    Morning all!

    The Dove Summer Glow worked, no streaking and the colour is nice and subtle. I don't know if I would ever abandon my fave Garnier Summer Body but this is good stuff for £1. :)

    Thanks for the comment on Dove Summer Glow - I have a bottle in the stash but have never used it - may give it a go now.

    At last the never ending No7 Reviving Eye Gel tube has come to an end - thought it would never go!
    Will crack open a Clinique eye gel next - not sure what its called but its an orangey colour I think (from memory!)

    I feel all :o now by your reactions to my stash:rotfl: Especially considering that its much less than it used to be:eek: I do have a tendency to stockpile things, I have cupboards full of toilet rolls, laundry stuff, washing up liquid etc as I hate the thought of running out *should probably insert a crazy girl smiley here*:rotfl:

    Pleased to report I have used up an item of my stash already, the philosophy unconditional love shower gel. It was really lovely, with a nice scent although not as strong as I expected it to be. As much as I liked it I wouldn't buy again as they are ridiculously expensive, and I only ever get the philosophy shower gels when they are included in a QVC offer set where they work out free as I would be buying the skincare items anyway.

    tara thanks for the review of the dove self tan, is that from Poundland?

    Oh the shame of it:o

    I just opened my fridge and discovered something I had completely forgotten about - the BS elderflower cooling eye gel. I have just applied some, and whacked some on the OH as well:rotfl:

    There is a 'minimum amount of toiletries' requirement to be allowed to participate... and no man would *ever* have that many! :rotfl: Just kidding!
