    Thanks. I think I've tried a couple of these type products but still haven't found one that moisturises at the same time!

    I found the Sanctuary one did :D

    Another UU today! Phil Smith Be Gorgeous Dry Clean Shampoo - a dry shampoo, I don't tend to like these as my hair gets very greasy so I prefer to wash daily, but CBA'd today so just chucked some of this in. WIBA? maybe, it was a freebie 3 years ago with a competition win.

    And a giveaway - Tresemme Instant Refresh Waterless Foam Shampoo - it so doesn't work in my hair so will donate to my mum to see if she likes it.

    Hello ladies :)

    Day off today, but working tomorrow. So today I treated myself to a lovely pampering bath in the morning, so it could be in peace without anybody knocking the door down :D

    Epilated (ow!) - but the pain sensation is definitely less than the first time, so I'm glad I perservered :)
    Scrubbed with Lush Fairy Tail scrub, lathered up with Lush Iced Wine shower gel, scrubbed it with a shower puff, then moisturised with S&G Daily Smooth (which I am very happy to use now I've decanted it into a pot:))

    I felt amazing afterwards :)

    Has anybody else noticed that when you actually use products, the level goes down?? :eek::eek::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I counted the nail varnishes as 6 INs, on the basis that when I use them up or bin them they're one each. Will post the colours/pic later. Also finally going through the stuff from the Vitality Show (yes, I know it was forever ago, but I'm ashamed to admit that after putting it all in one bag, it's been in said bag since then :o)

    Welcome back EH :)

    Welshgirl - you must try the Comfortor bubble bar, it's my HG one.

    I'd heard of Laura Geller before, but never really paid much attention until now. What's B&B please?

    Great news on the payouts Charlie :)

    Alanis - congratulations on finishing your report :T:T

    Another UU! Asda facewipes

    WIBA? Not on your nellie! Useless, they are. Not sure if it's just the Asda ones, but I find them all a bit useless. TBH. I think cleanser is better. And slightly less worse for the environment if you use muslin cloths as well. They could be useful after a night out of something, if you are very drunk and it's easier than proper cleanser, but I'm not a fan.

    Back to proper cleanser it is! :D

    P.S. Have bought some shampoo and conditioner bases to make my own with essential oils when I get to the end of my current ones! :D

    P.S. Have also realised that I have another UU in a Baptiste Dry Shampoo.

    WIBA? Yes. It's a product I only heard about because of this thread (BAD girls!), but it's really useful for those days you were too busy to quite get round to washing your hair. :)
