No buying toiletries in March challenge!

Used up a couple of things today, another Lush bath bomb and a sachet of Loreal Demaq cleanser to toner. WIB? Thumbs down for Demaq - it started to go liquidy before I even got it to my face, so it was a race to get it rubbed over my face before it dripped off my chin. Didn't leave face feeling particularly clean or toned either.

Bought a small tube of Scholl foot cream to try as it was only 99p in Home Bargains, and quite small, so I can easily use it up in a week. Don't have any foot cream atm so that was a necessary buy.

Also needed anti-p so bought a couple of Sure mineral ones which were half price in Tesco (only 150ml size, but two were cheaper than the 250ml size).

Finshed my pot of No7 Essential Moisture Day Cream today.:j Night cream must only have a few applications left as well.

Back to finishing the Clinique Dramatically Different it is...

Oh gawd trudij, I feel your pain! Bung it on yer feet every night with socks on over the top. It might keep the smell at bay?
I have reached a decision, the John Frieda stuff I got for Christmas is going to be brought into work (the serum and the conditioner). I like the shampoo. I don't need to condition my hair when I use it. I hate the conditioner. It feels and looks like phlegm. It smells gack and it seems to dry my hair out. The serum- what's that all about? It's like I've not washed my hair in a week when I use that. I got up for work the other morning at 6 and looked in the mirror and couldn't believe it. I knew I'd washed my hair the night before but it was gross.
So John Frieda hair products WIBA? Erm let me think, shampoo if cheap, the rest, no chance!

Well,the news yesterday that Liz Earle has sold out to Avon has probably done me a huge favour. I respected her use of non-animal tested products etc and my stash is maily LE stuff. I will of course work my way through it-and enjoy it-but I can't see the products staying the same long term, and also don't find Avon as ethical, so I will eventually be looking for a new range (same as when Body Shop sold out to l'oreal.) I had to laugh at some of the comments on the facebook page though-the way some people were talking you would think someone had died!

Can I get that parrot green eyeshadow now?

Hmm, I'd say no if you're going to go for that offer, as I suspect you'd buy 3 - when you only want 1. So you'd end up spending £9 to get the one eyeshadow you want. If you really really do want it, just buy it by itself - then it's only £4.50, which is less than you would spend bu doing that offer.

Or just keep holding out

do you just put the serum on the mid lengths and ends of your hair before you go to bed? i used to find that happening to me (looks like i washed my hair in chip fat) so i used to put it no higher than my ear line on my hair and then in the morning if it looks slightly frizzy at the top put the tiniest amount (half the size of a pea or less) and just smooth over the top. i also find john freida conditioners that you only need half the amount of conditioner that you might need with other brands
i dont mean to preach to the converted but i have found that is the best way ignore me if you already have tried other ways but it might help others?
