    Just did my nails wih No7 Speed Dry in Coconut Ice, awful nail polish! Takes ages to dry. Obviously I won't be saying that at the Boots interview tomorrow! :rotfl:

    Good luck for tomorrow - show off that indepth B**ts product knowledge :rotfl:

    Ha, I've already bequeathed my stash to my bestie who is also on this thread but mainly a lurker :T

    I'm desperately trying to resist using the No. 7 voucher to get another 2 S&G righteous butters at half price. So I decided to count how many I already have - stopped at 15 without even opening the final drawer as I think I'd got the message....

    Trying to post a pic....can't remember how...pah, can't get pic to show, here's a link...

    I know what you mean - I spent mine yesterday on some muslin cloths grand total of 62p. Hoping it will stop me spending so much on cotton wool pads.

    Nice stash.

    Also PMON tonight. Now have on Nails Inc Jermyn St. I really should play about with flicker and get some pics on the go.

    Hopefully this is the link to my stash pics :o (Make up and nail varnishes not included:eek:)

    It has grown a little since these were taken last month, but nothing since Ash Wednesday as I've given up buying toiletries for lent :rotfl:
    Having said that, I'm getting withdrawal symptoms.......I may give in to temptation with some perfume samples :o

    Good luck for tomorrow, Vicster :)

    Had a lovely relaxing bath after a crazy day. Used Lush The Comforter (I love this - my HG bubble bar); reminds me of drinking Ribena when I was a kid for some reason, probably the smell. But never just Ribena, also of childhood. S&G body butter (white tube). No UUs, but feel super relaxed and smell nice :)

    Good luck thevicster, let us know how it goes *fingers crossed*

    Loved your stash pics juliebunny :)

    Kaz, my mum says nothing better than a hot flannel to cleanse. But when leave one, or muslin cloth in bathroom to dry, its disappeared totally when next go to use it!

    Just out of curiosity, does anyone here use those Tangle Teezer brushes? Since I grew my hair out it has a tendency to get really knotty and tangly, especially after blow drying or when I wake up in the morning, and my normal comb and brush don't do anything for it. I quite like the look of them but am a bit reluctant to pay £10 for a hairbrush if it's no good, so was wondering if anyone had used one before and if they were worth it...

    I really want to try this as i have long curly knotty hair, I might buy it , then I will let you know :):T

    I bought one for my 7 year old niece recently and both she and her mum think it makes brushing her long curly hair much easier and less painfull - although it has made her hair frizz up more
