You did not imagine it. Aesop Post Poo drops £20.... literally flushing money down the toilet
oh God, I really fear after the La Mer lip balm confession, that this might be the tipping point & you ban me... I love those Aesop post poo drops!
They somehow magically make my son’s tit stench disappear. Mind you, me being a skidmark myself, it might be that I’m immune.
I don't have them but do think the poo drops sound like a good idea.
I think the value of the poo drops very much depends on who you live with 
I reckon the same principle works if you just put a drop of essential oil in the toilet pre-poo. Or a spritz if least fave perfume.
damnit I’ve given away the twop twips from my first very exclusive beauty column.

I seriously considered buying them for my husband after she recommended them tbh ... No judgement from me !!.. I think a confession of all the things we have bought following Sali’s recommendations .... good and bad :Actually purchased (key highlights)
Scamp and Dude bag (I do like it for travelling though and some money did go to charity)
Dr Dennis Gross Peel pads (much prefer paulas choice bha 2% )
Bobbi brown cream shadow stick - ok but a bit wet and the By Terry Caviar sticks are far superior
The Bobbi Brown powder she invented
CT eyeliner pencil in Audrey - this is very good
A random towel for your head that miraculously is supposed to dry your hair in 5 mins
Suqqu Foundation - really ‘did not get on with it’
Nivea in shower body cream - makes the shower tray like a death trap it’s so slippy
Both her beauty books
Nearly bought:
Post poo drops
Ssssshower Cap
Surrat dew drop Foundation
Most CT recommendations - is it me or does everyone think it’s massively overpriced and a bit rubbish in general (for the price)
I’m sure there’s more.
Aha I was waiting for the first Avon bomb to drop. Aaaand there it was. A friend recommended it too. How handy.
Btw she totally stole that nude lipstick/nipple thing from a thread someone else started on GtL recently. They wrote about it in a far funnier way though - about how embarrassing it was when they checked their nipple colour at the makeup counter in Boots.

I started testing various concoctions of essential oils for the stench tooI think the value of the poo drops very much depends on who you live with

Me tooEurgghh the last sentence of her column has left me feeling very queasy
I absolutely do not get what is journalistic about the line ' I’ve never topless sunbathed in my life, and my chest shares a Dulux paint chart with blue. ' even as part of a discourse on what 'people' think the colour of a nude lip should be. It's part of a constant narrative in her online wittering to have an entirely constructed self-awareness of 'oh, I'm so afflicted but I'm so lighhearted about my own problems'.Eurgghh the last sentence of her column has left me feeling very queasy
What if someone has a blue heart condition, hey Sali? You just offended the crap out of them. Actual babies actually die of that. Not so woke now
eh?

As she never hesitates to remind us, she’s Brighton and/or Wales. Don’t foist her on us Londoners!The wanky London version of a basic witch
I bought the Aesop Post-Poo drops for someone once, they’re actually quite good
I had to work hard to resist the new velvet range, EL's video about all the undertones was dreamy to watch
I browsed the gazillion clinique ones a few times, I doubt clinique staff would be much help. (The last time I went clinique the sales woman told me I had to keep buying their serum or my scars would come back) I trust EL online more than clinique irl, although I like lipstick packaging where you can see the colour, instead of having to read it at the bottom
Genuine question, as I apparently still don't know basic things: Isn't there a difference between "my lips but better" and a "nude" lipstick? I thought nude lipsticks are lighter than your own lip colour and the 1-2 shades darker is the MLBB?
Another question: Is she getting payed per cringe instead of word?

Only one reply to the Guardian’s twitter post for SH’s column this week...
Me too. And being on this forum has helped me to be more mindful/restrained about my spending on products.
Morning skiddy beef faced "mentals" or whatever the hell we are today.
I'm afraid I succumbed and pre-ordered one of the LE lipsticks. I am not ashamed!
I was starting to feel more sympathetic to SH but the nasty ablist language, comments about people's appearance and frankly creepy stalking behaviour have put the kibosh on that.
Also, I like men with big noses. Dunno why, just do!
