That must be the biggest stash ever!!! :T
I'm back ladies, I have been doing so well the last few months and now have fallen off the wagon again thanks to the dastardly grabbit board! But I really have been an angel - I've been using up stuff faithfully and haven't bought much - and I have bought nada from the Body Shop in months! :T
Sorry for abandoning you all, I was just spending too much time on here to the detriment of other things, so went cold turkey for about 5 months. I missed you though.
I will go off for a catch up through the thread, see you soon xoxo
Welcome back Tara! We missed you too. Hope you haven't been too naughty in your absence :rotfl:
As for news, erm, we've all been very well behaved!
To be fair, there have been a lot of use ups, lots of HG discoveries, some very impressive stash lists (and much jealousy as a result), and we even had a guy at one point! Though he disappeared again rather quickly...

Ok, you've convinced me tooMy curent one stings my eyes, so I havne't been using it (to be fair, OCM works fine, I just like something extra for tough stuff) so it shall be donated/binned, and this tried. Thanks to whoever below said it was on offer in Sainsburys, I'll pop down there to get it...

A few UUs from me quickly - all sample tubes/sachets:
Estee Lauder refinishing serum. Got another couple of these to use. WIBA? hmm, not sure, still got lots of P&P serum, but my skin did feel amazingly smooth after using this. Does need moisturiser as well though.
Dove body lotion of some kind... WIBA? No, too runny, and slightly sticky?! :eek:
Vaseline sheer infusions sachet. WIBA? No, ok, but nothing special - BS body butter all the way! :rotfl:
Also sold a few haircare things on eBay, woohoo! Out of my stash they go. I'm slowly getting through it...!0 -

I totally agree! I bought the sheer infusions thing yesterday because it was on offer and I needed new lotion, but it's awful! I don't think it sinks in that well and just feels like I'm coating my skin in conditioner! Just ordered a TBS body butter from ebay (so saving myself a bit of cash).
One UU to report today:
Lush Rehab shampoo 250ml - WIBA? Yes I would, love what it does to my hair, leaves it feeling so smooth. However I have half a tub of Curly Wurly shampoo left so need to use that up!Emergency Fund - £8572.39 / £10,000 :: Mortgage OP 2025 - £LISA 24/25 - £3200 / £4000 :: NSD 2025 - 2 / 150 :: Books Read: 1 / 52 :: Decluttering - 4 / 1000Engaged 9th December 2010 :: Married 29th October 2015 :: Bought a House 13th January 20170 -

Hello,
Some UUs for me:
Tesco Organic Soothing handcream: this has been hanging around for ages. When I first bought it, it smelled gorgeous but it seemed to wear off over time. And it wasn't very moisturising, so WNBA. It's probably discontinued anyway.
Sensodyne pronamel mouthwash: this is such a tiny bottle and it costs something like £4. I'll buy it on offer but refuse to otherwise!
Maybelline Great Lash brown mascara: love this and will definitely buy again once stash has run out - had to throw it away as it had been open for way over 6 months.
La Roche Posay mini - another one! I've got loads of these as the brand is really generous with their samples. My face has recently broken out but I don't think I can blame this.
GOSH concealer. WIBA? I'm a bit torn about this. I used to use Touche Eclat and bought this as a stop gap until I could afford it again. I do quite like this, although it doesn't have the same brightening effect as Touche eclat. I'll buy one of the two this weekend, depending on how flush I feel!
Ins:
Perfect 10 hair dye: bit nervous about this! I've never dyed my hair myself and normally spend a fortune getting it highlighted. I thought I'd give it a go though and if it goes horribly wrong, flee to the hairdresser.
Mouthwash/razor blades/toothbrush etc. Lots of things starting to run out now - think I'll soon have to quit this thread as I'm nearing the final bottles of most things! Can't work out if that's good or bad!0 -
