It's finally happened to me, a favorite product of mine has been discontinued! What have you lost and have you managed to find a dupe. Mines is;

Chanel lipstick in charme
Soap & glory lipstick in the missing pink

I think I'm going to give MAC fabby a try as it looks similar.

Estee Lauder fruition made your skin look fabulous....discontinued, never to be seen again apart from the odd bottle on ebay

Body Shop vanilla body lotion
Flex conditioner

The Body Shop olive dry oil spray. Smelt absolutely divine. The shower gel smells the same - but that doesn't last.
Helmut Lang perfume. It's reissued now but over £100 in Libertys!!
Neutrogena Sesame body oil also used to smell amazing then they changed it to some generic but pleasant smell. Very disappointing.

I think Harrods still sell Clinique Wrappings if anyone wants to look!

Scootergrrrl · 14/05/2016 20:11

John Frieda Funky Chunky. Especially the clear bottle one which looked a bit purple!

A hair treatment from Lush called Arabian Bright. It was fantastic. Got disconned about 9-10 years ago and I still miss it! Actually get annoyed when I go in and look at all the other treatments which aren't half as good (for me, anyway) but are still there.

Doyouthinktheysaurus - Miss Dior Cherie is now just Miss Dior. They discontinued the Cherie name, but kept the formula.

If you have even a scrap of any makeup left, you can get copies made up by these people

www.alacartelondon.com/custom-blended-makeup.html

But the have such an extensive range, that you might find a standard colour or blend which works equally well.

God, Armani Sensi, that takes me back! I can totally smell it now. I was obsessed with it when I was about 16, thought it made me smell so grown up and sexy!

AllTheDwarves · 14/05/2016 20:51

Benefit Perfect 10 bronzer/highlighter. Cheekbones in a single sweep. Cannot find it anywhere Sad

TwuntingCat · 14/05/2016 21:52

No7 mascara, can't remember which one but it was a curling one in a red tube, it's been replaced by a red glittery one which is rubbish. Also astral light moisturiser, I searched for years for a really good moisturiser until my friend recommended astral light. I was amazed when I tried it and fell in love instantly, then a few months ago poof! Nowhere sells it anymore Sad

havalina1 · 14/05/2016 22:12

Redken Glass look serum. The best stuff ever made. One blob and my hair was detangled, not sticky, just made for perfect hair.

I've spent a small fortune trying alternatives. Just nothing is as good, not by miles :(

bluebump · 14/05/2016 22:17

Ralph Lauren Polo Sport for Women, it was my daytime perfume for years. I saw loads in a small airport in Spain a little while after it had been discontinued for €40 but thought I'd find it cheaper but never did.

It did also used to be John Freida's Bleach Blonde range but they've brought it back...shame I'm now a brunette!

slinkysaluki · 15/05/2016 05:44

Fendi Theorema perfume
Boots Botanics bb cream
Creamy nude lipstick by superdrug GOSH

slinkysaluki · 15/05/2016 05:56

Protelene deep hair conditioner, perfect for my thick course hair

adagio · 15/05/2016 06:03

Hugo boss pure purple perfume. I loved it.

Ledkr · 15/05/2016 07:05

Olay shower gel- used to feel as if you'd moisturised all over.

Garnier summer face

Not discontinued but my favourite no 7 eye shadow suddenly went SPARKLY Hmm

sandgrown · 15/05/2016 07:29

Azuree perfume by Estee Lauder .

Singbluesilver · 15/05/2016 07:43

By Terry eclat de rose tinted moisturiser. I was gutted when it was discontinued.
It was the best one I've ever used and still not found anything as good.

Heyheyheygoodbye · 15/05/2016 08:05

Loads by Lush:

Ginger perfume
So White shower gel
Twilight shower gel (which they still make in tiny bottles for the overpriced gift sets but not independently Hmm why???)
Freeze shower gel

I also hear that Guerlaiin Maxi Lash in Moka is being discontinued although I think you can still get it at the moment.

Mablethorpe · 15/05/2016 08:41

Dior Remember Me perfume. Was one of my favourites.

andadietcoke · 15/05/2016 08:44

Kerastase Oleo-Slim range. I miss it already.

Housewife2010 · 15/05/2016 08:47

Bobbi Brown Ruby Stain lipstick as worn by Carolyn Bessette Kennedy and me.
