One of the message board regulars on the BBC's Ouch! Disability interests website was awarded the MBE for voluntary services to people with disabilities. Her investiture was on Tuesday and whilst she was there at the Palace she investigated the loos. The Queen's household provided Elemis handwash and lotion for their guests... hope all is crystal clear now!
Thanks for that. I hope QVC don't get hold of this bit of info. It's bad enough that they have to cite celebrity endorsements for every product without Queenie being mentioned as well!
No UUs for me though I have a couple of products that are spluttering. No Ins either although I am watching my HG Decleor Clay Mask on the Bay at the moment.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!

Welcome to Lilly and all other newbies.
I have caved and got the free Barry M stuff today from Superdrug and also the bodyshop voucher and got a pot of seaweed moisturiser to try. I also got a bottle of the L'oreal eye makeup remover last night in Asda as it was only 2quid. I wanted to try both of these based on recommendations on here and got them for a bargain!
I will now go and sit on the naughty step for a time out................0 -
Welcome to all the newbies :wave:
I have another spluterer to report - Gum Hairspray 400mls. It has been open for a while now and I have been making an effort since having my hair chopped off so I have been using it every day for over 3 months. Really like this one and got it for a bargainous price from Home Bargains.No buying toiletries Graduated May 2017Decluttered 2016 2469 items, 2017 1580 items :j2018 3060 itemsSealed Pot Challenge No 0380 -
Has anyone used the Olay Aqua Physics Serum yet? It is on offer in Mr M's at half price. I was tempted as I have used up my flash beauty balm and my p & p serums. Decided to wait and see if any of you pampered ladies could/can recommend it?
Also one IN to report but I had to buy it out of necessity - H & B Arnica Cream. At work earlier in the week I accidently got hit in the face with a pool ball (ouch) and it has left me with a black eye and swollen area just under the eye. Every time my face moved it would nip. Headed off to Holland & Barrett to get some cream to help with this. It has helped and now only looks like I have badly applied black, blue, purple and yellow eye shadow!!!
OWCHIE !!!! (but how the heck do you accidentally get hit in the face with a pool ball????!!!!) hope you get bruiseless soon !!!Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup0 -
Can actually report my first UU and outs
Outs: 3 x 5ml Clarins samples in boxes popped into Valentines goodie bags for the girls coming over tonight.
UU: Johnsons 2 in 1 Shower Gel from my H&B stash - WIBA? Yes, it's lush - very creamy and leaves skin feeling very soft.0 -
3 OUTs today. Sold the Gok Bath Essence on Ebay, UU the Elle McP bodywash as bubble bath (but it didn't bubble:() and gave away a LipIce balm to DS as he's lost his. Again.
My Blistex Relief Cream is almost gone, as is my Sanctuary Toner.0 -
Hi
I have 4 UU to report.
Olay facial cleanser - WIBA? No, it left my face quite dry.
FCUK body lotion - WIBA yes, love the smell and leaves skin nice and smooth.
Head and shoulders shampoo - WIBA yes
Avon Skin so Soft body buffer - WIBA yes its like a body scrub, lovely on the skin but smelt a bit funny (had it for well over a year though!)0 -
Hi All,
Two more UU to report -the first is a bit of a blast from the past a VO5 Hot Oil tube WIBA? I've got another in the stash to use up so probably not. I can't remember when I brought it - but it's probably at least 4 years old! The other is a Ted Baker Body Scrub (a small one from a gift set) WIBA ? no I'm not overkeen on the scent and I prefer S&G. I'm slowly getting through my stash - I've used up 24 different bits and pieces this year! Mostly small size bits - now moving on to full sizes so my UU are slowing down bah humbug :doh: Still no ins to report, but I'm going to need a hair mask of some description soon - might nip to my local 99p shop during lunchtime on Monday.Always be yourself, unless you can be a Unicorn - then always be a Unicorn !

Hi everybody
Two small UU to report, 2 sachets of DHC acerola moisturiser. Had these for years and I think they might have gone off, they smelled a bit funny anyway! Have no idea what acerola is so perhaps they just smelled of that!
Was in town today but didn't buy any toiletries! Was in poundland but its quite a small one and only had boring toiletries so no temptations there. Went into BS and had a good look round at all the products everyone else recommends. Just for the future when I have finished the stash of course! Avoided B##ts and S##drug at all costs.
I have quite a few tubes lying around with just a couple of uses left so I am going to concentrate on them this week so I can move onto nice new products from the stash.
Hope everyone has a nice weekend!No more buying unnecessary toiletries 2018
35 UU / 13 unnecessary ins0
