    This is very odd! I couldn't see your stash photo and only found out it was there when I went to quote you!

    I edited and added it afterwards!

    I will get around to my stash pics, bit sidelined lately, plus I smashed my iPad this morning so that's £200 gone :(
    :

    Have you got accidental cover on your household insurance?
    If so, depending on your excess it might be worth looking into.

    One UU today.

    Indeed Labs Hydraluron 30ml :( HG product. Cut tube open and not a scrap left in there. Wish they did a 50ml tube. I'm down to my last tube so panic setting in as I like a spare in stock and it's not on offer at the moment. :eek:
    :heart: Ageing is a privilege not everyone gets.

    Two more UU, I'm on a roll today!

    7. BS Passion Fruit Body Butter 200ml; WMBA, I've used this for years and it does a good job of dealing with my dry skin, not as rich as the mango one but I much prefer the smell of this. Slightly sticky. I have another in my stash which DD bought me for Christmas but I won't be opening it yet.

    8. Rituals Sakura Scrub 200g; WBA, lovely scent (not as nice as their pink range but that's my HG). It's a sugar scrub, relatively chunky but not coarse, feels gentle in use and the oils leave my skin feeling beautifully nourished. I could have got away with not moisturising but I was determined to use up the last of the body butter :D

    DH is out rehearsing so I'm cwtched up with my boys <3
  • It's been a slow month so far, but I'm on a run of use ups:

    House of Holland body scrub - a gift last year, not too keen on it (smelled like fairy liquid).

    Garnier minerals roll-on deodourant. This seems to be my go-to roll on at the moment, I already have another one.

    Wow the thread has been moving quickly - I love it! Love sitting down with a cuppa to catch up, was particularly looking forward to hearing about people's Boots sale INS!

    Val that smashbox palette looks gorgeous! Another one to add to the wishlist :rotfl:

    I also looked at that blogpost and thought that I have that amount of products in use!

    Loving the stash pictures everyone. Rosemary I hope your hot water is fixed soon and congratulations to your OH on his new job emsjune! Great news. Hope your bathroom is all finished soon.

    Please post a picture of your cambridge satchel when it arrives wondercollie - would love to see! What size did you go for in the end?

    Hope you can claim for your Ipad on insurance kadison. Would love to see a pic of your new nail varnishes and stash!

    I tried to look at the Boots sale on my phone at work today but the website was a nightmare. Might pop into my local store at the weekend but doubt there will be anything left. The website drives me up the wall too, everything just shows as out of stock and it crashes loads. I would quite like the sugar crush S&G set, saw loads when it was 50% off but thought it was still too expensive. Would buy one at 70% off though but probably won't be able to get one.

    I did however place an order on Boots today for the new Revlon Colourburst matte balms - have been waiting for these to come out for ages and was panicking that they would be sold out :o I don't know why as I have loads of lip products. Ordered 4 and used a code for £2 off each. Hopefully will be able to pick them up tomorrow or Friday so will declare them as INS then. Now I have looked at the colours again I have added another 4 to my wishlist. Oh dear. Lip products and eye shadow palettes are my real weakness.

    Evening all.
    I really don't think she has seen this thread. I feel that she may need a little more training on how to buy toiletries.

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
  • I totally bottled it on the Satchel. Dithered for days over the 13 inch tan colour (like my old school bag) or the 15 inch "vintage" with the blue trim and handle on top. Deciding factor was son 2 who said get the one you really want. So I did. That and Paypal offering a $30 cash back when shopping at Hudson's Bay. Mission accomplished.


    I'm hopeless at posting pictures, so at least you know which one I clicked on.


    Oh, got to ask one last question about going to Spain at the end of the month. How much cash do I need for three weeks? We're going half board (breakfast & dinner). So far I've salted away 1200 euro. How widely are credit cards used? I'm one of those people who charge everything and pay the bill at the end of the week.


    So all help appreciated.

    Hooray another UU -

    7 - REN Glycolactic Radiance Renewal Mask 5ml - WMB, got 3 full face applications out of this sample which I was really impressed by. The product was pretty good, made my face feel really smooth but not sure about any other benefits. Would maybe buy if it was on offer.

    Also realised that I forgot to declare another IN from late Christmas present -

    15 - No 7 nail varnish
  • Boys in bed, I'm bored and pottering.

    GA: L'Oreal Studio Line Hot Straight Spray 200ml. DD mentioned at the weekend that she wanted to get some heat protector spray, so I rooted around and found this. I don't like it, because I can feel it in my hair, IYKWIM. We'll see how she gets on with it, but either way it's all good as it's soon to be out of my house :D

    TA: No7 Pressed Powder Compact. I've had this for donkey's years and the hinge has finally broken after wobbling for at least 18 months. No shame to it whatsoever. New compact already in stash, it's an elf one and the brush I had in the old one won't fit. BUT!! It's narrow and flat and long, and it works brilliantly as a cheek contour brush. Chiselled cheekbones ahoy! I can use my RT contour brush for my powder highlighters now :T
