Can anyone recommend a really good de-stressing bubble bath or soak or oil? Something for aches and pains?

Have you tried just plain old epsom salts? Really good for aches and pains and then you can just put in a bit of your usual bubble bath/soak/oil for their effects

Finally had that bath I've been promising myself and the damn thing seems to have leaked through a leaky seal into the kitchen below:eek: I've got the sealant out ready for more diy. On the plus side, a couple of UU:
LUSH Christmas Hedgehog
S&G Hand Food Mini Hand Cream

I have a uu

Murad Essential C Cleanser 45ml - this came in a beauty box some time ago, I believe it is a pricey brand but this was just an orange scented face wash to me. WNBA.

That's a good idea! Does anyone know how to purchase these cheaply? I've bought packs from boots and tkmax before but I'm wondering if there is a cheaper way....

I'd still love a heavily scented bottle of something with a kick to it! Sinus clearing type of thing.

More UUS

45) twilight soap by an American company Nickory bath something or other WNBA very pretty soap and lovely or use despite being really soft. It's too expensive to order from America so will stick with UK companies.

46) Lush Lord of Misrule bath bomb WBA but will not stock pile these as I did last year.

47) leaders insolution wrinkle filler skin clinic sheet mask WBA a favourite, very thin but stays out for about 30 minutes and my skin is smoother.

48) Lush snow angel bath bomb/ melt WBA love the scent and even though your bath turns yellow I still enjoy it.

49) Lush avoshower shower gel 250ml WNBA I wish the scent was true to the bath bomb, I find this has a different top note which I find unpleasant.

50) Dearberry pumpkin face mask WNBA I liked it but got bored towards the end of the pot. I have got to have got about 40 uses out of it as you only need thin layer across your face.

51) Mitchum deodorant WBA works well.

52) NMF aquaring ampoule mask WBA fits well, hydrating and lasts a good 30 mins saturated on my face.

Just look for a huge bag on Amazon

You can get a 5 kilo bag for a few quid

I have some uu's

Elemis Skin Nourishing Body Lotion 50ml

Grounded Chocolate Orange Coffee Scrub 15g - this was a sample pack that came in a LIB box, it smelt amazing and was effective but I needed to have the exact amount of wetness to my skin or it didn't work, very messy too but washed away easily.

This is my final post for the Finish 7 by Autumn challenge

[STRIKE]Bourjois Healthy Mix Concealer[/STRIKE] - b/f from 7 by summer
[STRIKE]Max Factor Cream Blush in Soft Pink[/STRIKE] - b/f from 7 by summer
Lancome Juicy Tube - mini GWP size
Korres Rose Tinted Lip Balm - the stick type one
[STRIKE]Smashbox Photo Finish Eye Primer [/STRIKE]- sample size
Bobbi Brown Pale Pink Powder Blush - mini in a GWP palette
Urban Decay Double Ended Eye Liner - Zero/Corrupt - just want to finish Corrupt.


The blush has a teeny bit left but I am calling it done for the purposes of this challenge and will finish the last bit off in the next few days although I am sick to death of it.


I never touched the Juicy Tube or the Bobbi Brown blush, the Korres lipbalm just goes on and on as does the eyeliner.


I will start a finish 5 by Christmas and carry some of these over to that.

I have another small UU

Elemis Frangipani Monoi body oil 35ml WDBA - or rather put it on my Christmas list. Can't remember how I came to have this and whether or not it was a GWP but it's sooooo lush. I just adore the smell. And leaves my skin feeling lovely and smelling great.

Last Christmas I asked for the match in scrub which I'm not that far off finishing. I do like it for the smell but it's. A bit too scratchy for me. It's my only body scrub (actually scrap that I think I have a lush one my sister gifted me) and I'd like to find one I love. Back in the day I used to like the lush solid ones such as Buffy.
