I had a spray in my case(as well as dry shampoo) but DH was horrified when he found out and said I should not take aerosols on a plane as they can explode:eek:so what can I take ?
:rotfl:
I always take sprays - a mini on the plane to freshen up during the flight, and full size in my suitcase. I've been doing this for years, on many flights (including lots of long-hauls), and never had a problem with explosions!MFW 2017 #123 2018: £1,852.64/£39,200 (4.7%)0 -
Rosemary, don't you have solid, deo sticks in the UK? You can pick up travel size ones from any drugstore in North America. No explosions, no pressure cans to worry about.
arg, can't make the pictures link, but Dove, Nivea, etc. all make them. We hardly see roll ons over here.0 -

Rosemary - I have taken aerosols on planes too without any problems.
Re the Bobbi Brown palettes I can't remember the name of the one I have but it has 9 shadows and 6 lipglosses and was a seasonal one for Christmas, the colours look so pretty but it is really hard to get any noticeable colour on my eyelids. They may not all be like that but I would expect their products to be excellent across the board.
Have two uu
Mandara Spa Tropical Blooms Body Cream 50ml - nice scent but took a bit of effort to rub in. Probably WNBA but still have another in the stash.
Sanctuary Spa Therapists Secret Facial Oil - 30ml, this was a LHJ but a rather nice one. Have another in the stash but for now have moved onto a Rosehip Oil.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

Evening.
Thank goodness it's Friday tomorrow.
UU's
Joico moisture recovery mist 300 ml WNBA did not do anything to my hair and lasted over 7 months. In the end I actually took the instuctions of applying it generously probably too far and it took my hair hours to dry as after applying it my hair would be soaking wet.
Fortune cookie soap bubble bar in down to earth WNBA smelt lovely but did not make any bubbles
Thalgo 24 hour caffeine cream sachet WNBA very expensive and not sure what it is supposed to do.
Murad pomegranate exfoliating mask sachet WNBA my face tingled far too much for my liking so I washed it off quickly.
Dermalogica daily microfoliant sachet WMBA l do like the way this leaves my skin.
La Roche posay corective treatment 5 ml WBA I did like this product and it did last well.
My birchbox is waiting for me at the postbox and the order I made a couple of weeks ago has been dispatched today.
Making a list has definitely made me think alot more and has focused me on getting rid of things. I am still targeting sachets ( really don't like them), open products and things I am not a fan off.0 -
IN/TA - sachet of Rimmel Stay Matte foundation. Came free in a magazine. Apparently this was Ivory, but I looked like I'd been tangoed. I know I had a meeting in Essex today, but this was maybe a bit excessive :rotfl: (no offence to Essex ladies!)0

Forgot I also UU a bottle of Right Guard deodourant - this was ok, I got it as part of a Bzz Campaign. It kept foaming up when I put it on though, so not sure that I'll buy it for myself.0
