Starbucks ginger muffins. I nearly cried when they broke the news to me in my local one.

wichitalinemanswoman I know B&M sell monsoon/accessorise perfumes. Not sure if they sell the one you mentioned but it might be worth a look!

I still mourn Boots’ green hair gel. Can’t remember the name of it, came in a tub with a white lid, smelt divine & nicely texturised my hair Sad

PestoCaffeinisto i loved the smell of that, sure it was called country something

The body shop still do an Egyptian milk and honey bath powder,

The mum antiperspirants don't ever have the yellow one anymore, it was the best.

Loved vanilla impulse too, takes me back to 1995! Superdrug briefly brought back vanilla kisses a couple of years ago and I bought loads but it's gone again Angry

Body shop cocoa butter moisturiser. The lack of this breaks my heart.

ifIwerenotanandroid · 16/06/2019 20:15

I've been chasing body sprays in Boots: as soon as I find one I like & get used to it, it disappears. At the moment I'm onto one from Superdrug called Bloom: the Mandarin & Lime Basil one is a tiny bit like Hermes Terre (which likewise vanished from local shops, last time I tried to buy some).

Years ago there was a fantastically easy to use hair dye which came in a pack like a solid twist-up deodorant. Even I could use it, just where I needed it, as I started to go grey. Best product ever. Then it vanished.

Also M&S cheese toasties & miniature hazelnut meringuey fingers with choc between & nuts on top. Whyohwhyohwhy?

ifIwerenotanandroid · 16/06/2019 20:22

Also Lush/B Never Too Busy to be Beautiful 'Assassin' perfume.

Unbelievably wonderful, like walking in a damp forest, crushing chrysanthemum leaves underfoot.

Urban Decay's Big Buddha Brush.
Brilliant bronzing brush.
They took it off the market.
B*stards

Revlon Flex shampoo and conditioner, and Cadbury marble bars 😢

beanaseireann · 17/06/2019 18:19

I loved the smell of Revlon Flex

PolaDeVeboise · 17/06/2019 20:12

Gucci Envy perfume

BlondeBumshelll · 17/06/2019 20:22

Tesco chicken and broccoli pie thing, like cottage pie but with chicken and broccoli in white sauce. Amazing

Revlon SkinLights, loved the smell of it.

Birdseye (I think) chicken lattice's.

F+F online range.

I mourned the demise of Radox Original.

But now it's back! Yay!

Nu by YSL

A shampoo which was around in the late 90s early noughties, about the time Fructis came out. It was called Organics and in a green bottle with a rounded top. It made my hair so soft and shiny but I can't use hair products with SLS in these days, so not sure I'd even use it now.

ChardonnaysPrettySister · 18/06/2019 08:15

Another one, Aveda Scalp Remedy lotion in the brown glass bottle.

Those who mourn Asda carrot and potato mini waffles - they're back!!

Just been to Ikea to buy the GURLI curtains to match my golden-yellow gurli cushion covers and they've stopped doing them. So infuriating, my dining room is crying out for these.
