    One UU to report:

    B4 Colour Remover Extra Strength- WIBA? - Not entirely sure as I haven't blowdried my hair yet. :p The reviews weren't lying when they say it absolutely stinks...like rotten eggs ans flowers! It's bearable but not that nice. I got a shock when rinsing as I saw some blonde! I know I'm neaturally blonde but knowing my luck it'll dry ginger.:rotfl: My hair felt a bit dry whilst rinsing it out so will leave-in condition my hair to death.:p My hair was bright red so will be interesting to see what colour it dries. :)

    LMAO :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: It depends what's the better option: dreaming or a passionate burglar!!

    I get some sort of dermatitis when I use the towel in the bathroom at work, so I keep my own one hidden. Chemist said it's probably where the others don't wash chemicals, grease, etc. off properly :eek:
    depends on the burgler!!!told Dh he should kiss me more as dreams showing me what I am missing:rotfl:he is away tonight on business and i booked his hotel,the offer was for d,B&B and £15 voucher ,price was the samw if he went alone or I went too seems a bit odd!

    Not sure what your budget is but I really like the Liz Earle light moisturiser. I suffer with an oily forehead and noticed since I've been using it my forehead looks completely different. Compared to other moisturisers I've used in the past I feel this one actually sinks in rather than sit on my skin and it smells really nice too :).

    Thanks lynseydee :)

    I've haven't got a budget and have never tried Liz Earle so will give it a go - can you recommend the best place to purchase from please??

    Hi bunnykins,

    I usually buy Liz Earle direct off the website. The products always come beautifully packaged and there's usually a trial size goodie in there too. You can also buy them in selected John Lewis branches if you have one near you.

    Sawan - what a great present. It's so nice to see there are still kind people out there. She must have really appreciated your help.

    Have painted my nails with the free In Style Nails Inc Orange from April. It's very easyJet, not really sure it's suitable for work but no comments yet, just a few strange looks!!

  • A UU to report, just finished up a Lush creamy candy bar. Thats me out of Lush bombs and bath foams again! Wish I could use the soap anywhere near as quick.

    Stash is looking quite aparse through, some sun producs which I'll use on hols next week, loads of soap, couple of shower gels/face washes and everything else is pretty much a one/two off. Going to make moving so much easier if we ever get there...
    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 sales

    Hi all

    Just got back from holiday on Wednesday and trying to catch up on everything - had a great time and got 1 IN to declare. Castelbel lime and kiwi soap 150g. Had to get a Portugese soap and have tried different portugese soaps before and they are really good quality. Will open once I have used my Arran aromatics soap.

    I will catch up again soon, hope everyone is OK, and using up all your lovely stashes - off to list on ebay now...................bye!

    Two more UUs to report:

    Schwarzkopf XXL Live Cosmic Blue hair dye x 2 - WIBA? - Yes. Love the colour. Unfortunately I have some little bits of hair that the dye didn't cover so will venture out tomorrow to get another pack so that all my hair is covered. :) Also need tips on getting hair dye off of skin! Might see if I can get some hair colour remover wipes from Superdrug.

    Nail Varnish remover gets hair dye off LadyM - just be careful not to get it in your eyes (ive tested this - stingy !!!)

    one UU today - the black nasty Lush soap !! HURRAH !!!!!! WIBA? no. its the final part of the sale bags from last year sometime - and even if I was still buying from Lush (which as you all know by now Im not!) I wouldnt buy this. I dont rate their soaps at all actually (and Ive had a LOT to try out from these bags!!) and im glad they are all gone now.

    Hi Ladies, just a quick comment to alert you of my celebrity status :) If anyone saw Granada news or Channel 4 looking at the University of Salford clearing line you would have spotted me :)
