I took the Glossing Locks Hair Spritz when we went on holiday a few weeks ago and as I do lie in the sun I used it at the pool side and I agree that it did make my hair greasy but when I washed it of an evening my hair was very soft and shiney. However, as my hair is platinum blonde(dyed) it did not stop the colour from going a bit brassy, so a big thank you to those of you who recommended Schwarzkopf Touch of Silver shampoo. It has restored the colour beautifully.

Another option of blonde/grey hair, and will give you a quick fix is Wella Colour set. (Silver ash) I use it sprinkled directly onto my hair after shampoo and it tones beautifully. I would only recommend the silver ash

It can also be applied directly to dry hair as a colour refresher in an emergency. It makes hair lovely and shiny too. (It has a dropper stopper) Just sprinkle it onto dry hair and rub in, it's that simple. Costs about £2.40 in the Other chemist.

Wish Boots would stock it, I have used this for about 20 years and 1 bottle lasts for ages. I used to use it as a refresher in between Schwarzkopf Touch of Silver shampoo, but now I use it instead.... Details here..... HTH

Hello folks

I saw someone posting here about having enough sarongs from Red magazine and not needing anymore from Boots and I thought, why buy magazines from Boots when you can get them for Mr T with couopns for free? So putting 2 and 2 together, I figured the magazine coupons must be getting accepted in Boots and are upping total spend for £2 til spits. I've since been using the coupons for Psychologies, Red and Elle magazine from the Daily mail the other week, and Eve coupons I got from another newspaper, may have been Daily Mail on a different day, sorry I'm so fuzzy about the details. Anyway, I've been getting 2 different mags at a time, the UG dazzling shine and chewing gum to take total before coupons to £5 and paying about £2.40 to £2.50 a time and getting a til spit. I thought I would sell the magazines on at a car boot sale for one or two quid as they're recent and apart from the Psychologies ones have a free gift, so i'll get some dosh back and have lots of chewing gum and UG which I'll use. I know I may be quoting someone elses post and I am very, very sorry if I am but I couldn't see anything on first post about using the coupons. Hope this helps folks

Hi

I have tried using the 500 points wyb 2 P&P on the p&p suncare but the till beeped.The SA then read the back of the coupon and it said it excludes the suncare range.So it has to be used with the facial range of p&p, which unfortunately is more expensive

Just looked at the back ...............drat you are right is not on suncare! Oh well will have to get 2 serum instead and pay a bit more !
so will be 2x 16.75
i lipilicious @ 9.25
342
400 points on lipilicious
500 points p&p
200 points colour cosmetics
so 33.50 and 1100 points

Sadly not. The GWP on a £20 spend works because it goes through before the till totals and takes off the free item/s. The PC voucher won't, because it's put through after the till has totalled and taken off the free item/s.


It's official - I visited the worst Boots ever today. No reduced items - even the TD stuff was full price :eek: And it didn't stock UG :eek: And no ACM :eek:

No Ponds regen stuff :eek: No JF handbag stuff :eek: No Jemma Kidd :eek: No Olay, MF, Dream Lash or No17 GWP's :eek: No Bodyform Tins :eek: No NC sponge bags:eek: No reduced Oral B Electric Toothbrushes :eek:

In fact, nothing on my list!!!

I came out without buying anything at all. I feel a little..... empty :rotfl: :rotfl:

But had a good shop last Saturday (obviously not in that store :rotfl: :rotfl: )

No7 Dark Spot sun cream Spf50 £10.50
No7 Dream Lash Mascara £10.50
No7 Liplicious Caramel £0
Dream Lash GWP
Oral B Precision Clean x2 £24.74
No17 High Gloss Nail Varnish x2 £4
No17 GWP
Ug Shine Prep Spray £0.39
Boots Bodyspray £1.59
Panadol x2 £6.98

Spent = £58.70
Total Points = 2978

Used - 1500 oral b, 400 liplicious, 500 No7 suncare, 50 boots bodyspray, 300 total spend, £1 healthcare, No17 2-4-£4 nail varnish, Ug half price ACM, £2 haircare till-spit - think that's all!!

Till beeped at No7 PC £5 - not sure why now, cos even after 3for2 it was over £20.

Receipt says total savings £40.59

Probably should've split it to get more till spits, but I was in a hurry and didn't think!
Quite pleased :j

Hi
Sorry i didnt mean the gwp, i meant the pc voucher worked on the bogof sun and 3 for 2 mens. I used a pc voucher on 2 no 7 facial sun protections @ £10.50 each bogof and a lot of other people did too x
Maybe theres something wrong with your voucher as it keeps beeping?

Ill report back anyway and tell you all if it worked or not £11 with 700 points would still be pretty good:D (could get 1100 points if i swapped the eyeliner for liplicious but i really want the eyeliner:p )

Can 'YE' who is MrT savvy please add me to the pm list re tips/hints etc etc.

Trevor Sorbie shampoo and conditioner for £2.49 with the till spit and PC voucher Woulda had something from the long hair range to get the 100 points too but they don't appear to have anything for coloured hair! x
