  • Thanks Dolly for the new post. I am definitely in again for this month.

    Will sort out a PP soon, but not expecting to UU that much this month as much of what I am using is quite full, having UU quite a lot last month.

    My main goals for this month are:-

    - Only permissible INs are shampoo and conditioner (and I think I might be able to delay those till next month)

    - Must apply hand cream / nail oil obsessively. My hands are a mess - think it's due to hiking in the rain in Austria earlier in the month without gloves on and I've been picking at the hangnails and making it worse ever since.

    - Must keep on top of night time face routine - I've only been back at work two weeks and I've slipped a bit already.

    - Make an effort to wear make up to work more often - I buy enough of the stuff, would be good to UU rather than TA because it's gone off. At 43 (eek!) I really should be looking more polished at work.
  • I'm in, its Birthday month too:j Wonder if there will be any challenge related treats:T

    No more toiletries/make up until I've used what I've got stashed since Jan 2011, graduated October 2012. Restocked Dec 13..damn those sales

    Welcome amfowler.

    I repainted my nails last night with Essie China Doll - a very pretty pink. I did my toes the other day with Liz Earle Signature Blue, I don't like it so much on fingers but it looks fab on my toes, if anyone has it and isn't keen it is worth a try.

    I think I ended September with 24 uu's and no ins which I am super pleased about, if I can carry on like that till Christmas then I should notice a difference in the amount of space all this stuff is taking up.

    My Hypnose mascara started smudging-might try baby wipe trick or just TA soon.

    Thanks for the new thread dolly84!

    My PP list for October is mostly failures carried over from September :o

    - A Clinique double powder that is still refusing to die :P (these really are great value for money, virtually everlasting)
    - Burts bees foot cream
    - 2 Dove body lotions (both part empty)
    - Clinique primer
    - 1 shampoo, 1 conditioner (I've a few open, so any one of each :) )
    - Philip Kingsley Elasticizer mini
    - A face serum (I have one open, just can’t remember what it’s called…)

    Oooh, I'd forgotten about advent calendars Plumpudding, and of course the New Year sales - this will be the first time for years I'll be here to take advantage of the Boots sales etc, so I'll need to use up lots of stuff in advance before I can allow myself to partake. Challenge accepted! :rotfl: :A
