  • when I got my bathroom redone a few months ago my son bought me a very nice and very expensive china hand wash dispenser. I managed to drop it yesterday and have ordered a new one which will hopefully arrive before he visits again.

    I also don't have any handwash. I have a horrible mix of various lavender bubble baths but when I get the new dispenser I am going to decant some of the giant S and G shower gel into it and use that as hand wash. Otherwise I think it will last forever! I don't mind using it as hand wash but I am so bored with it as shower gel!

    Another UU today - Herbal Essence green conditioner - WBA especially as I got this at 68p!
  • Another 2 uu's last night

    Frizz ease shampoo - wba, it was quite nice and it managed to tame my frizzy hair.
    Ren sensitive cleanser - mnba, it was ok but not worth the money that a full size one would cost me.

  • UU: Royal jelly lip balm - wnba too oily.

    Hello everyone! Going to catch up once again to all the posts. I've returned to work this week and already feeling deflated. I need a new job and quickly, but the job market is so horrible and I can't leave this job until I have another :(

    I feel like I want to splurge and splurge big just to get some immediate gratification - MUSt...STAY...STRONG....

    I decanted some of the S&G bubble bath into an empty hand wash bottle yesterday and it makes a lovely hand wash! I don't have a bath and couldn't face using it as shower gel as Clean on Me was such a LHJ. :eek:

    I had a little one that had never been opened but when I opened it it seemed to have gone 'off'. I used it as a handwash and it has been fine.

    A couple more uu here

    Champneys hand and nail cream, lovely hand cream, wba but don't need to yet as have another in the stash. Have replaced it for now with an already open BS hemp hand protector, I find this to be a LHJ so will use it as foot cream too when my current one runs out.

    Next Just Pink EDT - WMBA, I quite like this but have stacks of others to use before I buy anything else. Moving onto an already open Chloe Narcisse which I stopped using to use the Next one as I had matching items which needed using up.

    For anyone that is interested Escentual are doing a third off French pharmacy skincare. A good discount if you use any of these brands.
