Itchy scalp shampoo for eczema not dandruff. I used to use Polytar but it's now virtually impossible to get and if you do find it then the price is ridiculous.

I'd love to trial epilators. Following the recent discussion on GN it seems obvious that facial hair removal is a problem for so many of us.

Larnipoo42 Tue 02-Jan-18 17:37:44

Eye make up that stays put

I would love to try some form of light box for SAD. I find every year my depression sadly picks up and my tablets I take no longer work half as well, I exercise where I can, but have heard light boxes can work wonders.

A cordless vacuum cleaner please.

I'm not sure whether vacuum cleaners are getting heavier or I'm not as strong as I think I am!

antheacarol55 Tue 02-Jan-18 10:17:56

Anything for backache and neck pain .
I have tried different expensive pillows and memory mattresses but still can’t not get a good nights sleep or rest

farmerswifey Tue 02-Jan-18 09:28:58

I would love to trial a face cream or something to make my wrinkles less wrinkly.

Audrie57 Tue 02-Jan-18 01:33:05

I would like a decent cream that gets rid of wrinkles and lines. I have thinning hair, and its very thin or should I say fine hair, its like baby hair something very good without costing the earth.
Finally I would like to test a steam cleaner in the home, that does everything, floors, curtains, and presses to would love it if it all worked.and Finally happy new year to you all.

Products to help ease the misery of the menopause. I appreciate some women sail through it but for others, it's just sheer misery. All sorts of products are aimed at this problem but how many actually work, I'd love to know.

pinkjj27 Mon 01-Jan-18 20:41:35

I would love to try a supporting memory m allergy free mattress and or a neck pillow. I never sleep due to back and neck spin and skin allergy so I would love to know more about this mind-field of products.

Clairemike Mon 01-Jan-18 19:12:52

Soup maker

ghartfarm Mon 01-Jan-18 12:06:54

I too would be interested in weight loss, ready- prepared diets. I need to lose weight as my health is suffering. Has anyone experience of the 'natural ketones' ready prepared diet, please?

grannybiker Mon 01-Jan-18 10:54:49

I've signed up as a new tester, (Maybe tempted by the chance to test wine, LOL!)
I'd be interested to test garden weedkillers that won't harm wildlife.

GrannyBanjo Mon 01-Jan-18 10:06:52

anti aging skin creams and other products for us old wrinklies ? Especially neck cream lol.

emmav6 Sun 31-Dec-17 23:04:43

i would love to review a vacuum or clothes smile

MrRichTea Sun 31-Dec-17 17:10:34

I'd love to test an electric razor

Vhall254 Sun 31-Dec-17 14:58:36

air fresheners/air wicks that make the house smell nice without lots of chemicals and keep their smell.

tabbaz Sun 31-Dec-17 14:20:52

I would love to test a real bean to cup coffee machine ... I have looked at many but really get confused! I also love the look of the multi-cookers - but again so many to choose from!

Molly10 Sun 31-Dec-17 11:21:50

I would be interested to product test just about everything that has been mentioned so far on this thread. Also air purifiers, which do not seem to have been mentioned. Whether there are real health benefits to using them and why.

goose1964 Sun 31-Dec-17 10:19:35

fit bit. mineral make up and a bean to cup coffee maker

Pumpkin2 brilliant idea, i am sure that many of us struggle with using every day objects that we take for granted until the day comes when we can't use them any longer. I find i can not peel potatoes with a knife anymore so have to use a veg peeler.Using a knife gives me terrible cramps in my hands for some reason.

Pumpkin2 Sat 30-Dec-17 23:38:50

I'd like to test products that help do tasks when you get older. As an example, I have limited movement in my left hand and would love to try various easy grip nail clippers.

JoG3512 Sat 30-Dec-17 21:21:01

I would love to product test all of that wine - I am your lady!!
On a more serious note I would love to test one of those cake mixers - they look fabulous!!

Dannydog1 Sat 30-Dec-17 20:47:25

Tweezers - I find it really hard to get a good pair

cheekychicken24 Sat 30-Dec-17 17:47:02

Skincare would be good - maybe high performing high street brands. Also cooing products. Maybe some of these spice kits or rubs I keep seeing that are supposed to make curries etc but without the high sugar jars of sauces.
