Evilsquid so sorry to hear about the difficulties you have been having but huge congratulations on the career front!

Hope you had a great holiday Fiasco and I hope everyone has had a good long weekend.

My hair is so dry at the moment - what intensive conditioners do you ladies recommend? Planning on going to buy one at some point this week.

I used some Aussie Deep Conditioner - the shine one yesterday, a little tip I picked up on Superscrimpers - once you've put your conditioner on - put a plastic shower cap over your hair and leave it to soak in. I do this at least once a week...

UUs to report:

Champneys Manicure Soak Bomb
Have another in my stash - I've had these for years, not sure if they are still available...

Champneys Manicure Miracle Scrub Sachet
I liked this - WBA

Champneys Vitamiracle Hand Cream 35ml
This has been spluttering for ages! - Ok as a handcream but not keen on the smell - WNA as have a larger one in my stash...

FCUK Body Butter 50ml
Liked this but have 2-3 more in my stash.

Ins

Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Frizz Remedy 250ml
Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Shine Remedy 250ml
Aussie Miracle Hair Insurance Leave in Conditioner 250ml
(These were 3 for £10 in Boots) and I needed some more deep conditioner...

Garnier Fresh Essentials Eye Make Up Remover - I'd been using baby oil but it takes ages and loads to get my make up off so I gave in and bought this.

Champneys Travel Size Set of Face Care (Cleanser,Toner,Day Cream,Night Cream)

Body Shop Ionic Clay Mask - no excuses just wanted to try it...

All in all had a bit of splurge was wanting to wait until the end of the month but didn't make it. On the plus side if there is one I didn't buy any Shower Gels or Body Lotions!

Have just gone onto boots.com and looked through the orders I've made in the last few years, was very useful as it made me realise what I have actually used out of the orders I have made! Feeling a bit sick now!

Another small UU:

Sanctuary Youth Boosting Facial Night Concentrate 10ml - WNBA, this was fine but a bit heavy, not overly keen on the smell and I didn't notice any difference in my skin - granted, I didn't use it for long given the size.

Lots more night creams in the stash!

I'm sorry to hear about your ex evilsquid and your foot Rosemary54

I hope things sort themselves out.

UU's
Santa's sack bubble bar WBA I can get about 9 baths out of 1 bubble bar. Still have a few left.
Bath bomb WBA lovely scent (not lush)

I have listed a few more item on ebay which is really to counter act the ins' I will need to declare in the next few weeks from my online shopping over the weekend.

Oh gosh hammyham, that was a brave thing to do, are you formulating a plan to use things up, gift for birthdays, christmas etc?

Hi everyone,

A few INs and UUs to report!

INS
Almond Oil - Heard this is good as a moisturiser and round the eyes as an alternative to eye cream. Have used it for both and liking it so far! Only cost 99p too!

Einstein Lip Balms x 2 - These were in a little set of 2 for only 39p. How could I resist.... I'm not opening them until I've used up some other lip balms though!

UUS
Nivea Stress Protect Deodorant - HG have another that I've just opened but WDBA.

Benefit Bad Gal Lash Mascara Sample - This was a freebie with Glamour last year, not a bad mascara, good for volumising but needed topping with a lengthening mascara. WMBA

Barry M Limited Edition Lip Gloss in Nude Colour - This is my HG lip gloss. Love Barry M glosses in general but this colour was a perfect nude colour and smelt amazing, like caramel. Not at all sticky and pretty shiney. So annoyed it was limited edition WBA

UU

125ml Clarins gentle exfoliator brightening toner - WBA I use this daily rather than the suggested once a week - I find it leaves skin looking fresher. Have a full size and some minis so no need to buy just yet.

I've been on nightshift and the world is a bit of a blur.

I've used up a Perlier Grapefruit body cream 250 ml. WNBA. Scent didn't last. Bottle really hard to use. It was funny shape and a funny type of plastic. Think I've tossed out about 75mls because I just can't be bothered.

Strivectin scrub of some type. 30ml tube. Have another in the stash. It's not bad but I don't thinks its worth the money that a full sized one costs. Cliniques 7day scub is very similar and half the price!

Tossing out a Lise Watier Menage a Trois blush in Corale. Beautiful colour, nice packaging, not too expensive but it's discontinued! I just had a rim of powder left on the pan, so it's really a Used Up.

I was weak Estee Lauder had a gwp bag that I really liked but I got a rollerball of Pleasure perfume that I needed and a beautiful lilac gelee/powder eye shadow. The bonus items, well, yes, six assorted in the stash. I was really happy there was no lippie!

Glad the foot is feeling better Rosemary (that was the name of my favourite doll). Off or a nap before another nightshift.

Oh, is Glossybox UK having issues? The Canadian one hasn't taken any money this month. No word on what is happening and no idea if there is a box for May.

Morning all

A UU: Sanctuary body butter 300ml - WBA, like the smell, it's nice and rich but absorbs easily too. No need to replace just yet, have a few litres of various S&G lotions in the stash!

Dont know whether they are issues but I got an email yesterday saying they were taking payment soon.
