The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 18 July 2019 10 Comments

Method's Fresh Pineapple Gel Hand Wash (which I have never smelled, do comment if you have!) in a limited edition design by Cedric Johnson of Creative Growth ("...a non-profit arts center for adults with disabilities, continues to flourish and bring much-deserved recognition to this incredible community of artists. for our next chapter with Creative Growth, we’ve paired four new pieces of artwork with four new limited edition fragrances. we hope this art collection inspires you as much as the artists inspire us.") is $3.49.

Most of my lemmings are fleeting, but I am still thinking about that darned Cire Trudon Salta candle. I thought Kevin might buy it and tell me if it was good, but apparently he does not want to be the guinea pig either. So here is Keap's Grapefruit + Yuzu ("The zestiness of citrus fruit just ripe—winter lemons, grapefruits and yuzus—and the freshness of citrus leaves wafting from your hands as you crush them. Perfect for a room filled with optimism, or days in need of a happy glow. Pure, sustainable, simple, KEAP candles are made from natural, slow-burning coconut wax. KEAP candles are clean-burning, lead-free and use cotton wicks. Each glass tumbler is reusable and made in the USA. 50 Hour burn time") which does not sound the same but might scratch the same itch? $39.50 at Twisted Lily. (And the reason I was looking at Keap this morning is that I came across L'Officiel Nose: Stephen Tracy of Keap.)

The packaging grabbed me; not sure I'm entirely convinced by the description. Ted Baker Opulent Crush body wash: "Ted’s Opulent Crush Body Wash luxuriously blends modern musky base notes and white patchouli with dewy raspberry and pear for a celebration of sparkling citrus", £8.50 for 200 ml at Boots.

Tell us about the scented products in your bath or shower! How many scented shower gels and/or bar soaps are in your shower right now? And do tell us the names / products. If you have any great scented products in other categories (hair care?) tell us about those too.

Or, as always, just talk about something else…
