Good luck everyone!

Sjal Cleanser. WNBA. Was nice as a competition win but I couldn't afford to buy it normally.
Elemis PCMC. WBA. Hopefully pick up another on a QVC TSV at some point.
Fresh Soy Cleanser. WBA. Nice product
Elemis Orchid Shower Gel. WNBA. Wasn't overwhelmed.
Embryollaise Lait Creme. WNBA. Not so fussed about this.

*Whispers* Apparently there is one due on 4 September 2016. Check out the forums on shoppingtelly.com as they usually find out what's contained in them and the price early.
Disclaimer : Not enabling of course !!Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!

Oops. A facemask in.
Double Oops. It has lavender in.
Lavender triggers my asthma. And I can't give it to my mum as it has the same effect on my dad.0 -

Cut open a Boots Natural Collection body lotion, bought it a couple of years ago when reduced to 50p and on 3 for 2
Nice lotion so would buy again at that priceLife 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.
