Bohemian rose - I have the Vanilla Puff dusting powder from Lush. I use it sometimes after a bath or shower as well as a moisturiser (but on different 'bits' if that makes sense - moisturiser on my legs and arms, powder everywhere else!). It smells lovely. Sometimes I sprinkle it on my bedsheets or the carpet to make it smell nice too (luckily my carpet is cream!).

Thanks Absinthe Fairy! That does sound lovely, I'm afraid that I'll be heading for the naughty step!

DH did the same trip with work and 1 woman did not realise RA was less generous plus she had bought stuff...total 24 kilos!!!! so Dh ended up with a load of her clothes in his case and was quite worried in case she did not take back all her undies:rotfl:

:rotfl:That would have taken some explaining!

That's really annoying about the baggage limits - 15 kg is measly.

Thanks so much for all your kind wishes - I shall pass them on to MrEH. He's met his best friend for a drink tonight which will be a good thing I think.

I have a couple of products spluttering - my S&G Greatest Scrub of All now has the top cut off the tube but there is masses left in it - as it's now open to the elements I'll probably use it on my neck & chest as well as my face the next few times to use it up. Also my Charles Worthington shampoo which I suspect doesn't even have enough in it for one more wash so I will get another bottle out to carry on with - probably the Avon one. I *think* that then leaves only one bottle in the stash - the first time for over two years I've been able to say that!

Ruby_Eskimo - I have done your questionnaire. I feel your pain in trying to get people to do it as I had to do a similar thing for my dissertation! So best wishes with it all & good luck with your course

sorry to hear your news EH, sending you lots of hugs

Sorry to hear your sad news.

Got a tip for anybody cutting tubes open to use up the last bits of product (I'm obsessed with doing this, even with toothpaste, people laugh but I don't care!). Cut the tube an inch before the seal at the top, scoop out the product from the bit you cut off then fit it back over the end of the tube.

I've had a tube of Clinique facial cleansing mousse, which lasts ages anyway, on the go for weeks with this method. Stops the product drying out and going manky.

UUs: Kiehl's intensive hand cream WIBA? Not at the prices they are charging. I don't really see what's so great about Kiehl's to be honest. Better stuff out there for less.

L'Occitane lavender soap. Was a present. I used it in the shower instead of a gel because when do you get to use block soap these days? WIBA? Yes, it was really nice and smooth and smelled great, but I don't really 'do' soap.

Boots time delay wrinkle prevention moisturiser. WIBA? Yes, I love it. Have got another 3 in the stash as a consequence of £5 voucher madness. On to using Sanctuary illuminating day moisturiser now (voucher-induced brainstorm caused me to buy even more moisturiser before I found this thread)

One OUT: Dior diorissimo soap. I'd had it so long that it had started to smell weird. Let that be a lesson to me, why didn't I just use it up?

Two UUs for me today!

Head & Shoulders dry scalp shampoo WIBA? Yes as it smells nice and feels lovely, would only buy when on offer though! Oh and once I've used up my other shampoos of course!

Tesco's cheaper brands...Extracts Vanilla Bath Creme WIBA? Well it smells nice (smells more like their custard doughnuts tbh!) and it's quite cheap, but smell can be a bit too sickly I think...

But yay! Two UUs!

Thanks for the review on the bath creme - it was on my "to try" list, but I might strike it off now!
