    Can anyone recommend me a good night cream? I'm currently using Trilogy Rosapene which I LOVE but don't really want to pay £30 for a jar when I run out. Preferably I'd like something cruelty free, thanks in advance :)
    Never say never

    I just can't resist free stuff!

    me too :T

    Thanks for the link. Don't really have that many facial products so this is a guilt free freebie for me!

    Finally got round to updating my list.
    Came on to feel good about a ebay sale only to find I hadn't included it in the first place :( boo! Just waiting on payment on some more that were included though :D

    I love Liz Earle Skin Repair as a night cream. I like the Normal/Combination one but you could order the Dry variety if you wanted a thicker cream.
    Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!

    I just had one of those major What... they are free?! moments... But may have ordered some too ;)


    I live in Worcester but touch wood haven't been affected by the flooding. It's terrible my heart goes out to them. My little sisters friend is currently living with the river passing through her house, and they are STILL living there!! Their shower is downstairs and has to take her wellies to the shower with her... must be horrible!

    Thanks, I'll put it on my 'to try' list :)

    I also may have gone to the Manuka Doctor website and ordered the Try Me Kit from there, free with £2.50 p&p... Oops! Well the Trilogy Rosapene has Manuka honey in it so might be similar... That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it :p

    A couple more OUTs

    34 - ELF natural mascara, lengthening and moisturising. Was just a little too natural for me. I like huge lashes! TA WNBA
    35 - Dolce and Gabana The One sample - actually really lovely and I probably would buy it...*glances at perfume stash*
    36 - Benefit The're real - love this, best so far WBA in a heartbeat!
    37 - Body Shop Aloe toner - fairly standard...but the end of my toner stash! Woo hoo!
    38 - Lush snow fairy - om nom nom. WBA at Christmas ;)
    Cookie, I think you're tame. :heart2:

    One UU to declare from my PP list:

    Soap and glory - the righteous butter. I liked this - rubbed in well and liked the smell. Although there are probably better body butters out there. WMBA on boots offer at Christmas and would happily use if gifted.

    One IN to declare:
    Dove deodorant - none in stash and current deodorant near finishing so necessary purchase. AND managed to avoid buying anything unnecessary whilst in boots!

    I wonder whether the customer MrM visited was a fellow MSE lady who had decanted shower gel into the handwash pump then?

    I'm sure I've seen this as a handwash in Wilko's last summer. It is a seasonal one, I think. OS handwashes do seem to appear and disappear regularly.
    Atm, I'm using an A!di Carrageen Moss handwash that is absolutely lovely. Going down rapidly!
