Philosophy TSV 15/7/21

I'd like to try it but I'm being good. I've loads of Herbae and MB Coastal and other perfumes from years ago. It looks good value though.

As a comparison, yesterday I bought a small bottle of Chanel Allure EDP and it cost me £62 (gift for friend). They did ask me if I wanted to buy the body lotion as well for another £49 (which I declined). I did get a gift bag and a ribbon though

There is NO N in bergamot, Jilly Halliday!

Do any of you still use the Purity cleanser, I’ve noticed there is an offer with a choice of different ones, I remember liking it years ago.

It always broke me out. No idea what ingredient it was? I used it broke my rosacea out stopped using face settled down and when I started using again same thing happened.

 

[MrMarple]

I agree with Donna to be honest Lynn. I did enjoy using it but it wasn't suitable for me as it seemed to break me out too.
Oh, and I've since found out that Philosophy test on animals, so even if it was my favourite product, I wouldn't use it now out of principle anyway.

No my skin has dried out over the years. it was ok when I was a wee bit younger but I personally need more comfort from a cleanser.

Craig keeps saying Bergamo. Is that how it is pronounced?

Like others who have commented, I had a problem with Purity. It gave me really bad itching on areas of my face, the only facial cleanser that has ever done that to me.

Thanks everyone I didn’t know they tested on animals, I’m always changing my cleansers at the moment I’m using The Inkey list oat cleansing balm

The new cleansing balm available in store from Aldi has the leaping bunny logo.

Ber Ga Mot , that is how I heard it pronounced by someone working for Guerlain

Citrus Bergamot mostly comes from Italy so I say it as they would, with all the letters pronounced. They do also grow it and use it a lot in the south of France, though, so Craig’s pronunciation with the silent T doesn’t bother me. It’s that N creeping in which winds me up! Alexis from l’Occitane has no excuse for saying “bergamont” (does she still - she used to??) and Jilly saying it constantly last night drove me up the wall. I was irritable, though - well, I probably often am! I’m off on one now!

As he sounds foreign, how do we know that it is the correct English pronunciation?

For example, if he is French, he would tell us to pronounce Paris as Paree.
