home alone after taking DH to airport for his training in Copenhagen
I will be joining him for a weekend before he returns and looked at booking in at Noma.....no chance as waiting list very long,still who wants to eat ants anyway?
trying to be good and not be tempted by sales of toiletries or clothes.
off back to dishy dentist tomorrow to see if he can hopefully save my poor tooth after several weeks and three lots of anti biotics!
still no sign of beauty bible stuff bit annoying as paid up in April!
did get some facial oil to trial from boots plus two nail polish(well thought it was two till I realised one was sparkles to put on wet nails)plus shampoo sachets and clarins sachets from magazines0 -

Evening,
Returned yesterday from our first holiday as a family of 3.
No IN's to report.
UU's-
30ml (I think) of marc Jacobs Dot- WBA, bought this 2 years ago in duty free. Made a determined effort to use it up. Nice for day or night wear.
30ml next just pink shower gel/bath foam x2- WNBA, don't like the fragrance but were from a gift set.
Dove deodorant- HG product, only thing I can use without coming out in a rash under my arms
In the next week I expect to use up:
imperial leather foamburst shower gel
kiehls amino acid shampoo
v05 shampoo and conditioner sachet
harajuku lovers perfumeApril £5 a day challenge- £15.05/£1500 -
Hi everyone, hope you have all been enjoying the lovely weather.
I have another UU to declare, 150ml Decleor prolagene gel, WDBA and have already replaced it with a mahussive 400ml bottle from stash.
I also have a few ins, 2 x Creighton's Argan Oil Shampoo and 2 x conditioner, they were only £1 each and smell lovely. Got them from The Original Factory Shop, only went in for a concealer! Got 3 concealers and 2 travel size mineral foundation powder sets, only £1 each too! That shop is lethal to my will power and my purse!! Good job I don't declare make up!!
Now for some much needed beauty sleep, been digging flower beds all afternoon!!
Night all

emsjune, never mind the spree, I think I walls very restrained in not burying her under the patio! :rotfl: KT, she started off saying it was another friend if hers who had invited everyone but then, on facing the Spanish Inquisition, it emerged she'd locked all her Dad's booze in the shed so no one drank that, and she'd covered all the sofas with blankets etc to make sure no one spilled on them! Sounds far too organised for something impromptu. I have sent her home to face the wrath of her Dad, I hope he kicked her !!!, verbally!
Another OUT for me...
TA #14: Maybelline Better Skin Foundation Sample; have been trialling this over the weekend and have woken up this morning with a face full of spots. Not whoppers but there must be ten angry, little pimples around my mouth and on my cheeks tooJust what I need on a Monday morning.

Hapy belated birthday emsjune78!
UU:
14/132. Ojon Damager Reverse conditioner 250ml - WBA, same as shampoo.
15/133. L'Occitane Divine Serum 7ml - WMBA though not sure this is needed if using a decent moisturiser.
16/134. John Frieda Hair Mask sachet 25ml - WMBA for reasons previously stated.MFW 2017 #123 2018: £1,852.64/£39,200 (4.7%)0 -
KT2802- I had an Eyeko eyeliner a while ago, it was in a little set with a mascara and I think I bought it from What's in your handbag, it was a felt tip type eyeliner and it was rubbish, there was no product on the tip at all even from new so I just couldn't draw a line with it. The mascara is really nice though.
UU
M&S Sparkling Verbena shower gel 250ml, WMBA, its cheap and did the job and its cruelty free.
Elemis Quiet Mind Bubble Bath 300ml, this smells lovely but apart from that there is nothing special about it to justify the price, I have several bottles all part of sets or gwp but I won't pay full price for it.
Ren T Zone Balancing Day Fluid 5ml, this is nice and I have replaced it with another 5ml tube.
Champneys Skin Comfort Body Wash 50ml, WBA, DD used this without any irritation to her eczema which has flared up again with the warmer weather.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

Fizz, sorry to hear your DD let you down so badly, she wont realise till shes much older how much danger she put herself in pulling such a stupid stunt, those sort of parties can get out of hand so quickly. glad no serious harm came to her or the house! hopefully a lesson learned.
GA the 2 sachets of shampoo and conditioner i got to DD3, serum and moisturiser are spluttering.
hope all are wellSPC~12 ot 124
