Who's your favourite department store? Mine's Debenhams!
I only use roll-ons in glass bottles as I find the plastic ones give out way to much product, try Nivea or Fenjal, they're both good!
Hudson's Bay. Plenty of locations. Two on the way home to make things worse. Holt Renfrew often has better GwP offers but there is only one in town and it's not convenient.
I prefer the stick type deos.
UU: Elizabeth Grant Body Lotion 25mls. Nothing special. WNBA as you can only get it on the TV shopping channel. Shipping is too high and there are better products out there.
Lancôme Regenerist Eye Cream. GwP size pot. 5mls? used it as an all over night cream. Amazing how long a small pot can go on.
Couple of nearly dones sitting on the counter and will used up by the weekend.0 -

I'm starting off with a few easy things to UU
No 7 beautifully matte foundation - want to use this up as it's too heavy for spring/summer but I don't want the little bit that's left to be hanging around till winter
Body Shop pencil concealer - down to the last bit on this as well and I have a few other concealers that I can use when it's gone
Lee Stafford - anti fizz spray - it sort of works but makes my hair look flat so I'll use it up but probably wont buy again
Body Shop Satsuma shower gel - I have a massive bottle that I've been using on and off for about 12months as I keep swapping to other shower gels as I get a bit bored of it, but I'm going to persevere till I get to the end of the bottle
Body shop facial shimmer stuff - forgotten what it's actually called but had this ages, it just keeps going. I'm like a magpie with anything that shimmers so I want to get this used so I can start on the other 2 or 3 tubes I have of stuff like this
Dove Summer Glow - I keep buying gradual tanners but I tend to use proper fake tan in summer so I'll use this up and put a ban on buying more (I like this because it does make my skin soft and gets rid of the blinding whiteness of my winter legs but the minus is I smell like a biscuit!)
Body Shop primer - I like this and it seems to work quite well as I primer but it has a funny lumpy texture and I have a few other primers that I want to start using
I think that 7 to use buy summer but hopefully I'll get a couple finished in the next few weeksBarclaycard: £2970 Tesco: £655 MBNA £4830 Virgin: £6110

I'm the same with sparkly glittery things but I've finally come to the conclusion I don't really like them on my face.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

Lush Dirty shave cream
Lush Mask of Magnaminty.
Finished the Bare Minerals serum. It's not working the way it used to which is strange as it's a relatively new discovery to me. Have another sample size so will see if anything changes.
Should think the hand cream will be finished next as the tube has now been cut open.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!

I live very much in the sticks, so only experience the joys and temptations of the department store when I am on holiday. Everything I might need or more likely want is available on line, but I do slightly miss seeing, smelling and touching products, saves me a fortune on not being tempted by GWPs though:D
My PP list is not diminishing very much but have the following:-
IN
2 x 12ml Herbfarmacy Nail & Cuticle Oil (Local growers of organic herbs and producers of lovely organic natural products) 1 & 2 of 16
UU
41ml Mitchum AP/Deo stick 1/38
75ml Sensodyne toothpaste 2/39
300ml Soap & Glory Orangeasm Super Rich Body Butter 3/40
15ml NIOD CAIS 4/41
7 By Summer still static:(
15ml OPI Nail Envy
Boots No 7 lipstick ? Rose (label worn)
30ml Clinique Moisture Surge tinted moisturiser Shade 02
3.2g Bobbi Brown Bone eyeshadow
9.4ml Maybelline Lash Sensationa; WP mascara black
21g Smashbox Halo Mineral Powder Light
OPI mini nail polish Princesses Rule
I keep debating with myself whether or not to ditch the last of the Smashbox Halo, I dug out one of my precious Youngblood Mineral Powders to take on mini holiday and it is amazing, gives me such a flawless finish without any liquid foundation underneath, :money: keeps winning out, but the Halo seems to go on forever.The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time.
