    I can't wax myself because I'm too much of a chicken to cause myself pain :rotfl:so I make DH do my pits :o. There's love for you ;).

    Hubby helps with my bikini line, with those bits where you need at least three hands, telescopic arms, eyes that come out on stalks so you can see round corners, and for your elbow to bend the other way so you can pull the wax off in the right direction. :rotfl:

    A nazi style interrogation lamp would come in handy too.

    I cannot do my underarms though. Far too scared! :eek::D

    I might get some photos done at the weekend though... :o:D

    Not of my armpits she edits hastily!

    Oops, just spotted this on Grabbit:


    "The Boots magazine free to Ad card holders has a 25% off Champneys coupon in it. valid from 04/05."

    I was hoping there would be such an offer, just hope you can use it in conjunction with the gwp offer.

    A couple of IN's but totally worth it.

    Firstly, that "Gym'll fix it" Miss Cole set- needed a reasonable sized gym bag for just my toiletries and some towels and this is just the right size. It cost £5 but that's what I was looking to spend for just the bag anyway :)

    Secondly, The Body Shop mascara- I needed a new one for when my avon one runs out, so that'll be in use in no time at all. Then I also ordered the £10 moringa gift set on the buy one get one half price. The whole order came to £7.40 and the mascara was £7 should have been £10, so 40p for the moringa set that might be a gift yet. I'd say that was a bargain and justifiable!

    :D

    Hello everyone

    Haven't turned the computer on for the last two days so have been catching up today, some epic stash lists. Will try to post mine at some point, might be next week now. Am starting decorating DD's bedroom tomorrow and then will be making her new curtains so a busy week. No in's or uu's for May so far but a few splutterers on the go.

    Urgh! I hate my current shampoo!! Alberto Balsam Mandarin Shampoo and Conditioner. The smell reminds me of cough mixture :(

    Is it bad that I use more than I need too, to use it up? It really smells horrible! Don't know what I was thinking when I brought it :(

    absinthe fairy- very tempted by the S&G antibacterial hand gel, I love the stuff (I hate using public toilets!) and with the S&G scent sounds great :) but...I still have a large tesco aloe vera one and mini to finish (annoying to use because it's so runny) so will resist...:A:T

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    Oooh Kaz I have to take my hat off to you for being so brave as I am not going to attempt to wax the armpits again!

    UU Trevor Sorbie hair serum - WIBA no as I have another serum in the stash and a small moroccan oil to get through!

    Has anyone here tried hair powder? I have been reading some reviews but cant decide if its worth trying or not as I have such fine hair and would love to give it some ooomphh!

    funny you should say that i've just bought their eye roll on which is suposed to help with puffy eyes and black circles.

    Me too :D
    Bought it on Saturday & think it was about £3.50. Can't say I noticed a difference when applying it to only one eye to test it though :p
    I bought a powder compact while i was there too but I picked the wrong colour :(

    And chocolate. Straccliata(?) flavour. It's roasted cocoa nibs in white choc with dark choc on the bottom. Tastes like cookies & cream and it's delicious. I'll be back for more when I get chance :D

    Brought some xmas toiletries back from visiting my dad. I meant to sort everything out but I was busy with other things. Black cherry shower gel, puff & soap are now in my to use pile. They smell really tasty but I know better than to eat them unlike some of you :p

    Hello ladies,

    Can I join please? :j

    I've been lurking since February and feel like I know you all already! I decided to take the plunge and join as I really need to try harder - my INs are still exceeding my OUTs.

    A little word about myself: I live in Switzerland like fellow member Fixx and toiletries like most things here are pretty expensive. I buy a lot of items in Germany as I live near the border and when I'm back in England I tend to go mad. Hence why I end up with a lot of INs at once.

    I had a NPI with a bottle of perfume in the local supermarket today, but thought it wouldn't be cool to have to confess as soon as I've joined, so put it back :A

    Stash list to follow.....
