this really stung my face too. :mad: I still have it but haven't used it since, think I'll try it on my legs later and if it stings there too then it'll be getting chucked!
I also got the sachets of garnier ultralift this morning.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.

Glad it wasn't just me! Would definitely recommend using up on legs if you can!
Also, happy belated birthday asajj!0 -
Hola Beauty Queens :wave: and a belated HB to Mrs-MP and asajj!
I have had a busy fortnightand we are off on hols very early on Saturday morning so I am in full-on packing mode. My makeup/toiletries list is waaaaaaaay longer than my clothing list, make of that what you will
I have a couple of UU:
Estee Lauder Doublewear Concealer 01 Light; WNBA, creased on me, just like virtually every other concealer, everPlus, £21.50 is just blimmin' ridiculous. The good news is I can now allow myself to make a start on my ProLongwear
because £17 to cover yer eye bags is sooo much more acceptable :rotfl:
Clinique All About Eyes Rich; WDBA, loved this, so nourishing and a little goes a long way. I used this at night and have the 'regular' version on the go for day time which is also spluttering.
I have barely been outside since the weather cheered up but despite this, I seem to have caught a little bit of colour on my chest/boobiesI didn't even realise until I saw photos from a friend's birthday party and I look like a ghost from the chin up! :eek: so I might need to buy myself a darker foundation for the next couple of months.
I have asked (nicely) for the 14 day Ultralift samples and I have seen a big Rituals box (I know what this is) and a smaller Rituals bag (I *think* I know what this is) in my birthday haul so I suspect my totals will be bu@@ered by Saturday :rotfl:
Should be decanting moisturiser into smaller tubs and figuring out what else I need to ask Mr Tesco to bring me so I'm slinking off again. Laters, taters! xx0 -
Fizz - have a lovely holiday.
I have a couple of uu
Crabtree & Evelyn La Source Shampoo 500ml - DD and DS used this up as it wasn't moisturising enough for my hair. WNBA
Philip Kingsley Itchy Flaky Scalp Shampoo 20ml - I don't have either of these problems but DD does get a flaky scalp so she used this. WNBA I have already bought her a massive Head & Shoulders shampoo. Oh it did the job though.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler
Fashion on the Ration 28/660 -
I have another UU to report. I think after this point things will start to slow down for me for the next few weeks.
14. Moroccan oil Shampoo - WNBA. I loved the smell of this, scented much the same as the other Moroccan oil products which I love. The price of this shampoo is what really puts me off as I do not see that it does anything special to my hair to warrant the price tag.July 2015 - £997 in Debt.

Belated birthday wishes asajj, and happy upcoming birthday and holiday Fizz!
I seem to be on a bit of a roll this week. UU:
17/111. S&G Calm One Calm All 75ml - WMBA, this was fine, smelled and lathered well.
18/112. Elemis PC Oxygenating Night Cream 30ml - probably WNBA, this came in a set and I think it's just a bit too heavy for me at this stage.
Have decided to keep the pot and decant the Garnier sachets I won't take away with me next week into it. This will encourage me to use them rather than "save" them.
And an IN:
6/76. Clean & Clear Advantage Sport Control Daily Wash 150ml - needed and on a TMF offer so no guilt over this. This will replace my Kiehl's one (currently cut open) for my gym bag.
Happy weekend - I shall be packing for my mini break and planning which sachets/minis to take with me! xMFW 2017 #123 2018: £1,852.64/£39,200 (4.7%)0 -
UU 2 more sachets tonight.
15. Missha korean essence. WNBA as it is not available over here and it's not worth the effort of trying to get my hands on.
16. Sjal moisturiser sample. WNBA I'm not even sure where this sample came from to be honest. I have a 2nd one stashed though.
Have a lovely weekend everyone xxxJuly 2015 - £997 in Debt.
