I've had a look and can't find it but have emailed them about it. I'll let you know when I get a reply

Sorry to disappoint but Lakeland have mailed me that they've stopped selling it at the moment (it was called a frosted foam dispenser) but that they will consider restocking in the future if there's a demand.

its another santiary product - liek a mini cup you 'insert' into yourself that catches your um.......waste (is that a way to put it) then you remove it and pour the contents away. Others on the site use it so im sure they can recommend it.

I used to work in an intensive care unit in a local hospital. We regularily had a patient who produced too much haemaglobin in their blood and we would have to drain a litre of blood from them. We used to pour the blood on the roses outside the unit and we had the best roses in the area.

I use aqueous cream and a muslin cloth dipped in warm water to remove make up which is a good alternative to Liz Earle cleanser. Also dampen cotton wool before putting toner onto it-makes product go further. Buy large tub aqueous cream at chemist.

I used to buy Persil non bio powder in big boxes. Our washer is in a covered verdana with stuff that really should go in a shed anyway it was always getting knocked over!! I then tried own brand non bios cheaper but still losing loads with spillages. So now I buy the own brand tablets but only put one tablet in instead of the recommend 2 . It works fine and things are as clean as they used to be. I know I am getting double the washes it says on the packet and no waste!:j

i buy whole milk and when nobody is looking the milk gets a good glug of water from the tap to eek it out a little further. neither my son or my oh have twigged that i do this yet, i reckon this has saved me a small fortune over the years because both of them eat huge bowls of cereal everyday and sometimes they eat 2 bowls each, i certainly notice the difference doing my shopping monthly as i don`t buy nearly as much milk as i used to :j

Oooo I thought about this but o/h said "yuk it will just be horrible & watery- tomorrow off to buy some whole milk & will wash out the skimmed milk bottle
