Evening all! Garnier samples in here too and a UU Timotei Vivid Colour ShampooDebt 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 -
Small UU of a bottle of Bio-Oil, I think this one was the Aldi looky likey. I prefer oil on my skin to lotions and butters during summer.
WIBA? Absolutely, great stuff.
I have a bottle of Aldi Lacura facial oil that is from last year, so I may press this in to action as a body oil before it goes off. A little goes a really, really long way.
I do like the Lacura Facial Oil, it would definitely be a real shame to sling it but as I use products with SPFs most days and it doesn't make a good base, it's slow to be UU'd.Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again... I would have burned the pink candle, sculptured like a rose, that melted in storage." Don't keep things 'for best' - that day never comes. Use them and enjoy them now.0 -

Happy birthday mrs-moneypenny!
I received the Garnier samples too but have not listed on my spreadsheet as I decided to stop recording sachets from now on - I tend to use them quickly now and these will mainly be used on my upcoming travels - lots planned for August!
I have a few UUs:
14/108. Sanctuary Body Lotion 75ml - from my gym bag. This has grown on me but I prefer butters - this is quite hard to rub in. Nice scent though. This came as a GWP and I WNB but have another of the same size and a full size still stashed.
15/109. Nivea Firming Body Lotion 250ml - another from the recent glitch, this is fine but I probably WNB at normal price. I think the firming claim (as with all such) is a load of tosh - I don't think it did anything that a normal lotion doesn't.
16/110. Cussons Mum & Me Head to Toe Wash 500ml - another from a glitch. 2 down, 2 to go. Used to shave my legs, this is fine but lathers pretty poorly.MFW 2017 #123 2018: £1,852.64/£39,200 (4.7%)0 -
2 unexpected UU's last night:
• Safflower Oil – WBA, I use oil to cleanse but I do like trying different ones.
• REN Rosa Centifolia Make up Remover – WNB, got it free but I don't really need it.No more goo hoarding!

Morning everyone!
A very happy birthday to you, mrs-moneypenny!
Now for some UUs:
EOS Sweet Mint Lip Balm: As I have mentioned many times, EOS are my HG and I love them all! I have a few left in the stash which will be replenished when I go to the US in October (along with most of Bath & Bodyworks I fear!).
Burt's Bees Milk and Honey Body lotion 70g: The scent has grown on my but the lotion just wouldn't sink in - very disappointing product. WNBA.
Garnier Moisture Radiance Gel 1.5ml: This was a sample and didn't really do much but it did sink into the skin quickly and smelt lovely. WNB.0 -
Happy birthday mrs-moneypenny! Mine was last Tuesday and got a present from in-laws with 3 Body Shop Shower gels so 3 ins.ally.0
