    Elizabeth Grant vitamin c day moisturiser- WIBA? probably not the pump stopped working on a replacement moisturiser they sent out to replace the first one which was quite gritty. Excellent customer service though. Was ok but am trying to buy more natural products, dont always follow through though and give in to scientific claims lol.

    I'm in again. One UU so far, Molton Brown body lotion, WIBA? no it was very runny ended up leaving it by the sink and using it as hand lotion.

    One IN, some Alpha H triple action face wash bought after October's treat of Bio Effect oil left me with a spotty face.
  • Two OUTs and two INs for me:

    OUTs:
    Nair Sensitive Formula Brush-On Facial Hair Remover - WNBA as it stang like heck, didn't get all the hairs and smelt horrible. Plus I finally braved getting my upper lip threaded last week and it wasn't anywhere near as painful as expected, so I've thrown this stuff away.
    Batiste Fresh Dry Shampoo - WBA as it did the job of making my hair less greasy and also smelt very nice.

    INs:
    Batiste XXL Volume Dry Shampoo to replace the one I've finished. Not so sure about it though, it smells quite nice but it's making my hair feel a bit producty, although that may be because it needs washing properly tonight...
    Rimmel Lycra Pro Matte Finish top coat - so much for non-essentials! But it'll get used.

    Hi all,
    One IN for me: a huge chunk of snowcake from LUSH. It's gorgeously creamy and smells of almond/play dough! I also received a sample pot of Ultrabland to try, which was very nice! :)

    I adore this soap! I hope I get a chunk for Christmas!

    2 UU for me:
    1x Rose bath fizzer. WIBA? Smelled nice, did its job, nothing more. They usually come in gift sets, so I don't sniff at them.

    1x Boots Essentials Cucumber wipes. WIBA? Possibly, only one more packet in stash now :j I will try the Tesco cucumber wipes now to see what they are like, i'm hoping for good things!

    Time to declare my big BS sale order :o;)
    5x Passionfruit cleansing gel- this is nice, will last foreeeeeever though.
    1x Passionfruit shower gel
    1x Fuzzy peach shower gel
    1x wild cherry body puree lotion
    1x rainforest radiance conditioner. All for about £8 delivered! :p

    Have a good evening everyone.
  • Evening all, UU Impulse Tease body spray - WIBA yes It was something a bit different from what I normally wear perfume wise and men can't help acting on it apparently! My hubby didn't though! Lol

    I am just back from Waitro$e who have reduced a lot of their hair care products. I bought my Andrew Collienge Sp? Blow Dry Lotion for £2.50 (half price) and Tresemme Root Boost Spray for 89p (was £3.50). I am nearing the end of the Blow Dry lotion so I am going to test the root boost tomorrow and if I like it I will be going back for me.

    The also had my HG Louise Galvin at 1/5 of the price but had sold out.

    Not the greatest start for this month but heh hoh at those prices I couldn't help myself.
