Shower Gel

A bar of soap for me! I decided long ago to reduce my use of plastic, that meant cutting back on bottles of products and the first to go was shower gel, shampoo and conditioner. Soap is either Sanex or other mild soap and shampoo is a bar shampoo as is the conditioner both of which are produced in the U.K. Doing my bit for the planet!

Liz Earle. I must have got one when I was buying some skin care as I love the LE stuff and my skin tolerates it very happily - which is not always true of other makes. It's gloopy enough and I find they lasts for a reasonable time. I particularly like the Rosemary and Rock Rose and Orange Flower. They do matching body lotions too.

I also like their fragrances - they don't give me headaches as many perfumes do.

Badedas, use the bath stuff to as I love the smell.

I’m afraid I’m not a fan of shower gel, I don’t seem to be able to use it effectively! I prefer a bar of soap, usually Imperial Leather in the shower.

I don’t like flannels or sponges in the shower so have nothing to put the gel on with other than pouring it into my hand, this is not only very wasteful but also cold on the skin.

Is it only me?

I never see the point of a gel which just runs down the drain. Soap is best.

I use Dove for aging skin. I have a variety of lovely shower gels but they tend to irritate my skin. The dove one I use is the only one which moisturises my skin and doesn't cause me to scratch

I use Jo Malone in the mornings, and I have a Neom relaxing one for the evenings.

Totally agree that the cheaper ones are a false economy, I shower every day and my shower gels last for months ?

Oh dear , I think I should go back to bed and get up again, Molten

Molton!!!

Moulton

I'm using Molten Brown at the moment but without running upstairs to the bathroom I dont know which one it is (its pink/red) smells lovely and as you say lasts for ages.

I am a fan of Milton brown shower gels too, but unfortunately I’m the only one that can use them, as they make my husbands skin itch, he has to use sanex
