    Have two uu

    Herbal Essence Beautiful Ends Intensive Conditioner - This is DD's conditioner but we have a lot of pots in the stash so I finished this pot off as it had been open a long while - really lovely stuff and makes her long hair easier to comb through.

    Lush Dream Cream - WBA, this was used on DD for her eczema, we got the really bad breakout under control with steriod cream and I used this once a day. I need to get to a Lush shop to replace but they are miles away from me.

    I swore by Dream Wash and Dream Cream too when my skin was bad, I found Dream Wash a bit tricky to use in the shower, difficult scooping some out of the pot without filling it up with water, but so worth the hassle. I must find out if there is a LUSH shop anywhere around here (26 miles to nearest reasonable size town, and there isn't one there, although as I know what I like I could do mail order (have a lot of things to UU first though:eek:)

    I love Bath and Body Works Sweet Pea fragrance as well. We need a BBW over here!!

    Don't rate the BS scrubs either. I find them too chalky.

    Have just repainted my nails. Fancied something vampy yet glittery so have dug out my old OPI Holiday Glow. Was bored so looked it up and am amazed that it was from 2009 Holiday collection.Still applying well too.

    Such a shame they shut them all down:( Can't see them coming back now through! That BS scub is nearly gone already and only used it twice, there's probably one more use left:eek:
    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

    Evening everyone, catching up on this week's news as usual!

    Jimmy Choo Flash EDP sample.

    So 12 outs and 8 ins ... at least overall it's a net out!!

    Hope you all enjoy the rest of the weekend! x

    Ooooo I got a whiff of this in B**ts the other day and I really liked it. I must be strict with myself and resist. This is one of my "problem" areas.

    Going to see Example tonight so a pamper session this afternoon is on. Meeting my pal for dinner then into town for the concert. Looking forward to seeing him live.

    Hi everyone. Weather has been gorgeous here today too. Am just posting quickly on my nexus while waiting for my compote to bake. Have been to Boots and bought the Smash box eyeliner palette I planned for with my gift card. They had offer - buy two items get 750 AP. Would have been rude not to as they had a set of lipglosses reduced from £21 to £14. So came away with £10 on my Boots card. V please d. X
    Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!

    FINALLY...a February UU. I thought I was going to get to the end of the month without a single one at the rate I was going! :eek:

    Soap and Glory Eye Maintenance Gel (15ml). WIBA? Well, I have another one from the mad days when I bought two sets of S&G on special offer within a short period of time, so there's no need, but I must admit that I haven't noticed it making any difference, really. I'm not sure how much of a difference there is to make, although it does feel a bit stingy when I put it on my upper eyelid (don't worry - it's not leaking into my eye or anything).

    Another one crossed off the list. I may finish my shower gel this month as well.

    Slowly, slowly, catch a monkey (or reduce a huge toiletries stash! ;))

    UU an Aussie shine 3 minute mask sample today. Would like to get again but i think i will wait until i get some points on my card rather than pay outright for it.

    A very delayed entry into this months thread! Thanks Itzybitzy for getting us started :)

    UU:
    Body Shop Raspberry Body Butter - love this! WBA
    Body Shop Chocomania Body Butter - WNBA, the smell is a bit sickly. I'm surprised as really loved the scent of the Chocomania shower gel.
    Avene Cold Cream Shower Gel 250ml - WNBA, nothing special.

    IN:
    Neals Yard Citrus Handwash

    Am slowly working through things, and don't feel like buying toiletries! Hurrah! I think my addiction has switched to kitchen gadgets (I have a serious problem with plastic containers) & healthy food!
  • UU Elemis Monoi body oil WBA really loved this but have got the bloom one and a bodyshop oil so no need to buy yet.

    UU mini shower oil from the LIB Advent calendar (can't remember the name if it!) but it really did wake you up very strong smelling but didn't lather or anything so still felt the need to use showergel as well.

    Belated birthday wishes to Valm and hope Moromir you are recovering ok?
