Another UU this evening!

Dove Go Fresh body wash in nectarine and white ginger fragrance - lovely smell to this, very nice for summer time!

I notice on you sig you are saving for a house deposit, I can't believe people are expected to save tens of thousands of pounds for a deposit, it seems nigh on impossible. DH and I are in our second house since moving in together and we bought this one 10 years ago with a deposit of £2500. How things have changed in such a short time. Truly hope you manage to achieve it.

UU

Tropic Skin Revive Firming Nourshing Cream - WNBA, nice enough and very fresh feeling but too expensive!
Dermalogica Intensive Eye Repair, 4ml - WNBA as too expensive but a very lovely eye cream . Lovely scent and really kept my under eyes moisturised

INS

Sanctuary Peptide Transformation Serum, 3.5ml
Sanctuary Thermal Rose Clay Mask, 7ml

Agreed! When we bought our first house 3 years ago we stumped up £16k for a deposit, saved over years of frugal living, and renting in a damp/draughty flat in a dodgy area. The housing market is insane when you're trying to get on it.

A few last minute UUs and INs from me:

UU:
Superdrug Dead Sea purifying face mask (from my Sunshine Swap buddy, very nice, loads of it in there and left my skin feeling smooth)

IN:
Veet summer holiday kit (£3.50):
Veet Easygrip ready-to-use wax strips
Veet read to use wax strips
Veet Hair minimising body moisturiser
L’Occitane Verdon fresh shower water (freebie)
V&R Flowerbomb perfume sample (freebie)


And a small piece of good news - due to my careful rearranging of my debts I'm now out of my overdraft for the first time in almost 3 years. Well chuffed

**tracey**

I have a few more uu's to report

L'Occitane hand cream 75ml - wba if I didn't have loads of hand cream in my stash already. Think this is my hg handcream.

Frizz Ease 3 day straight - wba but I had another one in my stash. Love this stuff as it really calms my hair.

Wondercollie - I hope that your toe heals really quickly **hugs**

Kaz - good to see you back Glad to hear that you had such a lovely time :beer:


I haven't been awake long. Crazy sleep patterns to blame. I have my incapacity benefit review tomorrow :eek: :eek: :eek: I'm dreading it. Front page news on The Independent today about how broken/unfair the system is. Also Panaroma and C4 Dispatches exposed how ridiculous/rotten it is (about a month ago). Not hopeful but very grateful to have this forum to come to as a happy place, even the day after realising how much more stuff I have to use up! :rotfl:

Should be feeling bad about toiletry chaos but instead am cheered by each and every one of you

:A:A:A Thank you :A:A:A

Wondercollie - get better soon!

Kaz - welcome back! I miss the florida sun (lived there for 2 years before moving here to the uk)

Willowbee - GOOD LUCK TOMORROW :: HUGSSSSS::::


Super annoyed today as I bought a pair of shoes from ebay and they do not fit. They were quite expensive too as they are meant to be one of those comfy shoes for those who are on their feet all day (which I am), and now the seller won't refund me my money back, even tho the shoes are definitely more of a size 7 than a 6 So now I'm out of money and still don't have proper shoes and my feet are KILLING me everynight

ok vent over.

No IN's and no UU's today

indiepanda

One UU - Aveda personal blends shampoo. Can't buy again as it was long since discontinued and their madder root shampoo is a good alternative, been using that for years, one of my HG.
