I have a uu
No7 Blissful Body Wash 40ml, WBA, love this whole range.
I also have an in, I needed some bits in Boots and this item was the third item of the 3 for 2, I paid with survey vouchers so no actual cash spent.
S&G Orangasm Shower Cream 500ml. This will go with my Clarins Eau Dynamissante for summer as they smell the same.
I didn't need another shower gel but seeing as this is my first in since mid march I am OK with it.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

Hi All
Hope you have been enjoying the beautiful weather this weekend.
Mcculloch - sorry to hear about your burglary, happened to me once, horrible but as you say at least they didn't take anything irreplaceable.
I have had a couple of UUs this weekend; Lush, Have Your Cake and Eat It soap, WMBA (was part of a Xmas gift set) replaced with L'Occitane Verbena soap from the stash; Boots No7 Beautiful Skin HCC 200ml WDBA, love this and its reasonably priced compared to other brands, I have replaced this with one of my REN HCC from the stash.
That's all folks, have a good Monday

Sorry to hear about the burglary mcculloch; a similar thing happened to me years ago - long before we had laptops and phones but I know what a total pain in the bum it is to lose your handbag.
I had a nice surprise IN today a freebie sample of the new Clinique Custom Smart Serum arrived in the post - having read the blurb I can't wait to give it a try.
I'm going to throw away remains of an Olay 7 in 1 Total Effects Moisturiser 50g - which I had dug out an old travel bag and intended to UU. I had used about half of it previously over a period of time and can't remember having had an issues with it; however when I used it yesterday and it left my face feeling a bit sticky and horrible. I tried it again today and it was still felt clammy on my face long after I got to work so I have decided life's just to darned short to be putting up with that and it's not like I don't have plenty more moisturisers that I would much rather use. :rotfl:Mortgage

Sorry to hear about the burglary mcculloch,think scumbags who break into peoples homes are the worse, my poor old mum had a break in and she was never the same again, keep strong.
just had a lovely weekend in Copenhagen, went to visit DH who is there for two weeks, sadly was ill one evening and could not eat at the expensive place we went to(one of those with hardly anything on the plate and a long list of ingredients)DH ate mine but we felt ripped off and will def give a bad review on trip advisor!A pair of dance shoes came whilst I was away and was shocked as they are HUGE so now having to try and get an exchange as they don't do refunds so bit of a pain
had to dye my hair as grey roots were showing and as did not want to use a permanent colour am now a darker ash blonde(why can,t they do blonde in non perm I wonder?)
uu a few sachets of creams and make up I took away with me,very useful for carry on trips.now testing a facial oil and STILL waiting for beauty bible stuff!!!0 -
Mcculloch so sorry to hear about your sneak thief, scummy little slime bag hope they get what they deserve. glad you are ok so sorry also to hear about your friends sons, horrible tragedy and as you say it does put things in perspective but still doesnt alter the fact scumbag had no right to come in your house and help themselves to your stuff.
used up a sachet and a couple of bottles of mens shower gel by rinsing out the dregs to use as bubble bath, not off my list but gone from the bathroom all the same so rather satisfiing all the same.
TA a couple of bottles of curdled smelly suncream, Dh is off the opinion we have children younger than one of the bottles as he remembers using it on the beach when one was a baby. (our youngest is 14!:o)SPC~12 ot 124
In a world that has decided that it's going to lose its mind, be more kind my friend, try to Be More Kind0 -
oh Mcculloch I'ms sorry to hear about the theft, but yes you have a good attitude and so sorry to hear about your friends son.
I don't have any UU, lots of things almost finished but nothing gone yet. :cool:Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.
Take time but don't waste time0 -
Little UU here Boots Extracts mango body lotion, and the £1s going straight off the card:A Hope you all had a good start to the week, roll on the weekend:T
Debt free and busy treating myself:)
No more toiletries/make up until I've used what I've got stashed since Jan 2011, graduated October 2012. Restocked Dec 13..damn those sales0 -
Hope you had a good trip away rosemary apart from feeling ill.
1 UU finally and off the PP list!![STRIKE]1. The Sanctuary body lotion[/STRIKE]
2. Soap and Glory hand food mini
[STRIKE]3. The Body Shop seaweed mattifying day cream[/STRIKE] WMBA although don't really think it kept my skin matte for long
4. Elle foot cream
5. The Body Shop vanilla shower gel
The shower gel is very nearly UU. The foot and hand cream both have a long way to go though! Nearly UU the horrible Soap and Glory body scrub. Used it in the shower this evening and wasn't quite so bad as using it in the bath. Will def be UU next time I use it. Has been a slow toiletries month!0 -
Posting these UU before I forget, they're in the Biffa bin and I need a visual prompt!
UU #109: Superdrug Naturally Radiant HCC 150ml; WBA, although this tube seems to have disappeared much quicker than the first. Blaming DSD, just because I feel like it
UU #110: Dove Original Bar 100g; WBA, HG soapy thingy.
I'll be back later to catch up with Fred xx0 -
UU: Herbal Essences Straightening Shampoo - I appear to have got a flick in my hair from this instead of straightening. WBA0
