I've got quite a few females to buy for at Christmas, so I'm getting ahead of the game this year.
So, yesterday I ordered 3 of these

3 of these
http://www.boots.com/en/Ciate-London...Tree-_1753620/

and 3 of these
http://www.boots.com/en/Nails-Inc-Fe...acker_1754610/

I'm picking them up this afternoon. I'm a bit ashamed that I'm thinking about Christmas when we're not even in Summer yet, but at those prices I couldn't refuse.

Bought this at the same time for me.
http://www.boots.com/en/Bulldog-Oil-...100ml_1829482/

I hope it works as I can get 4 bottles of this cheaper than one bottle of the Clinique one I'm currently using. So fingers crossed.

NUBO is being sold at Harrods for 100 +
TK maxx have it for 24.99. I bought the night recharge be really weary
its awful. Had I paid the 100 pounds I would be gutted. Its sticky just sits on top of the skin
basically useless to use at night because it drags the skin when you hit the pillow.

Hello

I just bought kérastatse products for my hair: the chroma riche balsam which is fantastic for my couloured hair. It makes it so soft.

Have a nice day.

I am a true product junkie - I love buying beauty and hair stuff. I'd love to have a peek at what everyone else is buying too soooo........

What did you buy today (or recently)

I have just bought:-

Paul Mitchell Supercharged Moisturising Treatment and Paul Mitchell Foaming Pomade
Monoi de Tahiti Oil

I know amla oil is good but can you stand the smell? Too acidic for my taste.

Just looked up Perricone Face finishing moisturiser. It sounds really good, look forward to reading what you think about it.

Amla oil is very strong, I couldn't keep it in my hair. I remember when I first tried it a few years ago, I put some on my ends and went to work - big mistake I could smell it for the whole day! Nowadays I'll leave it in my hair overnight as a pre shampoo treatment then wash it out the next day. I'll put up with the smell of this and Argan because they are so good for the hair. Only when I'm not going out that day though!

I've used the Perricone moisturiser for years; it's lovely suits my skin very well and it's an excellent base for make up. My skin feels hydrated for the whole day when I use it.

I've just purchased the Elemis TSV on QVC; ridiculously good value. In fact I probably should get a few more; would make good Christmas presents.

Thanks Lushness. Just bought some frankincense essential oil, I love the smell. I'm going to add it to water to make a mist spray for the really hot summer nights that might be coming!

I bought the Elemis tsv too, I'm looking forward to trying out the cleansing balm, but it will just have to wait it's turn.... Need to work my way through the backlog of other products, I'm a sucker for a tsv, especially when it's on easy pay!

I bought a small bottle of frankincense essential oil because I've been reading that it will lighten age spots - anyone had any experience with this oil? I am currently trying it on the backs of my hands where I have freckles/age spots. Will take photo as today is day 1 will look again in 7 days & take photo and if there is an improvement I will post here.

Today I ordered deluxe extensions for my new hairstyle. I chose russian natural blond hair 'cos it is known around the world for its flawless look. My hairdresser helped to choose the right color. I'll have my bithday party soon and I want to look gorgeous.

In NY currently so I thought I would treat myself to some products that I can't buy back home.

Went to Sephora and picked up Madam CJ Walker deep conditioner and the leave in cream.

Had another splurge in Sephora, well my mum did, I was like at the bill.

I bought Drybar Hot Toddy Blowout cream, Neutrogena Triple Moisture Cream and my mum bought me Madam CJ Scalp Exfoliator and the Pre Protein Treatment.

No more products for a while now!

I've just brought a new contouring palette plus this site has a sale on at the moment.

http://eu.feelunique.com/p/NYX-Highl...-Palette-16-2g

It's a great consistancy and no outrageous colours that match nobodies skin.

Based on the ingredients in my Monsia Skincare I bought shea butter, jojoba oil, and vit E oil to replenish stocks to make my hand & body cream and aloe vera gel to mix with rice flour for my face scrub.

I lasted nearly a month!

I ordered and just received Caruso Steam rollers. These are amazing; they make big beautiful curls and curl the hair through steam rather than heat so they're so much better for your hair. The curls last for days and gives a lot of body.

Best purchase for a while

Today, I bought a bottle of Joop Homme aftershave from Asda. People tell me that it smells nice on me, even though I don't really agree, but maybe they are right. I am still trying to find the ultimate aftershave, though. A lot of of them either smell rank on me, or they don't last for long on my skin. I think I have worked out that expensive aftershaves do smell a bit nicer on me than really cheap ones, though. I guess that the clue to that is in the price. I do have a soft spot for Old Spice and Jovan Musk, though, lol.
