I've been comtemplating trying Jo Malone and Molton Brown products though I'm not sure if they're any good. They're rather pricey so I thought I would ask for some comments first |

Jo Malone bath products are lovely, expensive but they smell amazing. I've only tried a few samples of the skincare products. The Ginseng Day Moisturiser and the Vitamin E Cream. They were nice, quite rich but I don't think they are anything amazing. The serums look quite nice, but I think the body products in this ranger are more popular. Try to get some samples of the face products, they are usually qite generous if you go in and ask. |

The heavenly hirani shower wash from Molton Brown is just that - heavenly - and I have had a bottle of their eucalyptus for four months, so these are quite good value. I have never heard any rave reviews about the face products... |

Hi Lynn,
i'm a big fan of Jo Malone. I use the bath oil, shover gel, soaps, body cream, parfumes (grapefruit, lime-basil and nectarine blossom) and the candles. The last time in London i bought the vitamin e cream: it's very rich, but my skin loved it (though possibly too rich for summer). My friend (female) has a VERY sensitive skin and in usual able to use dermatological products from the pharmacy only but the JM products don't bother her skin. and the scents are amazing . . .
And though Molton Brown in nice (there is a very gentle milk-soap i like) but the products from JM are finer, more delicate. |

I love the soaps, they are like the L'Occitane soaps. I have tried some of the shower gels and Body Lotions and whilst they are quite nice I think they are expensive for what they are. Molton Brown always makes me think of one of the hotels at Manchester airport, it is a little dated on the inside and tries to up its image by having molton brown handwash in the toilets. |

I adore the Molton Brown heavenly gingerlily shower gel, and body cream. Gorgeous scent and although expensive, a little goes a very long way. However, it's the only one I'm really keen on, most of the others smell kind of odd to me . |

I tried my friends Molton Brown Eye rescue and Lip plumper. Must say I REALLY liked the products...and was about to purchase the Eye rescue (really nifty packaging, a pen-brush and you screw the pen and some product is released into the brush for application)...but 20£ for 3,5 ml seems waaaaaaaay over the top... |

Jo Malones fragrances are lovely and last a long time - IMHO worth the price |
