    Have finished off a bottle of Naked coco de mer body wash - WBA but probably not if it's full price as it's £4.20 a bottle! I can get the same effect from a 59p bar of soap.

    So far not seen any results from switching to sulfate free products, but I've got an appointment for an allergy test in August, and I'll ask that he tests sulfates along with whatever else they test.

    Morning all,

    Have been quietly using up products and now have a few to declare.

    UU
    5ml Prevage Eye Cream, a GWP, loved it but MNBA the Prevage range is, I think, pretty expensive.
    15ml Gatineau Activ Éclat Gommage, WBA in the future, but have other things to use first.
    15ml LE Superskin Moisturiser. Was great through the cold winter months, used it as a night cream. WBA, perhaps this morning while they still have free postage until noon.

    Two items will be UU before the weekend, so I'll add them now.
    200ml Elemis Tri-Enzyme Resurfacing Facial Wash, used this as second cleanse. WBA - have another ready to use.
    200ml No 7 P&P Beauty Serum. I used this from the time it came out, it has served me very well, but so many new items around, so probably WNBA, although I have a travel size somewhere.

    TA
    75ml Garnier Hair Wax, haven't had a hairstyle where I need this for years!!

    Morning all - have 1 UU and 7 TAs:

    96: Garnier Hydralock Hand Cream 50ml - WNBA, won this in a competition years ago. It was really greasy so could only apply before bed, although not sure if this was because it was out of date!

    97-103: TA 5 old nail varnishes and 2 Primark eyeshadow palettes that were pretty rubbish. I know I don't count INS of make up or nail varnish but I still like to include them as outs! Doesn't make sense really but it makes me feel like I am reducing my stash!

    Just had a quick look at my stash list, it's looking considerably smaller. The only things that I have hoards of now are shower gel, body scrub, and body moisturiser. Not bad!

    went to town as had some Debs points to use by the end of the month,did not really need anything but saw some foot scrub £7.60 with a third off so £5.06,used my £5 points....foot scrub 6p:):):)
    then went to boots as needed some blusher £9 but had a coupon if I spent £10 I got £5 off AND if I bought 1 item then the second was half price SO two blusher for £8.50:):):):):):):)

    Also got a pair of sandals down from £45 to £13:):):):):):):)
    but bargain of the day has to be a pair of sandals I just ordered £55 save £55 £0!!!!!!!the order went through along with a replacement pair I had ordered which they had messed me about with and had to spend £7 to send wrong size back so don,t feel too guilty(this was the firm whose shoes broke on holiday:(

    only thing I could not get(and searched every man shop in town) was short sleeved cream shirts for OH, used to get them from marks but when I asked why they have long sleeved but not short was told there was no demand:mad::mad::mad::mad:

    treid to get a makeover using coupons from web but the sas said they were all doing prom make up....funny they all looked as tho they were doing nothing to me!anyway have booked in for a Dior makeover after my Decleor facial(offer one) next week so something to look forward to:)

    Hey peeps, I've not been here for a while but I'm still plodding through my stash.
    Had another UU - sample size st Ives face scrub.

    In the interest of MSE, do you all think I could use OH Clinique scuffing lotion as a toner? My usual toner is getting low and the lotion has been sitting unused for ages!

    Two UUs:

    BS lip butter- can't remember the flavour but WMBA as they are quite cheap when on sale,

    Clinique Aromatic Elixir: Got sample for free years ago which I hardly used because it has a very strong musk scent. However, it came in handy to use after my gym sessions as it covered up my sweat to the point that people were complimenting me on my fragrance lol. WNBA Wouldnt be comfortable to wear it as an every day scent.
