Thinking of cooling off when the heat strikes???
MAGICOOL is the answer and I speak from experience here.smilesmile

Last year I suffered with the heat BIG TIME, so this year I told myself I'm not suffering AGAIN I did something about it, I researched and researched and had excellent suggestions for Magicool, which I bought, I used and I now recommend.

Yeahhhhh, the days of wilting to mush have GONE...

( I wonder if i would get paid for advertising??? Haaaaa )
?

It is good, used in 40 heat and cheaper than the other one, under £5.

Can I ask where you buy it please? Looked online and it is £8 a can?

Boots stock cooling spray including 50ml size for £3.99. Been using it for years does the job lovely! And can order online but have to pay postage.

Thank you for thumbs up on Magicool! Which one is an all rounder please? Shall face temps of 40 deg in August .

Well I have had advice to couple the Magicool with a hand held fan and i have tried it this a.m ( not in 40° I have to add ) and it was perfect, cooled me down a treat...

I have only tried the Magicool so I can only give feedback on that... smilesmilesmile

Thank you, I’m getting some!

You can buy in bulk online. I bought 6 cans last year for around £12 and I mainly use mine at night when I’m
too hot. My husband has got used to the sound of hissing which sounds very loud in the middle of the night. I store them in the fridge usually

Place a large bottle of frozen water in front of a fan and it’s absolute blissful

Hi everyone, I don’t know if this will help but Magicool used to do two types of cooling spray one just to get your temperature down and one to deal with prickly heat, I think that it used to be in an orange spray tin.
They’re both excellent, seeing as I haven’t been to hotter climes since 2018 I don’t know if I’ll still be susceptible to prickly heat
hopefully next year hey?

I’ve got cooling towels I bought off Qvc and they come with a pack to store them and you can hook onto bags etc

I'm heat intolerant to the point of being practically bedridden if the temperature excess 23⁰C

Indoors I use an aircon unit or a fan with a bowl of ice cubes in front of it, a cooling towel around the neck plus plenty of fluids.
If I'm forced to venture otdoors I have to have a cooling towel around my neck and a spare in a plastic bag of iced water, a neck fan, a small spray bottle of iced water plus lots of fluids

Oh, Harmonypuss, I feel your pain.
It’s awful isn’t it.
I have a lovely garden with a lovely view, and I’d love to be able to sit and enjoy it.
I’m so envious of folk who enjoy this dreadful weather

Excellent, I try it.

ANYTHING to help ...... smile
