Free Nails Inc NP with June In Style

Mind you - this might be area specific as there was a cleanser on some 'IN Styles' this month but I've yet to find one

Evening all

A very successful shower this evening with 2 full size UU!! :j
I've hardly had any UU in April so this is very exciting

Avon skin so soft body scrub - WNBA even if Avon hadn't stopped selling it about 5 years ago cos the scrubby bits were far too fine to be any use on my legs

Avon Liiv botanicals body lotion - WNBA because Avon stopped making this too and it was far too runny for my liking. I also have several years supply of body lotion to get through first.
I'm pleased to have finished a full size body lotion since I joined this challenge in January since it took me a whole year to use up my last body lotion :eek:

It just proves that if I actually use the products I buy then I will use them up eventually

Got another couple of mini size toiletries to try and finish before the end of April to up my total for the month!!

Just had a NPI in Asda - they had gift sets of NSpa Body Cream 2 x 200mls for £2.50 but I walked away :T caramel fudge and something else flavours

I may be popping into an Asda tomorrow and was planning on looking at NSpa stuff. You can get 10 Coinks points on some of their stuff at the mo. One of the bb's I currently have in use is NSpa Angel Cake and it is divine.

Wombling is when u pick up something discarded by someone else. The most common practice is picking up Tesco receipts and taking them into the shop to get the value added to your clubcard.

Glad it's not just me who does this in Tesco (and Sainsbury's) . I've never managed to womble a Boots voucher though!

Self-service tills - there's always a few if you keep a beady eye

A couple of mini IN's
Sanctuary Spa Body Butter 50ml
Sanctuary Spa Hand Cream 50ml
Imperial Leather Foam Burst 12 Wash Trial Size

I broke the Sanctuary gift box so have put these into my stash and the other bits on my swaps list. The Imperial Leather I found in my wardrobe ??? :eek:

ETA: Keep me away from the BS BOGOF & 30% combined offer :eek::eek::eek:

morning all,

two more uu's to declare:
pantene volume shampoo 500mls, will probably buy again at some point as it's relatively cheap and does the job
pantene smooth & sleek conditioner 75mls mini, again, this is cheap and cheerful and does a relatively good job so may well buy again sometime.

I'm now done to one shampoo in use and one in the stash so that's another section on my list conquered :j

Also one 'in' to confess -gave in to temptation and bought the Veet hair minimising lotion to see if it would help keep my yeti legs under control!

I have been disastrous at keeping up with the thread this month (I have about 19 pages to read - don't think I'll manage somehow!) so must try harder in May.

Hugs to all that need them, have a great day ladies, xx

Morning all

One UU and one OUT for me.

UU - Loreal Sublime Mousse Hair Dye in Pure Dark Brown - WIBA? Yep (if on offer!) lovely colour, lovely condition, and you get a good size conditioner bottle so have lots leftover It was a freebie hair dye too!

OUT - Boots Extract Mango Body Butter - WIBA? No. Got this as part of a set for Xmas. Love the smell, but it always had a weird plasticy texture and I've not used it for few weeks and went to use it this morning and it now feels like PlayDoh! so in the bin it goes.

I've got itchy armpits DH waxed them last night so perhaps it's something to do with that? It didn't hurt as much as last time getting them waxed this time. I think I'll probably stick with getting the pits waxed but will still shave legs and bits. Anything more than pits takes altogether too long!
I'm getting my spray tan done later, I'm very excited.
Catch you later peeps

Morning Ladies

A little uu, Avon anew clinical Luminosity pro brightening cream, this was a 7ml sample and I just used it on my neck, wiba? no, it was pleasant enough but I have a lot of other stuff to use first.

Also 2 ins, went to Ikea yesterday and got one of their massive shower scrubs, 500ml for £1.89 and a 250ml hand cream for the same price. Tried a dab of the hand cream, very nice, sinks in really quickly, unusual smell, can't really pin it down but it is not unpleasant.
