I haven't used it yet, I prefer cashback and I don't think you can use both at the same time (as you have to click through from one site to another) Am I right?

I'm not sure, I didn't actually click on it. I use the cashback sites too (well, just Quidco actually) and I don't shop on line for most things, I still like to go and actually look at things

One UU this morning - a free sample sachet of Nivea Visage natural beauty radiance boosting daily scrub. Used it on my upper arms rather than my face, smelt really lovely, lathered well, just scrubby enough for face. Would buy this, but I've some Clinique to get through (will last a few months still I think) then I'd like to try the S&G one, so prob not in immediate future (unless I see it in £ shop :rotfl:)

A question please - I bought a BS coconut lip butter which I expected to love as it's my fave smell for er, smellies, and I don't! It leaves a horrible white film on your lips which looks awful, so, any reason why I can't use this as a foot or elbow cream?

Can anyone recomend a really good hand cream? Due to extreme steroid useage over the past 5 years and still needing to take them, my skin has become very thin. I have to do my bloods up to 6 times a day, so the tips of my fingers get very dry. I have tried several creams but nothing works well. I dont mind if its a dearer one as long as it works.

Thanks

I've used Aveda Hand Relief for a couple of years now and it's quite good. I think it's about £16 for a decent sized tube.

Not that I can think of. You might still find it leaves a greasy film on your skin, but it's worth trying. Can't do any harm... (Famous last words:eek:!). Good idea, actually

Off to put some bits on ebay this afternoon while football is on, i've a DKNY perfume that i've used a couple of times, but not keen on, is it worth putting it on ebay??? What about make up bags/boxes etc that i've got free???

Do it! Perfume always sells really well on eBay, even half-used (and I speak from personal experience ). List the GWPs as well, good luck!

I lurve this stuff, it's my absolute fave lip balm! I would swap you for something else if you like? I have loads of wee bits of makeup and smellies so if you tell me what you want I'll do my best to find it. Just an idea?

Absolutely, you would be surprised what sells. I once sold a chanel gift bag (that I got free in boots with the perfume) for a few quid - was totally surprised. So worth a shot!

I second the Body Shop Hemp handcream, it doesn't irritate my excema which is a miracle. Doesn't smell that good but does last.

Thanks Guys!

Where are the cheapest places for the L'Occitane shea butter or Aveida products?

Ooh, that might be lovely! I've used a bit though (maybe tried it 3 times just to be sure I didn't like it - is that still ok?) and I don't get cold sores or anything . I'm more of a smellies girl than make up really, so if you wanted to pick a little something from your stash that's a similar size or something (it's just the little pot one I've got, just to be clear, so you don't send something much heavier :eek: - need to be MSE and fair re the postage ) then yes, that would be great :T. How is this done then, do we just PM each other for addresses? Thank you!!

used up a bobbi brown serum - wiba - prolly not it was expensive and dont think it really worked (saying that had it for ages prob any effectiveness has worn away)
