Itzybitzy

I will try nail envy.....they have never been so brittle!

and i don't have you :P so don't worry haha

Skyllo

2 INs already!

2x Neutrogena Norwegian Formula hand cream

This was a twin pack for £2.79 which is a bargain and this is my HG and my current one is spluttering. I'll leave them until I've used up the other 4 hand creams I have.

Hi All,

A couple of UU to get the ball rolling for April, one of which deserves a bit of a fanfare!! A full size tub of the much maligned S&G Flakeaway!!! :j:j:j Woo hoo, LHJ is an understatement as have only been using this on my feet and the bottom of my shins where I have very dry skin as just too greasy/water repellent to put anywhere else, not to mention the mess it makes in the bath/shower! According to my stash list I've a small one of these to go but I've a feeling I've seen another one kicking about too but should be a doddle after the big one! Suffice to say WNBA! :rotfl:

Estee Lauder Slim Shape + - this was only a small sample sized tube with one or two applications in it so difficult to say how effective it is - it did feel quite tingly so hopefully that's a good sign - if they still do it, I doubt I'd BA as it's probably quite expensive and I don't think there is a miracle cream out there to eradicate the dreaded cellulite completely or I'm quite sure I'd have a stockpile!!

Hope everyone has had a good Monday, my day was very busy but not too bad and on countdown now to a lovely long weekend :T

I have 2 unused tubes of the S&G Hand Food and both smell awful. I think they must only last about a year, so I use them on my feet. WNBA as I have lots of S&G still to use and think I have sickened myself with it!

I'm wondering when I got my set. It was either my birthday in August 2011 or Christmas 2010.I had a feeling it was maybe Christmas. I guess there are some advantages to living in a cold climate

moving related UU/GA:

UU:
bare minerals blemish therapy - WBA, this is my HG daytime spot concealer. i love that it conceals and does something to help heal it too.
Benefit powderflage - WBA, one of my HG eye concealers.

GA:
Yardley Peony shower gel - WNBA, has sls in.
molton brown shower gel - also WNBA because of SLS. also my mum loves molton brown so she may as well use it properly whereas i would be slathering it on to UU quickly.
MeMeMe primer - WNBA i just cant get over the fact it smells like strong bathroom/loo cleaner.
tarte bronzer - WNBA, im ghostly pale, i dont need a bronzer and the one i do is a nice pink bobbi brown one that matches my colouring. this one is too muddy.

Way to go you two. Great start to the month. Well done!! :T:T

I've had a busy day doing paperworky type stuff. I've also managed to find stuff that I thought I had lost as DD had taken over my make up drawer in the hall. I guess this is a good thing, so I didnt go out and buy replacements :beer:

There cant be many of us left without... if its me, thats fine too....

posted mine out today

UU - the sanctury body souffle.got gifted it by my mum ages ago cos she doesnt use them. WIB? Im not sure. Ive got a tiny s&g butter yourself up to finish now as my "normal" one, and then im down to just my Ted Baker one that I love - ive been keeping that one for when i go anywhere that i want to smell nice, and just usuing the other one daily. will have to think about this for next month when im a tiny bit richer maybe.

Itzybitzy - if you have me, after Easter is fine - I remember those days well!

My Alpha-h scrub is spluttering, goign to cut it open tomorow, might be the end of it. Was going to buy another but will resist and UU those I have in my stash. I know I have some Decleor to UU so will go and have a look at that later this evening.

I think the quoting has gone a bit wrong :rotfl: I posted my gift out a while ago, it's Itzybitzy who might not be able to send till after Easter!
