Good luck for tomorrow Ruby. Its been so long since I had an interview I have no idea what to do anymore!
Happy (belated?) birthday KT2802, I'm not sure if its today or not! You're allowed ins for your birthday, I'm sure its a loophole
One small UU for me this weekend, Clinique Happy perfume GWP size - WNB I have had this for years because I don't really like the smell! It did for a couple of weeks at work and there is another in the stash to spritz through.
No toiletry ins this weekend, and I am returning the Avon book with just my mum's order. I am doing well with the challenge this year, even if I do say so myself :rotfl:No more buying unnecessary toiletries 2018
35 UU / 13 unnecessary ins0 -
hammyham, dont be scared - when I first joined this challenge (was right at the beginning, think there are three of us left) I had 47odd bars of soap.......Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup0

Another UU, ladies! Sanctuary Hand Cream. WIBA? I really liked it: it was rich but easily absorbed and made my hands feel smoothilicious. The only had point is there is no SPF in it - when are the manufacturers going to start putting it in more commonly?!Please call me 'Pickle'
No More Buying Books: ???
No More Buying DVDs: ???
NMB Toiletries ??? and I've gone back for my Masters at the University of Use Ups!

Hi everyone

Thanks

Well, I just got a UU of bath foam.
Though knocking a glass vial of the stuff into the bath and spending the next fifteen minutes washing bubbles down the drain and carefully picking up shards of glass was not the way I really wanted to UU it.0 -

I am glad to hear about the birthday loophole, it is mine on Saturday and then mothers day in the same weekend, there will definitely be some ins I'm sure.Another UU, ladies! Sanctuary Hand Cream.

I think it should be in eye cream aswell, Avon did one with SPF15 in but you can't get it now, it would surely be a good thing to have in as the skin there is so much thinner.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

I agree re the SPF in hand cream and eye gel. I always rub all creams I apply into my hands as well, but in the summer my hands get really exposed when I'm riding my trike and some SPF in hand cream would be useful. If I applied sunblock it would be put on a dozen times a day, with washing hands, dishes, etc.
Used the Body Shop Sweet Lemon Body Scrub this morning, and gosh, I feel clean! It's not a mega scrubby scrub but it did the job nicely. It was a full tub, so although I was very liberal there's still loads left - a scrub a week will do me nicely, as I already body - brush and use a invigorating body mop with all my showers.Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again...

Another UU - Nivea soft 8ml sample. WNBA. I have a big tube of this to use up anyway, but I find if I use it on my hands it goes a bit bitty? And it's too greasy for a body lotion.
