No shipping confirmation (just order confirmation), but given the cost of my order/when placed I was expecting it today anyway as they offer free express delivery. The other order was placed earlier and I'm expecting it sometime this week as they say 3-5 working days as standard. HTH and pleased to see I'm not alone on the naughty step!

Thanks for that I have both order confirmations and got free delivery but didn't spend enough for next-day so I guess they'll be here towards the end of the week or maybe next week. I have a feeling they'll have had a fair few orders in the recent days so am prepare to cut them some slack but I would rather they didn't arrive on Saturday as DH will be here and I can see him rolling his eyes already. As for the naughty step, you bring cushions, I'll supply the wine. Red or white?!

Hi Steff :hello:

Thanks ruby_eskimo, I've just ordered a tween duo from Regis, don't know if it's SLS free or not but at a tenner for 750ml of shampoo and condish it's worth a punt. I have tried the Eversomething range (pink one), the Naked range and the Rainforest range from TBS and wasn't all that impressed with any to be honest.

I think my hair is almost as awkward as my face :rotfl:

Oh this thread sounds like fun!


I think i'll start the challenge and do a stocktake tonight.


I know I have lots of make up and toiletries that I've got stored but never seem to get around to using.


I shall report back post stocktake!

Fiasco, can I ask what shampoo you're using as SLS free? My hair sounds similar to yours.

I have a UU from this morning:

Soap and Glory The Breakfast Scrub

I liked this but not sure if I would buy again. I like the scent one day then hate it the next. It is effective on dry/rough skin but makes a hella mess in the bath!!

Just catching up on the thread just now. My HG shampoo is Louise Galvin volumising for fine hair. John Lewis and Whole Foods stock it for £9ish. Love it and have spent a lot of cash in trial and error to find something as great as this.

Welcome Steff - good luck with the challenge

Another UU tonight. Elemis PCMC now onto Pucka night cream instead. Love PCMC and I'm down to my last little pot.

Welcome steffie

Welcome steff.

I have some uu

Elemis Skin Nourishing Milk Bath 400ml, this was the last of many bottles all received as GWP's, I would happily use again as it is gorgeous but there is not way I will pay £40 for a bottle as I only get 5 baths out of them.

M&S Lemon Verbena Body Cream - gorgeous stuff, smells like lemon meringue pie and sinks in really quickly.

sold two tubes of fake tan on fleabay THEN the buyer emailed to say can I cancel as she bid by mistake!!!!How can she say that you have to fill in the price and click twice more before it is accepted!!!!Had a look on fleabay and no way am I going to cancel as they can then mark my service down so she is going to get an unpaid claim(think I would also be liable for fees if I don,t do that anyone know?Just put some Bobbi Brown BB cream on,bought medium but am quite tanned at the moment and it is far too pale,hope to sell it as 39 items on and no sales for a while

Red please - and lots of it! I'll bring cake as well as cushions - think we might be there for a while

This is exactly why I get stuff delivered to work now - think my DH would have had a fit if he'd seen it all arrive together, I certainly did! As it was, I took a third of it home last night (and hid most before he saw it... :whistle:) and his only comment was - "what's that huge bottle in the bathroom - was it a glitch?"! The prospect of him being able to share seemed to take his mind off it though!

REALLY need to get moving on new bathroom with lots of storage as frankly have no clue where the rest is going to live... putting myself on a toiletries spending ban from now until Christmas sales, the only thing I should want/need is PCMC and I'm going to ask for this as a gift anyway.

Oh, and FizzWhizz, last night I had shipping confirmation emails from Regis - for both the box delivered yesterday and my other (smaller) order which I placed first thing Monday.

Right, time to declare my INs so far...

4-5/165-6. Tigi Bed Head Peppermint Hair Mask 200ml x 2

6-7/167-8. Tigi Bed Head Control Freak Conditioner 750ml x 2

8/169. Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Daily Shampoo 300ml

9/170. Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Daily Treatment 300ml

10/171. Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum 25ml

I realised this morning that I don't have any hair serum/shine spray/finishing polish left, so the serum was actually needed!

Still no emails for me, I'm sure it's coming. I'd just like to plan for 'when' Loving that your DH used the term 'glitch'! We have lots of bathroom storage, three big cupboards, which doesn't really help with my problem, if they aren't somewhat full I feel understocked

I think I ought to join you in a spending ban; aside from toothpaste, shower gel for DH and the skids and handwash I do not need ANYTHING. We have a fortnight in Devon with all the skids coming up (expensive business keeping 5 children fed, watered and entertained, I can tell you), then DH's big birthday in September, a week in Dubai in October and then Christmas will be just around the corner :eek: I don't miss my old job, the stress was horrible and I hated working weekends etc, but I don't half miss my old wage. Moanmoanmoan

I have opened a couple of EL sachets this morning and will probably finish them after work, and my shampoo and condish are now both standing on their heads. I WILL get my total below 150 before Monday!

Btw, cream doughnut for me please, if you're going to do cake you might as well do it properly
