February was a funny old month and I hardly used up anything so I thought it was worth while waiting until the end of March to see if I could find a few more gems to write about in an empties post. Well it was definitely the right thing to do as March was a… Continue reading Empties – February/March 2017

Vichy Aqualia Thermal – Review
It seems like a long time since I last wrote about any Vichy products - which is odd really as Vichy is a brand that I always return to for quality, reliability and purse friendliness. Also, while I've been busy reviewing products from other brands I haven't had the updates that I used to get… Continue reading Vichy Aqualia Thermal – Review

It's been developed to recreate the restorative effects of… Continue reading Reviews – Vichy Idealia Skin Sleep and more

Empties – June 2015
This month has been such a busy one - with 10 days away from blogging in Marrakech it seems to be over almost before it's begun. With the cost of the holiday and moving home not long before, money is tight and so I've been trying hard to use up products rather than buy more. Clearly I… Continue reading Empties – June 2015
