Comments

was weak at boots double discount days
bought 4x sanctuary body scrub-my husband loves this
4x sanctuary cocooning body butter-HG got in a xmas gift and loved it cant really justify buying it at the moment as have tons of body moistuirisers in cupbaord plus 4x sanctuary body souffle-free with above-WBA-like this for holiday moisturising as it is quite light
another in- 1xvaseline spray and go body moisturiser-a present MBA have tried it and its quite nice going to keep it for holidays though
gave away 1x bs ginger body butter,1xbs cranberry body butter and 1xbs vanilla body lotion to a friend to cheer her up
UU-dont usually count soap as we normally just use baby soap but have been delving into my hotel supplies and have used up a crabtree and evelyn triple milled soap with jojoba oil-very nice smell and creamy lather but who would pay £10 for three bars of soap
have quite a few things coming to the end so will post as i use up
love this thread as it has really focussed me on using up what i have rather than just contiously buying more stuff0 -
UU Bath & Bodyworks Japanese cherry blossom shower gel. WBA it lasted ages and smells lovely.Debt free and busy treating myself:)
No more toiletries/make up until I've used what I've got stashed since Jan 2011, graduated October 2012. Restocked Dec 13..damn those sales0 -
Hope your Dad is ok luvlycake.
I have 11 INS:o:o
Most of them are NBI though which makes me feel a bit better. I did a box swap on a Facebook group.
42: Simply Wax After Wax Oil 100ml
43: Dirty Works Youth Sexy Thing Day Cream 50ml
44: Balance Active Formula Snake Venom Face Mask 75ml
45: Balance Active Formila Rejuvenating Day Cream 50ml
46: Balance Active Formila Rejuvenating Night Cream 50ml
47: Skin Wisdom Youth Protect Eye Treatment 15ml
Has anyone tried the Balance Active Formula range before? I am always worried about trying new facial products as I am prone to acne.
Also have the following INS from my recent TBS online sale shop plus an extra 40% off:
48: The Body Shop Nutriganics Softening Cleansing Gel Oil 100ml
49: The Body Shop Seaweed Mattifying Day Cream 50ml
50: The Body Shop Rainforest Moisture Shampoo 60ml
51: The Body Shop Rainforest Moisture Conditioner 60ml
52: The Body Shop Rainforest Moisture Hair Butter 50ml
Phew! No more INS for a while now!0 -
Have used up a bottle of Naked Marshmallow and Aloe shampoo - WNBA I thought it made my hair look really greasy and rat-tailed, so I just wound up feeling very conscious about my hair. Have lots of bottles of shampoo to move on to next.
keeping fingers crossed everything goes well for your dad lovelycake!0 -
Went to France yesterday so I have some ins:
Make Up For Ever HD Foundation - HG
Sephora Eyeshadow Sticks in brown and taupe because I hate the Rimmel Scandeleyes' lack of colour range and got bored of waiting for the Max Factor version to come out (stalked Superdrug and Boots obsessively and they only seem to have the lime green one!!)
Sephora Nano Eyeliner in glitter brown - just looked pretty
Sephora Shower gels in Lemon Verbana and Lagoon
Sephora roll on perfume in Lagoon
2x big bottles of Bioderma
2 x La Roche Posay Serozinc since you can't get it here except via Ebay
3 x travel shower creams from Marionnaud in Fig Plum, Pomegranate Passion and Blood Orange & Cranberry
+ hand ful of sample perfumes0 -
Hope your Dad is OK Luvlycake.
Ins
2 x Mouthwash - this was needed
UU
Sure max protection deo - HG - have already restocked.No more buying toiletries0 -
UU:
8. Gillette Satin Care Sensitive shave gel 200ml - HG and replaced with same from stash. Since I'm now onto my last one of these, and tend to only stock up when on offer as I get through a can every few weeks, I'm going to stop recording them as they're simply inflating my numbers!MFW 2017 #123 2018: £1,852.64/£39,200 (4.7%)0 -
Good morning ladies,
Hope your dad is on the mend Luvlycake
Have some uu's: Palmolive morning tonic shower gel, this has quite a sharp scent which I wasn't that keen on so wnba
Vo5 plump it up volumising mousse, I found this to be very good, gave volume without leaving my hair feeling crispy or heavy, wba
Balance me wonder eye cream, I love this, it's the only eye cream I've found any sort of benefit from, the fact that it was a magazine freebie was an added bonus!
Also have a TA - MOP lemongrass conditioner, horrible stuff. I had purchased this at 75% off. It smells vile and has a really gritty texture - I've never used this brand before so y don't know if this normal or if mine had gone off. Did nothing for my hair either so has been binned.
Happy pampering, xo0 -
Hope your dad is on the mend Luvlycake,sending hugs:grouphug:
change of weather today so may get jobs done before 9 p.m which was when I finished last night as tooooo hot before!
started to use a sample YSL exfoliator,it is yellow with gold writing on the tube:mad::mad::mad::mad:why do they do this?I struggled with my specs on to read after trying in the bathroom and being confused when it was not grainy so quickly washing off as thought I'd got the wrong idea:rotfl:....it is a no grain exfoliator....er do they mean its a gel then?0 -
UU/TA Aussie Miracle Moist Shampoo. WNBA. I gave up on this I'm afraid, it really weighed my hair down and made it feel greasy. I like the MM conditioner but the shampoo is no good for my hair at all. I got through about half the bottle but I've given it up as a bad job. Replaced with Herbal Essence Hello Hydration.
Can any of you lovely ladies recommend a nail polish remover that cuts through top coat? I use a base coat, 2 coats of colour followed by top coat but really struggle to remove it! I've got a gel top coat from Kiko which looks fantastic but is almost impossible to remove without picking at it:mad:0
