    Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.

    Oh Rosemary - huge huge hugs. No idea what I can say that will help - my longest relationship was only just over a year (!) but if theres anything I can do, you know where I am xxx

    2 INs :o

    But they were both too good to pass up,

    Asda have the Garnier Moisture Match creams on half price so I grabbed the yellow one. I like it very much and have about half left in my current tube.

    And that naughty Wayne Goss (gossmakeupartist on youtube) has been showing off the lovely new limited edition Sleek i-Divine palette. Its called candy and is pastels :drool: I'd been looking for a pastel palette but couldn't find a nice one so I ordered this on Superdrug's site (free del atm). I don't have any pastels so it will certainly be used and loved. I adore Sleek palettes and would love to have all the i-Divines. Their pigmentation is amazing for the price (£7.99).

    A small but rare make-up UU:

    23. Clinique High Impact mascara in black 4g - WBA but not needed for a long long time, plenty more where that came from! I somehow ended up with two of these on the go at the same time so expect the other one won't be too far behind.

    Have a uu to declare and ins

    UU - Nivea Honey & Milk Lipbalm - WBA, lovely and creamy and smells so nice, have loads of lipbalm to get through before I buy anymore though.

    In - St Moritz Self Tanning Mousse in Medium - Competition win, I already have one of these and think it is fab, no streaking, great colour and it dries super quick.

    In - Seche Vite x 2 - Didn't need them but got them half price.

  • I ordered the Glamour LIB box too! A couple of INs in the form of magazine freebies too, nothing too major.

    Huge hugs to Rosemary, what an awful situation. I hope things improve for you.

    Good luck with your new venture luvlycake!

    Not been on this thread for a couple of weeks so firstly rosemary - so sorry to hear about your problems, it does sound like he may have depression but still no excuse, hope you are as ok as you can be

    A few IN's and UU's for me

    UU
    Avon planet spa foot & elbow African Shea butter cream 50ml - WMBA
    Had this in a drawer for a few years half used, smelt ok so used it up and it did the job but is in a pot, prefer a tube of cream for this use.
    Herbal Essences 'its a curl thing' shampoo 400ml - WBA
    Although it seems HE have stopped making it:mad:
    Dove hair therapy nourishing oil care conditioner 200ml - WBA
    Really helps with dry hair, I find the whole Dove hair care range good
    Marc Jacobs Daisy 'hot pink' perfume 100ml - WNBA
    Nice but I prefer the original Daisy, this one the smell didn't last very long
    Jemma Kidd make up school lipgloss - WNBA
    Magazine freebie, nothing special but finally used it all up today

    IN
    Sure 'radiant' anti perspirant roll on 50ml - only cost me 44p in Boots as half price and combined with 25% ACM voucher
    Radox Coconut Kiss shower cream 250ml - again boots bargain combo of half price and 25% ACM voucher
    Colgate sensitive pro-relief toothpaste 22ml - freebie handed to me in Boots today
    Finally gave in and did the Soap & Glory glitch as I got 3 items for £1
    Checkmate, sexy mother pucker gloss stick and daily double lidshadow and linerstick. Just couldn't say no to that

    Huge hugs to Rosemary feel free to vent as often as you like on here, we're all behind you!

    Good Luck to Luvlycake on your new venture.

    I have had a manic weekend, it was my birthday and my brand new niece arrived a whole three weeks and a day early :j:j:j She is beautiful and I'm instantly smitten - I can buy all the pink and little frilly frocks I like! :D

    I got a bit behind but have just caught up on the last few pages, I've had the following UU since the beginning of the month:

    1. Garnier Moisture Match Moisturiser - WBA - I loved this but its now been replaced in my affections by the Elemis Flash Balm which I love everything about - sadly I couldn't get any of the Red freebies, I'd well and truly missed the boat - did get a couple off Ebay at not too extortionate a price, still begrudge it though! :rotfl: The seller had 25 on offer they'd obviously got for £2 a piece, or worse.... Don't get me started!! Shame I prefer the Elemis to the Garnier as its something like six times the price :eek: Shan't be paying full price for it though, I'd rather do without :D

    2. Schwartzkopf Pro Styling Heat Protection Spray - WBA - Cheap and seemed to do the job, only complaint would be that the bottle is a little too heavy on the spray, which is noticable when I used it on dry hair to re-straighten so probably used it more quickly than I needed to.

    3. Elemis Skin Nourishing Shower Cream - WBA if on a good offer, could pick it up cheap off Ebay etc - nice fragrance and left my skin feeling very soft.

    4. Elemis Tranquil Touch Creamy Body Wash - WNBA - Left my skin very soft but wasn't keen on the fragrance, reminiscent of sour milk to me :rotfl:

    5. VO5 Gloss Me Smoothly Shampoo - WDBA - Cheap as chips and my hair likes it, result! Tend to alternate with L'Oreal Everpure and my hair seems happy with this.

    Then a few IN:

    1. Aqua Sana Body Scrub
    2. Aqua Sana Body Wash
    3. Decleor Aromessence Solaire Tan Activator Serum
    4. Decleor Life Radiance Flash Radiance Mask
    5. Decleor Aroma Cleanse Youth Lotion
    6. Decleor Aroma Cleanse Youth Cleansing Milk
    7. Nivea In-Shower Body Moisturiser

    All, bar the Nivea, were picked up on a hen weekend at Center Parcs and the divine spa there, had the best pedicure I'd ever had in total luxury with several glasses of champagne, bliss!! The Nivea, well I'm just a sucker for a gimmick and I hate moisturising so much that any corner cutting sounds good to me - I've actually found it quite effective and its not as dangerous in the tub as I thought it might be, compared to something like Flakeaway this is barely hazardous at all! I also have birthday IN :o will do a separate post of those after tea!

    Oops - just back from Asda, where I bought a facial oil and a scrub. They're both the N-Spa ones, which I've wanted to try for a while, and were £8 for 2, instead of £7 each. How could I say no?!

    I'm about to finish a Benefit cream and a shower gel, so I figure at least it won't be extras in the house. If you see what I mean :D
