In the days of plastic I always used it, and although I've carried on buying their foundation I stopped using the skincare. It felt a bit extravagant, but I got a free gift as well so I was happy!

I imagine in the first few months, you are going to be so nervous of having that extra money you won't want to touch it!! But do treat Dave to something nice, as he has been an absolute rock for you over the last four years, and I can imagine he has seen you at your most rock bottom more than once.

Don't worry Mel, I will! I've already taken him out for a curry as I got a bonus from work last month and it's his birthday in September, and let's just say it won't be quite so frugal as in the last few years!

I'm going shopping today with daughter, shopping is not my passion and could very easily not go but she's excited as her firt proper salary is in today for her bless her and we've worked out her budget (she's very sensible unlike her Mother) and bank first to transfer x amount to savings and then she has a list of 6th form stuff she needs. x

Just noticed the blog dashboard has changed - still user friendly though.

Skip - I can relate to Clinique, the one thing I would never give up is my Estee Lauder [:)]

Avon for me, but just to keep the dry skin at bay.

I'm still not speaking to our Avon lady!

I can't use anything with perfume in it on my face as it brings me out in spots, hence Clinique suiting me.
