Evening.

UU's
Golden wonder bath ballistic WBA
Face wipes WBA can't remember brand but cheap
7 items out through ebay


Ins
12 samples sized items from ebay
Perfume sample
4 items from a forum I use
A bottle of tresseme hair conditioner, I have not used this for years and it was on offer for £2

It's been a hectic week with having my lounge replastered last week and booking the carpet to be fitted this morning. My parents have been wonderful and I could not have asked for more. Lounge is now painted with new skirting boards and arcatraves, new radiator e.t.c. On Wednesday evening when pressurising the heating system the pipe work on the new radiator came off on one side and covered the ceiling and 3 walls in mucky water so I had to repaint this. So glad things are going together now doors have been reattached today, roman blind and voile panels have gone up and I took all the rubbish up the tip all I need to do is put everything back and have a good clean of the rest of the house. Sofa is going to be delivered on Wednesday. I have painted the room a very pale baby blue with a grey carpet and purple sofa with an accent chair. It sounds odd but it does go.

I have a few confessions I did order the a few items from future primative soap tonight a they have released their winter collection. I also got the birch box deal but it not really an addition as I already subscribe to this beauty box.

Has anyone else had the mailing from LE about the Limited Edition C&P due out on 29 August. I definitely want to try one as it contains pachouli and grapefruit and I love both these fragrances. I am on my last cleanser in the stash as well so all's good.

Yes, me too! I definitely will check this out in store before purchasing though, as I got the last limited edition rose & lavender scented one and actually wasn't too fond of the smell even though I usually absolutely love both scents... Did you try that one?
I also just bought the set with a 200ml size in it before this was advertised!

&...

UU:
1. Garnier Eye Cream 15ml - the one in the dark pink tube. I loved this as a very reasonable option to throw in the gym bag! They have stopped making it now though I randomly found one in Waitrose and picked it up full price even though I knew it was probably old stock!
2. Original Source Coconut Shower 200ml - probably WNBA as the scent was a little too sickly sweet

IN:
1. L'Oreal Exfotonic 200ml
2. Illamasqua Androgen Cream Pigment 8g
3. Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish 200ml
4. Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish 30ml - freebie
5. Liz Earle Botanical Shine Shampoo 200ml
6. Liz Earle Botanical Shine Conditioner for fine hair 200ml
7. Liz Earle Energising Body Wash 200ml
8. Liz Earle Hand Repair 100ml
9. Liz Earle Instant Boost skin Tonic Spritzer 200ml - so happy to have this back in stock... after experimenting with some other stuff I realise this is the best and I can't be without it!

My updated stash list! Since joining the group a year ago, I have graduated individually in all the separate areas (apart from face washes which I have an obsession with!), but have then built a few areas back up eg. I had 1 exfoliator for ages which is about to finish, and then in the last 2 weeks have bought 3 new ones (unusual for me, but got 3 excellent deals).
I'm happy with the amount I have - it doesn't feel like I have too much like when I first started, there is enough variety to please my inner product junkie, it fits in the space I have for toiletries, and I like pretty much everything so I'm in no rush to use things up (only to have to go out and buy them again). I remember being in a rush to use up my previous shower gel stash, and when I did I had to immediately buy some more as I then had none... so I bought two on a buy one get one free offer and picked up a magazine with a shower gel freebie that week too... and BAM I was back to 3 shower gels in my stash!
In the last year I have used up or given away all the things I wasn't too fond of, picked up the habit of only buying what I truly want (when I like things I am in less of a rush to finish them), and waiting to finish things before buying. So thanks to everyone and the group, as I've picked this all up from being here

Morning all!

That sounds lovely sam.4000!

Thanks to all for your wishes, it's my left arm that's aching the most, I'll have a hot shower later this morning which will hopefully soothe it nicely!

I don't know if I'm 'allowed' to ask this on here, but if any of you are interested in sponsoring me, this is what we're doing.....

If you're interested, please PM me and I'll give you the details of the charity etc xx

living social have a6 month sub to birchbox for £38,not wanting to tempt anyone:rotfl:but any ideas what Birch box is like as never tried it?

Thanks for posting rosemary. I have bought this deal. Emma's subscription to glossybox had come to an end and I was seriously considering renewing it all in the name of vicarious research of course. This deal gives me 3 extra months for roughly the same price. I think the products look pretty good in it as well.

I think I'm using a cast off from one of her previous glossboxes today. A Paul Mitchell hair treatment. My hair needs anything that will condition it at the mo as I've killed it with a hair colour - one of the new mask type ones. Plus it went really dark. MrM said I looked like Morticia Adams. Looking forward to trying the Elastaciser (sp??).

Morning all!

Can I just say a big fat OOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!! :eek:

I fell down the flamin' stairs in the wee small hours this morning (I've been up since midnight), my own fault as I slipped on the last step which had discarded dirty washing on it, and fell right on my left arm on half the stairs and half the laminate! No lasting injuries but my arm is aching, hope it goes away as I've got a charity team plane pull on Monday

Take care kadison. x

I didn't get around to trying the lavender one but am going to order one of these. I can't get instore to smell it first so am going to bite the bullet and order one.

No further UUs to report just yet but have painted my nails and tried all my new OPI colours now. My faves are Lost on Lombard, Embarca Dare You and Alcatraz Rocks. I do like the Muir Muir on the Wall one in certain light - in the office it looked a lovely mauve colour yet in daylight looked slate grey.

Am today wearing Love Peace and OPI which looks very much like Germanicure by OPI to me.

I also bought a Sanctuary Spa Daydream candle in Boots, they had a 1/3 off but they only had one left, just as well really.

feeling very annoyed as just had a delivery of pearl beads from Amazon and they came from China:mad:they look cheap and nasty despite supposedly being 60% off the full price and when I looked on the page to order the seller came up as *********(U.K)it is only if you click on the sellers name that you can see it is in fact not the U.K but china:mad::mad::mad:I have written a review and complained about this....I know it is not a toiletry thing but guess the same can apply to any items and feel this is wrong.I oppose china,s "human rights" and never knowingly buy any Chinese items and think it is wrong of amazon to sell things in a manner likely to confuse,any thoughts?

Have a uu

Champneys Thai Royale Body Scrub - Love this range but think it might be discontinued now. I have a little bit of the matching shower gel and body cream to use up.

Rosemary - the same thing happened to me on ebay years ago with a phone charger, took forever to arrive and I would never have bought had I known where it was coming from.
