Sarah I'm glad you're feeling better. I hope the Tramadol works but please be careful. My sister's friend and a family friend both got addicted. It was really difficult hearing about it

Hi all
Ive had a few OUTS over the past few days with the swapsies group and a couple of UU's. Also i have one in - superdrug hot cloth cleanser which i needed anywa.
UU Rimmel glam eyes WIBA Yes, i love this mascara, it gives you thicker longer lashed in just one application, now moving onto a mini NO.7 one.
UU Clean mary WIBA yes but i prefer the bodyshop passionfruit one have replaced with the superdrug one,ive never tried it before and i must say its fab and very value for money.
UU a trial bodyscrub, WIBA i dont know the brand of this to buy again, but i wouldnt with this, was far too runny with no scrub at all - Moving onto a boots mango one from the swapsies group.
Need to place an order on TBS for a friends birthday so need to get on and off the site asap!!0 -
A couple of Ins but they were freebies! A Rimmel day 2 night mascara and a Blistex Raspbery lemonade lip balm :j0
-
Haha, I also got the Rimmel Day2Night (I was desperate to open it and see how it works but checked youtube instead) and Blistex lip balm (could smell it through the packaging, yummy). Also got 2 Avene samples, anti-redness cream and no rinse tissue off cleanser.
I have got 3 UU's
unbranded face mask that I picked up abroad - was supposed to last 6-8 applications, lasted more like 25. I just don't like slapping on an ultra thick layer of face mask.
Montagne Jeunesse Pomegranate and Passion fruit Peel Off mask(5ml) - another freebie that I got from them. It worked great, pulled off easily and in one piece, smells nicer than the cucumber one. I will definitely buy something from them in the future. Right now I don't have any face mask ( :j ) but I don't really need it ( :T ).
King of Shaves Woman shaving gel (smells of lemon and aloe) - nice enough, shaving gel is a shaving gel. Will move onto epilator for a moment.0 -
One IN to report over the weekend - Tesco Cotton Wool Balls as for some reason my cotton wool pads have gone walkies. So for I'm of two minds - they're OK for toner but not so much for taking nail polish off."A mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge." - Tyrion LannisterMarried my best friend 1st November 2014Loose = the opposite of tight (eg "These trousers feel a little loose")Lose = the opposite of find/gain (eg "I'm going to lose weight this year")0

Daughter's birthday is coming up and having given fabric shopping bags a good few times now (rather than expensive paper gift bags) I was looking for something else.
Primark had lovely colourful oversized scarves, so there we are ..the scarf was half price in the sale too, very MSE, given that the usual Primarni prices are on the floor anyway.Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again... I would have burned the pink candle, sculptured like a rose, that melted in storage." Don't keep things 'for best' - that day never comes. Use them and enjoy them now.0 -

That's a great idea - I may steal itSarah I'm glad you're feeling better. I hope the Tramadol works but please be careful. My sister's friend and a family friend both got addicted. It was really difficult hearing about it
:eek::eek: Oh My :eek: I'll speak to my GP about what I should be aware of - thanksLadyMorticia wrote: »My skin is so spotty at the moment.I'm using Clearasil because I have oily and spot prone skin but I haven't washed my face in a few days (I have M.E so the smallest things either leave me with no energy or I don't have the enegry to do them in the first place) and today is the first time in a few days that I've managed to wash my face so wondering if the spots are related to that.:eek:
HugsAfter the last few days I am making face cleaning a priority! I too have ME/CFS (and CPS & Bipolar) so know exactly what you mean about the energy thing. I told OH the other day that even if I have to have a nap between cleansing and toning I wasn't going a day without a cleansed face again - I was only partly joking :rotfl: I can recommend S&G's Dr Spot - it's worked wonders for me and OH - now I need to get DD to try it

A few UUs here, my guilty conscience at so many INS forced me to be ruthless....
Andrew Collinge Perfect Endings spray in conditioner - binned - my hair is short now so don't really need it & it's been open several years. WNBA
Aldi Ombia colour protect hairspray - also binned- -this has a horrible smell to it and was relegated to the back of the cupboard for that reason. WNBA
Grace Cole foot wash - never likely to be used for its intended purpose so decanted it into hubby's shower gel.Do nothing in haste; look well to each step; and from the beginning think what may be the end - Edward Whymper0 -
One UU today.
Dove Inivisible Dry Deodorant - WIBA? - Yes. Keeps me dry and lasts for ages.2019 Wins
