And finally....... My bio oil is spluttering. It was the biggest bottle they do. I use it instead of night cream when I'm not sticking facial self tanner on.

I know that lots of people say that bio oil is a big con and the active ingredient is duck feather oil and there's no way that vitamins A and E can remain in suspension in the oil for very long blah blah but I trust my own judgement on this one and I can truly say that my skin has never been as nice as it has since I've been using bio oil, plus it feels gorgeous on.

The next thing in stock is the Sanctuary facial oil (£5 voucher barminess again), which I'm told is really nice so I won't be too disappointed to see the end of the lovely Bio oil, but I expect to buy it again.

At a meeting I attended this afternoon, a lady there, in her 70's, was showing us how well an opertion scar on her hand had healed, it was only a few weeks since the surgery, and we could hardly see the incision - she credited the healing and the lack of scarring totally to using Bio-oil.

Another UU: S&G Hand Food.

WIBA? Sometimes it seemed to go on really well, but other times it just seemed to rub get spread over rather than absorbed by the skin. And I misplaced it for a month or so and when I refound it, it smelled a little off (not too much, but it was only gone for a little while...). So WNBA.

Still catching up. I'm so glad someone else has had this problem with S&G handfood. Thankfully I had one that finished last night and was using it on my feet but it smelled awful I still have 2 more in the stash to use and both smell yucky so they are for my feet.

7 pages later and I have caught up.
I have 3 INS fcuk body wash, reduced to £1.28 in Boots and on 3 for 2. It's a huge 500ml bottle so will last for ages (like I need it!!) but thought it was a bargain, so bought 3.
Also have 2 INs but free from Boots - a £2 off mascara or lipstick, well the Natural Collection is all under £1.99 so 'bought' one of each. :j

Evening ladies,

Anyway, a UU. Some ancient facial wipes. Not really ancient, I don't mean they date from the early Babylonian period or anything, but old in cosmetic terms. I think I must have bought them in 2007. I found them in a neglected make up bag in my desk drawer. The bag was once used regularly, in my previous job where my colleagues liked to go for a drink on a Friday night post work. I changed jobs in 2009 and now work somewhere that isn't anywhere near as lively. The wipes were once used to take the day's make up off before slapping on my pub & disco face. Anyway, the make up bag appears to have preserved them quite well cos they weren't quite dried out and two thirds were left. They were Asda's own brand.

Any wipes dating from 2007 which haven't dried out sound like a good purchase!

I'm longing to try this! The reviews on the Boots website are excellent. Might just have to buy a bottle on my next trip.....

I have another UU:
Boots Mediterranean almond, mint & olive lip balm. Was a nice product but had it years and it's been discontinued as far as I know, so can't buy again.

Oh, and I think it's my 100th post. I have a long way to go until I catch some of you up!!

I have few UUs to report

Herbal essences dazzling shine conditioner: I have always liked herbal essences but as they have changed the formula now, it's no longer my favourite so WNBA

TBS Olive body butter: This was part of a gift set but it's doesn't smell very feminine so WNBA

Lush Baby face - DH was using it as a shave oil/ cream as I didn't like it for my face so WNBA

I have also found an old Lush Karma shampoo bar. Don't like it for my hair so using it as a soap in the shower.

I may also have a IN pretty soon as trying to declutter shower at the moment so will exchange 5 lush black pots for a fresh face mask

UU S&G Clean on Me shower gel WBA woohoo can't believe it's finished! Got another in the stash but on to a Molton Brown mini for a nice change!

Adela31

Woo, going to GA some unopened moisturisers to someone at work who said she couldnt find a good one this weather. Just little tester sizes, realised I dont have many that I havent stuck a finger in at least once

Hi ladies- hope you're all well.

I have a few outs courtesy of ebay.

TBS Satsuma Shower Gel- I think I have another in the stash.
TBS passionfruit cleanser- I dislike this, it's so drying on my face- OH is using the open one.
OPI Rainbow collection nail varnish- This was a dupe- my OH had bought me one for my birthday and then unknowingly I bought one for myself. DOH!

sunshineyday

evening all,

no more ins or outs to declare but I did PYTN with Nails Inc New York ( a diet coke freebie forever ago), a very vibrant pink which is quite cheery looking.

Also had my first ever spray tan today, I'm ever so slightly worried as I have a very definite green tinge. I'm hoping it will all wash off in the morning. I'm off to a formal tomorrow and was aiming for the sunkissed look, not shrek, please can some of you lovely ladies tell me if this is normal?
