    The last time I looked at this thread was back in March this year. I've been a bit AWOL as since going back to work from maternity leave this time last year I've struggled to keep up with you all.


    I hope you're all keeping your unnecessary toiletry buying to a minimum and enjoying using up what you've already got.


    I've not bought anything new and am slowly working my way through my stash but it is going really slowly. Will get there one day


    Will try and keep up from the December thread once it gets started.
    Did owe £9,951.96

    Alos found a new shop Tiger selling all sorts of stuff at great prices e.g 3 dinner candles for £1:):):):)(pity they don,t do online shopping)

    Oh Tiger's really good fun - a bit hit and miss but good for candles, paper napkins, those standard reading glasses that cost a couple of quid, spices and cheap stationary.

    Purely in the spirit of MSE and not as an enabler, I have just read on Emma Hardie's FB page that Moringa Balm will be Q*C's beauty product of the month for December. STV thinks that it will be 200ml plus 2 cloths. Product of the month is always free p&p. No idea what the price will be yet, so don't know if this can be beat by buying 2 x 100ml anywhere. When it was P of Month in March it cost £44.64 without any cloths.

  • Hopefully last two IN of the month for me, Garnier Simply Essentials 2 in 1 makeup remover x 2, straight replacement for a recent UU and were on offer in Boots 2 for £4, rather that £3.25 each I think it was or £2.50 in Tesco. Great stuff and will definitely get used. So tired, work was manic, that's what I get for having yesterday as leave!!

    Ooh thanks for the heads up - have never tried the moringa balm before and really want to.

    Again, not wishing to be an enabler but you can pre-order the Urban Decay Naked 3 palette on look fantastic at the moment with 20% off :j

    Has anyone tried the Aromatherapy Associates bath and shower oils before? I keep hearing beauty bloggers mention them and would love to try them

    why do I get two parcels undelivered when I am out?one being now at a depot 25mins away:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:I don't remember ordering anything so am guessing they are for DH work stuff but guess who will have to collect them as he is away on business:mad:

    If you go to the post office website, you can ask for the item to be left at your nearest post office branch. They charge 50p for it, but it will save you 25 miles of fuel!

    I UU a little travel size bottle of Aloe Vera shampoo this morning. Wracking my brain for what else is low right now, but have done all my quick hits I think!
  • Evening all,

    I am a bit late but don't think I have posted any UU for November yet! (yes I know its December this weekend but real life has been a right pain! There are a few of us having a busy time of it at work it would seem)

    I have UU 2 shower gels, which are one of my worst stash areas so :j

    Avon Naturals Vanilla - WBA but it has been long discontinued, I loved the smell of this because it smelled just like my Tiny Tears doll when I was little. Still have most of the matching body lotion left though.

    No 7 Blissful body wash, GWP size, WNBA - didn't smell like anything much to me.

    Just the 35 showers gels left then :eek:. I really want to buy another Snow Fairy from Lush but know I can't justify it for several years yet!

    Also TA a Liz Earle mascara because it had been open for several months, probably WBA as it is bunny friendly and didn't smudge. Definitely prefer it to the No 7 I have opened to replace it with its scratchy plastic comb.

    I have cut open mini tubes of LE C&P and LE body cream so will be applying generously for the next few days!

    Have a good evening everyone!

    I'm off for a look! I was going to check the price anyway to see if it was too expensive for my brother to buy me for xmas or not (and if I don't buy it then its not really too naughty an in!)

    ETA: darn, I think £37 is pushing it a bit! Also I was going to put "look fantastic naked" in the internet search box to find the website but thought better of it just in time!

    I had a mini AA bath oil last Christmas but I was underwhelmed, it had plenty of fragrance but it didn't do anything to justify the price. I think all the bloggers just jump on the bandwagon.
