    :D I have managed to resist the Boots No7 glitch, :j this is what started me with a toiletries stash in the first place when there was a Boots grabbit thread ...:o
    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.

    Evening ladies,

    2 UU's, Jergens ultra-healing body moisturizer, a little 25ml sample which was free with a magazine. I was very impressed with this, it was very light but very effective, would buy again if it wasn't for the mountain of moisturizer still in the stash

    Superdrug B serum, this was pleasant enough to use and makeup does seem to go on more smoothly but I'm not convinced that it has done anything to improve my skin


    hope you are all well

    Happy pampering, xo
  • A few UU to report:

    Boots smile 6+ toothpaste - WBA its DD's favourite.

    Dove roll on deo - WBA but have more in the stash

    H&B fruity pencil glitter shower gel - this one was banana - was a Chritmas gift received by DD and was as bad as it sounds. The banana fragrance smelled like vomit luckily most disappeared in one glug during DD shower after swimming today. This was a pack of 7 so im hoping the rest smell better.
    No more buying toiletries

    UU:

    Ojon Hydrating moisturizer 50m. Like it but like I said about the shampoo, too expensive when you add in shipping.

    Is Jergen's new to the UK? It's an old brand over here and does the job, not too expensive and they bring out new scents/lines every year without really changing the formula.

    There was an unexpected in. I got a BB cream from Marcelle (it's a Canadian Company) and the pump is strange, it only pumps at certain angles. So I emailed them and told them that the cream is great and I think it's a design flaw they might want to look into. They asked me which colour and sent me a new tube!

    TopBox came and in came a nailpolish, a 4in1 nailfile/buffer, a lipgloss mini from Lise Watier (another good Canadian brand) and an eyeshadow that everyone dislikes. Not the colour or texture but the fact that it is one of those ones that you need an magnetic palette for.

    Hope the weather holds on your side of the world. It gorgeous here.

    Oh forgot to log my In's - 4 facial serum tubes to test!

    Which is great news as I've run out of serum.

    Missed the free listings on eBay at the weekend as I was working and exhausted once home... Boo me :(
