Quickie post, I'm definitely IN - and probably will be for the forseeable future
I've done my epic fail declaration on the July thread
Thanks for starting the August thread Mingle :j
You guys are fast, there was only one page when I was catching up on my mobile yesterday coming back on the M40 (I wasn't driving).
Adilade - your post made me laugh sooo much! It was totally what I was going to writeRamadan is the same for me, with being at home more I'm counting on it reducing my ins
(Trying not to buy online either).
August is also my birthday month, and toiletry ins as gifts are rare, but I always buy myself something I really want but feel bad buying any other time of year, or asking somebody else to get me. I wanted the Flora by Gucci handbag spray set that's on offer in Boots, but with my luck I went to order today and it's oos. Should have bought it Friday when I saw it
Hopefully going to catch up now
ETA: Caught up nowWelcome to everybody who's joined or re-joined

I'll have to write a list of what I have this evening0

Like DorsetGirl, tonight is my first UU.
Head And Shoulders Colour Care Conditioner
WIBA? No.
It's not a bad conditioner and my hair does feel in lovely condition (not like it did just before I washed my hair after using the sachet of VO5's Give Me Moisture shampoo/conditioner that was laying around last night. Nasty stuff!) but H&S strips my hair of it's dyed colour. I'm trying to use it up now the colour's growing out and needs cutting and dying again.
The shampoo (well, not colour care, it's the damage protect one) is spluttering so I can get it cut and coloured hopefully by this time next weekPrincess Sparklepants0 -

Evening all. Here is my updated stash list with my birthday gifts. Red products are in use. I am predicting a UU tomorrow morning - my LHJ S & G Clean on me which I WNBA.
I am also reporting that my Tweezerman brow gel is on its last legs. Used it last night and think I have scraped most of it out with the wand. I will double check this during my mid-week tidy up.

Hello ladies,
I'm in for August!
I have my first out for the month: a 17 eyeshadow in Blue Belle. I've been using this for work for as long as I can remember and I just couldn't stand the sight of it. So in a rash moment I chucked it.
August is probably going to be a bad month for INs as I'm coming to the UK for a few days and that always means temptation..........Do nothing in haste; look well to each step; and from the beginning think what may be the end - Edward Whymper0 -
I don't hoard sanitary products myself - more a case of rushing out at the last minute to buy a pack of tampons! However I've just invested in a Mooncup, so if all goes well I will never have to buy a tampon again...Sealed Pot Challenge Number 1225
