    As we're talking cleansers, what's the best cleanser for waterproof mascara please? Is Dermologica worth the £21 best price? My normal cleanser doesn't get it off.

    Any tips gladly received, ta.
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?

    Hi there

    The b@@ts one which comes in '2 parts' in the bottle work for me, you just shake and then apply. I would try it as cheaper. It is a good copy of the Bi-facil Lanc@me one IMO
    The L@real I seem to remember is also ok.

    I seem to have a houseful of girls every weekend, I think I must be crazy. It seems strange when they all go home, but I cant stand the mess they leave behind.

    Hope it all went well last night Mrs B, did they sleep ?

    I buy the G@rnier two part eye make up remover for DD1 . She says it takes her Waterproof mascara off well.

    Well done for breaking the Cl@rins habit Mrs B, but I have never heard of £mma H£rdie either. I will take a look. :)

  • Hope the evening with all those girls went ok! I've never heard of EH, it took a while to break my E.L@uder habit but once I did and found suitable replacements I'm not sure i'd ever go back to spending all that again! I use the garn1er make up remover that you have to shake up first it's great :)

    Hi everyone

    Sorry haven't been on the diaries..too much sitting outside and working in the garden!, what weather!! It's been fab, also lovely to have OH home although he goes again next week..

    Done Tilly Tidies and generally wept a little at the size of the debt( not really but would be nice to not have it!!) before pulling myself together and doing a meal planner for next week from stores..Some spends as DD's birthday and also a trip to the garden centre but otherwise pretty quiet. OH also installed a new ( but cut price .£90) shower on Friday..the old one was over 15 years old and leaked like a sieve...

    But only spent on groceries today, after all we do have to eat!!

    Hope everyone has had a good bank hols x
