No Buying Toiletries in November Challenge....
Comments

It's my birthday tomorrow and I've already got a present of the Soap & Glory travel samples (It's in a gift bag with one of the sides sticking out of the top telling me exactly what it is, so it's not like I opened it!). Woo hoo!
I think another present might also be lovely smellies, but that's very well wrapped (Yes, I did try to peek!)
Please call me 'Pickle'

I'm glad to hear that the Elasticizer is doing the trick though. I'm going to do mine in the morning. I'm getting quite scared about how much longer this one is going to last me - it's down to the last inch. :eek:
The elasticizer is really doing the trick for me too, amazing stuff! Must use it again today...It's my birthday tomorrow and I've already got a present of the Soap & Glory travel samples (It's in a gift bag with one of the sides sticking out of the top telling me exactly what it is, so it's not like I opened it!).

Let us know what smellies you get so we can be very envious
I finally made it across to Harrods today on the very last day of the Clinique bonus time! Got my lovely Clinique DD Lotion, and the All About Eyes gel - I didn't have any eye cream either, and I've used this before and know I like it, so 2 totally justifiable purchases, yay
I'll use everything in the bonus kit too, apart from the eyeshadow (I have enough!) but I'm sure I have a friend who will appreciate it! I actually quite like the lipstick, although I normally don't like any lipstick, so that's good! The little lipstick holder though I'll use to hold stud earrings I think
Still £49 spent though, ouch! And £2.34 on Thursday for the L'Oreal eye makeup remover. No more spending allowed this month now!:p0 -

evening all
a couple of use ups to report:
Bio Oil - this has been knockng around for ages (from OH operation 3 years ago!) WIBA yes i have been using this as a night treatment and is very good.
Kiehls body scrub -WIBA yes, these products are excellent if very expensive. It was really scrubby and made my skin so smooth, this with the creme de corps really last on the skin.
Wax awayy - WIBA yes these are excellent strips and easy to use.
Am trying to keep up with the challenge - have got 2 weekends away coming up and plan to make a dent in my sachet stash!trying hard to be debt free by the end of 20100 -
