    Does anybody have Moroccan oil hair products? They are on my wanted list and wondering what people think of them?

    Raven, when did you get your Clinique kit? I applied too but haven't received anything yet x

    Mine came today - it contains a 15ml tube of facial soap, a 15ml clarifying lotion and a 15ml moisturiser - not bad as a trial. Will be good for a weekend away/travel.
    Quite pleased with mine:beer:

    bunnykins does the SSS oil actually work? i'm being bitten to !!!!!!y and just can't find anything to stop the beasties. I have got some of the oil as i'd heard about it properties but i'm not sure if i got the right smell, and i know i probably didn't use it enough.

    I find it works well for me in this country - haven't tested it abroad yet (will be doing next month though). I use the standard one in a bottle with blue writing and spray it on shamelessly when going outside of an evening (rub well in though;)) HTH

    Thanks to everyone for the advice on mixing my foundation and moisturiser. I'm now experimenting using the back of my hand as a palatte. Will let you know how I get on.:beer:

  • Finally finished the Innoscent Body Spray from Loreal, so happy! I was really getting bored of it, I can now spray myself with Vera Wang's Princess which I love and will buy again once I finish this bottle.

    I'm also coming up the last dregs of Avon's Rich moisture face cream, WIBA? No, it's a good filler item when it's on offer but I can only wear it at night as it leaves my face looking white.

    I managed to use up Boots Soltan face SPF 30 whilst on holiday. WIBA? Maybe, it can a bit greasy but I think it provides good protection. Also used up two Amplex deodorants from Superdrug which cost 79p each. WIBA? No, again you get what you pay for, it did not provide adequate protection from heavy sweating.

    Very pleased with myself today. I've been into town and to 3 supermarkets and didn't venture into Boots, Superdrug or any of the toiletry aisles :A And when I got home the Avon girl had popped the book thru the door, I glanced at the cover thru the bag and put it back out on the step for her to collect minus an order!! :j:j:j

    UU St Ives body scrub today. I bought it to use before doing my fake tan! It's okay, but there's nicer out there. Done the job though, I'm so glad I finally finished something! Did have to buy some hairspray today though.

    Noooo.

    In my packing and sorted I found another small stash of toiletries. Will have to do a new inventory when I'm unpacking at the other end in a few weeks (staying at the petboys place for a week or so which is an hour away from where he works and I'm wanting to live).
    It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.
