    Have a tiny little uu

    L'occitane Pivoine Flora EDT, this was a 5ml free sample but it still lasted ages. WNBA, the first day I used it I could smell it for about half an hour and thought it was quite pleasant but after that I couldn't smell it at all even on the other days I used it.

    Hi all. Have 2 more UUs to declare:-

    15ml tube of Elemis Gentle Rose Exfoliator. Am pleased that this little tube has lasted me 2 months. Working on this usage I should have enough of this product in my stash for the year without the need to repurchase.

    200ml tube of Mark Hill Straightening shampoo. Have 2 more of the smaller size of this shampoo in the stash so no need to repurchase just yet.
    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!

    Helloooo! I have an update to report....

    Elemis Gentle Rose Exfoliator 50ml - NBI as it has come out of my stash destined for ebay
    Benefit Bene Tint 4ml and Benefit Cha Cha Tint 4ml - NBI, I found these lurking outside of my make-up inventory!

    UUs
    Veet Spray on hair removal cream 150ml - blue
    Veet Spray on hair removal cream 150ml - pink
    Tesco Aqueous Cream 500g

    I also have a planned IN for later when I replace my aqueous cream. I think most people keep a tub of this at home don't they? I use it for my shower after using hair removal cream as my skin definitely won't react to it, and it's super cheap!

    So sorry to hear of your little Poppy dying, Itzy. You did well to keep her for a year after her sis went, as piggies don't cope well with grief.
    They aren't hardy creatures at all. I loved mine, both of them died of old age. Super family pets. I am tempted to have more but for the extra work they bring - which is a lot for small creatures.
    Though there is a new method of bedding which would cut out a lot of the hassle I had previously.

    It involves those washable pads used on beds, chairs etc in care homes as incontinence protection . V. novel.

    Thanks for your thoughtful comments Emm. Glad the heating is sorted.

    I had to take the breadknife to my bottle of Avon Care Nourishing Lotion and there was LOADS left - it's so thick that it had clung to the upper walls of the bottle and defied gravity when it was upside down.
    I was extra-lavish with it this morning and still couldn't use it all up. It's a great product and I may have found a HG.

    My daughter raved about the Avon Moroccan Oil hair shampoo and conditioner I gave her some time ago, so I succumbed and ordered some for myself. It won't be here for a couple of weeks, anyway. Was sooo tempted by the other special offers but was good.

    Tried the new Avon FootWorks Beautiful Deep Moisturising foot cream. First impressions are that this is definitely a "foot only and under socks" cream as the glycerine in it makes it quite sticky. It doesn't rub in particularly well.
    I've loved using Nivea on my tootsies for the past week, and once this cream is UU (it's 150 ml so it'll be a while) Nivea and the A!di Lacura Urea will be my HG creams. If the A!di cream comes back on special, that is...
    Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again... I would have burned the pink candle, sculptured like a rose, that melted in storage." Don't keep things 'for best' - that day never comes. Use them and enjoy them now.
