    UU - a mini Molton Brown Heavenly Gingerlilly shower gel, this was DH's. Smelled lovely but quite masculine hence why he was using it.

    Lucky you! All my things seem to be running out this month! Will have to go and get some more day cream soon and cleansing oil (but will only get the travel size to start with).

    Ooh that sounds like something I would like - I think I have that in the stash from a beauty box - will dig out when my current runs out.

    Two UU's this morning;

    Ojon conditioner - WNBA - didn't see it doing much for the price.
    Liza Earle Cleanse & Polish cleanser - 30ml size. WBA - I think I'm going to have to accept this is my HG cleanser and repurchse once I've used everything else.My skin feels so much calmer using this.

    Another UU Lacura Shimmering Day Cream 50ml. Would possibly buy again to use as a body lotion but not for my face. It just looks 'odd' on my face, would be better on someone who had really good skin - which I don't unfortunately! Looks good as a body lotion though, especially with a tan.

    Presently using a Neals Yard moisturiser that was a magazine freeby. Not loving it but will persevere until either it's used up or I unearth something else to try out.

  • Evening Ladies!!!

    I have not posted on here for what seems like ages - life just got in the way.

    Well, mum had her surgery for breast cancer almost four weeks ago now - she is doing amazing. I truly can't believe just how well she is. She was at the gym last week - only did 15 mins on the bike, but crickey!!! I'm thinking that's positive thinking!

    Also, she seems to have found a desire to show 'anyone' who asks her 'new boob'. Almost happend at the tills in Waitrose last week - it was one of her friends asking, not a total stranger. Before I knew it, those five little words were out 'do you want to see?' and she was ready to flash!!! It's just not the Waitrose way. TBH I'm sure she would of shown a total stranger, she's soooo proud.

    I will try to do better to keep up with the thread next month. I'm off on my jollies next week - Vegas Baby!! Getting so excited about it now that I know mum is OK.

    Just wanted to say thankyou to all you lovely people who sent me good wishes through a really tough time - you kept me going and I really can't thank you all enough :D
