Linko beer shampoo

The original dove shampoo and conditioner when it very first came out it had the scent of the dove soap bar and was heavenly but they changed it really quickly. In about 2008 they did an amazing smelling antiperspirant called 'sensitive' with a pale green lid. Only the spray version. It smelled so good and lasted well.

More recently dove did a scent of their deodorant with a pale pink lid that smelled like baby powder. Best ever but discontinued. Why do they do this?

These funny little ice lollies called coolbitz it was fruit sorbet in the shape of feet covered in thin white chocolate and came in like a bag of crisps. They were amazing.

A dior foundation that I used once only once in about 2005 it was the best one I have ever used matt and full coverage, smelt amazing and was pale enough for me. They discontinued it never to be seen again.

Armani white perfume.

Agent provocateur strip perfume. My absolute fave nothing is even similar and I have been on so many perfume websites to try and buy something similar but it just doesn't exist.

Fizzy drinks without bloody aspartame- tastes like plastic to me! I drink pop occasionally and am under no illusion that it's healthy - give me the real sugar.

Elphame · 26/01/2020 11:35

Can’t get the sugar version anymore and the new formulation is horrible.
