No Buying Toiletries in May Challenge

Sorry to hear about your friend juliebunny - how terrible to be so young and possibly have a stroke. hopefully she will be on the mend soon and make a good recovery.
Im a buzzagent too - but this is my first campaign - I never seem to be quick enough to get on them !!!!!
no UUs today - but as expected, flake away finally died yesterday. (as did my car today on my way home - but thats another !!!!! episode!!) WIBA?? no. Im not a fan of it as much as I thought - and Ive got an exfoliating glove so I will probably give that a proper go (might use up some of the never ending soap stash as well !!)
hugs for everyone - and welcome any newbies that I havent said hello to !! (and welcome back LPS !!)Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup0 -
An unfortunate, unexpected In yesterday. Got to the hotel last night and unpacked. Couldn't find my toothbrush. The hotel advertise that they'll provide you with complemetary products if you have forgotten anything (better, much less waste because, TBH, we'd all take everything left as grati in our rooms even if we didn't like it
). They gave me a toothbrush (not the best, a bit soft but I was grateful for the rescue) and in the packet was a teeny tiny tube of toothpaste. I don't know whether to just use it to get rid or to put it aside for travel. We are off camping in 5 weeks but I don't know if it's enough to see us all through a weekend.
Am absolutely hanging now so am off to bed to sleep like a log. Night night all.
PS, xoxo, hope everything is ok with PP? I think I've got the gist of what's going on but not who caused the issues. Hope all works out for them.Debt: 16/04/2007:TOTAL DEBT [strike]£92727.75[/strike] £49395.47:eek: :eek: :eek: £43332.28 repaid 100.77% of £43000 target.MFiT T2: Debt [STRIKE]£52856.59[/STRIKE] £6316.14 £46540.45 repaid 101.17% of £46000 target.2013 Target: completely clear my [STRIKE]£6316.14[/STRIKE] £0 mortgage debt. £6316.14 100% repaid.0 -

It's possibly too late to wish Charlie good luck and bon voyage, looks as if the latest Icelandic volcano won't cause problems.
Two UU's today. My lovely OS Lemon and Tea Tree shower gel. WIBA? Original Source is my HG, I have the men's orange and ginger hair/body wash that was too girly for my son less than half-used. I also have a whole Shea butter and honey. I am going to use up a couple of little bottles as well - one a Spa glitter bath/sg which is soooo not me. I loathe glitter in products. I'll give it a go though.
I also coloured my hair again, not that you would know it to look at it.
I used Perfect 10 Light Brown. My roots look a little lighter, the few greys are covered but the main body of hair is still resolutely brown-black from using Clairol Foam Medium Brown 2 months ago.
Who knows WHAT Clairol put in their Medium Brown to make the dye take so well? The first time I tried Perfect 10 I got a really good result with medium brown. So I'm stuck with brown - black for quite some time, until it grows out, I feel. C'est la vie.
Juliebunny, my very best wishes to your friend, wishing her a good and safe recovery.Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again...

Is that the N spa one? If so ur in luck;) Asda stock the Nspa range and you can buy a massive one for £4 sometimes cheaper or a set of a few for a fiver I think! It smells lovely but everytime I go in I look and escape, still got 1.5 bottles of snow fairy, 1 flying fox, a clean girls, simple and stupidly expensive Blue Lagoon shower/bath foams to go first...Debt free and busy treating myself:)
No more toiletries/make up until I've used what I've got stashed since Jan 2011, graduated October 2012. Restocked Dec 13..damn those sales0 -

Boots Trial Face Wash - WIBA? Maybe, if I knew what it was. Moved onto a Sanctuary Facial Wash.
Hope this doesn't sound an odd question but what does your Sanctuary Facial Wash smell like?! I've got one in use which smells very odd, difficult to describe it! I've put it down to the fact that I've had it 4 or 5 years!0 -
With the help of my OH we've uu an Estate Fiorentina soap. I started using it and then Mr FMG took over when his ran out. I've given him another soap to use (no idea what brand as it's been out of its box and sitting scenting a drawer). I've moved on to a small L'Aimant soap.
I have to confess to ordering 3 FCUK mini Whipped body Lotions and one DeadSea Source shower gel from the Boots site. I adore the FCUK body lotion and so I'm really chuffed to get it as a bargain buy. May has been a very naughty month for me.0 -

Here's hoping - we're off soon :j:j
juliebunny - keeping things crossed your friend is OK
opened the Miss Cole set yesterday - not impressed :mad: It's more bad design than anything - the tubes are all screwtop not fliptop and the contents are really runny - so you can't take off the top and put the tube down because all the contents run out (as I discovered :rotfl:) so you've got tube in one hand, shampoo etc in the other and you have to then try to put the lid back on with your magic third hand :rotfl: I tried to squirt it straight onto my head to keep a hand free but it just ran straight down my face and I ended up with a mouthful of bubbles:rotfl:
have a fab week ladies - 'see you' at the weekend :wave:0
