was going to be bad(twice:eek:) by buying sanctuary spa box from sanctuary spa and then from boots(along with other stuff) then after putting in basket I thought "Why am I doing this when I still have some of last years SS stuff in the cupboard?"

so closed down sites:j:A:A:A

fed up cos Dh just said he is going away again for most of next week and the one after and have only seen him a few mins today after him being away all week:(:(:(

I think we all have our own certain weaknesses. Mine are (obviously) nail polishes and eyeshadows. I could start a shop :eek::o I also had lots of eyeliners, but I can think of at least three (that I love) going missing Have I misplaced them, or was it a sister who's the culprit??

Rosemary, I know it's not quite the same, but you have us to give you a bit of company Did you manage to order your YSL stuff? The email from Debs today with the extra 10% off code said that one can't be used on beauty & fragrance

I have just found out that Original Source have a limited edition black cherry and almond shower gel out!!
My two favourite scents-- ohh I can't wait to try it.

Is it a bit sad to be that excited about a shower gel?

Me too. Wish I could control myself however I am pleased as I think I have managed to prevent myself from buying the forthcoming QVC OPI TSV. It's coming up next Thursday 24 November and I've been over on shoppingtelly.com hanging on for them to give details of the kit contents hoping that Rainbow Connection (from the new Muppets collection and which is selling out everywhere) is in it. Anyway was surfing today and found some in stock at asos.com so have ordered a bottle so that I won't have to even LOOK at the TSV (yeah right, like that's going to happen!).

Also ordered a bottle of OPI White Shatter that has been reduced on asos.com (more available if anyone wants them for stocking fillers) and I got 10% off with free delivery. So is this :money:?

here i was innocently attending a work conference and buying the obligatory raffle ticket and what did i win? a Sanctuary weekend case with some lovely goodies in it, the first ins i've had for some time but not bad considering i rarely win anything.

Well done for your win Lemon Tree - maybe it's a sign that your working too hard and need to treat yourself?

My UU's are apparently like buses, waiting around for ages, then a load come along at once:

Lush Rose Jam bath bomb - Smells lovely, but didn't produce as much bubbles as the other bubble bars, so WNBA
Lush Cupcake face mask - WNBA, didn't really do much for my skin. And I had a reaction to it last night, so I had to bury my face in a bag of frozen prawns for about 10 mins until the redness faded - no idea why though, it's the 6th time I've used it?!
Ghost Deep Night perfune - WBA in the sales, I love this perfume, can't recommend it enough.
Herbal Essences Deep ends shampoo - Nice shampoo, smells great, but nothing special. WNBA as I'm trying to go for more environmentally friendly options (i.e. solid shampoos)
Boots Sun Swim and Gym conditioner - same as the shampoo, it's alright, but nothing amazing. Plus the bottle is WAYYY to small for me and my long hair, I got through it so quickly.

I've also given away 2 bodyshop eyeshadows to a friend. She's a makeup junkie and although I shouldn't be encouraging this, I've never used these eye shadows (bought in April!) and at least I know they'll get used in their new home.

I hope everyone enjoys the rest of their weekends!

I have and OUT and a GA. Chucked out my tube of Benefit Bad Gal mascara in plum. WBA probably but when I have some cash to spare. The GA is the Ojon Treatment that I am swapping.

Have items that are spluttering but am hoping to get through a week without buying anything at all from Boots/Superdrug/Sainsburys.

ASOS have confirmed that my OPI order is on its way so can't wait to apply Rainbow Connection. At the moment am wearing OPI Plugged in Plum with Excuse Moi on my two ring fingers.

Another UU, S&G breakfast scrub. Love this, its one of my HGs when I'm buying scrubs

Hi all,

One UU: Bastise dry shampoo-Blush-50ml WIBA? Yes probably, don't use it that often, so will probably buy a little one again at some point.

Unfortunately, two naughty INs
Bodylishuss! (poundland) pomegranate gift set of body butter 50ml and body scrub 50ml. Smells lovely, a gentle fruity scent and rubs in well. The body scrub is a little poor tbh, but I think the butter itself is worth the £1. (I know they have the bigger tubs for £1, but it takes me ages to get through a butter as it is...)
They also have a cranberry set... (so will probably back to try that one too).

Hope everyone has had a good weekend.
