What's your desert island beauty product ?

Well ? What is your fave beauty prod of all time ?
Mine is a toss up between Clarins Gentle Facial Peeling mask (a fab exfoliator) or their Gommage Exfoliant Body Scrub.
TBH I don't really wear make up so binning my entire make up bag could be done without a flinch. The only things I would have to keep are my tweezers and eyelash curlers.

tinted moisturiser that could double as deodorant, mascara and skin revive....
CountessDracula · 07/04/2004 14:03
kiwi why would you need deo? a) would only be you and b)if you ponged just hop in the azure sea!!

Garnier's BodyTonic, smells yummy so would double as perfume, and some stuff in a yellow tube by Umberto Giannini that I used last summer -keeps your hair looking sleek and wet on the beach so as not to end up with flat, frizzy curls when you've been swimming- which presumably you'd do a lot on a desert island...
CountessDracula · 07/04/2004 14:11
Miriam2 can you tell me what that stuff is pls? I need it!!
Miriam2 · 07/04/2004 14:22
CD yes, I think they've repackaged it as it was in a yellow/ green tube last year and called something like Wet & sleek (?!- surely not)) but the description sounds the same. Look out for it in Boots as summer gets nearer cos they haven't had it in all winter.

How sad am I? If I was really only allowed one thing it would be...wait for it...baby wipes (have to be Johnsons) Cleasing and moisturising and no need for cotton wool.
