My son looks EXACTLY like Dr Christian Jessel except he is much taller and has short dark brown hair. Saves me posting a pic.Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again... I would have burned the pink candle, sculptured like a rose, that melted in storage." Don't keep things 'for best' - that day never comes. Use them and enjoy them now.0

I used Botanics Rosewater before and didn't find it very good but am now using Garnier Toner for Dry Skin with extracts of rose and it's really good (and cheap!).
Another UU today - small size Neutrogena hand cream. I have some more in stock as it's my HG night hand cream
Thanks for your post. I haven't even noticed that the Debenhams offer had restrictions on it. I'm not going to use it now - have decied to gift from my stash as mentioned in my last post. Very :money: eh?
I think I'd probably pass on the Garnier toner but thanks for the recommendation. My skin reacts to the ingredient rose extract so will stick with LE I think. My quest for a cheaper better toner is over because I just don't think I can find one! I decant the bigger bottle into a 30ml spritzer bottle so it goes further anyway. From memory the 200ml bottle lasts me about 4 months so that's not bad going I suppose.
Have just repainted my nails and am wearing OPI Cara Mia Crimson. Reminds me of my holiday to Orlando a few years ago as I had a mani done before I went in this colour then bought it and about 12 other bottles from the US whilst there.
No plans for today. Going to collect Emma from karate at 10.00am. She took part in a 24 hour lesson yesterday to help raise funds to send some of her friends to the WKC Championships in October.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!

3 UU - 1 celine dion perfume MIL bought me. It was actually quite nice! Prob won't buy it again though as i already have a fave perfume to buy. 1 Batiste dry shampoo, already bought another one as need it for the gym. 1 pack of No.7 make up wipes. Already have another in stock and WBA as when the £5 off vouchers are around and with staff discount they only cost me 44 p too
Face wash is now in its final 1/3 by the looks of it toocome ooooooon!

Thank goodness for that. I thought it was spot the difference and I've been sat here for 2 hours! Only joking :rotfl:
Gary is a great name for a cat. Hope it never gets shortened to Gazza.
The weather here is absolutely awful. MrM has comandeered the TV yet again to play Battlefield and Emma is fast asleep bless her. xBack for the No Buying Toiletries challenge.
