I don’t mind the B & H products and like any toiletry gift sets that are given to me. I am quite easy to please !
It’s not fair really to compare B & H gift sets with the likes of White Company/ Molton Brown when they cost £10 and the others more like £50 plus ! Not everyone can spend that kind of money.
We aren’t the ones comparing, they do it themselves when they designed the bottles etc.. to look like MB.
It’s not even the fact they’re cheap, the scents are barely there and they hardly foam. 2 fundamentals for decent bath / hand soap.

I like Molton Brown as well but I can’t afford to buy that every week.
I certainly don't buy them every week, in fact I have Pears soap and liquid soap in my main bathroom and M and S liquid soap in the shower room. I mostly buy Radox shower gels although I did treat myself to a MB when I went to their outlet shop. I usually get bought the pack of MB shower gels as part of a Christmas gift. I'm not a great one for spending a fortune on myself really.

I really don't mind B&H for every day use. Granted it's nothing special but it does the job. The barn we stayed at in the summer had Rituals toiletries. DS said he loved the shampoo for his waist length hair. He declined the offer to buy a bottle at £20 though as he'd go through it in no time.

Made in China therefore has to be tested on animals. On top of that it’s rubbish, dries out my skin and too strongly scented.

I’ll pass.

They seem to be a dupe of Molten Brown but a poor one.
Yes! We used to always have the hand soap at work (because it’s only £2 for a big one) but realised we all had horribly dry and itchy hands. Switched to something else and hey presto, no problems.

Interesting. Would you be able to point to your source for the China bit as they are stating.

I used to love Molton Brown but think it's now overpriced and not as good as it used to be. I like Method handwash.

Products made in China are only tested on animals if they are sold in China so they can be made in China for sale in other countries and not be tested on animals.

Actually it can be made in China and not tested on animals but it cannot be sold in China if it hasn't been tested on animals.
