    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!

    How are you getting 20% off? can't find any 20% codes anywhere?

    There are a few around I think: latenight gives you 20% off although some people are saying it's not working now. Another code is lfnosav and that gives 15% off.

    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.

    Ah ok thanks, I may not bother then. They seem to be very expensive.
  • Just pre-ordered the Naked 3 as a gift from Hubbie to me for Christmas! :o
    20% code no longer works but got the 15% one to work so got it for £31.55. Says delivery by 21st December.

    Also 2% Quidco.

    Sorry short and sweet, head pounding.
    :heart: Ageing is a privilege not everyone gets.
  • That sounds like such a gorgeous bath - can't wait to use up two more bubble bars so I can buy a Christmas Eve!
    How does Potion smell? All my Lushies recommend it to me, but I'm a little worried about buying Lush stuff online, scent can be so different to what you imagine!

    Well....I didn't like it at first, I got it for the same reasons, because everyone raved about it. And then it came and I was like...oh...it smells VERY rosey, and not in a rose jam way which I like. BUT saying that it has grown on me, it is a nice delicate smell and my skin has improved bucketloads since using it regularly :T
    Do you want me to send you a sample so you can try it first? If yes, PM me ur address :D

    Another UU at chateau stash
    -Batiste Dry shampoo- got another in use but will replace soon as always need a spare one justin case :D HG an all that..

    I'm having a bath in a bit so will be reporting more UU tomorrow :T
    Don't turn a slip up into a give up:D

    :j excellent! I am tempted by so many other things on the site, especially with the discount :eek: Hope you feel better soon.

    One UU this evening and the last thing on my PP list for this month :T
    186 - Sanctuary Salt Scrub 60g - WMBA, love the smell of this and it did leave my skin feeling soft but slightly greasy too. Such a lovely smell though. I expect I will be tempted by the Sanctuary stuff in the Christmas sales (and the Lush stuff and Soap and Glory) :rotfl:

  • Got a lovely parcel in the post yesterday, from Emsjune78 - thank you so so much, that really made my day :D So generous of you :)
    So I have INs!

    7. Philip Kingsley Elasticizer 40ml (unfortunately my HG, so expensive!)
    8. L'Occitane Creme Masque sachet
    9. L'Occitane Brightening Moisture Mask sachet

    I love L'Occitane and face masks, so this was a really sweet addition :) She also sent me some lovely make up sampley bits (which I won't count as I don't have a make up stash list).
    So thank you very much! <3

    Morning all.

    I have a few splutterers on the go so should have some uu in the last few days of the month.

    I have looked at pictures of the Naked 3 and it does look really nice but I have Naked and Naked 2 and lots of other lovely neutral palettes so I haven't pre-ordered, when the feeding frenzy has died down and it is available easily I will have a look at it in Debenhams and see how I feel about it then.

    I have ins:o

    Philosophy Cinnamon Buns Bath & Shower Gel (my fave)
    Philosophy Amazing Grace Bath & Shower Gel

    These were bought from Boots with £5 off £30 spend on Philosophy and 500 bonus points.

    There are more

    Philosophy Amazing Grace EDT
    Estee Lauder Double Wear Concealer
    Burberry Weekend EDP
    L'Oreal Charcoal Face Wash (for DH, he really rates this)

    The Amazing Grace EDT had the £5 off £30 spend too and it was triple points on the whole thing. I had to do two separate orders as the bonus points were knocking off the triple points.

    The Estee Lauder concealer is very good, it doesn't crease or budge all day.

    Benefit had up to 50% off some of their kits recently and despite putting them in my basket on two occasions and hovering over the pay now button I didn't buy, I loved the look of them and already had one of them but I would have only been buying because they had money off and in the last fortnight I have had to buy a new washing machine and dishwasher as well as all the Christmas shopping so I need to stop spending on myself.

    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!

    tried option 3 on one side of the card they left(strangely this is not mentioned on the other side...only options 1 and 2)but the web address they gave apparently does not exist!!!!and the main website is no help.will check with the p.o when I go for the other one tho....DH says he ordered two things but they should both have been from the UK and as one started in Paris it must be mine!!!(oh yes that YSL evening dress I forgot I had ordered:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:)

    Hi all,

    Two UUs to report - Body Shop Mango shower gel. It was part of a gift set given a pressie and whilst it was lovely I do find BS a bit out of my cheap & cheerful price range to buy for myself. And Radox bubble bath (dark red, not sure of the smell) WBA.

    Now want to use up the Avon shower gel I'm 90% of the way through before xmas...I just hope someone buys me some toiltries for Xmas or I may have to buy some shower gel myself.

    Not sure if anyone on here can help but I was wondering if anyone bought fragrance oils. I want to make soap for Christmas presents but not sure what to buy or where from. There seems to be a vast amount of shops online and as I'm not sure what I need to be buying don't want to end up paying more than I have to.

    Thanks.
