    All this:

    http://www.timetospa.co.uk/skincare/skincare-collections/Elemis-Sparkling-Beauty/

    I got mine for £24.xx though. :beer:

    I wouldn't use the marine cream during the day as I don't think it has SPF and I insist on SPF during the day. I like to use a really good night cream as the skin repairs itself more efficiently at night (so I'm told anyway).

    Thanks for the recommendation btw! :)

    Oooh that's a lovely kit. The only product I haven't tried out of it is the perfume. Been meaning to have a sniff of this but haven't seen it around. Wasn't impressed with Visible Brilliance when I used it as it had no effect on my skin at all. The Neck and Bust Cream I adore though I've only ever had it in these sized tubes and have one in my stash. I would consider purchasing a full size of it as I've used it after suntanning on holiday and it is a fabulous treatment. Enjoy!
    Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!

    Ooh your stuff looks so nice :D

    Just been to Morrisons, 2 INs - toothpaste which we needed as onto last tube - was half price 99p so MSE as well. Also bought an OS Lemon and Tea Tree shower gel, which I honestly thought we needed ;) and at 97p was a bargain, but in fact I have 3 full shower gels to go at first. Never mind, we seem to get through it pretty fast and I know now that we don't need any more :cool:

    I also forgot to say that IPMON tonight in Nails Inc Jermyn Street :)

    Will desperately need to turn my attention to my toenails tomorrow night as they are in a really bad way. Something about winter always makes my neglect my toe nails.

    Anyway night ladies.

    Me too. Shamefully, I am still wearing the lacquer I put on when I went away in October - OPI Mad as a Hatter which is really glittery and difficult to get off! Been meaning to do them honestly.

    I paint my finger nails a lot though - at the moment am wearing OPI Off With Her Red.

    Did the Boots sale not happen?????:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Thought we would have been buying by the bucket load.....

    No UU, No ins and a NSD..... I'm doing well.....

    Tara - GNR is half marathon, and i'd recommend mapmyrun too...

    JFS - love your footnote - its what i intend to do, although with all this pampering i'm hoping for a few lines less....

    I see the Nails Inc offer should have started at Boots today, buy 2 500ml Diet Cokes and get a 10ml polish free - will have to go to town at weekend and have a look - although I have loads in my stash....:p
    Challenges - repay all credit cards by end of 2015
