    I have another UU - Benefit B-Spot perfume - just a sample size but WBA :D I still have a full sized one to use first though!

    Think I will have an early night, it is so cold here, sitting with a blanket wrapped round and hot water bottle, even though the hetaing is on. :o
    Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
    Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.
    Take time but don't waste time
  • Ok so do I need to be listing ins and outs preferably with no ins as I have enough to last a few months at least? Xx

    Yesss, & it may help to list all your current stash to further fuel your commitment to the no ins pledge :D xx
  • Now I'm looking on LIB:eek: By the way, I see the Editor's favs has steam cream in, a friend got me this off his airline and I love it, kinda think it smells a bit like the Liz Earl botanics range.
    Debt free and busy treating myself:)

    No more toiletries/make up until I've used what I've got stashed since Jan 2011, graduated October 2012. Restocked Dec 13..damn those sales

    You've just 'made' me add that link to my favourites. You're a bad influence. This thread is like going to AA (Alcoholics Anonymous, not the Automobile Association!) and then going to the pub for a drink afterwards! :rotfl:

    I had been loking at this last night and realised that I could buy the Editors Choice for a few pence less than the individual 4 items I have on my wish list from the Luxury Samples, having decided against the Revitalash I think I will go for this - prepare naughty step for occupation:rotfl:

    Sorry ladies :o now you know why I have so many samples to work through!! :whistle: I''ll try to behave in future!! :rotfl:
    No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.

    A bit less guilt from my direction, I bought 1 LIB box last Summer and get all the e-mails, nothing has really appealed to me all this while, until yesterday, but from the Editors Box I have wanted to try Steam Cream, No Foundation Foundation, Trilogy Oil and I loved the E-Spa I bought last year, and their samples go a long way. Order placed, cushion at the ready for naughty step. TBH I have not generally gone for BB's as the majority of the products would not have suited my skin and hair type, so I am happy to buy 1 or 2 a year from LIB.

    Hugs to rogueylawyer and rosemary. xxx

    ...and a TA: TBS Passionfruit Body Butter. WIBA? I love the consistency and I love the smell, but by the time I had opened it it had pretty much already gone! To be fair, I'd had it for a good while, but it had never been opened and was still wrapped in its plastic. I've never had that with a Body Shop product before. I've finally admitted defeat...

  • A couple more UU:-

    - Jo Malone Red Roses Cologne. WIBA? Yes, I really love the smell of this. However, I have another bottle that's about a quarter full not to mention a large perfume stash in general so I won't right now.

    - CCS Heel Balm. WIBA? Maybe, it's ok but it's not a luxe choice. I have some more foot creams in the stash, at the moment my favourite is the L'Occitane one, but I won't need to buy a new one for some time anyway, and reckon I can UU some body butters on my feet too. (I have a LOT of body butters!).

    Anyone else finding the cold weather is playing havoc with their skin? Mine has gone horribly dry all of a sudden but worse than that it just looks a bit saggy. Did a facial this morning and afterwards put some of the Sanctuary face oil on which I would usually save for bed time, hoping it will help plump out my face again. It's the first time I've seen it with that look that fruit like peaches get when the fruit has turned soft and the skin has started to wrinkle.:o
