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

...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.

Right I am in the Highlands so no Waitrose and nearest JL is 200 miles away and I want some (puts on puty face and stamps foot)

Does anyone fancy shipping some up for me I will pay. Please I am fluttering my eyelashes nicely.

bossybritches · 04/03/2008 21:18

Ineed I STILL haven't go to my local Waitrose whimper but I have a neighbour who works near there & I have her on a daily mission to track some down! I think I shall ask her to buy a shedload when she does find some in stock!!!

If you still want some when I get it I'll let you know &send it to you!

Ineedacleaner · 04/03/2008 21:36

ooh yes please thank you.

cheeryface · 05/03/2008 14:55

i hope this is gonna work
so funny this

i had had high hopes for that protect and perfect stuff but alas it didn't do me much good.

thanks for letting us in on your discovery

CorrieDale · 06/03/2008 08:57

Well, I've been using it for a few days and I swear there is a difference. And this despite being ferociously sleep-deprived.

I use it as a day cream (too idle/knackered to faff about with cream at night), and use it over Origin's Out Smart SPF 25 sunscreen, which is also lovely though more expensive.

You can also get the Bottom Butter from John Lewis, by the way.

BumperliciousNeedsaGlassofWine · 06/03/2008 11:37

Moomin and cheery packages are ready to go I will post them this arvo

www.ecobaby.co.uk/b_Natalia_6_.htm is this it? dont have a waitrose near me

pootleflump · 06/03/2008 19:25

My local waitrose didn't have any but it's a crappy city centre one so didn't hold out much hope anyway.

Dh has just gone into a large one in Salisbury and they told him it's been suspended but it will be back.

Mumsnut · 06/03/2008 19:42

At ten times the price.

This is doing great things for my decolletage which looks quite old because I always remember to put sunblock on my face, but often forget to put it on my chest when wearing a low neckline.

I've been putting a small amount in the palm of my hand for a few minutes to let it soften before applying because it was dragging my skin too much otherwise.

bossybritches · 06/03/2008 20:15

ooooh Bran that's a good tip!!

I have "creases" on my upper chest which I HATE! Mainly as I sleep with my hands/arms crossed & on my side so everything squishes up! I shall try it on that area too.

Please god let Waitrose in NeEwark have some in on Saturday!!!!

Seasider · 07/03/2008 10:22

I got some from Parkstone Dorset yesterday and told another Mum about it, she looked at me as if I was nuts, but the MN connection made me think I was not just some random nutter! Am using it on my poor sad dry little hands too and it is very nourishing!
Well done friedgreentomatoes! Even if it is buzz marketing!!

Moomin · 07/03/2008 10:32

oooo my tub from the lovely (dewy and young-looking) Bumper arrived this morning. I have layered some on my crepey bosom. Do I look like Kelly Brook yet?

SmartArse · 07/03/2008 10:35

I am ridiculously excited about my imminent Ocado delivery. I do hope it's not out of stock - it's the only reason I shopped at Waitrose this week!

Trust me - I have nothing to do with waitrose other than being a frequent shopper there. I only let people know because the results have been PHENOMENAL!

i recieved my baby butter this morning from bumperlicious. i haven't put any on my face yet as i've still got my makeup on but i have tried it on my hands.

my hands are dry and often crack in fact they look like old lady hands lol. after using this a few times today i have to say they are feeling a lot softer and i am impressed!

i'm hoping my face will be more radiant by morning too!

BumperliciousNeedsaGlassofWine · 07/03/2008 18:24

oooh, glad you both got it! it was about £4 in all. you can paypal me or send me a cheque

hazeyjane · 07/03/2008 20:05

I'm afraid it has bought me out in a rash . So if anyone wants a slightly used pot, I can send it to them, if they cover postage.

bossybritches · 08/03/2008 19:12

sob went to our Waitrose today & got all excited at what looked like a shelf full of pots of the stuff..........but it was only coconut massage cream in the same range!!!

I shall have to keep vigil & see if they EVER get any in!!!

pootleflump · 08/03/2008 19:31

hazyjane, I'd love your pot - I can't get the stuff anywhere. Will CAT you now.

andyrobo237 · 08/03/2008 21:56

I looked in my local waitrose today and it too had none but lots of the coconut massage stuff...... Is the world full of MN people!!

Moomin · 09/03/2008 21:28

BUmper - have paypalled you. Thank you HUGELY!

spicemonster · 09/03/2008 22:06

There were loads of pots a few weeks ago in my Waitrose and now there are none! They are probably wondering what on earth has happened

Lilymaid · 09/03/2008 22:09

I bought some yesterday in my local Waitrose - first time I'd seen it despite looking for it for a while.

abidabidoo · 10/03/2008 13:44

FriedGreen

Thank you so so so so so much!

I was ploughing on with my Revitalift despite the fact it made me look hideous because I have to have something on at my age , and it cost money (for me) and this is fab! Evened out my skin tone, slightly plumped it, even the scent doesn't make me sneeze, got rid of the angry patches.

I was surprised at how dp bought it without a murmur, and then realised he hadn't quite picked up it was for ME, not dd. He laughed like a drain when he understood and said he'd tell everyone at work !
