    I have a few GA's to report

    Champneys Citrus Blush Body Lotion, Citrus Blush Body Scrub & Citrus Blush Shower Gel

    Very disappointed as I was using these, they were lovely and then I started coming out in hives over my body. Turns out I reacted to the orange oil in these products :(.

    well Debs never did send me my memorable date but I did find a bit on the website that says points only last 6 months and it is clearly stated on the email we send you.......NOT ON MINE! I checked all through mine and there is no mention of points expiring!!!I am guessing I have 6 months to use mine though,pain as hardly ever shop instore as not convenient(out of town)

    Afternoon Lovelies! :wave:

    I am in the throes of sorting through my stash as we speak. :o:D

    I'm just having a quick :coffee: and thought I'd update the thread with my UUs.

    UU Mir Cleansing Gel 200ml WIBA? This is HG for me. It's really simple, non drying, it doesn't irritate, you can wipe it off or rinse it off, it doesn't leave a residue, it clears away the residue of other cleansing products such as balms or oils and leaves my skin cool calm and looking good. It's expensive and it doesn't remove make up very well so I use it for my second cleanse at night and my morning cleanse in the shower. I'm going to try and do without it for a while though.

    UU Gale Hayman LipLift. WIBA? Another HG for me. It just keeps my lips happy. When I experiment with other cheaper lip balms things tend to go to pot in the lip department.
    :eek: I nstill have one on the go, but I'll definitely buy some more soon.

    Does anyone else do this?

    I've noticed that when something is spluttering I'll actually find myself using it less instead of more because I don't want to use it up? :doh::wall: I really noticed I was doing it with the Mir Cleansing Gel.

    I'm rubbish at making myself use up products I don't like as well. My DIL-to-be and my daughter get all those.

    Hope you're all having a good day! :D

    I'm going back to making myself part with some make up now.

    :eek: :eek: :eek:

    some more U/Us

    Tresemme Thermal recovery hair conditioner. WNBA I feel about Tresemme as I do about Pantenne. Very unenthusiastic!

    L'oreal Elvive Smooth silk intense WNBA again just too boring

    Ald@ Renovage Intensive Serum it was fine for my decolletage but WNBA unless it was very much reduced.

    Aromatherapy Associate Rose Firming eye serum and Rose overnight repair cream. Nothing wrong with these. 2 years old very bored with them now. If I had only used them on the eye area they would have lasted another 2 years. WNBA although they did make my face and neck feel very soft and smooth as I was using them as night cream to u/u

    I can't wait to use up my stash I have really realised how bored I get with non HG products.

    just been to church to make a start on my Easter flowers and was shocked to see the amount of dog s*** in the grounds next to the paths where people walk,(you have to go through two gates to get into the grounds so the dogs are not strays!):mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
  • Our boss has let everyone go home early as it's the Easter weekend but I have a train to catch at 7.30 so I'm still here :( I've used up a couple of things: Schwarzkopf Yoghurt & Red Berry Conditioner, which I might buy again as it was very cheap and reasonably effective, and Lush Red Rooster soap, which was nice but there are other soaps which I prefer.

    I probably won't get many items used up over the next week, as I'm at home with my parents and will be using the stuff I've got up there. However in an attempt to finish off something I'm taking four lip balms home! Creme Brulee Vaseline for night time, Burt's Bees for daytime, and two Body Shop festive lip balms which are nearly empty. The Spiced Vanilla one in particular only has a tiny bit left and I can't wait to finish it as I don't really like it!
