I'm going away on a training course next week for a month - the first time I have been away from home for so long since having children!
I know I will be kept busy but i envisage at least having the luxury of a long hot shower without interruption EVERY SINGLE DAY.

Only I don't currently have any I particularly like, so please share your favourites old or new....

I like Sanctuary shower gels. Both original and the damask rose&lily one.
Proper £1 budget I love lmperial leather MarshmallowSmile

Tulips2019 · 10/06/2019 20:34

Waitrose own brand ginger & clementine shower wash. Smells like Christmas though so not a summer vibe!

Lamentations · 10/06/2019 20:35

Original Source, the mint one.

DanielRicciardosSmile · 10/06/2019 20:36

Superdrug do some lovely fruity scented shower gels and I think they're around £1 ish for a fair sized bottle.

Sparklesocks · 10/06/2019 20:37

I like the creamy original source ones

gassylady · 10/06/2019 20:37

Original source the lime one - so zingy and fresh

CurtainsOpen · 10/06/2019 20:37

Original Source, the mint one.

Came here to post exactly this. Tingly.

LaurieMarlow · 10/06/2019 20:38

Original source rhubarb and raspberry. May have been a special edition though.

Jemima232 · 10/06/2019 20:39

Nivea. And it's only a quid.

catsmother · 10/06/2019 20:39

Radox do one in a squeezy tube for about £2.50 I think when it's not on offer where the scent really lingers on the skin. Sorry, can't remember what it's called, but the green version is gorgeous.

Also Original Source water infusion in pineapple and lemon, smells great and can often be found on offer for a quid!

MotherWol · 10/06/2019 20:39

Weleda shower cream - the sea buckthorn one is a lovely sunny orange, and the rose one smells much more expensive than it is. Often on offer in Boots/Holland and Barrett.

DanielRicciardosSmile · 10/06/2019 20:40

This one is nice, as is the lime one and the raspberry one. Only 79p at the moment too.

Oh ... and Imperial Leather shower mousse in 'Unicorn'. It's like washing with a big raspberry marshmallow.

Cherrysoup · 10/06/2019 20:41

Any Natural Source variety.

fecketyfeck21 · 10/06/2019 20:41

wilko bath fruits i used it as shower gel and they smell gorgeous, i just want to drink them.

JeSuisPrest · 10/06/2019 20:42

Nivea sunshine. Its smells like holidays in a bottle.

IntegrityisDead · 10/06/2019 20:42

Thanks for these suggestions - I can see me having no room for anything else in my case...

Radox uplifting Grapefruit and Basil.

thinkingcapon · 10/06/2019 20:45

I know this doesn't answer your question but can I come too?! X

Potplant · 10/06/2019 20:45

I like the Imperial Leather foam burst ones. I don't buy them for home because last time one of the the DCs 'painted' the shower screen with it and it lasted less than a day.
When they're away with their dad it's my little luxury treat for myself.

LadyRannaldini · 10/06/2019 20:46

Molten Brown Black Pepper. As I'm apparently impossible to buy for I have loads of it that I've paid nothing for so don't know if that counts. If I'm buying I love Badedas, being of a certain age.

visitorthedog · 10/06/2019 20:46

If you get the mint one then don’t use it anywhere, ahem, sensitive...

FortyFacedFuckers · 10/06/2019 20:47

Love the original source, favourites are lemon, lime & the mint one!

CaptainPovey · 10/06/2019 20:50

Don't use gel. Proper soap is better - gel feels like slime to me

Lemon soap is gorgeous

iateallthecheesecake · 10/06/2019 20:50

Waitrose lime and basil. Can't get enough of it!
