back to the docs today and good news as suspected I do not have a stress fracture:)bad news is I cannot see the foot man till 9th May:(
am loving the Neals Yard eyeshadow from half price perfumes,it is a lovely soft green and stays on well without creasing,not bad for £1.49:):):)0 -
2 UU for me;
BS mango body butter - WMBA, love the moisturiser, but still to find the scent for me!
L'oreal elvive serum, a free sample from a magazine. Quite a nice serum, but I have other stuff in the house to use up, so will bear it in mind when I come to buy something new.0 -
Battled against the wind again today, no damage to house, TG, but the wind had me at a standstill on the trike a few times.
Life has been made a bit easier by my IN, a £land purchase of a Bristows detangling spray. I've got one on order from Avon but as discussed previously, my lass is not the most reliable.
It's supposed to be used on towel dried hair, but that's when my hair is always at its sleekest, as I use the no-tangle hair wash method and lots of decent conditioner. Mine gets hopelessly tangled in bed - I have to sleep on my back due to arthritis so the back of my head is a knotty mess in the morning. It also gets tangled when it's windy like today.
I also got some Nair facial hair waxing strips. Worked a bit too well. I was slightly careless and just caught my cupid's bow on my lips. Luckily it wasn't too disfiguring, but I won't make that mistake again...!Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again...

Soap & Glory righteous butter - I used to love this but like lots of other people overindulged in S&G. Will probably have to rebuy again as I have a ton of the shower gel.

Hi ladies. Haven't posted much this week as MrM was working away all last weekend so we have been spending more time together in the evenings this week. He is working away tonight so I've nipped online whilst painting my nails. Have painted them with OPI Suzy's Hungary Again as I'm at a pink party tomorrow night.
2 more UUs:-
Elemis Pro Radiance Cleanser
LE Hand Wash.
Both replaced already.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!

I did a bad thing. I was bored with the three shampoos and two conditioners already open...so I used two new ones.
Oh the shame!Cookie, I think you're tame. :heart2:

Amazon are sending me the Scholl Express Pedi to review, woo-hoo! I talked myself out of buying a Micro-Pedi a little while ago, so I am delighted with this. I don't have much hard skin, but there is the odd bit that resists all creams.Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again...
