DH always moans about the quantity of toiletries etc. I take with us on holiday.:o: As we are going to the US and everything is readily available I have decided to take a few sample sachets to tide us over and we will buy most things out there in Walmart.
So, could you please fill in the questionnaire for me? I would be very grateful if you could tell me which are your favourite brands of the following:

Shampoo:
Conditioner:
Shower gel:
Body lotion:
Non-bio washing liquid/powder:
Fabric conditioner:
Children's bath products:
Suncream:
Child-safe mosquito repellent:
Anything else fabulous that's worth mentioning!:

We never take toiletries over with us, always buy them there as they are alot cheaper and usually in bigger bottles.

Shampoo: Aussie Hair care range
Conditioner:
Shower gel: Dove
Body lotion: Johnsons 24hour
Non-bio washing liquid/powder: Tide
Fabric conditioner: Downy
Children's bath products: Anything that DD see's
Suncream: Coppertone
Child-safe mosquito repellent: We bought the stuff from the camping section in Walmart. It's a pump spray and does the job.

Forgot we buy the cinamon flavoured Colgate toothpaste too.

I will always now take my own non-bio washing tablets with me. I had a terrible itchy rash for nearly two weeks after washing my clothes with Tide.

I tend to buy whatever catches my eye at the time but agree with Michelle on the washing powder and conditioner (Tide and Downy).

I do love Suave shower gel which I bought a Walmart last year. It was dirt cheap and I think the frangrance I got was cocoa or something and it was lovely and great moisturising stuff.

Think I'm going to get the Aussie hair stuff when I'm out there next month - thanks for the tip! :)
