No Buying Toiletries in November Challenge....

Hello,

One UU for me: ancient Weleda lipbalm.WIBA? No, was quite waxy and didn't absorb well. After using Carmex, nothing else feels like its really doing anything, although the amount of tingling with that does sometimes worry me! Got oodles of lipbalm to get through still - unfortunately they're mainly tubs which I don't like as they're so unhygienic. Ah well!

I hate it when that happens!!!! Wish my OH would go out more often without me, I love having the house to myself lol.

Kaz, bummer having to work but Saturday night off will make up for it xoxo

another UU to report -S&G Clean on me shower gel, this was part of a very lovely set (think it's called All Around Her) that my very kind OH surprised me with a couple of months ago, I would buy this again as it lasted for ages and smells gorgeous.

Just a quick one, 2 throw outs for me, used a face wash and a facial scrub in the bath tonight and got a bad patchy rash across my neck soooo think it's time they got thrown out! I'll update more when I'm at the computer have a nice night x

UU Simple talc, WIBA? probably as i use a fair bit of talc but it didn't seem to last as long as the same sized bottle of baby talc so may just get it if i can't get the latter.
about to use up some sensodyn toothpaste. OH bought this and then didn't like it (quite a common refrain in our house). I'll be glad to get back to good ole fashion colgate but i'm wondering about the pearl whites stuff as would love fab white teeth.

I like having four nights a week to myself, but sometimes I really miss mine.


I UU the radox bubble bath I bought only recently. I'm chugging through bubble bath because its the nearest to luxury I get atm.

Feeling a bit low about it all, I need to get in the rhythm of the thread, my toenails have chipping dark nail varnish on them and y hands are really rough and nasty, especially one index finger, its shockingly bad.

we live quite near a spa and I swear to goodness I've thought about blowing my ''housekeeping'' money on a half day there rather than groceries and housekeeping, but I'm just too good.

I have all that stuff upstairs (just one box of extras now though) and never make time to use it and I feel rough....I've got into a bit of a routine of having an early evening bath, but feel uninspired to do more.

have to make a start I WILL atleast get this nail varnish off this weekend and try to deal with hard skin on feet. the rough skin on my finger too, then bring a pot of hand cream downstairs and start to use it again.:o

I've had to buy dental floss this week. I've also chucked out a Maybelline XXL Volume Length Mascara. I started to use this some time ago and didn't like it and so put it on one side. As I've recently had two UU's of mascara, I thought I would start to use this again rather than opening a new one but in the meantime it seems to have dried up. What a complete waste of money that turned out to be !

up early as Dh has the friday conference call with europe(ok for them its 8.30 but 7.30 for us and of course I also get woken at 6.30:mad::mad::mad:)
trying to switch power supplies to online as npower say its £250 cheaper but when I put the figures in the monthly charge is £32 more so that does not make any sense to me:eek::eek::eek:

ball tonight so need to do nails BUT nearly pulled 1 out a few weeks ago at the pool and it is still veyr short and low down on nail bed ,then yesterday I broke another pushing door open so think will have to go for a pale colour so they don't show up too much:(

Do you have an Avon rep locally that you know? If so, see if you can get their Dry Skin SOS hand cream. I know it's not been available for the last few campaigns but is back in Campaign 1 which is either the current, or the next book, depending on what mailplan your local people are on. It's £3.50, but is truly the most effective handcream I have used - when I had skin on my fingers which was so dry it was cracking last winter that sorted it out in just a couple of overnight applications, and so far this winter with occasional uses my hands have stayed fine. I just use a regular handcream in between times and use that a couple of times through the week, before bed.
