No Buying Toiletries in February Challenge

Fiasco55

Forgot to say I had another UU - Origins Ginger Souffle. WIBA? No, too overpowering and left my skin feeling sticky.

Another £2 in the pot.

Hi newbies. Join up, you'll love it here. Just stay away from Tara, she's a bad influence . I'm an :A and never buy anything (Don't tell them, you lot! I can hear you all sniggering from the naughty step/ escalator!).

Psssst, Tara..... here's my wallpaper http://www.diy.com/diy/jsp/bq/nav.jsp?action=detail&fh_secondid=10928206&fh_view_size=150&fh_sort_order=1&fh_sort_by=_price_rrp_min&fh_location=%2f%2fcatal!!!1%2fen_GB&fh_search=arthouse&fh_eds=%c3%9f&fh_refview=search&isSearch=true ooh, long linky, sorry . Right, I'll continue to catch up.

Oh Rosemary, you didn't get the Olay because I emailed them and told them you had too much stuff :rotfl:. *Kidding*. Maybe it's on it's way?

If people are looking at places to donate this scheme called Give and Makeup looks good - and if you send it off by the end of the month it's free post - ideal if you don't know where to donate to locally.

This link takes you to a blog with the details: http://www.lipglossiping.com/2011/02/give-and-makeup-now-is-the-time-to-donate/

and here is the blog of the organisation - http://www.giveandmakeup.com/

I can't vouch for it in any way but if you have lots of things you're looking to rehome in this way it might be worth investigating so thought it was worth sharing.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for posting this. This is EXACTLY the sort of venture that we should be supporting. I'm sure I can spare some bits and pieces from my stash, even though I'm not buying anything. I'm sat looking at a shoebox that will be perfect for posting things off in. Thank goodness I hadn't de-cluttered it.

I have had to cut open my tube of Elle MacPherson Nourishing Foot Butter and will finish it off tomorrow. I will then only be left with one pot of foot lotion but it's one that I prefer to use in the summer as it's cooling and refreshing. I have therefore decided to use body butters on my feet in the meantime.

Correction! Just found a Boots Cracked Heel Balm in a drawer. I don't think there's that much lotion left in it but I feel as though I must declare it! It also reminded me that I've got some Scholl Intensive Night Treatment in my bedside drawer.

quick question eeryone - as I know someone here will know the answer.

I have been using a BS toner and not really loving it - is it true that you can take it back? and are the generally OK about it>?

went in the pound shop today, why did i spend ages looking at shampoo's and conditioners? I've loads of them in my boxes!!!! Thankfully i walked away. I did get two talc's though so i don't to pay supermarket or high street prices.

Was having a thing today and the only things i think i need from Boots (but not quite yet) is Sactuary Salt Scrub which is my HG product. Trouble is it's so expensive, i was thinking i'll have to find the cheapest way of buying it so that when an offer comes up i know it's a good offer. I always seem to be too scared to try the glitches (if there are ever any) and am usually too slow anyway

I know what you mean about the glitches, if i try them I'm almost hyperventilating at the till.

Hi Tara, hope you had a nice holiday. I woke up thinking, Ooh, I forgot to say hello to Tara, how rude of me!
I'll try to get pics up after it's done. Managed to get the back wall painted white today (3 coats- gah!) and as I had the roller all white and the tray full of paint and a white brush, I went and painted the downstairs loo while I was waiting for the wall to dry off enough for me to do yet ANOTHER coat. So I spent a good 4 hours doing that. It will need further cutting in tomorrow if it's dry enough (don't think it will be actually as I've pulled the dehumidifier into the dining room for tonight.
Tomorrow I also need to get the first coat of colour onto the dining room walls (3 of) and all the cutting in done. DH will try to paint the coving when he gets home. No way am I painting coving after the walls are done, I'll wreck the walls. Hopefully we'll be at wallpapering stage by Friday night. IF we are, we'll get the kids sorted and into bed and just chuck it up. We're very quick at wallpapering.
I meant how much was the actual rollerball jobby sorry .

EH (or anyone else who knows...) a friend at work says she uses the Avon room fragrance as a reed diffuser. I managed to pick up some reeds the other day and wondered if you could give me a link to the fragrances?
Anyone else who knows, can you get the top off a spray atomiser perfume thingy with pliers? I have that rose thing from M&S. Not my fragrance really but would be fine as a room scent. The bottle would be good too if I can get the labels off as it's little and square and quite funky in an unobtrusive way.
Worked out that we've made almost enough from our ebay sales to pay for the dining room decoration, my new bedding which DH hates and I love http://www.matalan.co.uk/pws/ProductDetails.ice?ProductID=31364&redirect=true , the 4 new pillowcases and the 8 new pillows. We'll be about £25 short. Will total it all up when the sales are through and everything's been posted.
Had a lovely pampering bath this evening. Scrubbed so much I tingled, moisturised and was going to PYNM. Only I'm sick of painting so I didn't :rotfl:.

Right. Sorry for the epic, mainly off topic, post. I shall tootle off and catch up .

Oooohhh you're bedding is lovely, very english country cottage.

Thanks for the Benefit tips ladies, think I will try out the blushers I already have in the Powder TIme collection first then decide! Or I could just buy some Elasticizer or UG instead:D What's the Primark highlighter called Roshy? I don't get chance to go to Primark very often, but I do have a gift card!

It's in the same type of packaging as the Benefit one (Girl meets pearl etc)

and the following blusher/bronzer is good for the price - when I fly to ireland (and take advantage of the hand luggage only !) I always stop off in Penney's/Primark to get some of this, and its often reduced to 50cent!
