i really must get over to the freebies board, i think my problem is i hardly use up the stuff i do have so that would just be more in the cupboard. BUT it's free....

Once you start to receive a couple a week it's great, it really starts to take away from the fact that you can't buy anything! Feels like a free treat, plus it's better than buying something that it then turns out you don't like - at least this way there's no spend involved x

Afternoon lovelies! :wave:

I'm sorry I've not been around much, I've been a poorly chick. Hopefully on the mend now though.

Quite a few UUs for me and a a couple of confessions!

UU Hairfix 123 System 400ml 3 (the conditioner - I always run out of conditioner first!) WIBA? Yes Indeedy! It makes my basically Ok - but slightly wavy, slightly coarse and tending towards being a little bushy - hair sleek and smooth, well behaved, easy to style, and take up less room and time than usual! I have a 50ml in my stash and then I shall have to buy some of this.

UU A'kin Cellular Radiance Serum 23ml WIBA? Yeah baby! I don't use moisturiser at night any more I just use oils and my skin looks prety darn good on it. (If I do say so myself!) I have hardly had a monthly breakout, redness flare up, dry area or blotchy patch since I instituted this new regime. This oil is one of my faves, but I have equal faves Mir Argan Oil and Shizen Facial oil on the go as well so I won't need to replace this for a while.

UU No7 Protect and Perfect Body Serum 200ml WIBA? Absolutely. I love this stuff. I use it all over when I can be @r$ed and on trouble spots on a daily basis. I have one in The Stash so I don't need to buy another yet even though they are on 3 for 2 at the moment.. Gah! I would normally always stock up as soon as they were 3 for 2 if I was on the last one. As I am now...Hmmm. We'll have to see about that.

UU Oilatum Bath Oil WIBA? I don't know. I prefer non bubbly, not too scented baths so I bought this. It's fine, but it's mineral oil. I will probably buy it again because I don't know what else to buy!

Ummmmm, so confessions... bought another YBF neutralizing cream because I use it most days, and have hit the bottom of the pan. I absolutely rely on it when my redness flares up and the thought of running out made my stomach flip in panic! :eek::D:o

Hubby treated me to some more Jo Malone Grapefruit "cos he was passing the shop" Awwww! He bought it to cheer me up cos I've been poorly and grumpy! Love him. :heartpuls :kisses3:

Ooh and the hospital gift shop had the magazine with the Jemma Kidd lipgloss in it and all three colours were there -so in a moment of weakness I grabbed them! :eek::o

Did I mention I've not been well? :rotfl:

Hope it's all going well for you! xxx

Jacks where do you buy YBF neutralizing cream from i can only ever find the powder and i have been wanting the cream for a long time.

No more useups, but after my bottle combining exercise and throwing away of things I really will never use/have gone off, all my hair stuff now fits in a normal sized carrier bag with lots of spare room (still thinking about packing you see )

I'm thinking about doing the same with body moisturisers and nail varnish remover.

Plus I'm almost at the end of a body butter.

:wave: I picked mine up on eBay - just spotted it and pounced - but they have it on Ideal World shopping channel occasionally. I've never seen anything like it from any other brand. (Sorry not be more help:o)

Just had a thought:

This lady has put a neutralizing powder and cream up for sale together a few times with no takers. It might be worth asking her if she could list the cream separately?

@Trudij, I've just put a 25L brew of elderflower champagne on tonight I've had a glass of one of the others too and I'm pretty sure that it's not alcoholic yet. Night night all, I'm pooped!

Ive got another two bottles new in the fridge, in the vain hope that they will last till Sunday when my brother comes down - having got my last one to go bubbly, I'll be really miffed if one of these doesnt !!! I want to make some more, but I cant reach a lot of the flowers,and im scared if I pinch all the low ones there wont be any berries for when I do the berry recipes... :beer::beer::beer::beer:

and ive got a body lotion too!!



U
Jacks - hope you are properly on the mend now

Hugs to you Jacks- hope you're getting back to normal now.

Another one here with the Dove moisturiser from the freebies board. LT - it's something free to use, of course you shouldn't give up on it!

does anyone on here do the boots testing thing? not sure if it's any good.
