I love having a brouse around boots.
When I'm skint I see loads that I would like.
Soon as I have an opportunity to spend a little in there I get overwhelmed and buy nothing.
I've got £30 worth of points that I'd like to spend.
Maybe some hair styling products.
I've got thick dark long hair that I blow dry.
Or make up.
I could do with a cream blush. My Bobbi brown pot rouge has nearly finished. I have olive skin.
Or a nice cleanser or balm to remove make up.
Normal skin with no issues.

I am saving mine for a waterpik flosser

fixedit · 03/03/2015 20:46

I'd put it towards some perfume Smile

A hairdryer, electric razor (present for DH) or electric toothbrush.

I'm saving my points to get a No7 advent calendar. I bought one last year (when it was £35) and loved it. Well worth the money.

I save mine for Clarins facial oil. You'll need to save another £2 though...

ihatethecold · 03/03/2015 21:00

Got an electric toothbrush already.
I do need to replace my clarins perfume.
Think I need a little more for that.

Something nice for yourself like a new perfume or makeup (foundation/blusher/lipsticks)

TheHappinessTrap · 03/03/2015 21:04

Is good you're thinking this through. I always put it towards something special that I know I'll like, until last time when for some stupid reason I put it on a fancy hair brush that I never, ever use. I hate the brush for the points I wasted on it.

ihatethecold · 03/03/2015 21:13

Part of the problem is I know some of the stuff in there I would treat myself to like make up brushes I know I can buy for half the price on amazon.
I just end up going round in circles.

Nappies.

CMP69 · 03/03/2015 21:17

I always save mine for suncream and the like for a holiday Sad

douchbag · 03/03/2015 21:18

I'm saving mine for a ysl pressed powder

laurentperrier · 03/03/2015 21:21

Make up or perfume.

FirstOfficerDouglasRichardson · 03/03/2015 21:26

I'd save for more points and then buy Tom Ford Velvet Orchid.

LabradorMama · 03/03/2015 21:29

I can't help you, I have £158 of points and no idea what to buy. They just keep adding up and I've still no idea. Maybe perfume or some fancy moisturiser? Go to a really big Boots for plenty of choice. I think I'll go to one with plenty of fancy makeup counters

ihatethecold · 03/03/2015 21:32

My local one is quite big with all the premium brands.
They do have smash box which I always drool over.

A nice pair of sunnies for the summer.

bluesbaby · 04/03/2015 00:37

I spend mine as I go, so I tend to just get a free product of whatever I actually need rather than saving for something I might not normally buy.

mewkins · 04/03/2015 14:13

Sunglasses

treaclesoda · 04/03/2015 14:18

this cleansing balm is lovely. My skin has never looked better than when I was using this is the evening, and Cetaphil in the morning. As soon as my current cleanser is finished I'm going to buy some more of this.

frankietwospots · 04/03/2015 15:58

The Clarins Blue Orchid facial oil smells divine. I've got some on my hand at the moment (was testing it earlier in Debenhams) and can't stop sniffing it.
