    After another recommendation please ladies - off to the races next weekend and in rather desperate need of a tan, I usually use St Tropez but was toying with the idea of Clarins self tanning gel which seems to have good reviews, especially as Boots have an offer of a 1000 AP with any two Clarins products - any opinions please?

    ( I have no toiletries news at all, just popped in to say this :D)

    Actually this has been a terrible month for UU for me, I best go put on some more body lotion or something!

    My aunt has used the Clarins one for years and recommended it to my mum, who also liked it. My mum isn't really into a lot of make up or fake tan and it didn't go streaky on her. :)

    Personally I find St Moriz at £2.99 to be as good as any fake tan I've used!

    Another out.

    I discovered a bottle of Eucerin DermoPurifyer cleanser in my stash. This is completely unsuitable for my skin. I can only assume it was a gift with purchase or maybe I went a bit mental in Boots. Anyway, I am chucking it.

    11 outs, 3 ins.

    UU no. 55 :dance:

    Olay Regenerist Serum (15ml)

    WNBA as it didn't seem to do anything but it was very old so maybe my fault rather than Olay's...

    (My Elie Saab 'reward' perfume has been dispatched but I have 45 more UUs to finish before I can spritz it. :o I'll have to hide it from myself :rotfl:)

    Morning all. Bobbed on to check my emails cos didn't get the chance yesterday. Had some mailings from TBS (offered 40% off - thing is that I find these easy to ignore now as they seem to constantly have offers on) and Debenhams. Have ignored them as I am planning on going to JL at weekend to see what the Elemis GWP is. Does anyone know? timetospa have a GWP offer on but the freebies on there are mostly shower gel/bath type products rather than skincare. Am hoping this is not going to be the same on offer at JL but have a feeling it will be.

    QVC have also sent me the monthly newsletter with a picture of what I think is the OPI TSV. Have to stay strong as there are three colours I really like the look of but I did promise MrM I wouldn't buy it.

    My Metro Chic arrived yesterday. Will wear this at weekend.

    Happy belated birthday to Itzybitzy and And. Have a good day everyone. Getting nearer to the end of the week.
    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!

    I have bought a subscription to Glamour - £6 for 6 issues, to include 2 x Nails Inc nail varnishes and also the Benefit cover gift next month. :D
    Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
    Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.
