yep !!
say the first 3 or 4 times my skin reacted with it and my neck went all red too but i carried on and is now great,i think it may have been my skin getting used to it ,been using it for months and months now and i love my skin when it feels like a baby's bum :rotfl: :rotfl:
been using the no7 blemish care too but im sure its giving me spots when i stop using it for a week and then start again

Thanks for the reply,

:rotfl: I know what you mean, mine was really soft after the lumps went, just was't sure if it would keep happening every time I used it, hopefully not! Will persevere until the testers ran out I think.

I've been using the No7 Intelligent Balance and Beautifully Balanced collection (cleanser, toner, day fluid and night fluid) my skins really quite clear the the moment. (Bought these all when the old £5 off No7 vouchers were being given out, I used them for a while but think my skin got too used to them and it started going lumpy under the skin, so I probably need to swap them over every now and then!)

Have also been using the TD Wrinkle Reducing Night Serum (just like P&P so been using in the day too) and the TD Eye Brightener too. Love these products so may have to get some more before the vouchers run out!!

Thanks for all the recommendations on products everyone!!

Went into Boots today with 2 skin care vouchers but the assistant said I couldn't use a voucher for olay total effects handcream because it's not facial even though on page 1 of this thread it's supposed to be okay. :mad: Ah well, ended up getting time delay cleanser and toner to put in a pamper basket for someone. Boots at Bury had hardly anything of the cheaper time delay products. Also got in a pickle with atm vouchers. Let me print 3 off for fcuk new products, so I got 3 small items (didn't realise they were mini and it didn't exclude mini on the coupon anyway) vouchers wouldn't go through. Meantime a queue is building...:o sometimes I don't know whether the embarrassment when I've cocked it up is worth it...:D

yeah im fine now thanks - it was a suspected brain hemorrhage so i had to have a brain ct scan and then a lumber puncture (well 3 actually as they couldnt get any fluid out) but my scan was clear so thats good. i am meant to be resting but i am finding it so hard. my baby is cheering me up though and i feel fine in myself but my darlin hubby just wont let me out of the house today.

can anyone recommend the time delay exfoliator? i still have 2 vouchers left (and another one prob on its way as my mother in law is buying some baby stuff for me today - forgot to give her my card though :mad: ). i like really gritty rough exfoliators. is this one rough does anyone know?

Hi Yummuymummuy

Glad to hear you are on the mend. I have tried the TD exfoliator and personally I don't rate it.
It's very smooth and even after washing it off, my face felt clammy.
I love the TD wipes they are great for freshening up in the evening. I have one in my drawer at work and they are a god send if I'm going out after work.

I went to hammersmith today and both branches have lots and lots of wipes, eye brighteners, hand creams, exfoliators and toners.
I spent £11 in two seperate transactions (I alreadey had 4 x £5 skin vouchers) and got:
2 x eye brighteners
3 x TD wipes
2 x cocoa butter (£2.19 instead of £3.19 ea)
Vitamin E wipes
Vitamin E cleansing lotion (free with ACM voucher)
3 x Bodyform (on speical offer @ 99p ea)
2 bottles of pop
Packet of gum
2 x Boots baby oil gel (reduced from £3.50 to 75p ea) :j

And I still have another skin care voucher to spend.
I'm chuffed with my haul.

I've only been using P&P for a week but it has made such a difference. My skin is so smooth and flawless.
I highly recommend it.

PS Clinique has a speical offer on and they are giving a weeks supply of cleanser, toner and moisturiser when you have a FREE consulation :j

lumpy_bum

i went to boots in coventry( by the ricoh arena) and got the sa to scan the johnsons 4 packs of wipes, they came up at 2.39 so got all that were there...only 3 but grabbed the other 4 packs in the hope they would come at that price too but didnt lol
also had a voucher for a free single use camera..which are on buy one get one free got both for nowt
also claimed my free £5 no7 gift and got a half price eye shadow lol
good day in boots for me
sadly the tesco 2 doors down had no good bags else it would have topped off the day

Hi, I just wondered if the first time you used the No7 Microdermabrasion if your face reacted to it at all? I used a GWP tester and two days after I had used it my cheeks had all these little bumps underneath and went dry?! I wasn't out on the day in between, so it wouldn't have been the sun or anything, so I could only really put it down to some sort of reaction to the stuff itself.

ooooo i think you have just answered a huge quetsion that had stumped me. i used the microderabrasion on my face for 2nd time a few weeks ago and striaght after my cheeks were red then i woke uo the next day with bumps under my skin on my face and a red spot rash up my arms and neck. i thought it was a new prefume at first till i noticed that my face felt all bumpy. it must have been the n07 stuff i guess it must have splashed up my arms maybe? :mad: i have just used it again though now will see what happens in the morning

Does anyone have any ideas of when the current 342 offers will end, my mum has to use this mouthwash that can only seem to be bought from Boots and I've noticed that dental is currently on 342.

That sounds like quite a bad reaction! Mine was just my face, I looked like Bradley off Eastenders with my red cheeks! :rotfl:

What was weird for me was that straight after I'd used it, and the day after that I was fine, then two days after I just woke up, looked in the mirror and was :eek: .

It's all very strange!!
