Body Scrub Thingy-Madooey

[China Doll]

I've brought some new body moisturiser (Jergers on special offer in Superdrugs) and I'm really rather chuffed with it. However I've noticed recently that I don't think it's absorbing as well as it was previously and I think that's down to my shower gel (a Dove one). I use a toner on my face so that when my moisturiser goes on it absorbs properly and wondered if there's something similar I should be using as a shower gel?

And please don't tell me I have to start taking more than shampoo, conditioner and gel to the shower, I don't want to have to pack a suitcase to use the bathroom... ;0)

Cheers

Do you exfoliate?

Tell the OH to stop substituting the soap with lard..........

Lmao! He threatens to clean the sink with my 'phil mitchell' shampoo on a fairly regular basis actually craft...

puzzled - I use one of those expholiating shower thingys when I use my shower gel, the ones that look like a scrunched up piece of net. So yes, I think I do. Although admittedly I've noticed I need a new one.

My daughter saw that her scrunched up piece of nylon for the shower said it had over a hundred uses, but she could only think of one use for it!!!!

Those scrunchy bits of net are rubbish, get yourself some Body Shop exfoliating gloves. They increase the lather of your body wash as well as removing dead skin cells, leaving your skin as smooth as a baby's bottom.

It's good to buy a body scrub as well, Boots and Body Shop do good one with bits of almond or apricot kernel etc in, to use in the bath. I get dry skin and it does help with the exfoliation. Scrunch things don't really have much effect.

Mmmm... I had a pair of those gloves I brought from boots or superdrugs and I thought they were bloody useless actually but I'll have a look at those body shop ones. I'll look at body scrubs as well, sounds like it's a body scrub thingy I need after all! :c)

[puzzled54]

Those net things are good for giving a good lather, but not much good for exfoliating. If you don't like the gloves, try a body brush.

[ummmm]

I think the gloves are brilliant.

I've had a look today and I've ordered a santuary salt body scrub thing and some of their gloves... I'm getting a free vanity case thingy too.... so watch this space.

I never realised rainey days, refusing to go out and surfing the net could be do damn expensive.

[ummmm]

I still want to know how I managed to spend £40 on nothing yesterday!!!

[China Doll]

It's easily done!

I'm refusing to look at ebay.

[ummmm]

Can't be arssed with ebay. I'm a simple girl...give me too much choice and come over all confused.

It's great for shoe shopping. I hate crowds.

[ummmm]

I hate crowds (unless there's a bar about), I hate shopping and I hate spending money..!!
