Hi Ladies.

A few more uu to report, I am really on a roll at the moment:

M&S Per Una EDT and Per Una Body spray - WBA, nice fragrance and a good price. Moving onto an already opened Chloe Narcisse.

BS Rainforest Radiance shampoo - mini size - wba as I really liked this.

Have been round the charity shops today looking for a tennis racket for my DS and one of them had S&G Clean Girls in a full size, Mist you Madley Spray and The Daily Smooth, all full size and £1.50 each. It made me chuckle. BTW I didn't buy them.

Did buy a brand new Visconti leather purse for £1,had a look online and this one seems to be £28.99. Wow, I am very pleased. Had no idea about the full price I just liked it.

Also outs today aswell, Olay Aqua Physics day cream, night cream and serum, these were all from the Tesco DTD of last year. Gave them all to my mum as I am avoiding certain ingredients.

afternoon ladies, hope you are well

uu Ren vetyver hand/body lotion - this was one of the freebies from Red, not that impressed tbh, wasn't keen on the scent and didn't find it particularly moisturising, so wnba, although it was nice to be able to try it.


happy pampering, xo

Placed my Avon order with nothing for me. There was a good GWP offer of a NV, lippy and TS serum (or similar) in a nice bag, free with 2 purchases of make up. Got DD a mascara for her b'day at the end of August along with a lippy, and she will get the GWP too.
Also got son a moisturiser as he remarked at Christmas that this would be the most useful thing I could get him.
I also added a little fundraising pin for breast cancer to my order, will probably give this to DD too as I'm not a brooch wearer usually.
All products are slowwwly being UU'ed ... I quite like the Avon foot souffle, alternating this with Aldi cream as I want that to last.

Have new brand of mouthwash to trial and the initial taste is foul, bitter like potassium citrate, the cystitis treatment. Unfortunately I can't let you know what it is, but I will do when it comes on the market and the trial is over!

On the plus side the horrible taste doesn't linger like some other products - Corsodyl notably. When I use that I can't eat or drink anything for two hours or so afterwards, as Corsodyl taints it.

And, can you remember which Avon campaign number you are on, I am a rep but you get offers which are not in my current brochures? TIA

2 UU this week:

sure deodorant spray- WBA- sticking to this from now on! May buy another as it seems to be on offer everywhere (but wasn't when I ran out!). I don't count this as part of the stash as I use it.

avon clearskin thermal mask-WBA- cut this open and it had dried out. Quite liked it as it heats up on the skin and leaves my skin really soft.

The weather here is hit and miss so I'm staying in and watching some I love Lucy:rotfl:

And-thank you for reminding me, I wanted to order the breast cancer pin from Avon. I don't even have a flick through the brochures anymore! :T I might have a look out for an eyeliner which I use everyday and want to get another of. Knowing my luck it has been discontinued!

Hi! Just to say if anyone else is tempted by the Cheap Beauty Deals in this week's email - dont bother with one of the Glamour magazine's freebies - balance Me Rose otto intensive lip salve.

I bought the mag to try the lip salve - as I like rose scented stuff - and it is horrible - its going straight in the bin. Second ingredient on the list on the back is "ricinus communis (castor) oil" and boy does it taste like it!!!:eek:

Really revolting - had to wipe it off my lips instantly. Don't know if anyone out there like this - but I hated it! Only glad it came free with a £2 mag - and that I hadn't splashed out lots of cash on it...
Real shame as I wanted to find a petroleum free lip salve....but it isn't going to be this one!!!!!
Be warned......:money:

superbargainhunter: Thanks! I was tempted but I hate lip balms with a strong taste.

Some more UUs and INs. One of them was a bit of a splurge in an attempt to sort out my skin!

UUs:

Liz Earle skin tint sample sachet in light: WNB, this smelt horrible!

Jergens Ultra Hydrating intensive hand cream: this was ok but Neutrogena is my HG so WNBA.

Soap and Glory Heel Genius: I liked this, I preferred the smell of this to the normal sweet S&G scent. This is the 4th item from the Big Splendour kit that I've UUed. The scrub will be next, hopefully followed by Clean on Me, that stuff will not die!!!

Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection concealer: WBA, this is fantastic and cheap. Purchased again today!

INs:

Emma Hardie Moringa Cleansing Balm: I can't believe I've spent this much on a cleanser (now kicking myself for not getting the TSV back in May) but it's divine!

No7 Cleansing Balm for dry/very dry skin: bought with £5 voucher so only cost £4.

Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection concealer: bought with Boots points. I've a Bourjois one to UU first but it's not as good!

Sorry, no, the brochure was collected today. I can't even remember what was on the cover. The special offer was called a 'Beauty Bonus' if that's any help. It's due to be delivered August 2nd.

thank you scrappie for taking the time to reply.
My lovely BF got the dates wrong and it's actually next Thursday, just as well he called and checked or would have looked rather silly.
Away to catch up with the rest of the thread, I have no more UUs or INs but lots of thing spluttering.
Hope everyone is having a lovely weekend.
