    Another UU to report:

    Avon Planet Spa face mask selection - this came as a pack of 12, with 3 different types of masks. It was ok, but bought them in a special Christmas clearance sale 2 years ago, and don't think they sell them anymore. Am happy to just buy face masks as and when I fancy them though - 12 was quite a lot!

    Hi ladies, remember me? I seriously need to get back to this challenge and keep posting but work as you all know has been hectic. We have someone new starting shortly though so hopefully I'll get time to read and post more. I don't get the chance to post at home either at the mo as MrM recently had surgery on his achilles heel and is on crutches so now I have to cook every night as well (bet all you ladies who cook anyway are rolling your eyes at me!).

    So I've been indulging in new OPI lacquers as per usual. Bought a couple of the Bond Girl colours and one of the Minnie Mouse colours (got that from Liverpool when we had a lovely break there in July). Have an Auto Delivery due from QVC re: a previous TSV any day now too.

    When MrM was mobile I remember going to the L'Occitane store at Trafford Centre a couple of times. Bought myself one of the new fragrances with matching shower gel and body lotion. Another time I went to buy Liquid Soap and came away with far more than I intended!

    The worst confession I have to make though is subscribing to Glossybox though I only did it for three months and bought it for Emma. Have I seen any of the products from the boxes? No.

    But it was when I was in a department store recently and got the chance to buy the new Benefit powder for Emma for her birthday and felt that old thrill come over me that I realised I was going down the old pathway. So back to it! Plus I had a lovely personal message from Maddiemay that reminded me of what lovely folks you all are and I should take the time to come back on here and catch up.

    So I guess I don't really need anything and the fact that I can't get the Trafford Centre (I don't drive) to pick up those L'Occitane treats should spur me on, yes?

    I also thought I post about the package I got from Liz Earle yesterday. I had to order my IBST and Emma's C&P. I knew the order would qualify me for a free sample size of C&P but was really chuffed when I opened the pack to find they had given me a free 200ml tube of C&P as well. I have rung them today to give feedback and thank them. Maybe they thought I didn't use anything any more as I tend to pick most of my LE bits up from John Lewis now. It was lovely though.

    How are you all doing?

    Hi, great to see you here again, I will catch up and reply to your pm soon:o

    I have generally been very good, but have a little batch of IN's to declare, which I bought for my hols in Sept, we are going on our first cruise:D Have all the toiletries I will need, but need to start thinking about clothes:(

    A TSV of Leighton Denny colours due to arrive tomorrow and have a shortlist of OPI's being watched on *bay. You did rather well with the LE, that's great.
    The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time. (Abraham Lincoln)

    Anatomicals Don't Just Clean It Woman, Scrub It Body Scrub, 75ml - WNBA, lovely smell but not scrubby at all
    Avon Footworks Peppermint Foot Cream, 75ml - WNBA as I am avoiding AVON now for various reasons but lovely to use
    Avon Scentin Perfume, 30ml - WNBA as smells lovely but the smell just doesn't last....
    Melvita ultra-Nourshing Cream, 2ml - WNBA, lovely cream but not keen on the smell! Think it contains palm oil anyway
    Loccitane Precious Night Cream, 1ml - WNBA, it is ok but not worth what Loccitane charge for it!

    Where r u cruising to/from? If from Southampton u can practically take all but the kitchen sink.

    Which new OPIs r u after?
    Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!

    Ah its so nice to have you back VALM, we missed you! :wave:

    I've a couple of IN - Percy & Reed No Oil Oil, off Ebay, I've actually another on its way which I'll count once it arrives, couldn't resist as got the two for £9 odd including postage, will keep me going for a while as I can't be without this product now!

    The other is Lady Million ETP 80ml, a very generous late birthday present from one of my friends I'd not seen for a while. :)

    This week has been a horrid one, me and OH have split up, its been a while coming as we both wanted different things and couldn't really ignore that any longer or hold out for him to have a change of heart. Sensible but very sad :(:(:( Feeling a bit lost at the moment. This year has been horrible so far, I hope my luck is about to change, fingers crossed

    Finally, one UU, Tresemme Freeze Hold Hairspray - HG and will be replaced shortly
