    Willowbee think you've done really well this month, don't feel like I've done very well.

    I have a UU Maybelline Dream Fresh BB - light 1ml not sure about this yet.

    I have been a bad girl I have placed another order with REN. I promise to do better next month, the only things I'll need are body spray (unless I find some more somewhere) and some more Green Balm (its a total necessity and only a tiny bit left in my little pot). So those are the only things I'm allowed to buy next month.

    I blame it on a horrid day at work.

    i just had another REN order all ready to be checked out and clicked off it. this month has been bad enough without adding yet more INs, especially when i know august will be horrific. i'll be hitting sephora with a vengeance next thursday evening!:dance: (although if anyone asks, I'm totally just trying to keep myself busy and awake to counteract the effects of jet lag :rotfl:)
  • hello ladies -
    how is everyone handling the heat?? LOL!
    I'm dying over here. I guess my body has finally adjusted to british weather.

    UU:
    Aveda daily hair repair - last sample tube :(:(:(
    really enjoyed it, but right now the price is too steep for me to buy the full size with.

    Tons of splutterers....even perfume splutterers :)
    Can't wait to finally get some more UU's

    No IN's that I purchased, but a friend just gave me 8 nail varnishes. Yikes, my drawers are overflowing lol
    No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries Challenge
    TOTAL UU's in 2012: 588
    Total UU's in 2013: 210
    INS for 2013 starting March: 8

    SuiDreams - sorry to hear that you had a horrid day at work :( I hope that tomorrow is better. :) I do wonder if this is an especially good REN offer as they seem to be pushing to reach a larger audience (judging by the Red magazine giveaway being at the same time). I hope you enjoy whatever you ordered.

    evilsquid - I'm totally jealous that you're going to Sephora! How exciting (though not v good for this challenge :rotfl:) Have you seen this vid? http://www.viviannadoesmakeup.com/sephora-haul-giveaway/
    I would jump at the chance to buy a mini Tarte blusher :)

    Itzybitzy - if I came across Stila stuff for £1 I think that I'd go a bit mad too :rotfl:

    Tokkiandoliver - boooooo! to you finishing the last of your Aveda daily hair repair. :( I've been keeping my eyes peeled for any offers that pop up for you. :)

    Thank you ladies, you're all so kind.

    Questions:

    1- At the moment I am currently a graduate but in September I will start my PGCE course at the University of Cambridge, so a year after I will be a teacher.

    2- Ideal holiday home would be in Krakow, Poland because I love the country.

    Hope everyone is spiffing :D

    Considering everything that has happened, I'm doing ok, thank you SuiDreams. I managed to get up and dressed today for the first time in a week. :j

    I really hope that your REN orders arrive soon. Maybe you'll get both tomorrow? Exciting! :) :j
