A couple of in's to report - its my birthday today and my mum bought me Benefit That Gal (got the sample last month and really liked it) and she always gets me a magazine for my birthday stocking so I have Red and the REN set now :>

:bdaycake: Happy Birthday moromir - hope you are having a fab day.

Couple of more outs

• Nails Inc Henley - part of a set and me and the colour never got on - WNBA
• No7 Coconut Ice - Think this is now too old and the colour is going on with a yellow tinge. I am not rocking the nicotine stained nail look!

I do have another UU to - Elle Macpherson Start the Day Body Wash. WMBA if the price is right. Did the job well enough but I am after a change now. I have looked out a 400ml Feragamo shower gel which will be a LHJ.

Today I have TA:
1. some OLD Simple Cleansing Water (was so not "water" like, more gloopy stuff - definitely time to TA!) :rotfl:
2. some Tesco hand sanitiser as the bottle had got squashed and was half dried out - why on earth it was still on the shelf I don't know!

Also rinsed out some "empty" bottles that weren't quite out but were too empty to use any more (why I manage to have these I don't know) so also put the following bottles in the recycling:
3. Clinique Mild Facial Soap Pump;
4. Clinique 7 Day Scrub tube;
5 & 6. TWO (!!!) Radox shower gel bottles - both stimulate (the red one) - my HG of shower gels as it always wakes me up and smells amazing!
7. Head & Shoulders Itchy Scalp Conditioner - nightmare to get out of the bottle at the end!

So now there is some space in the bathroom! Might go through and see if I can combine a few half used products & re-assign them for other cleaning duties!

Also have 2 INs from this weekend:
1. was a GWP - balance Me balancing facial moisturiser that came free with this months Glamour - smells nice but not sure if it suits my skin...;
2. was a pack of skintherapy face wipes from Sainsbury's - not an unnecessary purchase as I am almost out of current pack of St. Ives wipes, but a toiletries purchase none the less!

Painted my nails this last week too so another bit of nail varnish and base/top coat used.

Hope everyone has had a lovely weekend and didn't get too wet! Here's to another week of UU's and not purchasing things!!! :beer:

That's me at the moment. Dreading work this week, its set to be a tough one so I've got that dreaded Sunday Night Feeling Will try and focus on the positive!

I am with you on Sunday Night Feeling, it normally hits me with some force about 7 o'clock :eek: Happily I have tomorrow off so I still have gleeful weekend feeling at the moment :rotfl:

I have UU some makeup!!

Maybelline Mousse Blush in Dolly Pink - this lasted for ever, I thought it would finish 2 months ago! WNBA, I will move onto one of my many other blushers or perhaps even bronzer since it is technically summer :rotfl:

End of Day 8 and still no ins, and my mum dragged me round Home Bargains today. I had to march through the toiletries aisle without looking at anything, I did have a good browse through the sweets instead!

(Sorry for snipping the bits I wanted to reply to!)

:eek: to the Cleansing Water!! I'm glad you didn't try to use that one up!

Today I managed to wash my make up brushes so that used up a little bit of a cheapy shampoo I don't want to use on my hair! I should do that more often, but it's such a pain waiting on them to dry.

I painted my nails as well today, its the first time in weeks I've done it and I have so many varnishes. Still have bare toes, I'm just too lazy :rotfl:

happy birthday M !!

Hugs to everyone else, just cos really

few Ins to report - the Balance me moisturiser and eye cream - quite like them so far...

the REN set - not opened that yet - am waiting till ive used the balance me (bought these cos am still searching for my HG moisturiser)

the gradual tan thing with the other magazine as well, though think ive got the wrong shade - ah well

got to the field today to find Grape sporting a large wound on a back leg - luckily its missed everything important so hopefully it will just be irritating and expensive (for me)rather than life threatening for her. Had my boss out to sort it out though - and while we were doing it I got burnt - so the months ive spent carefully not getting strap lines are !!!!!!ed !!!

Hello everybody- I have to catch up with reading the thread so just reporting some uu's and some non bought ins:

Uu's

Benefit laugh with me leelee perfume- WNBA although this was a nice fresh citrusy smell and gorgeous bottle it's not really me (was a present)

Super dr perricone bright eyed eye cream 4 xsachets. WNBA as I like the alpha h eye treatment better

Apivita pink clay mask WBA, it was lovely not too expensive and made my skin clear and glowy

Ins

My husbands friend gave me a birthday present yesterday ( birthday was 4 months ago!!) of some lush things

2 x bath bombs
1 x buffy (what is this??? I don't normally shop in lush and this has been gift wrapped with no instructions) smells lovely though!

Am off to read the last few pages, hope everyone is doing well

Oh Dear God... re Grape. When I saw you posting so late I got a bit of a dread feeling, so I'm relieved it's a recoverable wound. At least the slightly cooler weather may help. TG it wasn't worse.

Absolutely zero news on the toiletries front, but I haven't succumbed to any more freebies. Got a month's supply of laundry liquid to trial though... Oh hang on. Ordered a couple of things from Avon and that's in this coming week. Things I don't already own, I hasten to add.

Belated Happy Birthday Moromir!

Buffy is a combined body butter and scrub, you use it in the shower, just rub the bar over any bits you want to scrub, then rub the scrub in.

I've had it quite a few times and it's better than any runny scrub in a tube I've had at doing the job, maybe more like a salt scrub in a jar in terms of effectiveness, and leaves your skin softer - don't need a moisturiser afterwards.

I have a couple of questions - one a newbie question - what does TSV stand for?

The other one is about a product I've started to use again which has sat on the shelf for a while. It's Lancome Flash Bronzer - it's a self tan with bronzer combined for the face. I've used it a couple of times and I can't see any difference in the colour of my face this morning - can the self-tan ingredients stop working if you keep things for too long?

On the positive front, been more conscious of applying hand cream and cuticle oil over the weekend and my hands are looking and feeling much better for it.

came down to find D(????)H had eaten all the chocs left in the box that DS2 gave ME on saturday:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:after saying he was not hungry last night.he is away again tonight and I was looking forward to a little treat :(:(:(:(:(
painted nails orange whilst watching tennis(read in a mag it made you look younger but not sure why!)felt exhausted just watching Andy!so with orange nails we decided at last min(waiting to see when tennis would end) we went dancing.Put 1 skirt on but had to change as it was falling down due to weight loss:)
Off for my Decleor facial today,£30 to spend on products but they look very expensive online and not sure what to have,can't remember if I have to buy two things.
sold a few bits on ebay and have a lot of interest in some Laura Ashley fabric thta ihave had for years and never got round to using.
hope everyone is okay,looks like another wet week ahead:(:(:(
