My favourite lipstick has been discontinued - Revlon's Colourfast Rich Raison
and I've been trying to find a replacements. Nightmare. Think I may have found one! Maybelline's 18 Superstay in colour 310 (Forever Heather). Love the colour and the way it stays on! They're currently £5.99 in Boots. I have £54 worth of points on my Avantage card so I used that to buy the lipstick :j Think I might stock up on a couple more, in case THAT gets discontinued :mad:
Proud to be dealing with my debts - DFW Member 1205!LBM Aug 2006 - Debt £35K. Debt: JAN 2020: £0!!
No New toiletries till I've used what I've got. DFW Long Haulers supporter 221.0 -
Just sitting in the office and have had another UU
Clarins Hand and Nail teatment cream - WIBA - YES it is heavenly, will wait until an offer is on though.
have even brought another hand cream in from my stash for my desk already!!New surname New start!
Total Debt - [STRIKE]£9999.09 [/STRIKE]now 7633.16 23.66% paid off0 -
1 UU - M&S hand cream WIBIA - maybe depends on the price, it had a nice smell and left my hands soft buit have plenty of hand creams to use up first!
Also nearly UU a Radox showergel and a travel sized shampoo. :-)Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.
Take time but don't waste time0 -

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
Well done on the £25 my lovely, and have a great time on your date! :beer: Wear something low cut or short and your date's not even going to notice the back of your head.Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted. Einstein0 -
Finished off another body lotion this morning, it was only a small one though. Just another 32 to go :j
Have also been thinking, I have half a bottle of massage lotion but it's not a nice massage lotion so I thought about maybe using is as a body lotion instead but it's one of these lotions that when you rub it in you get bits (like when you're in the bath and rub off dead skin). Not sure what I should do with it. I have got another bottle of this stuff but thought about e-baying that one.Did owe £9,951.96
Now helping hubby pay off loan. Finally paid off :j

How about rubbing it on your body just before you get in the shower and then rinsing it off, a bit like an exfoliator but you apply it before you get in the shower. Putting the other bottle on e-bay sounds like a good idea!0 -
No Use-Ups for me today, sadly, but I shall be getting there with one of my body scrubs! As a little treat for houseworked hands (I get bad dry and flaky patches in spite of the hand cream) I'll use a tiny amount of body scrub on dry hands, rub it in, and then wash it off before putting hand cream on. I'll only do that when they really need it though - currently about once a day
That should help for the 3 or 4 (that I can see) body scrubs I've got...
Also, I've just emptied my work bag and discovered a small Boots' counter in thereI feel a bit disheartened now. I've pared it down so that I have one eyeliner, one concealer, one mascara and one eyeshadow in there and attempt to use it up sensibly. Tonight, I shall paint my toenails and epilate my legs!
Have a good evening, everyone.

Seeing as my name is Footymadgal I just have to join in with the football chat. I do love my football and the bonus of being a female football fan is the eye candy! However, amongst my male football friends I talk about the merits of the team, tactics etc. but amongst you girls I am free to voice other opinions, such as I agree that Casillas is a hunk and Villa is not bad either :cool:.0

I gave into temptation today and on the way to work bought Red magazine for the Neal's Yard Remedies moisturiser freebie. It claims to replenish and protect dry skin. Sounds like one to use in the winter and it smells gorgeous. I've no intention of using it yet though, it will have to wait in the queue until I've used up various others first! I needed a little treat fix as I had a bad day yesterday. Today has been a lot better, however, I've had to bring some work home with me as I'll never get everything done that needs doing tomorrow. I must do a couple of hours of work before I go to bed. It's a right pain but it will ease the pressure tomorrow.
I had a surprise UU this evening: Boots floss. So I've now started on my last one, except for the one I keep at work with a toothbrush and paste to use before dentist appointments and going out straight from work.0 -
State of play for me is below (all in one go this time.
) Grey is bought last month, Purple is bought this month and Red is for Usey Uppys.
I really need to go cold turkey this month as it's Beauty Month on QVC :eek: :eek: :eek: and I just had a massive splurge on Mally make up and OPI nail polish. (To be added to this list when/if I decide to keep them.)
