    I actually managed to hand my Avon catalogue back without an order this time :j although since I had just bought the Liz Earle TSV from QVC it wasn't that much of an achievement :rotfl:

    One UU for today (well last night) Avon Liiv Botanicals night cream, I WBA but Avon have stopped selling it, it was a nice light cream that was always on offer in the Avon book!
    Now trying to decide between digging in the stash for a moisturiser or going straight for the shiny new Liz Earle Superskin!!

    I am off work this week so aiming for some major pamper time to help UU all those toiletries!

    Have a nice evening all

    I'm a bit behind not having been on here for a couple of weeks but I'm using the Liiv night cream and have to say I'm not that impressed with it, maybe because it's more of a gel than a cream, and think it makes my face feel sticky, whereas I really liked the day cream and was a bit cross that Avon didn't sell these creams for very long. I originally bought them I think it was when they were half price and would certainly have paid £3.50 for the day cream again.
    Did owe £9,951.96

    Now helping hubby pay off loan. Finally paid off :j

    Owe Virgin [STRIKE]£5,950.00 [/STRIKE]at 0% til June 2009 £3,427.89. Owe HSBC [STRIKE]£5,460.78 [/STRIKE]2.9% til May 2010 £3,703.07. Owe Post Office £1,676.62 at 0% til September 2010

    Hello lovelies!

    So nice to come back to 8 pages to catch up on :) Hugs to everyone x
    Welcome to lucyloo! That's awful Mingle - what happened?! Loving the nail designs Sawan x

    IN:
    Jergens Cocoa Butter Body Lotion - it is SO nice to not have a stash of something, and go buy it because I need it! Feeling very motivated to work towards having only one of each product on the go!

    That saying, I will be going to Paris next weekend, so I will defo be adding to my stash with some beloved Bioderma and Embryoliss products. Any tips for not going OTT? I can stop myself buying things in the UK, but my stash tends to multiply exponentially whenever I go to Paris or the States!
    Any advice/a motivational speech would be very much appreciated! :)

    You seem to have found/resurrected the October thread from last year! Confused the hell out of me when I saw 2 threads with nearly identical titles!
