I'm working my way through these huge sizes too and am keen to buy again. The shampoo I bought whilst in the US and has a pump on it though the conditioner here doesn't have one and is becoming diffictult to get out of the bottle. Anyone know where I can buy the bottles with pumps for next time or where I can buy pumps on their own?

could you not save the pump bottles and decant the product from the bottles without into those?

Lush Ambrosia Shaving Cream: WIBA? No. This was from a grab bag a couple of years ago. It was alright, but the bottle was an absolute nightmare to remove the product from as it was that awful stiff plastic.

i got that in a grab bag too! i thought it was a bit odd and the SA insisted it wasn't just for men and you can use it on your legs too. think i got 2 uses out of it and gave up with getting anything else out of the bottle :rotfl:

UU this morning Herbal Essences shampoo and conditioner sachets the orange one, must admit it has left my hair nice and soft but my scalp has been playing up lately and I dont think this has done it any more favours but wanted it gone.

Ins FREE Clinique Mascara from the swap got the High Impact as love this! In from TBS got an email for a free lip butter so got a coconut one and also bought a bottle of Rainforest shampoo as this is one of the few shampoos at the mo that my scalp seems to tolerate. I am gutted as I bought a large bottle of Aveda Colour shampoo and that is making my scalp dry and itchy so I am going to try and alternate with the rainforest one as the Aveda is to expensive to part with.

Have you tried this dry shampoo before, and if so, does it work well?
I saw the post about the BOG2F and it was temptingly cheap, but not sure whether to buy it as all the alternatives to Batiste that I've ever tried haven't been very good.
