No buying unecessray toiletries in July

SuiDreams

Willowbee hugs for tomorrow

SuiDreams

Was hoping for some more UU, but unfortunately no movement on that front, but think the body butter will be UU before the end of the month. Don't really like it and desperate to get the REN body lotion opened.

How did you get that? I might be persuaded to break my no buy for that!:eek:

1 costs £25 but buy 2 which is £50 and there's a code for £25 off a £50 spend, so total now is = £25 (there's also a free mini shampoo or conditioner for spending over £5 ) and also free delivery, plus 12% back through topcashback, which was £3 so total price was £22!! :rotfl:
Even I couldn't resist that! :T

Trying to catch up as I am having a night in tonight. Cardiff is great and I am having a lovely time.

Fiasco - I got mine from a health food shop near me, DH lovingly calls it the hippy shop and refuses to go anywhere near it :rotfl: i found it on the net here (but if you click to it through beauty bible you get a 5% discount). it was cheaper than this in the health food shop though. I cant remember if i've seen it Holland and barrett or not or if it was just the independent ones, if you are near/in Manchester Unicorn and 8th Day both sell it. if you give it a bit of a rub on wet skin you get a brilliant thick lather from it, better than all the other SLS free ones i've tried.

Congratulations Maddiemay!!! :j:j:beer::beer:

the daily questions are a good idea!

For a living: I'm a paralegal in a family department.

Holiday home: abroad would have to be New York. def in my dreams though, id never be able to afford one! in the UK mine would also be the lakes. Prob a little cottage somewhere with a real log fire and crazy little rooms and annexes




I'm saving this for my holiday, I'm hoping its good!



WOW well done!

Thanks evilsquid I am defo interested in trying this.

hi everyone not posted in ages!! my use up total is now at 270 for the year. nothing special finished since the last time i posted-some deoderant.urban decay mascara-on to benefit stuff etc. i think my next use ups will be a foundation and a perfume but will see.... might have another clear out as like having empty spaces/being able to fit stuff into smaller storage areas-still have a long way to go until the minalist stage! x

:T:T:TWell done 270 in a year is a great achievement.:T:T:T

So my dream holiday homes UK - Brighton area or south Wales. Abroad - USA probably Las Vegas or Seattle

My style depends on what role I am in. For work daytime, I wear a lot of day dresses and smart separates. Don't really do suits. For work night time or during holiday programmes when I am working with young people I tend to go for nice tops and jeans. For nights out again I love dresses. Big on accessories and have far too many bags, shoes, boots, scarves and jewellery.

It is my birthday on Thursday and I have received a few gifts in advance. L'occitane shower gel duo vanilla and an Elemis gift set :j. I have had a few UUs already.

No7 facial wipes - WBA really like this
Nivea cream freebie - not sure if I would buy this as it doesn't slot into any particular use in my skin care routine.
Ultra swim conditioner - WNBA. Hated this and has taken me years to shift it. Finally ended up using it as shave gel.
Right guard deodorant -WBA, really love the smell of this and works with my sensitive underarms.
No7 body wash - WMBA, smelled nice and does the job well but it is priced too high for what it is.

Sorry for the long post.

Willowbee

Long post are often really interesting, Fiasco

V jealous if you find Stila goodies in Poundland! :rotfl:

I keep forgetting to say that I bought Dr Bronners in Waitrose in a flurry of excitement (ages ago ) but still haven't tried it. I might try a silk hand wash with it...

I loved Cardiff when I visited it (my bf at the time worked for the Beeb there). Very nice memories

SuiDreams and VALM - thank you for thinking of me/tomorrow. It was really lovely to read :A My brother is home now and we had a nice evening as a family gradually sorting things out for tomorrow. We're all hopeful that it will be a nice day (though it looks like it's going to be meltingly hot). My bro and I are taking bets on how often we hear people say '103'! It's quite sad not to be able to tell people how extraordinary our Grandma was anymore

Anyhow. I've taken my sleep meds and set my alarm (getting up and ready will be the hardest bit of the day for me). My OH is all set to turn up early (we've told him 30 mins earlier, just in case, as timekeeping isn't his best point! :rotfl:) It's nice to read this cheery board just before I drift off to sleep.

Oh! I have a UU! I'd forgotten what that felt like! :rotfl:

REN Vetivert Hand & Body Cream - WNBA as I prefer the Neal's Yard Vetivert Lotion and I think it's cheaper.

Have to say that I'm a bit in love with REN though and their customer service is v good (they helped me out of a wrong order muddle)

Whoops! I thought I was just writing a short response. :rotfl:

Maddiemay - I'm pleased that you went for the REN offer. So many lovely things to try and I have a suspicion that they won't be having new offers every week, so we should be safe for a while :rotfl:

Asset - I went a bit 'red mist' over how amazing your BS deal was. When I clicked through I was spared the battle with my willpower as it was out of stock. Just as well in my case! :eek: Super deal though :T

Willowbee

I thought that I'd better check in case I was misleading anyone and now it's back in stock :wall::wall: or :dance: depending on your point of view!

Bedtime for me...

Hope today goes well willowbee xxxx

Good luck for today Willowbee.

Question for today; (if it's not too cheeky to ask 2 days running )
Do you turn the map when you're trying to read it or do you hold it the "right" way up and then figure out your location even if it's upside down (IYSWIM?).
Me, I turn the map, it's far easier to navigate when the map is facing in the direction you're going in!

Ha neither, I can't read maps :eek: I use the sat nav if I'm in the car or maps on my iPhone if I'm walking!

Best wishes for today Willowbee.

I turn the map if it is a tricky bit to follow. Use Satnav, but live in the country, so maps are better for the detail. Always try to have a map handy, OH used to tow our folding camper and now we have a big(ish) motorhome and would never rely on the Satnav if there was a road closure/accident. (Grass growing up in the middle type of roads):eek::eek:
