    Rosemary - sorry to hear no real improvement with your husband. Sounds like you had a lovely shopping trip though - good for you! Hope it cheered you up a little.

    Emsjune78 - happy birthday! Spoilt indeed, lucky you - enjoy your goodies!

    I'm sorry to report that I have INs - I was doing so well...

    1. Radon Shower Smoothies Soul Soother 200ml

    2. Sure 48hr APD Clear Pure Crystal 50ml

    Neither was exactly unnecessary as I'm currently onto the last full size of each product from my stash. Used the 25% off ACM coupons from Boots and they glitched as usual so paid the princely sum of £1.18 in total - thought it was too good to pass up given that I would need to buy these next month anyway. Both are new to me so looking forward to trying!

    Posted earlier, but didn't get a chance to read. I'm really sorry to hear of your troubles Rosemary I hope you come to a resolution soon. It can't be good for you, but think McCulloch is on to something, just be aware that you have to look after yourself in all of this!

    UU
    Soap & Glory Clean Girls creamy body wash 75ml - WBA
    I love S&G products in general, this is very moisturising and creamy
    Nuture 2 phase eye make up remover - WNBA
    This was a product trial. It was too oily for me, I'll stick with what I know and like thanks
    Max Factor 2 in 1 Ageless Elexir Foundation 30ml light Ivory - WBA and have done already in Boots with GWP on £15 Max Factor spend. Going to use up my half used foundations and samples first though to clear some more items

    A (full size :j) UU:

    26. Clinique Clarifying Lotion 200ml. WBA, have used for many years, but enjoying trying new facial skincare products at the moment whilst doing this challenge. I have another in the stash but going to leave untouched for a little while I think. Want to use my Elemis GWP toner first.

    Happy birthday emsjune - enjoy your pressies.

    I have some uu

    Avon Moroccon oil hair mask - WBA some time in the future, this tube lasted ages, it smelt nice and made my hair soft, last night I left it on overnight for a really deep treat.

    Herbal Essences Fresh Balance Shampoo - 400ml, I really liked this at first but think it is a bit too clarifying for daily use for me, I don't use a lot of heavy styling products so I WBA as a once a week wash and use something more moisturising the rest of the time.

    Herbal Essences Fresh Balance Conditioner - 400ml - as above

    Had a bit of a fall off the wagon with all the sales...
    Some incoming ins:
    2x Lancome Hypnose Star (£16 the pair!)
    Juicy Couture Peace, Love & Juicy 30ml (£17.50)
    Guerlain eye primer (£10.50)
    Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturiser, bonus size (£20!)
    Laura Mercier fig candle (£14.50)

    Might send the eye primer back as I have plenty of cream shadows that suffice as primers really.
