistic like the ex husband, I don't feel I have to be "up with it" all the time. He likes me for who I am not like the ex who tried to "mold" me, almost destroying the person I was. I am so happy today I could sing, but best not I am tone deaf!

Congratulations, joesaunt I hope the rest of your life might feel like this!:T

That was me, I think Makes sense if they are minis that they'll be used quickly, but a lot of what I'm seeing are fullsize products!


That's not OCD, it seems reasonable that if you have a dirty job you're going to have to wash more. I tend to only wash when I need it (ok I realise that sounds bad :rotfl:), rather than x times a day. But I only go to college, I don't do anything particularly strenuous through the day.


I'm going to be taking advantage of this offer too - almost finished my last bottle of take the day off (I bought 3for2 last time Boots had a Clinique offer on) so will buy two, as this is one product I can't find a good alternative to.

Can anyone tell me whether 10% off coupon is in an old copy of the Daily Mail, or in today's?

You need two copies, I believe. They are in today's, and should be in either tomorrow's or next week's as well (best check the newspaper thread in the Discounts forum for that!)

this is what I have to use up! I'm never going to get through it all!

Finally someone who has a similar sized stash to mine! (Although I still think mine is bigger... might get round to taking a photo sometime soon)

I have given a big bottle of S&G Clean On Me to a family member so that gets rid of that.. only 4 left!

I want to sell some of my S&G on ebay but it doesn't seem to go for much, and I don't want to lose money. Hmm, decisions.

Go on take a piccie, you know you want to (let me see how big the stash is) Plus I need to know if I can be any more amazed than I was when I saw Helen's stash lol.

I don't have an S&G one but have a Sanctuary shower cap you can have if you want it? It came with a gift set and I'll never use it.
