  • Exciting OUT post for today:T

    Molton Brown Citrus bashukan shower gel - Got this from TK Maxx after Xmas, think it's been discontinued now but was really nice and had a lovely woody lemony smell.

    John Frieda Intensive Repair Mask - WMBA was OK but don't think it was as intensive as it makes out to be. Could do better!

    They recently renamed all the shower gels and body lotions, Bushukan Citrus is now simply Bushukan.

    For anyone who's interested (not in an enabling way), it says the old and new names here...

    Huge hugs to you Clutterfree

    You ladies on here really are a lovely lot :)

    kadison I'm glad to hear your date went really well

    1 more OUT here:

    109 - Tresemme intensive conditioner sachet thing - WNBA, didn't use the whole thing and just threw the rest away as didn't have anything to put it in (wasteful i know). My hair doesn't feel any different after using this. Was slightly easier to comb it through after washing but that's it.

    The PP list is not budging. 1 thing on it is very nearly UU. Rate of UU seems slow this month.

    Thanks Kadison that's good to know. I would buy again as is a really nice smell but I've way too many shower gels in the stash to consider for a while :-( once I've got through the stash I'm going to try to be more selective about what I buy.
    I'm using a Molton Brown body lotion for after the shower and I love that too, makes my legs super soft. That one is Patchouli and Saffron, I'm hoping I can get it again but think it was a limited edition (again from TK Maxx!)

    I've looked and it's on the MB website, so hopefully it will be around once you want it again ;)

    A quick extra UU to declare:

    158/5. Botanics Super Serum Radiant Youth (30ml) - WNBA as I dislike the scent and it sometimes left my skin reddened (easily done, mind you).

    Not much UU'ing happening apart from my Avon Care Family Nurturing Body Lotion.
    WIBA? Yes, great buy when on offer but I spent far too much on Avon last year. It's quite a rich cream that is very similar to Aveeno (but much cheaper). Rubs in well and does the biz. Luckily I discovered the Aldi Dove lookey likeys were very good too.

    Have two pots of the Avon Care Rich Moisture family cream to UU. This is a fairly light cream, suitable for summer, not as heavy as a body butter. Another that I like.

    I agree with all of this! :)

    I'm having a very busy week, working five days which I don't usually do, plus I walked half of Birmingham/Solihull yesterday while my car was in the garage. I was pooped out when Monday morning arrived and I'm counting the hours until it's the weekend again!

    I'm struggling with itchy legs at the moment, they feel like they're on fire :eek: and I have scratched a patch on my calf in my sleep until it's bled :( I don't know what's not agreeing with me, i bought an Aldi 5 blade razor which is doing a great job of defuzzing so I really hope it's not that. The other main contender is the Garnier body lotion I'm using but it came with me to Barcelona with no ill effects so I'm a bit baffled?! Or it could be the rituals shower paste and scrubby mitt combination.

    Whatever it is, I hope it does one soon :( *scratches*

    Where's dippy?! Is she still sitting on May's naughty step?!

    Nothing is running out, I too am having a slow month.

    Clutterfree - I agree with the others. Hope you are OK.

    FizzWhizz - When the weather gets warm my skin can get itchy, it is mainly on my throat and decollatege and drives me mad sometimes.
