I really don't need to buy any more eyeshadows/liners etc for several years - I already have everything I need!

My UB Naked came today and i'm thrilled to bits with it, i've never spent this much on make up before..... Although I dont think i'll ever need to buy another eyeshadow

I really need to do some decluttering. I've loads of stuff to put on ebay, but really cant motivate myself to list it all.... its takes forever and last few times i've not charged enough for postage... :mad:

I need to confess my sins.....
I bought a Gok set in the 75% sale, with the intention of giving it to my friend for her 30th birthday on Thursday, however i've not heard anything from her, she's not asked about bubs at all (even though we've both been on FB at the same time) therefore i'm counting it as an in..... it smells blooming lovely too :rotfl::rotfl:

Oh and face serums, do we put these on first, before moisturiser?? So its serum, eye cream, mosturiser and make up????

Congratulations Flirtini - bet you're so happy

Don't worry - we are unshockable here!

really????????????

so my OH gone to work and i have sneaked out of the millions of carriers in my wardrobe the f word (fragrances to any who don't know me yet) and put them all together in a box, wait for it there are ........99 :eek:

plus 15 minis

plus 14 gift sets

plus about 12 each of the mini sets still to come from online order

don't think i have even got that many friends or rels...........to give them to and haven't opened any for myself yet!
actually i only have 2 friends, my mum and my sister....:rotfl:lol!

I think I am in shock -impressive!
I would seriously consider taking some back or ebaying some and putting the money towards a special treat for yourself. x

I'm thinking Practice Manager!

erm nope.......:rotfl:

ps.
have been reviewing my orders from lloyds (6 orders 2 cancelled, one by them one by me after pang of guilt) total spend is about £500 and can pick out many things i have ordered in the excitement of it all which will definitely be going back.Just waiting for 3 of the orders to arrive and then will sort them out. Just hope they don't arrive when my husband's hoem!

I am not really an ebay person and probably will never sell on ebay (house full of stuff i am always thinking of putting stuff on ebay but never do). Like the idea of some sort of garage or car boot sale, problem is every time i go to our local car boot always bump into loads of my patients who always stop me for medical advice......

oops :eek:just given my job away

I'm in this month too.

I'm stuck at home for the next couple of days- on friday I was taken into hospital with awful abdominal pains and on sunday i had a huge ovarian cyst removed. Back home today and i'm in agony

Hi to all the newbies!

Ohh Mingle I hope its tonnes better now, hope everyone is really cheering you up and looking after

thank you every one about my (ex) work colleagues, you're all so lovely :A I thought it was just me being uppity and overly sensitive, and I know that there are bigger problems out there faced by people, but it was just niggly. They phoned me up during the week to see if I fancied doing a couple of days a month freelance for them to get them out of the proverbial s*** but I turned them down - I didn't really feel like helping them out!!

I went down to a couple of agencies today to register and have appointments at some others tomorrow so fingers crossed something will come up soon.

Sorry I'm trying to catch up on c.2 pages :eek: so have forgotten who was talking about Tayto's and Cadbury's in Ireland - they are definitely tastier than our equivalent!! But weirdly, Taytos in NI and ROI are made in different factories and I think they taste different!! lol. But saw something yesterday on the independant.ie that 'football special' (a drink I get in my mum's native Donegal) is now going nationwide - I'll be the first one in the newsagents in Dublin in April searching for it!

Back on topic...

Welcome to all newbies :hello: you'll love this thread!

You can see why I have to use hand cream!! It's the first time I've used this colour (Nails Inc. Montpelier Square) but I have to say I really love it.

I don't normally wear metallic colours (shimmery yes), so it is quite 'blingy' but in a good way I hope

Love, love LOVE this colour, it's divine!!!!

On the naughty step I go, I bought a new mascara today as my one has gone walkies (back up to one of my sisters at uni I think!!!) and it was £10.99 or if I spent £15 I would get the goodie bag at Max Factor, so I got a Pan Stick BUT I thought it would be handy for when I go travelling so it's packed off into the stash

back to reading through the posts, no doubt I'll comment again before the nights through xxx

This is going to be my naughty month as it was my birthday yesterday, so have to go to Bodyshop and get my gifts and spend 2 of the Groupon vouchers.

Hope you had a lovely birthday - with lots of :bdaycake:

Anyway, on a happy note - I HAVE to get my stash down to a more reasonable size... because my lovely lovely boyfriend has asked me to move in with him! :j:D:j:beer: It won't happen for a few months as he's Australian and we're waiting for his work to sort out his new work visa (so being sensible and waiting in case he gets deported!!) But I think he might die of shock being surrounded by quite so many girly toiletries when we have our own place!

So, I think that's my challenge and aim - to declutter by the summer (and of course not by anything unneccesary and new as well!)

:j Thats definately a good incentive to downsize and declutter

I have finally read through all the posts, so many!

So I have about four ins being in the shape of the freebies from Clinique - I must say I am very impressed with the moisture surge, so much so that I am now very keen to finish my no 7 day cream so that I can use it daily! Aside that I have not bought anything else and have been to boots twice now without purchasing any toiletries... so I may now be a reformed character - lol its only been seven days!!

Hope those feeling ill, feel better soon and the photo of the foal is lovely and roll on the weekend! x
