  • UU

    M&S Fruity Beauty bath caviar WNBA - this was a christmas gift from 2011 have others left from the same set but am struggling to know what the point of it is - it smells fruity but doesnt when its in the bath and once dissolved it doesnt colour the bathwater so seems like a waste of time. Will attempt to UU the rest over the week at least i'll gain some space.

    INS (freebies)
    mini shampoo and conditioner from Aveda
    No more buying toiletries
  • As predicted I took a de-tour home at lunch and went to BS for some bargains using a Quidco 40% off, £10 for 3 body butters- cherry, passion fruit and duo sweet pea and a teenage cancer trust cherry mini shower gel.
    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

    Thank you!



    I use this one all the time

    http://www.olay.co.uk/skin-care-products/complete/Essentials%20Complete%20Care%20SPF30%20Day%20Lotion%20for%20Normal/Dry/Combination%20Skin?pid=5410076481712

    TBH I have tried the more expensive ones and I don't rate them, certainly not above these ones anyhow! I've been a fan of the 'complete' Olay range for years, I love the stuff, it's lovely and light and does the job :T

    Thanks for that. Its just one of those brands that is very popular but ive never seen it mentioned on here. Im looking for a decent face cream that doesnt cost the earth so will try olay once the other are used up.

    Uu cyclax apricot face scrub wnba. It was a cheapy from ages ago and it was to rough for my face and dried my skin out. Used it on my legs and feet. Just realised i dont actually have a face scrub in my stash!
    I still have my bodyshop voucher so might try there before spending any pennies :money:

    I have a uu

    Lidl Suddenly Madam Glamour - I bought three bottles of this for £1.99 each about a year ago, I gave one to my MIL and this is the first one I have used. I WBA, it is really nice and lasts pretty well considering the price. The box and bottle look nice too.

    I should have a flurry of uu before the end of the month but they are all hanging on for now.

    An update on my Barry M Gelly nail polish - it chips badly. I love the colour and the application but even with a topcoat it chipped. I only have one other Barry M nail polish and I love the colour and application of that one too but it also chips like you wouldn't believe. I don't think I will purchase any of the other colours. My £1 MUA nail polishes have much better staying power, in fact I find these rather good.

    Have an in too

    Revlon nail polish in Stormy - the quick drying one. Have looked at this colour off and on for ages and decided to buy.

    I think Hermes have lost my Bare Minerals parcel, they are saying they have delivered to my porch. I don't have a porch and was in when they say they delivered. I really, really wanted that set too.

    Forgive me forum, for I have sinned. I went into Boots today and they were selling the Philosophy Christmas stuff at 75% off so I spent £35 of points on the stuff. I will give a few things away, but I think it's fair to say that I won't be needing any more posh shower gel for a while!

    A couple of UU to balance the weekend INs

    Sure aerosol deodorant - I prefer roll ons but this was reduced and was fine.

    Boots cocoa body wash - this is not something I would have picked up myself but I received it in my recent swap and I really liked it. It had a lovely warming scent - just what we need in this never ending winter! WBA

    Would anyone be interested in doing a swap? I have some unopened face packs and hair serums that I just won't use. :hello:
