    Same here! Am not liking the Neal's Yard rose cleanser and I quite like the Essential Care coconut one but I've not found a replacement HG cleanser. I don't like that she sold off her company either./QUOTE]

    Have tried the Tesco hot cloth cleanser one, S&G (both very similar although Tesco one miles cheaper), Elemis Lavender cleanser, Pro Radiance Cleanser and Melting Gel Cleanser and Decleor foaming cleanser. The only one that I noticed any significant results with was the Elemis Lavender one (have another in stash) but then that seemed to only be when I used the toner with it and I don't like that! May try the A'Kin one next.
    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!

    nothing to do with toiletries.....just had an order of floristry supplies and had a major shock when I openned 1 box.I thought I had ordered 72 assorted pieces of oasis as that was what it showed on the site....instead I have 100 small cylinders:eek::eek::eek::eek: the web page shows a pic of oblongs and cylindrs and says both are shown but I did not notice the heading said cylinders,having said that the quantity was def stated as 72 so no idea why I have 100 at the rate I use them they will last forever:o:o:o
    just bought 12 red roses from tesco reduced to £1.75:)(well that uses up 1 cylinder!
  • i have a IN but i did not pay for it it came in the post no idea where it came from its only a sample of Olay Regenerist flawless skin cream 7ml. something else to add to the list.

    Two ins today - an olay regenerist moisture thingy - but only tiny,so wont last all that long, and a HUGE tub of flake away (which I swapped with sofababe for my almost full Clean on Me) so no money changing hands. and a fairly bit OUT as well - do I get to avoid the naughty step?? (please say yes - Im meeting my friend in a minte to go and see Gnomeo and Juliet !!!)

    I got an Olay sample today too! But I'm looking at it as "research" rather than an "in" as i didnt buy it :D

  • i have just had a look at what samples i have and i have got 3 different olay ones (6 in total)and i think there might be one in the superdrug parcel im waiting for. i have got a funny feeling that olay makes my skin itch, i will try them when i have finished my day face cream near the end of the week and report back.

    I think it's my mum's cousin who lives in Bodmin, and I think her name is Pat Munn, she writes books about Bodmin, and I enjoyed our visit to the old jail when we found out about Charlotte Dymund.

    I know Pat Munn! Well my Mum does! Actually I think she may have taught/had something to do with a school I went to for a few months. Small world!

    One in to report - the olay skin cream, doen't count though as I didn't pay for it :D
