    Th cream was £12.50 for 40ml but you really don't need to use much. I've previously bought a tube of 8 hour cream to treat the eczema patches I get, so I guess for me it's cheap! It's a rich cream but sinks in quickly and cleared a thick scaled patch very quickly

    I tested the 8 hour cream at the airport a few years ago on my hand. By the time I got to Tenerife my hand had come out in a rash - good job I didn't buy it or put it on my face :eek:

    I'll bear the Avene cream in mind for when I 'allow' myself to buy something, been good so far this month and don't want to spoil it!

    BTW - latest S&G to emerge from the stash is Mist you madly and not girligo as previous stated - is that the one everyone has been complaining about making their floor slippy?
    .

    one of the S and G sprays is actually a body lotion, rather than a fragrance, but can't remember which one it is. I do know that I seemed to get it everywhere except my body, not just on the floor but I managed to get it in my eye once. Unfortunately my body's not easy to miss so don't know how that happened :eek:

  • Some quick UU to report pre going bed,
    Aquafresh Toothpaste 20ml - WMBA when the stash is lower.
    Hair dye - had some rootage it was payday so time to refresh!
    Avon - Mystic showergel, was actually quite dissapointed with this. Smelled lush in the bottle didnt really seem to smell much when i was using it however ended up using it up as bubblebath as it did seem to bubble half decent. WNBA

    Have a great week everyone :p

    Morning all. Grey and miserable morning here. I am mega busy today, working, packing up ebay parcels, baking bread and savoury muffins and doing a batch of homemade soup.

    Am very jealous of the people with the big advantage points collection, I think I have about £15.

    I resisted the L'occ QVC but really wanted the Almond shower gel but thought would my life be any different if I used my Dr Bronners almond shower gel instead - probably not.

    Have some ins from yesterday

    Too Faced Matte Pallette - I have wanted this for ages and now I have it, have used the day colours today and they blend super smoothly for matte shadows.

    Maybelline Gel eyeliner - had a quick dabble last night and the little brush that comes with it is great.

    Natural collection - Rosebud lipstick.

    Also have a uu

    nSPA gingerbread latte bath syrup - was quite nice but not very strong, I would use it again but wouldn't go out of my way to get hold of it.

    VALM - amazon were selling Benefit erase paste for £13 ish with free delivery, not sure if it is still that price as they seem to change regularly but quite a good saving if it is.

    I f any black haired but greying ladies would like my black hair mascara send me a pm with details,not impressed by Bertousse seems a strange thing to send unless you know the hair colour!Would have used it if it was the dark brown as stated on one side(french) of the pack but the english side said black and it was.:mad:

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Had 2 weeks off work not really doing much so I gave myself 2 facials and still there's only one UU!!

    UU - Avon Anew Reverlist day cream 15ml - WNBA but then again it was a gift in a pack. Didn't really suit my skin so I used as a body moisturiser!

    T/A Wet and wild lip liner x 2 - WNBA very horrible to apply and couldn't get the end to soften at all YUCK
    Collection 2000 gel eyeliner black - WNBA mainly because I never really used it and this is only being thrown away because I didn't put the lid on properly:rotfl:

    G/A Liz Erale deep cleansing mask -WNBA I prefer my Soap and Glory pore mask :)

    In's Soap and glory Scrub of your life x 2 HG
    Soap and Glory scrub your nose in it

    Have a happy Monday everyone :j

    *ears perk up*

    What advent calendar is this please? :)

    Edit: Oh I've just seen, it's the Latest in Beauty one. I can't get it half price without a code :( Is it just for regular customers?

    Thinking about it, it's for the best that I can't get the deal! I don't need more beauty things, just want them. Today will be a NSD :)

    2 UUs - Neutrogena Clean Normalising shampoo 27ml, WNBA - smells lovely but made my fine hair frizzy.

    Simple Pleasures Fresh Apple Shower gel/bath foam in one, 1000ml - WBA but only to use as a handwash.

  • and after being good all month and being nearly at another whole no buy month, ive just signed up to test for beauty bible again :o hoping it comes after the 5th as thats my cut off for a month of no beauty purchases! was one of those where if i didn't take the chance i might not get the chance to again so i went for it.

    Don't forget to post what you get to test - I did this for the green beauty bible and loved quite a few of the things I got to test. It was well worth doing.
    I have £96 of points on my Advantage Card...

    What are you going to treat yourself to - I save mine up to and then do an offer with a GWP when I 'need' something.

    I think that the body lotion one is Girligo - just managed to UU that one up and get it out of the house into the recycling. Quite liked the mist you madly this morning but it seems to be quite a large bottle so might be sick of it by the time it is finally UU - this one could be a LHJ I fear....
