    Have a uu

    Estee Lauder Beautiful - 5ml GWP size. I used to wear this many years ago and it was nice to be reminded of it and I really liked using this mini, I stopped wearing it before because I felt it was getting too expensive.

    and now my ins

    Urban Decay Smoked Palette - I have way too many eye palettes and shouldn't have bought this but I have it now.

    Mac Paint Pot in Bare Study.

    To balance that out I am expecting a few more uu before the end of the month, I can hardly believe we are almost into October, where has September gone?

    Oh nooo, when do you get them reviewed so to speak?
    I hope the itching subsides.

    They came off today - nothing special, a nickel allergy like I suspected, and possibly cobalt too, but some other ones might come up over the next few days.

    I think it's good news, as I'm not allergic to perfume or sulfates, so should have no reason not to go back to using them all normally (first time in 4.5 years!) Unfortunately this coincided with the 50% off code for BS, so:

    Almond oil cuticle treatment
    Almond hand cream
    Indian night jasmine shower gel
    Indian night jasmine spray
    Honeymania soap
    Honeymania bath melt
    Vitamin E lotion

    It came to a grand total of £21!

    However, I won't use the shower gel or bath melt til at least next week, and if another patch does come up and it means I can't use them, they will make great Christmas presents!
  • A UU BS sweet pea body butter. I seem to have 4 moisturisers and 4 shower gels open at the moment ops!
    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 sales
  • Indian night jasmine shower gel
    Indian night jasmine spray
    !

    These sound nice, ohhh now I want to try them... :( Maybe I will ask for a sample :-D 50% off is great, good call :D

  • Thanks to Dolly84 and SuziTiger for the congrats - have officially got 6 weeks to go but our first was a month early so could be sooner - eek!

    Few UU's today

    Aveda Shampure GWP size
    Charles worthington Moisture Seal Conditioning Treatment

    Both car boot buys but WDBA as neither really did much for my hair. Shame as I love the fragrance of the Shampure (which I would buy again if I got for 5p like this one)

    S & G I Foam Body Wash - really gone off the smell of S & G stuff lately, think I've overdone it because I bought so much if it. Typical as have loads of S & G products to use up.

    I have some INs to report too - said I wanted to start using more natural stuff and was offered an amazing deal on Neal's Yard products where I could have 40% off anything I ordered today.

    I recently had a Neals Yard facial and the products made my skin look the best it's looked in ages and so I ordered the Rose Facial Wash, Toner and moisturiser. Did get £20 off the RRP though (does that make it acceptable?)

    Think I may sell a couple of high end products out of my stash that have been unopened to recuperate some of the cost though.

  • I still feel really rough and have had the day from hell. I sometimes wish I could just change all my contact details so I wouldn't have family contacting me again.

    OH bought me a 'get better' kit; no toiletries but I am completely spoiled with dvds and chocolates and a huge throw blanket. He is the sweetest man.

    I'm also on the naughty step. I have a terrible nail biting habit and had been thinking about getting acrylics again recently, but baulked at the £50 per set cost at the local salon. So instead, i bought a gel nail kit. I'm only going to count the colours as Ins so:

    Sensationail Scarlet Red 3.29ml
    Sensationail Purple Orchid 7.39ml

    They also have a deal on the website to get four of the colours of £30, they go for £15 each in Boots, so I may have several more INs before the end of the month.

    I absolutely adore the nails, I'm currently wearing scarlet and they went well considering how terrible I am at painting my nails. I'm going to be intrigued to see how long they last on my very short, bitten nails. I paid £15 for a gel polish at a salon previously, which peeled off in under a week, so anything around 7days I will consider very good going. I'm also planning to use my normal nail polishes on top occasionally, as I would when I had acrylics.
