    INs (both bought with advantage points)
    Tangle teaser brush
    17 Shine Control loose powder (there was a voucher on the machines to get this for £2 rather than £5.49 :money:) got it because i don't want to use my nice stuff just to do my face for the gym (and no, i cant go out anywhere without make-up, even the gym:o)
  • today's UU:

    Weleda pomengrante oil - lovely lovely lovely WBA! I loved how rich and natural it felt, and the scent was amazing

    TBS Moringa body scrub - this was given to me recently, and it worked very well. The floral scent was strong, but I'm not complaining. The granules were very coarse (which I like) and worked wonderfully as an exfoliator. WBA if it was on offer.

    Bumper UU's last night and this morning.

    Nivea facial Wipes - WBA as they work well for my oily skin and don't cause outbreaks (well not any more that I naturally get anyway). Still have 3 left in the stash and are great for lazy nights.

    Listerine Mouth Wash 500mls - WBA as I really like it. I now only have one other 500ml one left in my stash. As I have already said I am no longer counting dental INs as it is finally under control. I am still counting out the last of the dental stash as it will affect my overal product shash list/number and what to keep that on track.

    Blanx Toothpaste - WBA - see above

    I see we are back in recession again - that will maybe help some of us keep on the straight and narrow with this challenge. The money we splurge on non essentials will be spent on keeping the basics going in my life - like petrol so I can do my job.

    This has also sold me on what I am going to use my SPC cash on - a second freezer for the bargain food.

    I just stumbled across this on the site and I know someone (sorry can't remember who) asked what some of us do to stay motivated.

  • Another 3 UUs:

    Liz Earle Botanical Shine shampoo - WNBA - this doesn't seem to suit my hair - I really want to like it but for some reason it just doesn't work for me. My search for my HG shampoo & conditioner continues...

    Liz Earle Botanical shine conditioner -
    as above really I'm afraid

    Bare Minerals Bisque/well rested duo -
    WBA but not as a duo as I found the pot a bit of a faff. Well rested is one of my HG products and I like bisque too as it helps to tone down my rosy cheeks. It will come as no surprise to you all that I have plenty in my stash already.......

    I didn't know that there was another You LiB box coming up - any ideas anyone what will be in this one?????
  • After a naughty nail varnish IN, it's PAY DAY tomorrow...and I want to treat myself (oooops disgraceful!!!) to a nice face mask. My skin is normal, but I get dry patched where I've had spots. And I seem to be getting more of them recently :mad: - it's more that there are black heads and blocked pores which are bumpy on my skin. They don't turn into gooey spots unless I squeeze. Which I can't help but do...

    So - any recommendations for face a mask under £10? (sorry if this leads you to purchase!!)
