    I'll double check but I'm 99% sure :(

    Marta - . Mine came from a shop called Trade Secrets, you can get Moroccanoil in lots of hairdressers and it's also available online, amazon do it also:
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=moroccanoil&x=8&y=22

    it really is excellent stuff and a little goes a long way, hth, xx

    Oh! Thanks! I will have a look! £10-£20 is a bit on the expensive size for me atm BUT if it lasts ages then it might be ok.

    I am using atm Clinique "Take the day off" make up remover, it is amazing. It is silicone based and removes every bit without scrubbing, really good. Somebody was saying about wipes. I keep them even if they dry out, so I can used them instead of cotton pads with some liquid remover. Or clean around lol.

    Elizabeth Arden is giving a free sample of a recommended product if you have the "Skinscanner diagnosis" in participating shops. Not encouraging, a freebie is a freebie! :P

    I was going to get the Royal Jelly handwash/cream in the (shhhh!!!) Boots 75% sale (starts weds allegedly) but I'm guessing people wouldn't recommend it?

    I bought the handwash & cream to put in the present stash - I had somde other RJ products and didn;t mind them at all, it was just the body lotion that was nasty as it was too watery for me and felt cld to apply, IYKWIM?

    Rescue it from the bin and take it back to Lush! It's in date, has gone off, and I'm certain they will exchange it for you!

    The Trevor Sorbie Long Hair conditioner is STILL lingering - I thought I would use it up when I washed my hair this morning, but no such luck! However, that does mean that with luck that and the extremely old T&G shampo will both die on Thursday, meaning I can get both a new shampoo AND conditioner out together to use! :T

    I am being very restrained on the Avon stuff this time round - even where there have been options for me to do "creative ordering" to get BOGOF's on things, I'm giving the extra to the customer, not choosing something for myself. :A (Admittedly, it's a good incentive that there are LOADS of creative ordering options this time, many of which are meaning I earn a little extra!)

    Softlips Lip Balm - This was one of the older ones with the menthol type ingredients WIBA? hmmm - I like these, but they don't seem to do these menthol-ey ones any more sadly. I do still have a couple of others around the place I think, and in any case I have other lip balms as good so on reflection would say no.

    I used to use the softlip balms and also love the menthol tingly feeling. Sadly I cant find any balms like this now so have ended up using bliteze instead.
