The Dogmother Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 This product by Waitrose is fabulous. Totally chemical-free, it is a superb moisturiser. I saw an article about it somewhere saying that it is the best moisturiser yet, and despite being designed for babies' botties, that many women are using it. After a couple of weeks being out of stock, I managed to get some on my Ocado delivery and it not only smells delicious but is the best body moisturiser yet... all for only £2.49!

Egluntyne Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 I have read about it too. You will start another stampede Claret if all the Omleteer try to buy it. Another forum "must have"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted May 30, 2008 Author Share Posted May 30, 2008 There's some in my bathroom, you can try it tomorrow! The scent is vanilla and it smells good enough to eat without being cloying. My skin is designed for the mediterranean heat and tends to dry out in British winters - this is superb. It has been out of stock on and off for a while so it's worth scouting around. Rosie has been using mine, so I went to add another jar to my next Ocado order.. the site says that it's in stock, but when I go to select it, the product comes up as out of stock I'll try again in a couple of days.

WitchHazel Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Thanks for the recommendation Clare, I've added some to my next order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted May 30, 2008 Author Share Posted May 30, 2008 I'd be interested to hear what you think. I've found that a little bit goes a long way - it spreads really easily as it warms up on your skin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egg Lou Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 I saw this article too.. but everywhere I have looked had sold out! Nice to hear it does actually work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theherd123 Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Thanks Clare - one to invest in before the Bean arrives and if i dont like it, it can go on Beans bum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Thanks Clare - Owen suffers with horrifically dry sky on his legs, and aqueous cream makes him itchy - a common side effect in children apparantly, so must try this, and share it round me, him and Squidger!

Cate in NZ Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 It was in stock in my local Waitrose today..... I bought 2 pots of it . Only intended to buy one but Immi was with me so I ended up buying one for her.... otherwise she'd have just helped herself to mine It smells heavenly, the texture initially feels a bit heavy and greasy but it goes on the skin like a dream and absorbs in really easily. So far I'm impressed. My Waitrose didn't have a lot left on the shelf, maybe half a dozen pots after I'd been shopping but it's within walking distance and I'm down there regularly, so if any of you who are miles away from Waitrose/ Ocado want me to pick up some for you I'll keep an eye out for when it's in stock .

gooner.girl Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Bought some a year ago. Was browsing in Waitrose trying to build up a box of presents for my sister who was expecting a baby and having smelt it bought two pots immediately - One for me to! Its good for dry skin - i use it on elbows and stuff etc! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted May 31, 2008 Author Share Posted May 31, 2008 Ooo, goodie *rubs hands together* there's one opening in Brackley too Lesley.. I want one in Banbury Where will the Stratford one be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hen Watch Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Sales on Waitrose Bottom Butter have far exceeded demand especially with the press write ups it has been receiving. http://www.waitrose.com/forum/default.aspx?g=posts&t=583 May be best to ring your local branch and ask them to reserve a jar for you when they next get some in.

Cinnamon Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Nice idea,but my 4 local Waitrose won't reserve any - its all first come,first served Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next to Woolworths, where Superdrug used to be - opposite M&S/BHS (same street as Next, New Look, Laura Ashley, Boots, W H Smith, ......... does that sound familiar? ......

The Dogmother Posted June 3, 2008 Author Share Posted June 3, 2008 Thanks Lesley, when did you say it opens? Fiona said that the brackly one opens this month where the co-op was/is (whereever that is) I tried to add some to my Ocado order last night but they are O/S again. I was going to add extra for Cinnamon, but none in stock. Unusual comment on that forum about it being gritty - I find it the opposite... creamy and silky. Egluntine tried some of mine when she visited at the weekend and loved the texture/smell. I put it on at night and it's still moist and silky in the morning, whereas regular body moisturisers have disappeared and I need to put more on in the morning.

Egluntyne Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Egluntine tried some of mine when she visited at the weekend and loved the texture/smell. I though it was lovely. It is on my shopping list for when I go to Waitrose later. I'll get a couple if they have it and then if anyone wants one.................

Egluntyne Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Sold out in Sheff! No wonder when you see how many are on Ebay, as Claret says. Will try to remember to look next time I go shoping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
