We really should have a category headed “Trivia” but “Chat “ will have to do.
Shower gels- what do you use and why ? (Don’t say washing!)
I have three or four on the go at any one time and for me it depends on my mood
If I am feeling ‘fragile” and in need of pampering, I use L’Occitane Rose Shower Oil, because it is so moisturising, on “normal” days, their Rose Calisson or maybe Molton Brown Geranium Nefertum but today, feeling a bit snuffly I went for one of my all time favourites, Molton Brown Eucalyptus to “clear the tubes”
I have also come to the conclusion that cheap body wash is a false economy as it too often frequently has the consistency of washing up liquid and lasts no time at all, unlike e.g.Molton Brown which being thicker lasts for ages - as does the fragrance smile

Sanex, Imperial Leather, Radox, Nivea and Dove. Dove is definitely my favourite it makes your skin feel
moisturised.

Chateau du savon, no plastic waste, even in the postal boxes. The soaps for dry skin on your face are brilliant for your body.

Dove soap for me, especially as I only use the shower to rinse off after my bath.
Nivea do a lovely moisturising cream designed for after shower use. Great if your skin is dry.

Bicarbonate of soda and/or ground oatmeal (allergic to soap, perfumes and detergent) along with ionised water.

I searched for vegan/vegan toiletries on you-know-who to give as stocking fillers and found lots of soaps which members of my family were delighted to receive. I try not to buy anything that has been tested on animals.

That’s £30 spent, Mogsmaw. I’ve got a birthday present for someone, as well. smile

Bar soap for us. Organii or Dr Bronner. Not the cheapest, but they last for ages and the scent lasts right to the end!

This morning I used a shampoo for children.
'Mango', it smells lovely and washed me all over as well. ?

DH bought me some L'Occitane shower oil for Christmas. It is lovely.
I usually use a shampoo bar that you can use on hair and body. I buy them from the Funky Soap Company.

Another L'Occitane fan here. For those that think 'fancy soap is too expensive', these bars last much longer than your typical bar soap. The verbena is my favourite, so refreshing.

It is not available in my town, so I pick up a few bars when I am travelling, or I can order on line. My daughter knows I like it, and has a store near her, so I will receive it as a well loved gift sometimes.

Not a fan of shower gel, and tend to use it as bath bubbles if I do receive some as a gift.

Armynanny

Bath and Body Works are my favourite. They aren’t cheap but last for ages and they have an amazing choice of fragrances. Just wish we had their stores over here.

So do I Armynanny. I love the names they choose for their products too. ?
