I'm looking for a cuticle cream/oil as I have very dry skin especially around my fingernails. Does anyone has any recommendations as I thought you guys here would be best to ask. I would justify it as an essential IN lol

Many thanks x

My cuticles already feel nourished by the No 7 one that I used last night! I am impressed. Oils don't work for me, they dry the cuticle out completely. I've also tried Burts Bees and Lush but find them too greasy.

I'm also loving the ESSIE scrub I got in a subscription box.

L'occitane shea butter hand cream or they do a specific product for cuticles too.

I completely agree with VALM, the No7 one is really nice and I also find oils make everything 10 times more dry.

I have a uu

Pecksniffs Calm Shower Gel 250ml - this came in an All Boxed Up winter box ages ago, it had a lovely geranium, cedar and orange scent and lathered well, I used the last bit in the bath last night. WNBA but only because I will not be buying things in plastic bottles in future.

Hope the link works.

VALM and dolly84 - thanks for this, my nails and cuticles are in an awful condition, more a health issue than neglect, but I have so many nail polishes that I haven't worn because of this, I am going to make it my mission to get them sorted. Not stocked at my teeny Boots, but will get it ordered in, I have a No7 voucher to use and a lot of advantage points too.

One UU this morning:

Nivea Stress Protect Deodorant 50ml WDBA. This one is m favourite out of all the Nivea deodorants. I really does last all day.

Hello ladies!

I'm having a declutter.

Background: I was helping a loved one declutter and she had several expensive face creams which she had not used up and that were old. I said I would take them and use them on my feet. I have not used them that much, so I have decided to throw them out.

But they are high-end products and as we all know, high-end labels do not come cheap, so my curiosity encouraged me to see how much they cost. (That and I couldn't afford them for myself, so, y'know.)

Hole. Y. Mackerel.

My relative has not used up and thrown away £109 on TWO expensive face moisturisers.

_pale_ I actually feel sick at the idea of throwing them away. _pale_

I'm not posting this to shame her (hence the anonymity), but just in case anyone was under under any illusions as to how much money the products we have all stockpiled cost, this is an eyeopener.

Even if you have cheaper products. It REALLY adds up.

UU

Tesco Natural Extracts Shea Butter Body Butter 50ml - Loved this. WDBA. Have plenty in stash to go.

I seem to have a lot of LHJs I'm working through at the mo. But I'm hoping to either use up one of my bath bombs before March or finish my current facial serum.

UU
75ml Corsodyl toothpaste 10/21
50ml Darphin Intral Redness Relief Serum 11/22

7 items left on my PP list, 4 should be finished fairly early in March and the other 3 by the end of March, if I had been a little more disciplined about using products most of them could have been finished:(
