I have just discovered the secret to gorgeous, glowing, smooth, plumped up skin on my face.......

[FriedGreenTomatoes]

...and it is Waitrose Baby Bottom Butter!

I can't even remember what made me put it on my face one day but OMG - it is fab. I have been using it constantly for 2 weeks now and my skin now has the smoothest texture, which I don't think it's had since pre-pubescence. And it makes my foundation look super dewy and youthful too. It is SO much better than all the expensive face creams I have tried - including Creme de la Mer.

My skin has never been better since I stopped putting anything on it. I just have a hot shower every day and vigorously scrub with a natural sponge.

I no longer use foundation or blusher etc, just eye make up and lipstick.

Although I may feel differently when I start getting wrinkles

I recommend the new (I think it is new, new to me anyhoo) Tesco B-Natural range

I have a cleanser that is lovely, am going to investigate the other stuff tomorrow

mummypig, oliveoil doesn't solidify if you put it in the fridge

the reason the bottom butter is solid is because it's been hydrogenated

mummypig: trust me, you only need such a teeny amount per application of this that a tub of £2 cream will last almost forever. Honestly.

I opened my new tub last night, as we'd run out, and you cannot even see that i've used it yet, thats how little I use. I must just say, when I bought it in waitrose, I took the last one on the shelf, and had to chuckle and wonder if there are more MNetters living in Kingston than I thought

I don't have a Waitrose but Ocado deliver

but how much is delivery charge?

TraceyK - edinburgh has 2 waitrose

i bought some this morning (bottom butter) so i cant wait to use it!

is it fine for night cream and morning

i refuse to set foot inside a tesco

I think it might be too rich for night and day unless your skin is super dry. And no spf as hat says.

hmm yes no spf

i am going to try it for night - my skin is super-dry

Do we think maybe just for night then?

I keep forgetting to pinch it from DS's bath box. I must buy another one I think.

Don't have a waitrose. Will sudacreme do?

Rofl OrmIrian!

I bought some on Monday and have been using it on my feet. They seem alot better, haven't been brave enough to put it on my face yet though.

work upwards - try it on knees and elbows next

Going to try & get to Waitrose tomorrow or Sat......if there are any left I shall grab a few & do an overseas delivery for ex-pat MN-ers!!

(errr... not in person regrettably!!!)

Oooh, I have some of this hanging around. I'm not that keen on the smell but for glowing smooth skin, I could live with smelling like a cheap ice cream.

Actually you smell more like a Kinder Egg (well I say 'you', I mean 'me wearing bottom butter').

Have been using it for three days and my skin has improved a bit I think, BUT I have developed two spots. However, spent the weekend over-indulging so it might be down to that.

Waitrose in Esher was sold out today! The Kingston MN overspill, obv.

For sure

I've used it morning night the last few days and have to say, even though I was using it before, my skin is deffo looking better. My mum even said I looked really well today. which is saying something, as I had about 2 hours sleep last night!

I used to alternate it with clarins day cream, ( another cream i'd highly recommend btw ) mainly because that smells so lovely, and cost a bomb! I do really like the smell of botty butter though.

I have to stress here, you really only need such a small amount. I literally swipe my finger over the top with a tiny bit of pressure and use on cheeks, repeat motion again, and apply to forehead, and again for chin and so on...

Don't know if any of you tried the boots renewal balm or what ever it was called, that sold out in minutes and was on tv. Well, I think my skin feels like a slightly more moisturised version from when I used that.

You do feel it there for a good hour or so, though not a lot. I was able to put powder blusher on this morning, with out that over blushed sticking powder on effect you get if you apply too soon after cream, before it's dried IYSWIM?

Try Waitrose in H!rsh*m, mumsnut

oooh i use Body Shop body butter on my face at night, but i wouldnt use it in the day!
When i wake up my face is v smooth and soft, and it doesnt give me spots.

Well, if it makes me smell like a Kinder egg then I definately have to buy it.

Now, how do I persuade my Mum to go all the way to Edinburgh on the off chance that they still have a tub in stock, then post it to me?

LIke the code policywonk

Kindersurprise, could your mum not order it online for you with her shopping?

I looked up the website but they do not deliver to my parent's town.
