    morning everyone - I seem to be on a roll with 2 UU today,

    TIGI S factor Volume spray - WIBA - NO, it is good and smells great but I have tried better (oh and have loads to use up!!)
    BS Mango Whip body lotion - WIBA - YES! it smells fantastic and lasts a good while too.

    Started my next face cream out of the stash today, only a 30 ml one - so probably wont last that long!

    Happy using up everyone!
    New surname New start!

    Morning girlies hope your having a good one!

    UU so far...
    Belle Color Hair Dye WIBA umm no although I am used to dying my hair this has somehow made my hair patchy :(:cry: I'm at a loss what to do about it so it's scraped up into a ponytail at work. I know I did cover my hair equally so can't understand how this happened and I'm off on hols on Sat morning so having a bit of a dilemma about what to do with it. My hair at the moment was light/mid brown and this was a dark brown so you can imagine what I look like - a bit like someone with black hair deciding to get highlights and them turning orange grrr :eek:

    L'oreal Nutrisummer Gradual Tan WIBA I used to use this all the time but can't remember why I stopped - you only need to use it perhaps twice a week to have a nice colour. I have broken out in a spot on my face which I think is bringing back memories of why I stopped using this. I still have half a tube left to use from my last unopened bottle of this so I will make a judgement after that although I think I'll probably stick to my Fake Bake!

    Think I might have some deo's UU to announce before the weekend (any my hols wahoo!) , and some other bits and bobs, shampoos etc.

    Well done on all the UU girls, excellent progress being made!

    Hope you all get out your red nail varnishes to cheer on Spain at the weekend ;) :T hehe most gorgeous team ever! The goalie bears more than a passing resemblence to Orlando Bloom

    Anyways back to topic, have fun pampering!xx

    Off topic but - yes! 100% agree with this - SO fit. I'm lucky in that I support Spain anyway so I can watch them without it looking like I'm being a girl...but...Fabregas, Alonso, Villa - yes please ;)

    I don't even have any Spanish heritage - trying to convince myself that because my mum's Irish there probably is some somewhere down the line ;) I just wish I was Spanish (Catalan, Basque, whatever) and am counting the days until I retire and can go and live there! :D

    Ahh that's my claim, both parents are irish and I'm a typical stereotype, have an surname thats both irish and spanish in origin, and family tree has it on both sides (one spanish great great grandparent on both sides - weird!). It's such a beautiful country and the people are lovely.

    Anyway they play a very attractive game of football and that's all that matters (the interpretation of attractive football is left up to us ;) ) hehe

    Ta, I'm really not sure, I think i might have to go get another one and get someone to colour my hair for me, as the patchiness is at the back so will be hard for me to apply properly IYSWIM, maybe apply to the uncoloured bits for 10mins then leave on the whole head for another 10mins. Or knowing me, I'll forget and toddle off on holiday and just put up with it till i'm home :rotfl: sure the sea, sun and chlorine will mute it anyway. Only problem is, I have a date tonight :rotfl:

    On the plus side just sold a perfume I wasn't keen on on eBay and made £25 :eek: it was only a 50ml Christina Aguilera one! That's brightened me up a lot! lol x
