    :) I tried the Tesco one but ended up singit as toilet cleaner as I wasn't really keen on it, though the blueness of it put me off more than the smell or the richness.
    I think I might try the others though.

    That deserves a thanks :)

    I also got one of those expensive Treacle Moon lemonade shower gels that usually retail for £2-3 for 75p and they are twice the size of Radox (just because the back label was torn off)

    I told all my friends and family not to buy me shower gel for Xmas and one friend bought me a set of 4 :rotfl: luckily they were smaller ones which will be useful for weekends away and festivals :T

    I can confirm we have used the Sainsburys Basics shower gel (really stocked up when it was 10p last time) as hand wash (just decant it into a hand wash dispenser) for over 12 months and it's absolutely fine. I have a feeling it's very very similar to (the same as??) Sainsburys Basics Hand Wash which is quite a lot more expensive.

    I was just going to suggest decanting it into an empty handwash bottle if you don't like it as shower gel, but Millicent beat me to it!

    I've read that a lot of people find these cheapie ones 'gloopy' and hard to lather up. I use one of those net shower puff thingies and have found this solves the problem. I think they're about 39p in wilkinsons.

    slightly sideways, but the value conditioners are really good IMO.


    I tried the sainsburys one last year and found that for my very long hair it made it very knotty. Possibly use this for shorter hair.:)
