One UU so far today:

Boots The Spa Hand and Foot Conditioner: WIBA? I laughed that it was called 'conditioner' when I first opened it but it does have a sort of conditioning feel to it. I'm not keen on the smell so have only been using it on my feet. No - wouldn't buy myself but would use again if I got it as a gift.

I scooped out all the cream left in the two GWP size No7 pots I'm using for my feet and put them in one pot - it took me forever! They are definately designed just to get a fingerful out of :rotfl: I ended up using the lever on my nail clippers as a scoop

I tidied up my chesterdrawer today and counted the toiletries that has not been opened yet.

8 x body lotions
1 x energising cleansing bar
1 x tan activator serum
3 x hand creams

1 x Decleor Neroli serum
2 x bath oil
1 x advanced night repair
1 x tooth paste
1 x deodorant
1 x toning gel
2 x mascaras
3 x cleansers
1 x toner

I am definetely not buying any more body lotions until they are all used up.

Used up Lush Bohemian soap today, didn't like it so wont buy soap from Lush again.

Have a lovely Easter everyone.

An IN today....but a freebie, well a gift really. I've just been to work and one of my clients has had a birthday (she's 81) and had been given a hand care set from Debenhams and says she'll never use it so gave it to me:T Its got 2 handcreams, Senorita Margarita and Tangerine Dream, 2 pretty spotted nail files, some cuticle sticks and a pair of cotton gloves. How cool is that? I also saw in her bathroom that she's acquired a 500ml bottle of Clean, Girls. So S&G is loved by all ages.

Alanis, I'll be keeping my eyes open for your thoughts on the Veet lotion. I'll deffo be getting some if it does make a difference.

Afternoon all (there's nothing good about it). I've only come on here for a whinge because if I moaned on FB people IRL might think I'm deranged.
I woke up at 4 and judging by the state of the bedding, I've not had a particularly restful sleep. I'm absolutely blimmin starving when I wake so I come down. DH has left his laptop in the middle of the front room floor open and on with a note on top saying "We've gone to Watchet" the computer is on the page of where they've gone. House is a mess. Now is it wrong that this has put me in a foul mood? Well, a grump anyway. I don't really care where they've gone actually, I would much rather not get up to find a note saying "Look what you're missing out on!".
See, to me going to Watchet is like a proper family day out and I would never do something like that without him being able to come. He could have taken a day off this week and we could have gone as a family but no, I expect he's gone with his fricking family. I suspect I may be slightly over reacting but I just feel crap now.
Oh and I FINALLY got my off duty for MAY last night. I am working every blasted bank holiday in May. Not all of it granted but every single one. Even the Sunday Monday night of the first May weekend when I'm actually supposed to be on AL. I am so not happy. I got the sister to take me off the Sunday because they'd not given me my AL shift. I'm going to have a word with the matron because it's not fair. My rota for May is rubbish.
Anyhoo, totally OT self indulgant rant. Happy weekend all.

Awww Kaz {{{{HUGS}}}}

Put your feet up hun - don't do any housework (except to make a space for you to sit ) and relax!

Then when they get back say 'thanks for the lovely peaceful day, I'm relaxed and recouperated and refreshed for work - you'll do a bit of tidying while I'm there won't you'

Had a busy day so far...

Gave myself a mini facial this morning using Clinique facial scrub then followed by a Molton Brown face mask. My skin has been in very good condition of late with a lot less spots. Think my skin care routine and products are now paying off.

Also went out for a look about the shops in West End and managed not to spend anything at all.

I have a small UU today. Clinique Turnaround Concentrate 7mls that I got in a set when I was last in the states. WNBA as I didn't feel it made any difference. Gonna stick with the P & P serum or flash beauty balm (or maybe that Aldi beauty serum :whistle:).

I have also had a bit of a reorganisiation and have been able to move some new products into my en-suite. I am now starting to see some space in my toiletry trolley and vanity cases that have been packed for years. :j Happy Days!!

I have looked out my Reimans P20 sunscreen and given it a pride of place in my toiletry door hanger thingy. Ready and waiting for action...long may the sunshine continue. I also have only 1 day cream with an SPF in it left in the stash - Elemis Day Cream which I have not used yet. I have left this out to change over from my Clinique DD. I did want to buy the Clinique City Block which I had tried on holiday last year and loved but feel I should give the Elemis a go first. Anyone tried the Elemis one?

Sofababe -
that walmart website is horrifyingly addictive - I have never seen such an enhanced pair of back boobs before:rotfl::rotfl:

Oh Kaz - thats a bit !!!!! - but hurrah - didnt realise you were down this way!! ( if home is where the heart is - then home for me is most definately Wellington/Wiveliscombe direction - that counts you in too!!!)

Kaz, sorry to hear it's all being chucked at you at the moment.
My OH had just been given his time sheet to the thursday after the first May bank holiday, today is the only bank holiday he's been given off, and he's working sat and sun this week as well. Really sucks! I get made to take the bank holidays so it feels like we rarely get time off together.

no UU for me, but then i feel that i've slipped on the moisturising front so that's my own fault.
