Charlie, having a bottle of fragrant and indulgent shower gel at hand is hardly a "problem".
I am perfectly happy to grab any old bar of soap and scrub away. In my household, it is actually my husband who has a wide variety of bath products, all in stonking great bottles. He takes this oversized collection of toiletries whenever we travel. He's not happy with hotel soap and shampoo. Noooo.....he has to have his own foamy/fragranced/scrbby stuff. Last year he made the incredibly silly mistake of putting them into his carry on bag for a flight to CA, and of course he was stopped at security and had to be searched. I don't know WHAT he was thinking.
Many years ago, I worked in a major department store's cosmetics and fragrance department, most often for Clinique. The company held training sessions each year, and there we learned that they were bringing out a men's line. We also learned that all of the potions and lotions were EXACTLY THE SAME as those marketed to women. The only difference was in the packaging. The bottles were grey and stated on the label that they were "Clinique For Men".
PrimeTimer, try to remember that if you treat yourself well, you will be in a much better mindset in which you can treat your husband well and with a lighter, happier heart. You BOTH benefit when you have your luxurious catcuddle and indulgent shower!
