    I bought both last year when they first reissued some of their 80's stuff. Not sure if it was the 'rose tinted glasses' or the change in recipe but sadly, it wasn't as good as I remembered.

    Last year I discovered that their honey shampoo and conditioner made my curly hair beautifully soft and smelt lovely. Then they went and discontinued it - typical!!! Off to have a nose to see if any sign of it making a come back.

  • It's been back for a while, along with some other goodies from the 80's as part of Anita's favourites. Remember Dewberry shower gel?

    It's not quite the same, the original conditioner looked just like mashed banana as I remember it, The new one seems a bit synthetic but does give a nice shine.
  • I cant get enough of the passion fruit cleansing gel. It smells great and fab price. I used to have the ice blue shampoo which is refreshing! Like all minty shampoos make sure you only wash your hair with it, and not the more .....erm sensitive areas! I did that in a shower with a window open one day and when the draught came in the room it was not a nice sensation!

  • Wish Body Shop would bring back the non minty toothpaste they used to do in the mid 80's - it was kind of herby -but nice!

    ah Dewberry - seemed to be everyones fav back then... happy days!

    I bought that last year as well, no idea why because I hate passion fruit and normally avoid everything with passion fruit in it.

    But I love this, it does smell great.:)

    What kind of skin would you say it's suitable for? my skin is really dry, specially at this time of the year. I get loads of spots around my chin (I'm 27 - it's a bit embarrasing!) and don't have a specific cleanser, I tend to just buy whatevers on offer! Don't know why but when I looked at this I though it might dry my skin out more lol think it's cos of the acid/citrusy fruit. What do you both think as users? Coul be another thing to get with my groupon coupon lol
