Saw this advert in a Cosmopolitan magazine today at the hairdressers!

mmm...conditioner softens it, and costs about 2p for the area required. Oil sounds as if it might lead to unfortunate zits.

I'm sure the pound shop sells argan oil.

Well I suppose it's for people who want a silky muff. I mean I wouldn't spend £35 on muff moisturiser but I suppose companies keep trying to find the next big product. Who knew eyebrows would turn into a billion dollar industry!

I'm a committed sporner.... zits you say?

Nup. Can't see it.

The80sweregreat · 23/03/2017 20:54

seen it all now. no thanks, shower gel is fine with me and a dab of talc from savers.

DerFlabberghast · 23/03/2017 20:55

£35? Bugger that, Argan Oil's the thing.

I wonder if you will start getting hair dye for when one goes grey?

floraeasy · 23/03/2017 20:56

You get hair dye for pubes.

Dontactlikeyouknowme · 23/03/2017 20:58

Imagine seeing that on a shelf in your mates bathroom. They would never live it down.

maddening · 23/03/2017 20:58

perhaps there will be a granny chic grey dye for fanjo fashion

khajiit13 · 23/03/2017 20:59

Well I wouldn't buy it. But I can't see the issue tbh. Is it necessary? Well, no. But neither are a lot of beauty products.

AliceByTheMoon · 23/03/2017 20:59

Yeah to the hair dye for pubes - my aunt showed me hers once. I think she waxes everything now though. I'll inquire.

(disclaimer-we are very close in age and great mates. It's not odd, is it?)

squoosh · 23/03/2017 21:02

On a slight tangent, has anyone seem an ad for V.I.Poo? Now that product stopped me in my tracks 😄

Nospringflower · 23/03/2017 21:04

Yes Alice it us odd!

Squoosh dropping of the devils dumplings!
DP says that every time he goes to the bathroom now! Envy (not envy!)

I saw the VI Poo ad - I nearly started a thread on here, but then decided I needed a few days to digest the full horror of it.

WelliesAndPyjamas · 23/03/2017 21:06

Wow 😄

squoosh · 23/03/2017 21:06

From what I can make out it is some kind of air freshener that you spray in the toilet before making a ladylike deposit. I think it must form some kind of oily surface trapping any unladylike smells 💩

AliceByTheMoon · 23/03/2017 21:07

You're welcome. :)

floraeasy · 23/03/2017 21:09

Fanjo deodorant has been around for decades. It's just that the range of products specifically for them is expanding into fur oil now....

Iris65 · 23/03/2017 21:11

Fad.

squoosh · 23/03/2017 21:11

I prefer the idea of pube oil to Fanny deodorant. Deodorants encourage women to feel ashamed of their natural scent whereas the oil seems to be more of an enhancer than a disguiser.

squoosh · 23/03/2017 21:12

Thanks Alice! 😬

TimTamTerrier · 23/03/2017 21:15

Please tell me that V.I.Poo is a joke. I just laughed until I accidentally inhaled a bit of my oatcake. Grin
