    Hehe. Yaaaay! I must admit that when I saw my list I wondered how I have the room for it all!

    I have a big draw full and because I have so many it means I spend ages finding things. :o

    I'm in the process of trying to grow my nails. I've had a really bad nail biting habit since I was a child.:o

    Hey all

    I'm back from my work trip, sadly the weather cut short our trip so we came back this morning rather than this evening. So I only had one shower and therefore didn't use up as much of sachets as hoped!

    But UU's this week are:

    - 1 x Tresemme Moisturising Shampoo and Conditioner sachet
    - 1 x Dermalogica Moisturising Serum sachet
    - 1 x Neutrogena Pink Grapefruit Facewash sachet
    - 1 x small hotel hand soap
    - 1 x Spa Planet Face Mask sachet

    Just had a lovely long shower at home where I used body scrub and intensive hair conditioner :) and then put on the face mask.

    Hope you've all had good weeks!

    To whoever said don't go down the nv to match outifts route, I already have black so I'd need one dark purple and one dark blue :p

    Talking of nv, I had an NPI as I saw a larrvley cadbury purple nv in Boots but I shall wait til I have my own money to spend...It was only £2 but still..

    Afternoon ladies :D

    I finally made it to see the nurse today and gave my armful of blood - back again in a month :( Wandered into town to see if I could use the New Look vouchers (I did - sort of - didn't quite get the right sizes but hey ho :rotfl:) and popped into SD. Finally found some of the 19p toiletries and picked up a SD Spa Body Polish - I don't have any in so am OK with that spend :rotfl:

    Got a free Nails Inc NV from the malibu pop up tent by the bullring which will go away for DD - gonna go back and try to get a different colour tomorrow :p and the free cocktails were nice too :rotfl:

    Little Dog is back at the vets tomorrow :( and I really must do a supermarket shop - my cupboards are starting to look like Old Mother Hubbards :rotfl::rotfl:

    Have a great day all :cool:
  • One thing I've realized today is that when you have no more room to store/put toiletries if you know you have a problem, lol.

    *sneaks in*

    Erm, hello ladies :)

    I'm in

    again please :P

    Whew, it's been a while! Sorry for disappearing, I've been quite busy for a while. Work got very manic, the social life got a little busy too (I MUST cut down on the alcohol intake!) and I've had an 8 day holiday in the caribbean, and 2 weeks off for Glastonbury, trip to parents, and a couple of other gigs and trips.

    I was trying to keep up with reading some of the threads but have fallen quite behind with most of the recent ones. I am up to date with July though :p

    Anyway, I have been continuing to use things up, and haven't bought too much. I'm a long way from graduating yet though, as I still have a stash, and still get very tempted, boo. The only thing keeping me on track is honestly living outside the UK! I actually tried to buy the Nails Inc set that was on offer for £20 a few days ago, as well as the gold crackle (I waaaaaant!) and another colour from their website, but they only ship to the UK and Ireland, boo! Which is good as I really didn't need the nail polishes :)

    I have no idea what I have actually used/bought since I last checked in, but I'll try to go over a few bits:



    In
    • Babyliss spinning hotbrush - I read about it here, it's amazing, and every time i use it poeple ask if I've had my hair done. I'm in love! Best hair I've ever had.
    • New perfume! I don't have a stash of perfume, just a couple of small sample ones, and 2 large bottles of my summer/light favourite (which is now dicontinued :() so i went looking for a new evening one after all the prefum discussions on here. I must have tried close to 100, and spent a couple of months, and then finally found the perfect one, recommended by an airport assistant lady - Gaultier Madame (the black one). It's amazing for me, and was worth the frustration of trying loads that really didn't suit me (my skin changes perfume a LOT).
    • Sun lotion!
    • Sanctuary gift set - I'm using the contents up quite quickly to get them out of the way. I actually had no body scrub or lotion/butter open, so these were opened stright away!
    • Some new false eyelashes - I've got really into these, at least the lighter ones that look quite natural, and used a couple of sets until they died, so needed some replacements.
    Out
    • Too Faced lash injection mascara. I read some people here saying it was awful, and remembered I had one, so tried it, and it really is bad! It really stung. So that was binned.
    • Quite a few BS butters - 4 small and 2 large. I've been in the sun a lot, so lots of moisturinng was needed after :D WIBA? Oh yes, I have loads.
    • Small sacntuary butter - WIBA? lovely, but I prefer the BS butters
    • a couple of small facial creams. Nothing special to recommend.
    • Random hair colours/highlighting kits - need to keep up the maintenance :p
    In other news, I just found out that my HG shampoo and conditioner have been discontinued! The range has been revamped (Tigi Bed Head Dumb Blonde) - I'm hoping that if I check the ingredients the new versions won't be too different, but I haven't had time to look yet :( I have none in stock either, and can't find anywhere selling the old version in large sizes (conditioner specifically).

    Anyway, hi to everyone, especially the newbies (someone else in Switzerland?! Woohoo!) and dodgy hugs to all as well :grouphug::rotfl:

    I missed all you ladies!

    One UU to report today - Superdrug Indulge Shower Creme.

    WIBA? - No, I don't think so. It smelt lovely and all that but it really didn't lather up and it didn't make my skin feel spectacular or anything.
