Ok now I am paranoid that I stink! Been using one of these as a deo for the last week
No one has complained tho so all goodSorry Adela! I know lots of people rave about them but I seem to react to it after a few hours - I'm pretty sure it isn't just that I pong, I hope not! :eek:
Out of interest which one do you use? It's the blue one that I'm using.0 -
One UU:
kyoku body wash fire sample - Amazing body wash. It was in fact a men's shower gel, but the ginger in it brought out the sweetness of the shower gel. it was pure luxury. I went onto cult beauty to see how much it cost, yep maybe another time lol. I hate it when I fall in love with a product after trying a sample, only to find out it's a bit out of my budget.No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries Challenge

A nail thread might be good. When I followed lots of nail blogs a few years ago, I did buy more polish and products, but I think I made less buying mistakes because of reading people's opinions of brushes, coverage, wear and tear etc, also on these blogs which had lots of photos it was great to see what polishes looked like on the nail - living in the sticks means I had to buy on spec quite a lot. QVC makes it easier, the only time I buy "wrong" colours now is if they are part of a set which offers good value for other items I want.
Keep warm and safe everyone, cold and grey today.
I've bought more since joining this challenge
Someone start a nails thread for us! I'm too rubbish at explaining stuff to start it myself and it needs an exciting intro:D:rotfl::j0 -
