I’m not sure that I’m going to get round to using this one as I was given a de stress roller ball last year and it’s still sitting on my dressing table unused. (I’d put it in full view to remind me to use it). I hope those of you who like this product can give me some tips for how to get the most out of it.
Back to the cost/value calculation. This retails for £22 bringing the total to £318.

Can you dismantle it and tip it into a bath?
I keep them in my work bag so easily accessible when I'm grumpy at work

notanicepersonapparently · 12/12/2022 08:32

@Lotsofpots Thanks. That’s a great idea.

EasterIssland · 12/12/2022 09:35

What is iit todays ?

notanicepersonapparently · 12/12/2022 10:13

It’s this . A roller ball to clear the mind.

TragicMuse · 12/12/2022 10:50

I tend to use beta-blockers when my mind gets fizzy!!

A stocking filler, I think.

Blossomtoes · 12/12/2022 13:08

Hmmmm. Maybe I expected too much.

Sameiam · 12/12/2022 13:25

I’ll avoid, some stuff in there poisonous to cats and one of my furry idiots tries to lick any skin he sees

bravelittletiger · 12/12/2022 14:42

God I hate roller balls. I don't see the point at all. They always seem to end up as freebies on planes or in gift packs and I've never actually used one.

I hope someone from Liberty reads this thread and takes a few tips for next year!

Desperate for more skincare - I absolutely love the Sunday Riley and Venn and the oil and even the candle. Everything else has been pretty disappointing. I'm still really looking forward to opening it each day but I've found most days I open the drawer I feel disappointed.

bravelittletiger · 12/12/2022 14:43

I should say I've never actually used a whole one..I've tried them before but been so underwhelmed. I think mine is being regifted too MIL as part of her crimbo present!

GodisaBC · 12/12/2022 16:08

I love the smell of this, wish it was a candle.

Agree. Beautiful smell, pointless product.

loving the venn and Sunday Riley. I quite like the Larry king hair product too and the lip balm while not exciting is excellent.
there are 13 more products so I’m going to stay positive!

R00tat00tt00t · 12/12/2022 20:36

I decided to have a bit of a pamper session tonight and did a short facial massage with the miracle oil. Quite surprised that I actually like the smell. I've also put some of the Sam McKnight balm through the mid lengths of my bleached hair before I blow dry it soon. First time for both products for me so let's wait and see if they're as good as some of the reviews!

supadupapupascupa · 12/12/2022 20:41

I love a rollerball. The clear mind one will go into my yoga bag and i with pop it on to meditate

WeAreBorg · 12/12/2022 21:07

This smells lovely. I need to be more mindful so maybe this will help. I would never have bought this in a million years so it’s quite nice to get something a bit random

Cinnamonandcoal · 12/12/2022 21:53

Mine doesn't work, the rollerball is in too far. Hopefully I can swap it.
These are quite nice but I have a couple already and never end up using them much.

Bessica · 12/12/2022 21:57

For those who don't like the rollerball I decanted one of these before into a travel atomiser and sprayed it like perfume. Much easier!

Orangeslemon · 12/12/2022 23:06

This is the first disappointing product for me. I absolutely love every other Aromatherapy Associates product I’ve tried but I’ve had a couple of the rollerballs before and I just can’t really smell them! I’m thinking maybe the trick is just to roll it for ages so loads of product comes out, or try and remove the rollerball completely as others have suggested. Would have been thrilled by anything else from AA.

Polpette · 13/12/2022 03:47

@Bessica how do you decant it without smashing the bottle? Any tips greatly appreciated. Such a good idea as I do like the roller balls but no matter how hard I try I can never get through one, they last for eons...which is probably a good thing but it does mean I have several of them sitting unused.

Talisin · 13/12/2022 05:35

I’ve not actually ever used this brand before - I like that this is especially for sensitive skin and may actually try this today.

imp2007 · 13/12/2022 06:25

Woke up early today and had a peek - used straight away - todays is a good one for me really happy!

TabithaTittlemouse · 13/12/2022 06:27

l love this brand! Not tried this yet but if it’s anything like their other products I know I’ll love it

countdowntonap · 13/12/2022 06:51

Today’s item is exactly the kind of thing I’ve been waiting for! 🙏

tellmewhentheLangshiplandscoz · 13/12/2022 07:40

Ahhh this is more like it Grin

EasterIssland · 13/12/2022 07:42
