WIBA? Absolutely not, it was terrible, just stuck to my hair and made it lumpy!
I've still got one stashed and i really really hate it. Threw the previous one away after two goes if was that bad.I will probably be out for the OPI shows today so will have to set Sky to record. Want to see the Minnie Mouse demos. I'm looking forward to the OPI Autum Winter collection due for release in October I think.
Oh thanks for reminder. I'm avoiding the MM set as i have too many OPI pinks and although i really want the pretty hearts i have Kleancolour Twinkly Love which is heart based and i never use it as its too much of a PITA.
Love watching the OPI shows tho.I'm so boring, my clothes wanna keep someone else warm, someone cooler0 -
Have just looked this up. You lot are such a bad influence. I don't even use Liz Earle products, would love to try them though. Will stay strong until the stash is significantly reduced. It does look like an amazing offer, but I was appalled at the thought of adding 11 whole products to my already huge collection:eek:...maybe I'm cured.:)
That's the way to think though isn't it? Do you really need or want 11 more things when you may already have loads of the same already? As I've said above marie2 these offers are coming around very quickly. Am proud of you for resisting for this reason. xSmashbox are in Boots already. I noticed a banner online the other day.
I am so hoping it will appear instore as well.kiss_me_now9 wrote: »UU my little Soap and Glory Glad Hair Day conditioner this morning - I say used up, I mean got frustrated with the tiny bit left at the bottom and chucked it outWIBA?

My daughter used to love this product but now we have switched to V05 Give me Moisture which is cheaper. I had to buy another bottle of the V05 shampoo yesterday as our current one that was only opened about a week ago is stood upside down and feeling very light. Could do with finding a litre sized bottle of it.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!

Emma especially wants the heart glitter one however I've seen a review on makeupalley.com saying it's a PITA plus I've seen demos on QVC before now (they had one of these last year as well) where it looked difficult to apply. Emma is 13 though and has more patience than me. Am glad I got this kit now. My intention was to buy her the set of minis but have just looked at this and it doesn't actually include the heart glitter one.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge.

Willowbee - thanks for that, I am not sure if he is trying to claim anything as yet. The whole situation is just awful, they have two children 16 and 8 and he is missing out on everything just about and my friend has a full time job and is doing everything else.
Valm - it was me with the undressed pallette, I am not sure if you can use them wet, if you see one don't hesitate if you think you want it because they sell out really quickly at first.
I am having problems with my skin at the moment, particularly on my temples and cheeks, it is so blocked and I can see loads of bumps under the skin. I am putting it down to the No7 P&P serum and the matching moisturisers, I used the serum for about 10 days and noticed that my skin was congested, I stopped using it but carrried on with day and night cream and now it is really bad. I had a look online yesterday for ingredients which are the worst culprits for spots and acne and went through my whole stash so there were a few things which I passed on to my mum and DH (face washes, moisturisers mainly).
I have now gone back to my beloved Clinique Moisture Surge for night and Oilatum Natural Repair cream for day so hope to see an improvement.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

Well, one day in and having written that I often fall into bed without taking my make up off, I managed to take it off despite not going to bed till two, and smothered my face in a sample of Clinique Moisture Surge which my face is thanking me for. I've also spent time this morning on my feet, using my emjoy micro pedi (which is fab) and slathering on foot cream to turn my hooves back into pretty feet.
I also managed a couple of UU
- Olay facial wipes. WIBA? Maybe, I tend to only buy for holiday use and I often use the £5 No 7 vouchers Boots give away to get theirs cheap.
- Dove grapefruit and lemongrass deodorant. WIBA? Yes, this is a repeat purchase, grapefruit is one of my favourite smells, complements some of my favourite perfumes.
PS thanks to all the lovely people who welcomed me to the thread, think this is going to make it so much easier to stick to my resolutions this time.0 -
Good morning ladies -
I did not purchase anything last night hahaha NPI all night long, geez I was really bit by the shopping bug yesterday, so luckily I just made out with 1 perfume (rrp £29 but paid only £14 b/c I had points). So phew.
Today I'm home from work (YAY!) and basically spending all day listing things up on my blog sale. I'm staying away from fleabay right now as their fees are just ridiculous!No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries Challenge

Wow this thread moves so fast!! Love and hugs to anyone that needs them (or wants them for that matter)!
Just popping in to report a UU - Boots gorgeous feet foot scrub 50ml. WIBA? Probably, nice and scrubby and moisturizing too. After I've used up the random foot products I already own though!! I have an unused pedi-egg that should do the job adequately lol.
And even more impressively, I have no INs this month so far either!!

Welcome to all the Newbies
Tokkiandoliver good luck with your blog sale
Hugs to all who need them
Thank you for all the lovely comments, I'm feeling a lot better today though my left leg and arm are still tender and shoulder is a bit stiff. Managed to make things worse on Friday night when struggling to find a comfortable position to sleep in managed to hit myself in the face and now have sore eye (I give you all permission to laugh at that one).
On the positive side I've had the most relaxing weekend I've had in ages and managed to catch up on some reading. Its been so nice to stay in and do nothing for once.
Well no more UU yet but Clarins cleanser has had to be cut open, so should be UU by the end of the week. Have used a face mask today as skin isn't great at the moment eating too much rubbish and not drinking enough water. Going to try and be healthier next week to see if it improves, could do with losing a little weight anyway.
Hope everyone has had a great weekend enjoy the rest of your Sunday.0 -
Having a bit of a cull today as I have a few too many older items that I just won't use. Gone so far:
- Bobby Brown Creamy Concealer Porcelain - WNBA - horrible stuff. Hated it after I first got it and put it away. Had to start reusing when my HG concealer was discontinued. Very happy to TA.
- Lancôme 9 shades pallet - I have used all of the colours I would wear so out it goes.
- Albert Bridge
- South Molton St
- Floral St
