  • Wasn't such a great day for me with five INs , following the arrival of my second parcel delivery in as many days. Oops , I was hoping it might be a bit slow and arrive sometime in March :rotfl:


    Still most pleased with most items in this Elemis goodie bag; although one of which I might just TA or GA before I start. OMG Frangipani Monoi Body Oil; whoa what's that all about? I put a couple of drops on my arm to test it out and the smell nearly knocked me out. No way would I ever want to be smothering myself in that stuff.

    I have some uu

    Elemis Quiet Mind Bubble Bath - 300ml, have more of these in the stash and whilst I really like it I wouldn't pay Elemis prices for bubble bath.

    Herbal Essences Beautiful Ends Shampoo - 400ml, this was DD's, we are replacing it with an Avon one as she has been using this for ages.

    HE Beautiful Ends Intensive Mask - this was OK, it really just coats the hair in silicone as most of these things do, hair felt nice but does it really do anything??

    Guinot Mask Essential - 50ml, this has been in use forever, I have been buying this off and on for years and will buy again but not for a while. It is a pain to remove as it is waterproof and can't be just washed off.

  • Just posting and running, will read posts later, sorry!

    Is anyone going for the Alpha H TSV today?
    I don't need any cleanser but it is such a good price and cheaper than buying the liquid gold alone!

    Decisions, decisions.
    Off grocery shopping now so will see if it's still available when I get home.

  • UU no 14/ Lush comforter. HG for me I have a couple more in the stash! I should add that I don't normally stash this but I did stock up a bit as it appeared in Xmas sale

  • hello everyone! was just wondering if anyone had tried the alpha h liquid gold and could vouch on its effectiveness? I've got combination skin (terribly greasy and quite spotty t zone, but then it goes very dry and flaky). xxx

    I accidentally put QVC on whilst having my coffee...yeah I have some ins to declare when they arrive! I've gone about 3 years without buying anything from QVC and now I've had two separate orders from them in the same month! xxx

  • Does anyone know what brand nus is? I have a facial scrub that igot as a gift have been using it but its quite terrible, it doesn't even feel like scrub! Just wondered where it come from!

    I would like to join if possible? I have just moved and unpacking everything made me realise how much I had!! So I'm going to try really hard to use everything up and only buy essentials!

    Currently working on a body butter and body scrub from a gift set!
