    The purple one is bathos i think. Violet scented.http://lush.pbworks.com/w/page/19637198/Bathos%20Bubble%20Bar%20Slice
    It is one of my favourites:)

    I thought it might be, but if so then I'm really disappointed - I love violet and didn't really think this was all that :( May be just 'cause it was really old...

    Afternoon all! Hope everyone's well?

    Waited in for this person from facebook who hasn't turned up yet again, she's meant to be buying that DKNY perfume from me but I think she's just taking the wotsit! :mad:

    On the upside, my Lancome order arrived today! I wanted to get the full-size dreamtone (bought some samples last week) and the Lancome website had the best deal I could find, £69 for the serum but a GWP worth £39, worked it out on my spreadsheet though and the GWP is actually worth about £55! :D Couple with that the two free samples, worth about another £10, and the perfume sample comes in the sweetest bottle! It also smells divine so that's going on my post-xmas sales list, not that I NEED to add anything to it :eek: :o

    So about £135 worth of stuff for £69, all INs obviously!

    Dreamtone - Fair 01 40ml

    GWP
    Absolu Nu Lipstick - 302 Voile de Rose 1.6g
    Instant Eye Cleanser 125ml
    Multi-Lift Night Cream 15ml
    Softening Cleansing Fluid 50ml
    Softening Hydrating Toner 50ml

    Samples
    Hypnose Mascara 2ml
    La Vie Est Belle EDP 4ml.....And how sweeeet is this? Awww!

    Trying to hold back from a second order, but I need to see if this serum is worth the money first, the samples I bought seem to suggest it is but we shall see :)

  • A UU today: Seaweed soap, complimentary from a hotel stay a while ago.

    Also bought some new toothpaste, but it hardly seems worth declaring it, because the old tube will be finished within the week...

    I've been buying again, seriously in danger this month! :rotfl:

    But Bio Oil 200ml is going through at Boots as 3 for 1 instead of 3 for 2, so 3 huge bottles for £20! I won't stock up further, 3 bottles will last me the year easily :D

  • SO, I've had a think, and now I have a list of my 17 normal UUUs or things I'd like to focus on finishing:

    Yaaaaay UUUs :-D
    I've been having a think about the mystery bath bomb.
    Was it in an egg shape? If not, was it a large or small one?
    I am going to solve this! It sounds like it might have been a candy fluff egg which smells like snow fairy :)
    The bath that you had sounded really lovely and very pink :)
    Don't turn a slip up into a give up:D
