Going back to work soon after being on mat leave with dc3

Was thinking this morning how will i ever get out on time... maybe a nice shower gel will wake me up up and set me up for for the day HmmConfused

Well here’s hoping! Don’t mind paying a bit more if it works....

So ladies what’s do I need to buy??

I love Philosophy Unconditional Love. At first, can't smell anything but seconds later you get the most divine smell. Also love all of the Molton Brown - expensive but seem to last ages and the smell really lingers.

Those saying Badedas - do you use the foam bath as shower gel then? I haven't seen Badedas shower gel, only the bath stuff.

AppleCocoon · 23/03/2018 01:25

There is bubble bath (foam gelee) and shower gel (3 in 1).

They changed the formula a few years ago so it isn’t as wonderful as it used to be but still pretty damn good.

LucheroTena · 23/03/2018 06:14

Badedas and Fengal smell gak.

littlepeas · 23/03/2018 06:20

Korres Jasmine!!

Another vote for molton brown pink pepper pod.... treat yourself to the hand cream too for your handbag!

AbsolutelyCorking · 23/03/2018 06:59

Another vote for the body shop moringa.

Rosasaurus · 23/03/2018 07:10

Lush - "It's raining men"

That's my fave!!

Pythone · 23/03/2018 07:43

The White Company - Flowers

Original Source - Lavender and Tea Tree

Radyward · 23/03/2018 07:45

Clarins dynamisant and pink grapefruit from the body shop

GETTINGLIKEMYMOTHER · 23/03/2018 07:56

Badedas 3 in 1 - shower gel, shampoo and conditioner. Don't always use it for the last 2 though.
I've always loved the smell - never get tired of it.

TammyWhyNot · 23/03/2018 07:59

Original Source Mint and Tea Tree.

I wish they would put the hook back on the bottle, though.

GummyGoddess · 23/03/2018 08:02

Madara wild plum. It smells like marzipan to me, I love it so much. I'm just forcing myself to use up all the shower gel people keep giving me for birthdays and Christmas before I get some more.

pickledegglover · 23/03/2018 08:12

Chanel shower gel. Just makes me feel a bit special.
I don't get minty shower gel....it hurts!

Alicatz66 · 23/03/2018 08:16

Original Source Lime .. only a quid when it's on offer !! It would grieve me to pay for Expensive shower stuff .. you only wash it off !! Anything citrus is a good wake up ! Smile

elQuintoConyo · 23/03/2018 08:22

Penis-shaped soap. One that shoots out money!

Nothing gets me out of bed, except the dog's nose in my eye.

I use a bar of soap from Mercadona (Spanish supermarket, €1.40) rosemary flavour. Soap is the only thing that cleans me and i have avoided BO and upper-arm pimples for 3 years now Grin

Plus no plastic packaging. Oh and i bought one for my Christmas stocking and it is just about to run out, so it lasts ages.

SnowiestMountain · 23/03/2018 11:44

It's arrived!! It's definitely got an erm, distinctive, smell!! Grin

Cheap market research.

No shower gel will rouse me.

DobbyisFREE · 23/03/2018 12:08

Imperial Leather Cherry Bakewell does it for me. I find something particularly pleasant about smelling like a pudding.

HRTpatch · 23/03/2018 12:09

The yellow Clarins one

halfwitpicker · 23/03/2018 12:13

I love Crabtree and Evelyn soaps actually. There's a black Seaweed one that's lovely.

That and the thought of coffee gets me out of bed.

God yes forgotten how good the Source minty shower gel is. My mum comes over in a week or two, I'll get her to bring some.

That and some imperial leather Grin

Sod the teasmaid, this is an espressobutler.

WorriedandTerfy - agree re the REN Rose one. Is that Moroccan Rose Body Oil? So good in winter, too, if you're prone to snake skin, like me. But now I think I need a Nespresso machine by the bed, too. You sound like you have life licked.
