    A small UU to report - Boots Essentials cucumber face scrub. I used to use this all the time but then switched to Olay, found the dregs of a bottle when clearing out at the weekend - I hadn't realised how scratchy it is! Probably wouldn't buy again.

    Another UU for me to report today: a large tub of Bath and Body Works Japanese Cherry Blossom body butter. WIBA? If I'm in the States probably as the prices are cheap depending also on how the dollar is performing. I do have a tub of TBS version ready to open though.

    Hi Valm, I love their stuff too and have got that body butter iin my stash to use up at some point. When I was there they had buy 3 of their signature products get 3 free, yes I had a little splurge.

    Also have checked their website and they will only ship to the US and Canada, much to my OH delight! He works with a loads of Americans, so I might have to get htem to get me stuff when my stash runs out of course! :D

    Afternoon all, have finished another(!) of the GWP No 7 Microderm exfoliators.... this might have been the last one, hope so anyway, bored with it now. Thought I might have finished a few more things by now, but they still sputter on.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Well I need to discipline myself a bit. I have just ordered the new Avon hair serum as I've got a sample and its really good and I don't want my hair misbehaving anymore :)
    I am tempted to order the Avon shampoo and conditioner for sleek hair but I've just ordered some Wella shampoo and conditioner on line so to buy some more now would be OTT.

    Now I am back to using my foundation which has no SPF in it, I need a moisturiser with SPF so this will justify me buying another moisturiser.

    I have been sooooo good:)did not buy the Clinique stuff at Debs or the YSL stuff from JL:A:A:Aas decided I did not need to spend money buying stuff I did not need just to get more free stuff to add to the stash!

    did buy an eye liner brush...why do they cost so much £6.50? so as it was No7 3 for 2 I also bought some toner and an eyeshadow so got the brush free:)


    Did buy clothes but that,s another story:rotfl:

    Evening, everyone. Just reporting in to say that I had a nice trip around Boots today and didn't buy a single item of toiletries! I feel proud of myself, as my sister had been showing me the latest shower gel she'd bought. Hehe, I feel good!

    Nearly used up the Avon Cellulite cream - it's sputtering and difficult to squeeze. The top will definitely have to come off it tonight! Beyond that, I've kept to my routine and decluttered my bag so I've only got one of everything I need makeup-wise for work in there. At work I've got some of that Olay tinted moisturiser/foundation and I use a dab of that if I feel my makeup needs refreshing. I'm using the No.7 Mineral Foundation at the moment and am, to be honest, not sure about it - it doesn't last long enough for me. I'm an Estee Lauder Doublewear fan though so we'll see - the No.7 one is cheaper. Anyway, have a good evening, everyone.

    I've a UU! Nivea sensitive after shave balm for the men. WIBA? No, DH doesn't use them and I ended up using it as a body moisturiser. An expensive hobby and it didn't smell very girly :( Went away for a few days and left a nailvarnish for my sister to use. One less in the stash now :). Shall open up another something tomorrow to keep my feet pampered!
