Finally, a UU! :T

Cerruti Image Bath & Shower Gel: WIBA? Unlikely. I'm not a massaive fan of shower gels that come with sets as, realistically, I don't often use them. This one was so old that there was barely any fragrance left, so I just used it up ASAP. It was fine, but not a patch on my HG Original Source Mint and Tea Tree Shower Gel.

Am very near the end of my toner, so will be please to announce another UU soon!

UU: last night Burts Bees foot cream sample 15ml tube & this AM finished an old packet of BS vit E facial wipes
WIBA: BB:no - it was a horrid greasy gel. I prefer the creams. As for the wipes, only had them because they came free with an order. I don;t use them usually I wouldn;t bother buying any.

I'm on the naughty step with Kezza having cracked under the weight of pressure from Boots putting new Sanctuary stuff on the website! :eek:
I've ordered the set of drawers that was OOTW - I resisted it back then but there is a limit to the number of times I can say no to somethng this nice - one for me and one for my sister who needs cheering up because she got a paltry amount of toiletries for Christmas!

I priced up a similar set of cute cupcake drawers in WHSmith and they were soooo expensive so I reasoned that I may as well buy one which includes nice products....!

My resolve to organise is stronger than the need to cut back on toiletries - refer my previous post on the lousy week I'm having and thanks to you guys for your hugs and support. :beer:

I'm getting straight back on the wagon though...honest....oooh just gotta check the Boots sale threat whispers for the 75% off sale......:rotfl:

Hi everyone.
One UU - Radox hand wash- and now just opened a L'occitane Lavender Liquid soap -HG of handwash for me.

I've fallen off the wagon though.....:o:(
Needed some cleanser as getting to the end of my old Gatineau one - so thought as I am not buying the Decleor TSV set on the 23rd I will just order a cleanser off the L'occitane website.

BIG MISTAKE!!
Also ordered Petit travel essentials set with six 75ml shower gels in it for £17.00:

• 75ml Almond Shower Oil
• 75ml Cherry Blossom Bath & Shower Gel
• 75ml Shea Butter Verbena Shower Cream
• 75ml Calanques Shower Gel
• 75ml Lavender Bath & Shower Gel
• 75ml Verbena Summer Secret Shower Jelly.

and a half price discovery set £15:
50ml Repairing Shampoo
- 50ml Repairing Conditioner
- 50ml Organic Olive Radiance Cleansing Foam
- 50g Verbena Soap
- 15ml Olive Luminous Body Cream
- 35ml Relax Body Lotion
- 10ml Shea Butter Hand Cream
- in a L’OCCITANE Travel Bag.

and the Ultra Comforting Cleansing Milk 200ml that I originally wanted.

I was going to just log out until I realised I had free delivery as well!

So sorry girls, just found it all too hard to resist :wall: :(

Hi!!
So far, I am doing well. I still have loads of bits around and I am thinking of selling a few that are new and sealed (soaps from L'occitane and Berkeley square). The thing is that I have some perfumes I got as a present that I do not like Some people keep buying me the M&S perfume on offer for Christmas and it does not suit me at all. Thing is, I threw away the boxes, so I cannot sell them as BNiB on eBay. I will try to sell them but as they are fragile I am afraid the P&P is going to cost me more than whatever I get for them!! Idk what to do. Do charity shops accept these things? We live in a small flat and I need to unclutter all my stuff. I am surprised at how many things I have that I have not used for over half a year!

Morning all! thanks for the hints for saving, I'm hoping that it will pass very quickly! I've applied for new jobs and registered with agencies but not holding out much hope of being able to change in this climate!
Also need to start running, and think i'll be taking up with my old gaelic football club to help me with my endurance levels!! its not as butch as it sounds - honest!!

back on topic...
I used my Benefit - Gee that was quick cleanser/moisturiser the last couple of days and its burning when i apply my benefit cream after it so I think I may have to gift that to my sister and go back to the boards ever faithful L'oreal demaq make up remover!

Also My benefit do it daily moisturiser is spluttering so I am anticipating a UU in the next couple of days. Same goes for a Dove heat protection spray - I keep forgetting to use all of these hair treatments but am remembering to moisturise my body every morning in anticipation of summer!!!xx

Yes, the brilliant cat rescue charity I support does sell perfumes. Am I allowed to post the link? It's in Enfield.
