    Mines big enough to hold a lip shimmer in, and a few slender items of make-up, such as mini-blusher, eyeliner, compacts, etc.
    New forum. New sig. Yes I still need to lose 2 stone! :smiley:

    Anyone who used to buy Burt's Bees in the past, be aware that they have changed their best products ALOT. I used to use Baby Bee Buttermilk lotion and the "new and improved" formula smells absolutely rank. The Milk and Honey lotion has changed too. Not sure why they made the changes, but they've had loads of complaints on review websites. I HATE that the baby products now contain limonene, a "known skin irritant" (wikipedia) but it is really hard to find anything these days that doesn't have it.

    Not sure if this helps you... but limonene is naturally occuring in essential oils, so any product with an essential oil in is going to contain limonene. It is usually only artificially manufactured limonene which is harmful to the skin.

    May be they were getting mixed up with lanolin.

    Got mine yesterday.

    Many thanks - will stash it away in the cupboard and will add it to a hamper when girlie goes to Uni in September.

    Well some of it!
    Here dead we lie because we did not choose
    To live and shame the land from which we sprung.
    Life, to be sure, is nothing much to lose,
    But young men think it is,
    And we were young.

    Thanks, just bought one, I'm hoping there's some good stuff leftover! I bought a lip shimmer for £5.99 on top to push it over the £25 for free delivery. Sounds like it's going to be a great bag to split and resell or give as gifts after I've picked out the bits I want!
