    I know it might be a stupid question but what do you put around your head when you go to bed? I'm thinking a towel but know it wouldn't stay on all night.

    if you are prone to wriggling in your sleep, why not just lay a towel flat over the bed/pillow and then wash the towel the next day.

    Do you use the Clarins every day? I seem to remember Caroline Hirons changing her recommendation from daily to every other day a while after she first reviewed it. I see on the Clarins site that others have complained about break outs, and one got a refund after 2 months even without a receipt. Link to page

    Love the thought of the Guerlain, worth not buying clothes to use this:D

    Maddie I didn'-t know that at all. I used it haphardly but there were a few days in a row i guess. I thought is was only me. Thank you so much for putting my mind at ease. i will open the normal clarins toner i have in reserve and step down the brightening toner.

    I really want to get a new corporate suit, so it was a pure choice. I want to get a new suit but i think i might get some of the items i own tailored instead.

    morning all - hope everyone is keeping well.

    OUT: another item sold on ebay that I was never going to use!
    UU: Swarovski perfume - WISH I could buy again, love this so much but they have discontinued it :(

    but that leads to my IN: Replacement perfume, bought on offer and I have none in my stash

    VALM - thanks for the recommendation on Elemis balancing cleanser - I am loving it!

    Massa1982 - I think your chap is asking for big trouble buying a knife for Valentines:rotfl:.

    No uu's to report but will hopefully finish a couple more by the end of the month.

    Yeah, it's one of the Valentine's scents. It's mostly vanilla scented, but it does have orange oil it it as well, smells a bit like chocolate orange :)

    29 Original Batiste HG. Always buy this. Have another to replace this.
    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!

    My gran would say that a knife as a present will cut the friendship . . .

    UU: Crabtree & Evelyn Lavender handcream. Love C&E handcream, not my favourite scent, this was in a multi set.

    One TA:

    Atrixo Hand Cream WNBA. Get mineral oil away from me. My body does not like this and I'm so sensitive to mineral oil.

    I have 7 unopened products that have mineral oil in them. I was thinking of selling them all together on eBay, but I received them as a gift and I don't want to make my mum upset that I haven't even used them. I accidentally used a hand cream which had 'paraffinum liquidum' in it (Mineral Oil in a different name) and my eyes are sore and itchy and I've got a rash. I have two open products with mineral oil in them. Anyone got any ideas on what I can do with them? Would a charity shop accept unopened products?

    Couple more UUs today, a Herbal Essences shampoo and a Mitchum deodorant - both HG products.

    I have an IN of 2 x Mitchum Deodorants - they were on offer so thought I'd pick up a couple!
