    I love this moisturiser though I haven't used it for a long time. My Elemis Neck and Bust Cream is spluttering and I can't afford to replace it so was looking for alternative. I see that LE now do a neck and bust cream - have you tried this? Just wondering if thee is any comparison between the two products. Think I'll have a mooch on QVC and see what reviews are like.

    Haven't tried the LE bust cream - it is on my list but haven't seen an offer yet and I do like to see an offer:money:. I will resist as I still have about 7 tubes of skin repair :eek: as it tends to be a staple in all kits and offers that LE does...Gooid luck with QVC - I looked on there earlier and their website seems to be playing up AGAIN!

    On the plus side, managed to go in the Bare Minerals boutique in town without making a purchase this afternoon when I went to collect my new glasses.

    What a lovely list of liners :dance:

    I like the UD 24/7 liners best too although I haven't tried the No7 ones or the Avon supershock liners either...

    you may remember me mentioning the Me magazine woman who called and talked me into buying a trial of the magazine for £1?i had a letter after this saying thye were going to take £65 for a years sub before i had even seen the mag and I had to call and cancel???the letter looked like someone had printed it at home and was not signed and the so called coupon for £100 spa day said you could use any spa and had to pay and claim back off Me!!!
    Well after that another call said I would be getting a thank you set of coupons in the post,these arrived today but were in fact a welcome pack for a firm lets go rewards saying they would take £9 a month if I did not cancel:mad::mad::mad::mad:I called tham and they said they had had loads of conplaints form people like me who had not ordered the pack and they could not contact the Me mag who had given them my name (hope you follow this)they were following it up and cancelling all the unwanted orders(I think they are genuine)I called my bank to explain and of course could not do anything about the £1 already taken BUT strangly this week they had sent me a new bank card with a new number as they had taken over my old bank a while ago and my old card had run out....Karma or what???so as long as I activate my new card no more money can be taken out:)
    very annoying and I feel stupid at having beeen taken in and having spent at least an hour cancelling and calling people.

    do watch out,the woman seemed so honest and they say it supports cancer charities.i am planning to contact trading standards about it but would hate anyone else to fall for it,as the man I talked to today said a lot of people did not notice the letter saying £65 would be taken for the magazine and had already lost that money!

    Thankyou guys, Im at the stage now where im wondering about a small quiet email to his new boss asking if she can see if hes got them - its not what he took (apart from the purse that was a gift!) its the fact that hes done it at all that has made me so cross....

    anyway - onwards and upwards, its my karma that should be good and one day it will be ok....

    FAR more importantly, my skin has broken out in loads of spots - what can i use to sort them out? annoyingly ive only got 3 weeks till i need to look amazing.... ive got the remains of my benefit face wash which i love, but i dont think thats going to help - when it runs out i intend to get some pears soap and just use that for a bit - do you think that would sort me out?? im stuck !!!
