Welcome newbies !!
Hmmm. day 1 and already I need to squeeze my bum onto the naughty step - trip to boots and ive bought the new benefit mascara, the thicker moisturiser (that replaced the Dear John that I loved so much before) a soap and glory travel body scrub, and one of each travel Ted Baker body butter. I only need to go on the step for one of the butters though - my Love etc lotion is spluttering, and as I was out tonight I wanted to smell different....
Mascara is really nice to use - hadnt realised quite how bad my old ones must be, think there will be a few outs tomorrow !!!! (mind you - at just over £18 a wand, youd want it to be good !!!)Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup0 -
I'm in this month too. I'm not so bad with buying toiletries (anymore!) but I'm terrible for make up, I used to sell virgin vie so have all my old kit, plus silly amounts more that I've bought! I'll try and do an inventory but that may take some time! I'm also going to try and actually start using more, so getting into a skincare routine, moisturising, and wearing make up more too. There's no point in it just being expensive drawer fillers!0

i'm in again this month. Still need to do my stash list though.0

the vit e serum from BS still stinging my face so using elsewhere....am i the only one to put serum on my toes???:rotfl::rotfl:0

Morning all
Think I only posted 3 times in Sept, that's good going!
3 UU's and 5 INs to report for Oct so far (sounds worse than it is!)
UU's:
- 1 x Soft & Gentle deoderant - WIBA? Yes good product
- 1 x Tresemme Brunnette shampoo - WIBA? yep a HG of shampoo! It lasts forever!!
- 1 x Charles Worthington Salt Spray - WIBA? Yep, another HG. I got this courtesy of another MSEr via the FB swapsies group and I love it sooooo much. I've never embraced my waves before, always straightened my hair, but now I do waves at least twice a week
IN's:
- 3 x travel sized CW Salt Spray (so only really the equivilant of one IN!!). As I'd UU'd the last bottle I went to buy in Boots, everything is 342 but I didn't really need 3 items. The full size spray was £7, but I got 3 travel sized ones (which equals same amount of full sized one) for £5.10 on the 342!!Even better value, and I'm off travelling for a month so will be handy to take smaller bottle.
- 1 Soft & Gentle deoderant to replace the UU
- 1 x Cowshed Hand Cream (grapefruit and corriander) - Free with my issue of Instyle magazine.
So all in all not bad!
