A UU SD coconut and shea butter body polish. Not really scrubby enough for me. I really want to try Lush Ocean salt, anyone tried it? I really like very scrubby salts/scrubs.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 -

Hello everyone,
Hope everyone's had a good day.
One UU Boots Essentials Cucumber wipes. WIBA? I have another 5 packets! They are good and yes I would at a good price. (another glitch!)
Two INs though,
went to SD for some hayfever tablets for OH..and found a Herbal Essences Beautiful Ends 400ml conditioner for 75p! It was marked as damaged, has a crack at the bottom, but as far as I can tell it's perfectly usable! A bargain as I always buy HE.
Also a Radox Wellbeing Spa Care bath soak for 99p. Always buy this when I see it for 99p or £1...I love, love, love the scent of this!! My HG bubble bath. Nearly finished my current one.
However, I may have to buy a deodorant as the Nivea one isn't working in this heat!!
That really must be it for this month!0 -
a few UU for me: sure Crystal deodrant, WNBA prefer Dove. Had this one donkeys years and it was a baby one, so glad it's gone now.
Soft and Gentle deodrant see above., box of cotton buds, use these daily but don't need to buymore for a few years - two years ago OH decided to buy me 5 YES 5 tubs for my christmas pressy
2 GA - hemp hand cream, much as it doesn't irritate my skin i just couldn't put up with the smell any longer so gave it to my friend.
N07 Hand and Nail treatment given to same friend as it made my skin crawl, but that was the excema.
Started my Sanctuary hand cream and i love it. Smells lovely doesn't sit on my skin like grease and moisturises really well. Could become a HG very quickly but not sure how long i've had this - probably 4 years or so but it's still fine.
2 Ins from Wilko's on sunday - Johnsons baby talc 500g for 98p each - bargain0 -

Morning all!
So I've had a massive trawl through my bathroom and all unopened stuff that I know I'm not likely to use has made it's way onto ebay :-) Some even has bids already, am very excited!:j
Now I need some advice from the ebay veterans amongst us! I have a few items that didn't come as a set, but could be that way - i.e. I have S&G hand cream, S&G heel genius and an unopened pair of S&G gloves - would it be best to list these on ebay separately (and perhaps put on each item that the others are also available if you want to bid on those) or to list them together as a set? Same with a Lancome cleanser and toner - list separately or together - what do you think would be best?
I now have 2 weeks to D-day - my boyfriend has given notice on his flat and will be moving into my tiny, tiny studio at the end of the month. We then have 2 weeks of crampedness before going to Australia for 3 weeks (my first meeting with his parents... eeek!!!!) and then as soon as we get back in September, assuming he actually got his visa sorted and is allowed back into the country, we'll be flat hunting!!!
So I have 2 weeks of urgently trying to clear all the rubbish and unwanted items from my room - I think ebay is about to become my best friend!!
On the UU side;
A random trial moisturiser that I ended up using as a body lotion just to get rid of it. nothing special and I don't know what brand it was anyway!
Elemis Herbal face mask mini - Having started with the Elemis cleanser and toner this week (and so far loving it!!) I decided to try the face mask - I have 2 of these minatures so used one up- thought it was ok but can't see a massive difference on my skin - but nice to use and I think I could be tempted to get a full sized one as it has great reviews and seemed nice - will try the second one next week and see what continued use does...
Hope everyone has a great Friday!
