I came home from work about 10 minutes ago to a note from my DH on the fridge (where we leave need milk notes) saying 'we've run out of the bumpy shampoo can you get more? Xx'

We don't own 'bumpy shampoo ' I went up stairs to find in the bathroom bin the bottle of Jo Malone lime basil and mandarin shower exfoliating gel...

He's used the whole fucking thing in just over a month!! I was saving it for when I wanted a hot bath or long shower after a hard day at my new job! I hadn't even used it yet !

Aibu to Insist it's replaced? He's a fucking heathen who usually washes his whole body with head and shoulders. It was totally wasted on him 😭

Bumpy shampoo I like this bloke. Grin
Please let us know if he orders some?

Hengine · 08/11/2018 19:28

At least he wrote a note that you’d run out!

BarbaraofSevillle · 08/11/2018 19:34

This reminds me of the DH who kept washing his face with toilet disinfectant wipes and said they smelt 'toilety'

Is the same DH who ate the fatball, or is there more than one of them?

Justcallmelu · 08/11/2018 19:34

I'd bump him off. The bumpy idiot.
Although, you can't deny the idiot has got taste.

Theweasleytwins · 08/11/2018 19:35

Reminds me of he Fat Ball threadGrin

If Jo Malone does an advent calendar, now is the time to give him a link to it.

Takes me back this one op. My late dad was a huge policeman, very hairy body (sorry tmi). He used to love a long bath of an evening and came downstairs complaining about the new bubble bath not foaming and he'd used the whole lot. Turns out he had used my whole bottle of Estee Lauder bath oil and his whole hairy bod was a greasy mess. He looked blankly at me when I exploded. Beyond yuck.

Yes, he needs to replace it pronto alongside a candle to make up for his lack of sophistication.

LyingWitchInTheWardrobe2726 · 08/11/2018 19:43

They do, Sassitude but it's sold out. :(

LonnyVonnyWilsonFrickett · 08/11/2018 19:44

Bumpy? I'll bump him!

Do not ask him to replace - he'll walk into Jo Malone, faint at the price and then go and get you some itchy shit from lush that'll give you thrush. Extract £40 from his wallet. That's enough for wine too.

Catpyjama · 08/11/2018 19:48

I'd be foaming

(Sorry)

DH did try to brush his teeth with my fancy cleansing balm-in his defence it was also in a tube and we had a newborn. He didn't get very far, either!

lolaflores · 08/11/2018 19:48

I'm off to Superdrug tomorrow. This has been eye opening I must say.
Jesus. His scalp must be red raw!and itchy.
Silly sod

HRTFT because I didn't get past This reminds me of the DH who kept washing his face with toilet disinfectant wipes and said they smelt 'toilety'. 😂

RussellTheRaven · 08/11/2018 19:51

When I first met DH, he stayed over at mine and had a wash before coming to bed. When I kissed him he face smelt very distinctive. It took me a few seconds to place the smell. It was femfresh!

Mix56 · 08/11/2018 19:52

Fwahaha Get a cheap copy from Aldi, and the stick a handful of used cat litter in it fish the empty bottle out of the bin & decant, he is such an idiot he won't know the difference

WitchesHatRim · 08/11/2018 19:58

This reminds me of the time my DF used some of my mums expensive moisturiser when he had sunburn.

Lets just say he never did it again Grin

Wanttomakemincepies · 08/11/2018 20:03

Completely unacceptable. However a good exfoliating shampoo once a week is fab. Just don't be tempted by the L'Oréal one in the tub. Not worth it at all.

FortyFeet · 08/11/2018 20:15

omg hun! men eh? what ARE they like lol

MargotLovedTom1 · 08/11/2018 20:20

Well it can't have much of a lingering scent if you've never once had a waft of it in the last month he's been using it.

MickHucknallspinkpancakes · 08/11/2018 20:44

My DB used his wife's Clinique cleansing bar to wash the coal dust from his hands because it was in the downstairs bathroom.

Thought it was just normal soap in a fancy tray.

BlueBug45 · 08/11/2018 20:49

Grin @RussellTheRaven

Gabilan · 08/11/2018 20:53

All this is making me wonder just how special any of this stuff is, and how much is just fancy packaging.

ChasedByBees · 08/11/2018 20:54

Has he realised how much it cost yet?

OKhitmewithit · 08/11/2018 21:02

I assume the bits are micro plastic and adding to the shit that our oceans and seas are awash with

RCohle · 08/11/2018 21:42

Why would you assume that?

The manufacture and sale of products containing plastic microbeads has, since 9 January and 19 June respectively, been banned in England - see The Environmental Protection (Microbeads) (England) Regulations 2017. There is equivalent legislation in force in Scotland and Wales.

The Jo Malone website also makes the contents of the product clear: https://m.jomalone.co.uk/product/19609/43809/bath-body/shower-scrubs/lime-basil-mandarin-exfoliating-shower-gel

So no need to spoil the fun of the thread after all Wink

Gabilan · 08/11/2018 21:44

Microplastic beads are banned now. And to be fair to Jo Malone, as far as I can see they were using alternatives before the ban.
