GAGave DD a Rimmel Eyeliner in Sable. I have sooooo many brown eyeliners to get through and they take me forever, she was going to buy one from Avon so I let her pick from my stash.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

I have some INS. We went to M&S for MRM to get some new slippers and I bought the Summer Beauty Bag. I don’t know what has come over me this month!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!

VALM - I've been to M&S this morning too. I was there for about 2 hours trying to get DS a prom suit, I didn't buy the beauty bag but I did get a big bottle of Floryntena EDP, haven't had this for a few years but still love it.

Oh that’s one of my fave fragrances! A few years ago the lady behind the counter said they were discontinuing it so I bought up the little roll-on-y perfumes cos that’s all they had.I’m glad it’s back ! 😊"One has to free oneself from the illusion that international climate change policy is environmental policy.

That is a blast from the past. The fragrance that was included in the Beauty Bag is lovely - Discover Coconut. I wore the pink lip crayon tonight too. Lovely bright pink colour. Have been out with another couple to watch an 80’s Tribute band. Was really good fun.dolly84 said:VALM - I've been to M&S this morning too.

They do quite a few body products in it too. It is so lovely and long lasting for the money.

uuSavon de Marseille Bar Soap - this one was called 'Fanny' and had it imprinted on the front, I very childishly bought it because of that and laughed a lot. I like this brand of soap and have quite a few more in the stash.I have taken advantage of the MSE Gruum offer of a solid shampoo bar, body wash bar and facial cleansing bar for just a postage cost of £2.95.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

Popped into Marks’ today and got a bottle 👏🏻 And some lemon body butter cos it’s smelled lovely. And a couple of other bits. Resisted the other Floryntena items tho…. By the time I got to the tills I’d racked up enough for a Beauty Bag jobber so I took that too! 😁 I agree that the wee coconut perfume is lovely. Not tried any of the other bits yet, but the upper arm creme makes gorgeous hand cream ha haa!"One has to free oneself from the illusion that international climate change policy is environmental policy.

Have been trying to avoid the M&S bag but may have to make a visit...
UU a couple of things this weekend:
Lush Rose Jam Bubbleroon: WBA and managed to get 3 uses out of it. Love the scent and the amount of bubbles.
Missha Lemon Brightening Sheet Mask: bought so many of these when I was in South Korea in 2019 and working my way through the packs. Love the scent and amount of essence that you get in them. Not sure they brighten my skin but definitely moisturise well. WBA.
