    Sorry to hear your news, Gemma :(.

    UU
    The Cooperative Aphrodite Body Spray 75ml - I liked using this although I prefer the scent of others better so probably would not buy again. Have moved on to the mini Impulse I had on holiday.

    Having a shower later so may be able to log some more.

    A UU for me

    Kiehls eye alert 15ml - wmba did an okay job and dark circles not as noticable.
    Have boxed up my other eye cream samples ages ago in preperation for moving as thought I would have moved by now so will have to use the Liz Earle eyebright instead. Good new though is I finally move end of next week :)

    Have read over last few posts and wanted to say sorry for your loss to Gemma. Losing someone is always hard but feels especially tougher this time of year. My thoughts are with you, take care xx
    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!

    One UU:

    Nivea Soft WNBA. Seen as my skin seems to hate both mineral oil and jojoba oil, I'm glad this has gone, as it had both of them in it. Now I'm going to check all of my unopened products for mineral oil and see if I could give them away to someone.

    I have a uu

    Well, I only found one product with mineral oil in it, a small Nivea Creme tin,and since it's unopened, I'll pop it in my Gran's Christmas presents since she likes Nivea :)

    Asset I know where you are coming from but many are grateful to receive tins or dry goods may be elderly and can cook. I always tink if you give wit a good heart it is ok. I agree there is a massive issue of inability to cook, I have encountered many people from all walks of life wo are unable to cook simple food. It is a disgrace that they have not received basic life lessons from family (I do not expect schools to have to teach tis basic lessons). It forces people to spend disportontate levels of income on inadequate nutrition. In the past I have tout some people ow to cook. The sad tin is in many cases I have seen 3 years know the take away number by heart.
    I gave a lot of cosmetics to the charity sop last month and it is brilliant to declutter. Many of the items were samples/ promotions/ gifts it is harder to use up an item if you never really wanted it and just got it from a rep. you know it will never be used by yourself so I like to give them to someone wo will appreciate it instead.

    Catriona best wises wit the decluttering and packing of the house. It will be a great start of 2017. It will be great to turn the key to your own door, paint the walls wat ever colour you like and relax. My move is delayed and it will eventually happen but tedious.
    My laptop as decided that it will not allow a few keys the function g h and alt and dash keys and it is wreaking my head
    I bout the boots botanic cleaning balm there was an indent that someone tested it. I used it anyway and it skinks of lip balm/beeswax. It is ok but not amazing. I feel I should have bout the Clinique or Est!e lauder one.

    Thank you. Always feel like I'm on my knees by Christmas! We have 14 completions this week.

    Hope the completions for our 2 ladies go well.
