Two INs for me today
Elemis frshskin skin clear moisturiser 25ml
Ghost Moonlight 2ml
Both Freebies with Cosmopolitan mag... have justified the moisturiser because my current benefit moisturiser is almost out and so I thought I could try this one as an alternativeAddicted to MSE, I can't resist a bargain0 -
any ideas of what to do with face moisturiser that doesn't agree with face? other than use it for body lotion (I've enough of them to use up haha!)

If you have not tried already, might be worth doing a patch test on neck and decollette, my face is overly sensitive, but these areas and backs of hands are not.:DThe best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time. (Abraham Lincoln)0 -
Suffering withdrawal symptoms! I'm already thinking of going to buy new conditioner (don't like the smell of the current one) and a spare hand cream for the desk at work.
I've got really dry skin just now, so I'm making an effort to moisturise, even though I'm not a big fan. Instead of buying a new hand cream for work, I've taken my home bottle in, and am now using Body Sh0p body butter as hand cream at home. It smells lovely, and is just as thick.
Sun tan lotion has been promoted to body moisturiser, and I'm working through the near empty perfume bottles first.0 -
Another day at home with my sickly daughter - I am feeling under the weather today feeling queasy with a headache but hopefully am just tired and not getting what shes got. On a positive note I have used up large quantities of hand wash to avoid the lurgy.
1 UU today - Lush party popper WBA im not really keen but these ones are one of DD's favourites.
My Lush order arrived and have a new love - The Brightside bar and Enchanter - Im a sucker for citrus sents
Have painted my nails with Nails inc portchester square with China glaze luxe and lust as a top coat.
Any recommendations for flakie polishes easily available in the UK?No more buying toiletries0 -

I have quite a thick face moisturiser I was sent in a product trial. Thinking I'll use it as foot/heel lotion, as it's not likely to disagree with such hard skin!0 -
I've used up moisturiser that wasn't OK on the face on my feet as well as for conditioning leather - shoes, boots, handbags and belts. I always use the facial moisturisers down as far as the back of the neck and the top of the chest anyway. HTH.Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again...

Grrrr :mad::mad::mad:
I am really annoyed - bought some Benefit make up on ebay and I think it is fake
Have contacted the seller and am hoping for a quick refund. Not impressed.0 -
Quite a good day of ends of things...
3 - UU batiste dry shampoo in floral and flirty. WBA...but have some in stash.
4 - UU Avon senses celebrate me shower gel. Used as bath foam. Nothing special. WNBA.
5 - TA Avon supershock mascara. WNBA. Not finished the tube but it's so gloopy, like it's really old. Which it may very well be of course!
6 - UU Avon far away perfume. WNBA, it's OK but I have lots of OK perfumes. I've been wearing them for work.Cookie, I think you're tame. :heart2:

I was worried that it was just me who still had last years Boots gifts stashed around my room! Have spent all day trying to work out how I've ended up with so much stuff! The hand food stuff does go off really quickly, I'd try and get rid of them as fast as possible!
I know :mad: I've been saying that for years and haven't bought any for just about as long (apart from these tins). I did give 1 away last year and had a quick sniff and they are stiff ok but now need to get them gone asapI do have a small S&G Hand Food in my stash which has gone off and it really is awful, I have been using it on my feet.
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 time0 -
asset - it's the smell of them when they go off, urgh it's horrendous!
Ooh thanks for your suggestions everyone? Do you think gone off face cleaner could be used to clean the toilet?!
My boyfriend hasn't got his mum anything for mother's day, so I get to rummage together something from my stash haha! Yes, I get to make some space! xxxNo buying toiletries 2015 - 1 in
