    Baby Powder in a bath? I would imagine it looked (and felt) a little like wallpaper paste? :rotfl:

    bubbles are so overrated:D

    and the eternal magic perfume because it lasts about 10 minutes on my skin and if I keep spraying it, I get a headache:o

    avon is so hit and miss sometimes:(

    I found that with |Eternal Magic too - smells divine, but doesnt last. :(

    Oh Kaz {HUGS} :rotfl: how old is your DD? We've had the exact same problem with our DD - she's 16 now and beyond talking to/listening to us but she dressed like a stripper from just after turning 13 :eek: We had the same "you're not wearing that without leggings/tights" arguments and the "please don't go out without a coat it's below zero today" one - it all fell on deaf ears - she'd just take the leggings off on the bus or 'forget' her coat constantly.

    Sounds like I've been pretty lucky so far - my 15 year old dresses trendy, but not tarty. I've had the argument about wearing a coat when its freezing too!! :eek:

    Going to send a BS tea tree facial wash to the CS - none of us like the smell!!!
    Might end up doing the same with the Elle McPherson body butter - since my dd keeps complaining it makes me smell manly!! :o

    I need to go to bed.

    The ads on tv are making me spend pennies on b**ts.

    But I need "3 day straight" spray, don't I...?

    Grrr :rotfl:

    No you don't need it, it's all a con and probably won't work.
    The thing is I wash my hair every day, so it would be useless if I bought it that's what I keep telling myself:A
    Also am I the only one who likes S&G Flakeaway?

    :shhh: okay, I probably shouldn't be admitting this but...I tried a radox coconut shower smoothie simply because it said 'DO NOT DRINK' (yeah, I'm such a rebel:doh:) I ate a seed/oat from lush porridge soap and a bit of sweetie pie shower jelly (it tasted good:o) and some mange too but you're allowed to eat that:rotfl:

    Can I just clear something up, adilade?
    did you eat MANGE?
    or mange tout? :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I used to eat vicks vapour balm when I was a child, can't imagine why.

    Kaz - you are scaring me, I have a 7 year old DD and she want's to wear some odd things already. What i find really annoying is that really inappropriate clothing is available in their sizes and all the pretty things go up to 5/6 years with the odd exception. She still really likes pretty things so we are OK at the moment, apart from having to hunt them down but I can see the signs. It doesn't help when all the singers she likes dress like that or don't bother dressing at all.
