Stormy with sunny intervals here and have seen my first Swallows today.:j

oooh, ours arrived last week and I'm quite a bit further north than you. However noticed one of our cats had caught one feel very sorry as they've just flown half way round the world to be gobbled by a cat :mad:

no Ins or UUs

Oh dear, poor thing, I love cats, but hate that they are such hunters. I thought that I saw a Swallow last week, but I was driving and couldn't be sure (without possible driving off the road:rotfl:) Yesterday, there was no doubt.

3 UU for me in the last couple of days

Imperial Leather enchanting white willow & bluebell bath creme - WIBA?
Maybe, it was only £1 and is ok for everyday use mainly by my DD

Herbal Essences It's A Curl Thing Conditioner - WBA/HG
I think HE have stopped making this as I can't find it anymore, it was a purple coloured bottle and noticed that the tousle me softy has been changed to a similar colour now. I have bought that one (in error thinking it was curly one) so will try it and see. I have seen the curl one on Amazon but if anyone sees it in a normal store please please let me know, my curls need it !!

Simple Kind to Skin Cleansing Face Wipes - WBA
Don't use face wipes very often, normally to freshen up after work before reapplying make-up if I'm going out. These are non irritating and don't leave my skin feeling 'filmy' like some other brands. Good price too.

I need to buy a new eye cream very soon, any recommendations from you lovely ladies? I need something for fine lines and dark circles. Currently using Benefit it's potent which sometimes stings a little. Don't want to spend more than £25. Have tried several others before but nothing that really wows me. I do have quite a few samples of Olay 3 point super serum, could this be used as eye cream? Serums confuse me

I have tried several eye creams and most have been OK, but nothing special. My two favourites atm are an Emma Hardie and and E-Spa, but the E-Spa is probably too expensive for me. My goto beauty guru beautymouth.com is raving about Indeed Labs Eyesilix from boots £24.99, she says that it works for all eye problems for her, when I have used my current stash of 15ml sizes this is the one I will try next, I am saving my advanage points, about half way there.

Sorry don't know about the serum.

Hey VALM

It's the GWP that seems to be on at a few places:

• Pro-Radiance Illuminating Beauty Flash Balm 15ml
• Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm 20g
• Soothing Apricot Toner 50ml
• Skin Nourishing Milk Bath 60ml
• Skin Nourishing Shower Cream 100ml
• Cloth (for Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm

None of it needed, but not bad for a £12 (semi-necessary) spend

Sounds like a lovely haul. I notice that QVC have a TSV on today with the new flash balm and cleansing balm in them so you did well getting them as GWPs.

UU: Mini Liz Earle Hand Cream - WNBA, not as effective as cheaper cream and I didn't like the hops smell, was a bit masculine!

I don't like the smell of this either. And it doesn't absorb into my skin as apparently it has white clay in it.

I have my current pot of Elemis PCMC which is spluttering and I think will be a UU today when I get around to getting washed and dressed. Am just in the process of reloading all my music to my phone as I bought a new memory card yesterday.

Was a bit miffed yesterday that I missed the postman. Now my new OPI lacquers are sitting in the local sorting office.

UU

Lulu's Time Bomb Take Off Time Cleansing Cream, 125ml - WBA, really nice cream! Did it's job!

Kiwisaver_2

Finally UU the evil foot [STRIKE]ointment[/STRIKE] balm. Could have pushed it to one more use if I were absolutely desperate BUT I ceremoniously threw it away instead. :T Be gone nasty foot unguent and may you never be tempted to pass the threshold off my house again.

I also found a spare tube of conditioner that I had saved from a DIY hair colour and tossed that into the rubbish too. Not likely I was ever going to be desperate enough to need to use that any time soon.

I too am interested in getting to understand serums a bit better, I was having a play around with all the different ones in the Body Shop recently but couldn't really figure out which of them (if any) would be suitable for me.

Hi all.

I have had a look at the Elemis TSV today but I have most of the items in there already and the price wasn't so dramatically different to their regular price for it to warrant buying and storing it.

I will have ins later in the week, DH bought me a 1/2 price bottle of YSL Paris from Debenhams mainly because it came with a free smartphone case and he has just got a smartphone so I added a couple of bits to the order:o. Will declare all when the parcel arrives.
