  • My first UU of the month Angel Fish leave in conditioner WIBA - erm to be honest I didnt buy it, it was my daughters who got it last year for xmas but didnt use it, so I did (she uses everything else of mine! lol) but I can highly recommend it, smells of coconut and leaves my hair lovely and soft and shiny. I have also acquired the serum and volumising spray lol
  • Ooh!! Fiasco55 I LOVE the Imperial leather Jojoba milk & vitamin E shower cream. I love the smell and it makes my whole bathroom smell gorgeous! Only 50p....I suppose it would be rude not to! BUT I will try very hard to resist the temptation because i really don't need any atm!

    Two UU's to report today. Vaseline cocoa butter smoothing body butter and Boots cocoa butter body butter. They were both pretty much empty and today I really had to admit defeat and accept that I wasn't going to get any more out of the pots! WIBA? Yes but only if they were on special offer (as they were when I bought these). I love cocoa butter....I think Palmers is my favourite but these weren't bad alternatives if they were available for the right (read cheap!) price! The Vaseline one did smell a bit "suntan creamy" tho! Won't be buying any until i've used up some more of my stash though.

    I'm starting on a passion fruit body butter from the BS. Nearly empty already so shouldn't take me long to get my next UU! Especially with my horrible dry skin!

    Still got no IN's to report. Suspect this is due to the fact that i've not been into boots rather than a testament to my willpower!

    and lastly has anyone tried keratese hair products?
    many thanks xx

    I have Kerastase 'Oleo Relax', a leave in conditioner, it has been in the cupboard for about three years - I think it's rubbish and did nothing to detangle my hair. I think the only reason I haven't dumped this yet is because it was so expensive and I haven't got the heart to chuck it out.

    I haven't tried any of their other products, xx

    I forgot to mention my Ins:

    four eye shadow palettes second-hand from my sister. Always useful, but I have dozens of eye shadows. I will never get through them all.:(


    I threw 4 biggish pallets away at the weekend - if Id realised you were down to your last dozen Id have posted them over ;)

    Ooops, 2 more UUs from the weekend I'd forgotten about!

    Simple Intensive Night Cream. WIBA? No - i think this irritated my skin! I developed some weird not-quite spots on my face, so used the rest of this on my neck and decollete, and my face started getting better again. I have a pot of matching day cream unopened, and not sure if I should risk it now...

    Step away from the pot fixx! Your skin is telling you. So either use it up on your neck, or give the pot to a friend, relative or even charity.

  • 2 Ins yesterday:

    2 x Sure deodorants

    I was getting things in Boots yesterday for christmas basket/hampers, using my no7 voucher and those £5 skincare vouchers, needed to buy 2 to make my spends up to £3.50 to get another voucher. They were £1 each, and not like they won't get used!

    On another note, i have now got 5 of the £5 off facial skin care vouchers to use! I was getting very strange looks at the self scans with all my vouchers!

    2 UUs - packet of Tesco wipes and a bottle of Pantene. Other than that, very slow progress - I think I'll still be here this time next year, if the threads are still going....:rotfl:

    uu almay firming body cream(freebie with half price perfumes)WNBA did nothing for me(still flabby!!!) and left a residue on my skin.:(
  • One UU for moi this morning - L*0real True Match face powder WIBA yes it's been in my stash for a couple of years i'm ashamed to say, received as a cast off from my sister and I began to use it and then abandoned it, but since I've gone back to it it's been very pleasant and I definitely would buy again, once I've used up the rest! On to a pressed face powder by Boots 17 now which from memory was quite nice but always gave a lot of powder off on the puff/sponge/applicator

    I received my oils from perfume parlour - impressed with the similarity of the smells and the bargain prices! Wearing 'Flower Bomb' now and it's delightful! and my package from fragrance direct - very speedy delivery as always, and also my packages from asos :o I'm all spent out now for the month!!

    Have a good day ladies, no doubt i've forgotten something that I'll be mentioning later :) x
  • I had a look at Perfume Parlour. Very tempting. I will try to stay strong. :A
