to now ask you to name the products you LOVE and couldn't/wouldn't be without?

[Heartbrokenmum73]

I've absolutely loved the thread on crap stuff people have bought (and now know which washing machines/hoovers/deodorants to avoid).

Thought it might be interesting to see which products/appliances you love, be they beauty, household stuff, pet products, etc. Always useful to get 'thumbs-ups' from people. And as someone who rarely wears make-up (because I don't know what I'm buying/how to apply the damn stuff) it would be great to hear about essential beauty buys, rather than what the magazines tell us to buy. Beauty Editors seem to make a lot more money than most women.

For me it's my gadgets - iPod, Beats headphones (amazing sound quality on them) and my Kindle (even though I'm still buying stupid amounts of 'real' books too - they're so cheap in charity shops and supermarkets!).

So, what would/could you not be without?

Faves are the rose bath bombs, and rose Argan oil body creme.
The fresh farmacy soap is the best soap for sensitive skin I have ever used.
Liz Earle is the only face stuff I have found that I can use...can't use Clinique, boots protect and perfect...any of them...but liz Earle has made my skin healthier and better looking.
I am currently using aveeno as body lotion - I have a few excema patches ATM and its dealings with them beautifully.
I will have to try Freya bras...I am a FF cup too.

aldis passionfruit chocolate, my tassimo coffee machine,

dolly vicks rubbed on yellow or thick flakey nails or on those with a possible fungal infection clears them up and makes the purty again. In record quick time too, less than a week to make my manky big toe nails look all nice .
