Yes but you need to be careful with it. Avoid touching it. Don't go walking anywhere if it's wet or windy and don't tie it back

Love the pic @thevicster

I'd love one of those Celia Britwell bags but it's for a UK charity so not stocked in Boots in Ireland. If anybody has a spare one I'd be happy to buy it:)

I could pick you one up if you like? Won't be near a Boots til next Tuesday though (am avoiding the naughty, tempting place!)

Don't know how to add a pdf to a pm

I can email it if anybody still needs it, just pm your email add.

No idea of my INs for Feb other than EL moisturiser, eyeliner & GWP. Honestly can't remember rest.

UUs (That I can remember):
2 x L'Occitane hand creams (possibly my HG hand cream)
Lush Honey Bee bath ballistic
Lush Ma Bar (Bubble bar)
Lush Candy Cane bubble bar
EL Ideallist Serum (HG) face serum

I think this is the list of freebies:

All about eyes eye cream Have lots of eye cream so won't bother with this
Take the day off eye make up remover Nope - used to be my HG until I discovered the L'oreal one!
7 day scrub cream Yes, my travel size one of these is on its last legs, and rather old, so will be searching for one of these
High impact mascara definitely not
Liquid facial soap Have a full siz\e one of these in use, and a travel size untouched, so no.
Moisture surge I love this, and find it extremely useful in the cold winds in the Hebrides so will be searching for one of these
Dramatically different moisturising lotion No, already have a full size in use and it's good, but I have pretty much no brand loyalty for moisturiser
Long last glosswear lip-gloss I'll probably try and find one of these as I do use them, and like them, a lot
Superbalm moisturising gloss This is the one I really want as these are such nice lip balms
High impact lip colour No, I rarely wear lipstick these days, just stick with gloss or a tinted balm.

hth, xx

Thanks for posting up the list!

Thanks for the reviews fixx and sawan, I've got to go into town today so think I will invest in one!

Evil Avon have just emailed a free delivery over £5 code - naughty Avon!

Ha! How do you think I feel - I get free delivery once every three weeks! :rotfl: AND get to know what all the offers are ahead of the rest of you, AND get the stuff at cheaper prices. Actually, now I come to think of it, it's amazing I manage to resist as miuch as I do! :rotfl:

ooh silly question. If I get my hair cut and styled tomorrow will it hold til tomorrow night? meant ot be going out and dont want to style my hair myself!

ETA: or help me learn how to use straighteners....I own that have never been used!

OK - Straighteners, easy as an easy thing. Switch the straighteners on to heat and get your kit sorted, so sectioning clips, a wide toothed comb, a round brush, and heat defence spray or similar product. Split your hair into sections and clip the top layers up on top of your head out of the way, then start straightening the lower layers first. Run the comb through first and then use the brush to pull the hair out nstraight before running the straighteners from root to tip in one steady movement. Repeat as needed before moving onto the next area of hair. You can gradually release hair from the clips to straighten, until the whole head is done, but don't be tempted to do too much at a time or it just won't straighten right. My straighteners are the wet-to-straight ones which I find excellent. Use the heat defence spray to dampen the hair before you start, and use more if you need to if it dries before you're done. Finish with a serum or shine mist. Simple!

:rotfl:EH - naughty, BAD Avon!

Don't suppose you know if the HydroJet water pik thing is on a good offer soon?

I resisted temptation this month and only bought replacements for UUs (deodorant, face scrub, mascara and lipstick). Good luck to everyone for next month, see you on the new thread. :A
