Old shampoo etc

[pathi]

I know that all of the ships have the new shower gel / shampoo dispensers, but is it possible to buy the old eucalyptus products somewhere on the ship?

No its gone.

I haven't seen if for a while. We did ask for it when we were on in July, and our steward just gave us a funny look.

Thanks Guys.

 

PS Tracie why do you have a picture of my dog as your avatar?? ;)

Someone should send the OP's post to Princess. I bet Princess could make some money selling that stuff in one of the shops. My wife would probably buy it rather than use that shampoo now provided.

I've seen people sell it on eBay. You might keep an eye out there and see if some turns up.

We have some old Princess eucalyptus shampoo that I found in a drawer a couple weeks ago - from at least 2 years ago. It doesn't last. Don't buy it on ebay!

 

I tried to use it (desperately wishing I was onboard, not freezing here! ) and it smelled more like petroleum than eucalyptus! :eek:

[TERESAh]

I had to bring my own as theirs has built in conditioner and I can't use conditioner

LOL. Good to know. I always have and will continue to bring my own shampoo, but it's good to share that info.

When I have to travel for work I stay at Holiday Inn Express (they are always willing to give me the state rate) and I'm quite happy with their shampoo and conditioner. Those products also work well for my wife so I tend to snag the bottles from the hotel and we use them when camping and when cruising. The bottles are small enough to pass TSA in an airport as well.

 

I'm allergic to most perfumes and the stuff from HIE isn't overpowering or nasty and doesn't cause me any problems. There's nothing quite like spending your entire day with a horrible headache due to not being able to get the smell of some stupid shampoo out of your hair.

 

Neither of us likes the new "pump" stuff Princess is providing. We've never liked it in hotels when we've encountered it either.

How's the body wash? I prefer my own shampoo but don't mind a different body wash.

We think all the new stuff is terrible.

I agree, I the new shampoo/conditioner is awful...lotion and body gel just as bad.

[dchinski]

I bring my own until I attain elite.

What do you get with Elite?

I don't get anything different then anyone else does. :confused:

Me too--especially the shampoo! My hair has never felt so bad as it did after using that stuff.

 

Bring your own conditioner, at least.

[LovetheSea]

I for one was thrilled to hear it. I am allergic to Eucalyptus. I could not use any of the products.

Elites are supposed to get the bathroom amenities that suites get--separate tubes of shampoo, conditioner, and body wash as well as an emory board, Q-tips and cotton balls, shower cap, eye gel mask, linen spray, and luffa scrubby mitt. Sometimes the items vary. On our back-to-back cruises, for instance, we had to switch cabins. Our first cabin steward did not give us any conditioner. I still had some from our hotel stay.

[Shelly97060]

just want to echo others... the new stuff is terrible. I pack my own from home now.

No separate shampoo or conditioner or body wash any more.

We just ask the cabin steward for extra bars of soap and use soap instead of the body wash.

the shampoo and conditioner you get is the same crap thats mounted onto the wall, just in an individual sized bottle :(

Our first 7 cruises were in Mini Suites and you got the Lotus Spa Eucalyptus shampoo, conditioner, body wash and lotion.

Cruise #8 We were in a balcony and I experienced for the first time what everyone was talking about mounted to the wall... not only is it horrible, you need to pump like 27 times to get any reasonable amount to wash with (I figured out how to un-mount it and squeeze it directly out of the bottle to get an acceptable amount to shower with)

Cruise #11 was back in a mini suite and left to the wall mount, very sad, but I thought they had just cut back for the mini suites :(

Cruise #10 was in a full suite and I was excited for the SUITE bathroom amenities.. everything was perfect except for the bottles of shampoo/body wash which was the blue gunk from the rest of the ship, just in TSA size bottles :( utter sadness

 

The good stuff is gone

[dchinski]

What do you get on cruise #16?
