    Finally a UU!

    BS spiced vanilla scrub - WNBA because I wasn't keen on the smell despite being a vanilla addict, it was too runny and wasn't scrub-y enough :rotfl:

    I'm now sparkling like a glitter ball thanks to a gok body butter... :cool: Hmmm!

    A small UU for me - the conditioner sachet from the Garnier hair dye I used last week. Got 4 applications out of it so that's pretty good!

    Have a lovely time Charlie and fingers crossed your flight's on time.

    I also got the freebie face wipes too and found them to be ok for me and my oily skin :)

    No more UU's today but my Fake Bake Body Scrub can now be classed as a splutterer.

  • Eek, haven't been on here for ages! I have so many INs - been really bad this month! First 3 for 2 Soap & Glory at Boots and now 2 orders from The Body Shop. I'll list them all when I do my updated stash list next month.

    Hope you have a great holiday Charlie, and the ash cloud doesn't stop you getting away!

    Thanks for this link. I'm using the Yes to Carrots hand cream at the moment and loving it so am thinking of trying another Yes range for my facial cleanser though I'm not ready to buy one yet!!

    I use the Yes to Carrots make up remover, its a cream one rather than a liquid (iykwim) so doesn't dry my skin, bit pricey though, think i'll try the L'Oreal one you all seem to like before i buy another though!!!

    I'm not sure who asked about the travel bottles, but saw some in a clear pouch in Poundland last week, three 75ml bottles and a small pot.... There is also a set on BS......

    Two UU's - 75ml Sanctuary Body Scrub, which i found in mt gym bag... WBA but got loads to get through :p
    Botanics Anti Aging Face Cream - WBA but one more in my stash that i opened this morning, but think i might try some other cream as i've used Botanics for almost 10 years :eek::eek:

    Should we be using products from the same ranges for our daily routines, do they work better this way? Or is it ok to mix & match?

    Have an in (well 3 actually) and a uu which kind of counteract each other. Thanks to whoever it was (sorry I can't remember who) who suggested buying some tea tree oil to add to my shampoo as I have bought some and been using it for a week and I think it has started taking effect already. I was a bit naughty as I ended up buying it in Boots on the 342 but it actually worked out cheaper ml for ml against the one in Superdrug. Because I bought this instead of some anti dandruff shampoo I have now finished off my shampoo
