    Oh yeah, and a UU: Baptiste Diva dry shampoo.

    WIBA? Yes, although I think I prefer the tropical smell.

    Another UU to report - 400ml bottle of pantene repair and protect shampoo. WIBA? I already have 3 400ml bottles in my stash and once those are gone I might buy it again I'm not sure. It's a good shampoo but really I need a shampoo for coloured hair.

    My Aussie conditioner is due to be finished soon too. Probably got 1-2 uses left in it.

    It's great - after 10 outs I can see some room developing in my toiletries cupboard. I haven't seen any space in there for many moons and it's a good feeling.

    Welcome to the thead, 10 outs already is a great achievement.

    Welcome to Caterina, Pinkphoenix and melh1979 also.

    I am so happy right now. I had 3 boxes of products under the bed and i know that I will never use them so I didn't bother listing them in my stash list. Well I have sold them all!!! I think there were 75 items in total !!! So not only do i get to clear out, but I can now put that money onto my handbag purchase as I have officially reached over 400 UU's. :):)
    Oh happy sunny day :)

    Congratulations.:T:T

    Three ins:
    REN vetiver v7 hand and body cream 15ml
    REN active 7 radiant eye gel 5ml
    REN hydra-calm global protection day cream 15ml

    I'm counting today as day four this month with no purchases as the above are, by popular opinion, clearly a loophole.

    Well done to everyone else who resisted purchases. Good luck to maddiemay and willowbee on your no spends month.

    Re Soap and Glory I still like their products even flakeaway and hand food which seem to be the most hated products on the thread. I've only used one large tub of flakeaway, which seemed to last forever, but liked it; have since used a mini of sugar crush which I prefer though...less scrubby but gorgeous smell, so may not purchase flakeaway again. I still really like hand food, haven't had any go off although I did have one tube which upon starting had the correct consistency and colour but just smelt greasy, Boots exchanged this for me. Will definitely repurchase hand food but want to try some other brands too.

    I love Soap and Glory stuff but hate their conditioners - useless! Flakeaway is lovely to sniff and really works on my skin.

    Need to at some point get round to seeing my friend for coffee and donating to her my bottles of Herbal Essences Tousle Me Softly - if anything it made my naturally wavy hair straighter! Naff.

    A UU - Dove shower cream 'bought' through the Tesco DTD last year :D so WBA but sadly no longer such a good offer
    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.
    Take time but don't waste time
