Wow this is all such an eye-opener!! This is my first day on here and I thought I was the only person to have a collection of every toiletry and make-up item known to man...my friend once said that I had more stuff in my bathroom than Boots have on their shelves. So yes chums I am def subscribing to no buying unnecessary toiletries unless I have to...for the rest of the year yikes!!

I actually adore this trailer....don't particularly like Anne Hathaway...but this is beautiful! Also love the idea of Russell Crowe as Javier

Just seen the freebies in next months Glamour was really tempted then realised that two of them are for Normal to combination skin and I have dry skin, oh well. They do have my current eye cream though, so that could be a big temptation.

Without encouraging anyone next month they are giving away one of the following with August issue on sale 4th July.
Balance Me Balancing Face Moisturiser
Balance Me Pure Skin Face Wash
Balance Me Wonder Eye Cream
Balance Me Rose Otto Intensive Lip Salve

Welcome jennypennysaver to the challenge and yes you will find quite a few of us here that could rival boots, superdrug, debs and semichem combined .

No more UU's for me this month. So I am declaring 30 UU which is a new record high for me. June will be nowhere near this as I have gotten through most of my splutterers and am onto full size products.

Been a bit AWOL this month I'm afraid, life is keeping me busy. June will be even busier.

I have some INs:
Bourjois lip gloss in Rose chimeric (won in Glamour comp)
Bourjois nail varnish in pale purple (won in Glamour comp)
Natio skin kit x4 (won in Glamour comp)
Garnier Intensive skin x7 (sample)
Benefit The Porefessional (GWP)

And some OUTs:
Givenchy for her (sample) - WNB, didn't smell of much to be honest.
DKNY Delicious Night (sample) - definitely WNB, smelt horrible and clung to me all day so kept gagging at work!
Pantene Repair & Protect shampoo (sample) - Hard to judge but a sample sachet, but I have a whole bottle to use soon so we'll see!
Boots Essential aromatherapy sleep easy bath essence - WBA if they still sell it, lovely aroma of peppermint and nutmeg. I have the body lotion of it still to use.

I have one more UU to squeeze in for May

Avon Planet Spa Icelandic Mineral Water face cleanser (or something equally wordy) - so WNBA, didn't like this at all it was so drying! I had to slap on moisturiser straight away. I almost didn't cut this tube open because I knew there was loads in it but my inner miser took over!

I have the dregs of another Avon cleanser to finish and about quarter of a tube of cleanse & polish and I am determined to finish these before I open another face wash!

Haven't had loads of UU this month, but more UU than ins so I'm happy.

I knew I shouldn't have posted about the Glamour giveaway, I haven't won a blimmin thing yet!! :rotfl:

also declaring my final uu for May

S&G Breakfast scrub - this smells sooooo delicious, it's also a really great scrub, I don't need to buy again as I have more in the stash

also an in and an out - I subscribe to Glamour so received a free sample size of 'porefessional' - I've tried this in the past and really didn't get on with it so have given it away,. I'm not tempted by the other freebies so my cash is safe


see you on the June thread
happy pampering,xo

Very jealous would have loved the things you won instead I got eyelashes and nail wraps oh well.
