Oh no! :eek:
Scrappie - I wasn't sure if I should mention the sale here! Totally my fault if you cave inI was soooooo tempted by the masks and the prices are very good but I realised I have a pile of masks...(Mind you, I have a pile of moisturisers and I still bought the matt lotion
) Very excited about my 50ml salon size rose oil though - it will last me ages, in a nice way :-)
But, a huge thanks - saved me some cash there as I just KNOW I would shell out on the aftersun before my hols!
Lets see if the others can resist too

My Weleda box arrived but declared this last week when I bought it.
I have a UU - Patene shampoo WBA as it was reduced to 10p :ja couple of years ago, still have a couple more to use first.Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.

Another positive vote for the Garnier 2 in 1 makeup remover - one of the best eye makeup removers I've tried. I really like the Johnson's one too - I think it's the combination of two layers that does it.
Mingle - out of curiosity, why did you dislike the Lush Ice Blue soap? I've got some on the go in the kitchen at the moment and really like it - it has a lovely minty scent. Sadly discontinued now thoughSealed Pot Challenge Number 1225

I have another UU No.7 Beautiful Skin Cleansing Balm for Dry/Very Dry Skin 30ml - WMBA it didn't dry out my skin but it wasn't amazing. I have quite a few different cleansers in stock already waiting to by tried, including a few items already opened (including a massive superdrug one that I can't be bothered with right now).
I have opened another bottle of body lotion tonight unfortunately its nothing exciting and its a massive bottle so will last ages. I could become very tempted to buy body lotion now,because although I have plenty in the stash there is nothing that really want to use, its all quite boring stuff.0 -
I did it.... you're a bad, bad influence. If I were younger my mummy would tell me not to play with you:D

UU Nivea pure and natural body lotion and face care sample
95% natural aparently! I just love those claims. Annnyway, it smelt nice, absorbed well, but the sample size is pretty disapointing. Barely enough to do my face and just about did my legs with the body lotion (I know I have pretty big legs but my face is a normal size lol)0 -

I've got two UUs.
Nivea double action anti-perspirant roll on. WNBA. The 'double action' relates to its claim to reduce hair growth under your arms but I think it had the opposite effect and made it grow faster! I don't have scientific evidence or a control group but the empirical evidence of my own pits tells me to buy something different next time!
Boots time delay wrinkle prevention day cream, SPF8. WBA, this is one of my HG products and I've used it for years. Also there is often £5 off! Now going to crack open a Superdrug vitamin E day cream about which I hear good reports.
Had NPI in Harvey Nics today when I walked past the Laura Mercier and NARS counters and both had some really nice bright pink blushers, which I've had my eye out for, but resisted until current stash exhausted.
Also making inroads into terrifying self tanner stash now that nicer weather is here. Used some Garnier gradual tanning moisturiser tonight, have enjoyed getting my legs out this week and allowing the air to circulate but crikey there's a lot of shaving, moisturising and tanning work to make them fit to be seen!
Enjoy the sunshine everybody.0 -
