Thank you hon.
If anybody ever asks where I am, hubby's standard response is "Kicking @$$ and taking names somewhere I shouldn't wonder." :rotfl:

Congratulations! How exciting to have another "thread baby" so soon after SJP's little Princess arrived! :T
I usually put in either what it cost to buy, or (if I can't remember) the current RRP. If it's a sample/travel size, I put in £1. Some peeps put in £1 or £2 per item. It's up to you really.
Thanks roshy, must check it out sometime soon (ahem)!
Tut tut - you really mustn't, you know!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
Thanks for that, it did give good results the other night and I am going to use it tonight too.
Bronnie, I think you've convinced me to give the hemp hand stuff a go sometime, will try a tester instore maybe.
p.s. don't ANYONE go near the grabbit forum, this is an order!!!!
Tooooooooo late!Am now trying, no, struggling, to resist the temptation. Hopefully I will forget all about it overnight and by the time I remember it tomorrow it will be too late. Or something. Ahem.
Avon Senses Shower gel is spluttering! Fingers crossed it might die tomorrow, if not on Thursday, when I will go on to a BS one I think. Avon Cashmere Finish foundation also spluttering, but I have two of those to be going on with!

Hello all, and please add my congrats to Buttercup! Welcome to the world, little man!
I have a UU to report.... after exfoliating every night for a week, I have finally finished the Sanctuary Foaming Scrub! I have almost no skin left on my lower legs, but it's done! WIBA? Not until I've used up the other four loads of Sanctuary scrubs..... b*gger, so near and yet so far!don't know if I should buy another specific product for the decollete or just use a really good body and/or face cream.:undecided
Bev, unless they can give me a scientific explanation for why your chesticles area is more or less delicate than your face, I'd stick with one of your decent face creams! Our faces get more exposure (except for those first few years after my divorce, when the low-cut tops got a LOT of outings) so something that helps eye-wrinkles should help neck ones....?
Night all, sleep well!Some days, it's just not worth chewing through the leather straps....

Been a bit awol!
Congratulations to those have had little babba's, love it how you're already back to your bootsing
I have a confession to make, I was very naughty to day and have INs and in all honesty, no I did't need them but for change from a tenner for all of them seemed too good to leave... slap across the hands for me!
So I got 6x Boots wipes, 2x radox sea minerals shower gel, 1 palmolive deodrent, a sanctury pore refining toner ( actually I don't have any so I did need it) and a time delay readiance booster thingy.
I'm holding off from the bs deal but sooooo tempted.0 -
evening all and welcome all newbies :hello:
congratulations Buttercup on your lovely new arrival
hmmn, a lot of us seem to have wandered over to the grabbit board - think the naughty corner might be very crowded tomorrow
I have a couple of uu's to report:
morocannoil conditioner - I'm not that impressed with this stuff tbh. I use the moroccanoil treatment oil every day and absolutely love it but I don't think the conditioner has really done much, it certainly doesn't warrant paying the rrp for,
also uu a 15ml pot of lancome primordial moisturiser - I only started using this a couple of days ago and have now got a few blemishes - this could well be because I've had the cream for so long (it was a strange pale yellow colour?) so I ended up slathering it over my feet and legs just to get rid of it.
happy pampering, xx0 -
