    31. UU Lise Watier Resist Age (10ml tube) I think it was a serum because it was to be used before moisturizer or foundation. I liked it. I actually think I've used it before but put out by a different company, if you know what I mean. It's made in France but so are a lot of these products.


    Glad to hear the wedding and honeymoon went well. I'm very impressed with Sunday's used up list!


    WonderCollie is at my feet trying to guilt me. It's walk time. He's nearly finished his antibiotics and some of the missing fur is starting to regrow. He's booked into the dog salon at the end of the month for the full spa experience. He is now a liverwurst addict. Sits and stares at the container and then licks his chops.


    Mother's Day here, my sons always get me hanging baskets and they are beautiful. Mr. Collie authorized the purchase of a Pandora type bracelet with 3 charms for Mothers Day for me, so being a good doggie Mum I went and did what I was told.


    A bit of a hiccup yesterday. Three nailpolishes at under $2.50 each (Rimmel, a limited edition L'Oreal and a Sally Hansen Salon formula which I love) and then to make it worse, I found a Lise Watier limited edition eyeshadow palette at our version of TK Maxx. Half price and gorgeous, it was last autumns Tartan collection.


    Better go walk the Collie. Hope you are all great!

    Welcome "home" sundaysgirl, so lovely to read about your special day and honeymoon too!

    UU #79: Tesco Freshmint Toothpaste 100ml

    sjprmc, when you said you were expecting the decorators and worried about spending as a result, I thought you meant Aunt Flo :rotfl:

    Am bushed so off to take my slap off. Hoping the EL makeup remover will deal with the Dermablend foundation!

    Hello ladies,

    Hope everyone is well.
    Glad you had a lovely wedding and honeymoon Sunday'sgirl

    UU so far:
    Boots extracts cocoa butter scrub. WNBA one of those oily scrubs I just don't like. I have one more mini one left in the stash. PP item.

    Beauticology strawberry swirl shower gel 100ml. WNBA the smell was lovely in the bottle, just didn't transfer on to skin.

    L'oreal everriche shampoo sample sachet. I have another in the stash. Probably wouldn't buy as try not to buy L'oreal products. Although it is difficult as they own so many companies :(

    Sanctuary body scrub 200ml. Lovely OH has again finished this off. I think I have a few more minis to dig out.

    2x eBay outs.


    Now for the INs :o

    3x mini aromatherapy associates products with Marie Claire
    Mini porefessional with Elle
    Suddenly Madam perfume (completely unnecessary)
    Cien day cream
    Cien daily face scrub

    Have a good day all.

    morning all
    glad the wedding and honeymoon was good sundaysgirl, welcome back.

    couple of UUs
    weleda birch cellulite oil only a small sample bottle
    sample of fendi perfume (wasnt on my list but found lurking in a pot on my dresser so all used up now.) all the perfumes Dh has bought me and he noticed i was wearing something different, he commented on how nice it smelled and asked what it was, i said fendi and got the reply dont recall buying you that one. said it was just a sample id found, could tell by his face he was mentally storing the name for future use. ive tried telling him ive got so much perfume stashed if i spray it twice a day every days it will still last me about 5 years!

    nail polish i put on friday morning is already chipped and peeling so not impressed.

    Welcome back sundaysgirl - glad you had a fab time.

    Wondercollie - glad your dog is on the mend.

    mrs-moneypenny - I have to be very careful around my birthday and Christmas about what I say I like as DH will jump on it and buy me it with a sigh of relief but I maybe only liked it a bit and would have preferred something else.

    No uu to report but we are over a third of the way through May and I don't have any ins, I am feeling very pleased with myself.

    4 UU's this weekend, two from PP, and one IN.

    IN first, Coconut oil. I use this for so many things, and my hair was looking so frazzled so I repurchased and used some last night as a mask. Hair is so soft and shiny today. HG

    OUTS
    * Testing shampoo bottle no. 2 - Tend to use this as bubble bath as it has sulphates, but I did use it last night as a clarifying shampoo.
    * Lush FUN - I noticed that this was leaking the other day, (it's supposed to be something like a tube of dough with many purposes) so I made a note to use it up for my next bubble bath. WNBA, nice bubbles but too messy and too much effort.
    * Soap & Glory Clean On Me shower gel (PP) - Finally! I really liked the sell of this, but as I prefer to have baths this shower gel lasted forever! WMBA
    * Kiss My Face Sunscreen Factor 30 - Really like this sunscreen. Applies really well and doesn't leave a white cast. Very hydrating, maybe a bit too much? WBA

    Yay!
    No more goo hoarding!

    ENABLING POST FOR POLISH LOVERS

    Sally magpies is having a 50% off sale with code SNAP. Suffice to say if I counted polish in my stash I would be on the naughty step for some time!

    Adding to this to say that the Pound Shop Jess nail varnish is actually lovely. I have the Flash Harry, which is a clear polish with multi coloured glitter in. Took a while to dry but lasted a week with no chips. 2 coats. ;)
    Cookie, I think you're tame. :heart2:

    So it's not just me then! I was surprised, because my bathroom is always freezing too!
