Other ins :

Moshi monsters baby wipes. Bought for my holiday, WNB, the strawberry scent is slightly strange.
Perspirex antiperspirant to replace the Dri -Clor product. It's not as harsh so WMA.

I LOVE the smell of these although it wasn't the baby wipes I got it was wee packs of hand wipes

Went on a bliss Spree :eek: with the 'excuse' it's to make my skin nice for the wedding, I really have no hope! (Although that is a little true)

I'm in love with Clinique eye cream too but ATM I only have 2 wee freebie tester pots hmmm

Finally collected my online order so IN:

57-62. Sanctuary body butter 100ml x 6
63-68. Sanctuary Mande Lular body souffle 100ml x 6
69-74. Sanctuary Relax Cocooning body butter 100ml x 6

Has well and truly messed up my numbers! :eek: and 18 body butters is really heavy!!

UU no 11 (26) boots extracts cranberry scrub: WNBA it's barely scrubby at all! Not sure if this is an old formula as opened a mango one and it's a sugar scrub-much better but seems to leave a 'film' on the skin

heading the right way i've had 3 INS and 11 OUTS this month so far
only managed 3 of the 6 on my pan list but still working my way through the others and if they dont gets used up this months they'll be on next months.

i feel its sort of cheating that im targeting all the smaller bottles and jars in my stash first just to clear some out.

todays UUs
BS chocomania body scrub, nice and scrubby but its like rubbing yourself in mud, and you end up bathing in grey water with a very dirty scum line to wash off the bath afterwards WDNBA (it was a gift so i feel decidedly ungrateful that i didnt like this range of products)
M&S busy but beautiful soak! bath cream, OK but nothing really special.

1x treseme conditioner and the mini mark hill condioner - didnt like this so wont buy again

No, it's not cheating because you are still using things up. Admittedly it is a lot easier to use the sachets and smaller items first, but at least it feels like you're making progress quickly and it clears a bit of space.

I have a huge make up bag full of sachets and samples that I found recently. I'm just trying to plough my way through them all by alternating them with the bigger long haul job products.

Hopefully I'll have a couple of use ups to report after my shower later.

Right I have a large amount of ins so I'll just apologise now...

first 2 outs - no 7 cleansing water 200ml hg, love this and have another in the stash that is coming straight out to replace
philip kingsley dry shampoo 50ml wnba prefer the cheaper batiste

out to mum DHC cleansing oil cant use this on my skin

the ins!
From Boots yesterday
Biotherm lipbalm and hand cream 50ml - paid £19.50 for these, and got £17 in points, and couldnt resist! I've heard great things about the pair of them and I'm getting through my hand cream pretty well (excuses, excuses!) so didnt feel too bad

Clinique ttdo cleansing balm and undereye mascara - the mascara will be needed v soon, so though I'd buy the pair when there was a deal on.
Got the beauty bonus free - mascara and lipbalm which I'm keeping, foundation which wasnt included and I need to pick up in store, face cream, face wash and eye cream which I've whacked straight on ebay as otherwise I know it'll just stay in the stash for ages! Will count them as outs when they actually go! Paid £33 for the above, but got £2.50 in points, and will hopefully get a few quid for the outs.

From m and s - 2 murad giftsets in the sale £28 for the two. have wanted to try Murad for ages, so thought I'd give a load of trial sizes a go. Murad renewing cleanser and refreshing cleanser 45ml each, Day cream 30ml 22ml, 2 serums, 10ml each, eye cream 4ml, and 2 night creams, 17ml and 7.5ml.

And then (oh god...) 2 orders arrived this morning (the hermes man knows my name now!)
feel unique order
got Miss Dior 100ml on sale for £30ish when sale, code, quidco combined.

And Elemis beauty treasures set for about £54ish when combining the above offers. Got inside the 50ml pcmc, 30ml enzyme peel, and 150ml cream cleanser which I'll keep, and 100ml frangipani oil and 400ml milk bath which I'm going to have to ebay along with the vanity case as I've spent far too much!

And a Gatineau set, with a 50ml face cream, and 75ml face exfoliator for about £17.50 when offers done. Also got a Caudalie night cream 3ml, and a la vie est belle 1.5ml free.

And finally got a Decleor ylang ylang serum on sale for £24ish, which is hg. I've put a load of stuff on ebay, so next week should hopefully have some outs, and also with have some outs for mothers day, but even so I have rather messed it all up this month! Off to go hide under the stairs haha!

Woah you had a good day! Like you say though if you are going to Ebay some items it offsets both your stash and purse.

Another UU:

Benefit It's Potent eye cream. This was Emma's however as I said before she wasn't really using it and I was sick of dusting it!! Quite a nice product but a bit too creamy. I may have had problems had I used it for longer ie may have developed milia from it.

Am going to open up my Clinique All About Eyes later.

I have bought something today too but not toiletry related. Have gone for the Yankee Candle TSV. Thought it was really good value and am pleased that for once they are selling the votives in pairs as I like to burn 2 at a time.

Everything is spluttering at the moment... I am amazed at how my tiny 15ml tube of Lacura Mature Eye Cream is still managing to produce globules of product. I will cut it open of course when nothing emerges from the tube but that looks to be a way off still, although it could be fooling me.
It was Amazon Vine night last night (this is when Amazon offer me targeted free items to choose from to review). I was offered a Remington hairdryer but turned it down as I have a lovely Braun one from last year. No toiletries as such this week but next week we get to pick from the leftovers of what people didn't want.
What I did get was a Roberts compact digital radio (wanted a digital radio for the kitchen as I listen to 6Music) and a remote controlled car for my grandson. The car has rubbish reviews, though.

Morning!


59. Philosophy Cranberry Medley 60ml - smells divine (and the smell really lasts!) and is very moisturising without taking ages to absorb or being sticky. However, given the price I doubt I WBA as I get through lotions so quickly! Not sure if you can even buy this on its own anyway. I've been using the fruitcake trio (maple scrub and vanilla cake mix shower gel) and it's fab - but does make me want cake! I have another two sets stashed but likely to GA as presents as they make a lovely gift in the tin.

I got this set for my birthday in Jan. Have already UU the vanilla cake mix shower gel and the pecan scrub. Not started the lotion yet as have had another one on the go. Really loved the shower gel though, will be buying a full sized one once the stash has gone down a bit!
