    Which one? They have different ones.

    I love their Light Blue (both for men and women).

    I'm looking for a gift so not sure they'd like the Body Shop one.

    I will give try it when I go shopping next, though. There is a Body Shop not too far away from here.

    It might dry your skin out, but it shouldn't cause any direct damage.

    As to the question of perfume, I hate the stuff! Worse of all when men wear feminine fragrances, gah, tacky.

    (Sorry, bloke invasion). Washing your feet in vinegar is standard practicve for those who choose to march long distnaces. Beware, it does harden the feet, which you might not want - unless you are planning on doing the Nijmegen Marches. Also when the feet get hot, it is....shall we say.....interesting. Like living next to a Burger bar!!

    The Nijmegen Marches I've never participated, but I've gone there to cheer a couple of times I have an uncle who has walked it a couple of times. I had never heard of that trick with the vinegar though... I do know about terpentine on the hands for rowers

    As for perfumes... no clue

    I'm late on the perfumes thing, but I like Cool Water for Women. I was also always a big fan of Elizabeth Arden's Sunflowers. The Body Shop used to carry an oil that I liked called Dewberry but they don't have it anymore and it makes me so mad. I like the perfumes that smell clean and light but I want to be able to smell the perfume. Oh, and Estee Lauder Pleasures is nice - it's almost too heavy but I like it. And one other one came to mind but I forgot. Oh yeah, and Chanel Chance and Coco - like those. They are too heavy for me personally but my coworker wears one of the Chanels (not No. 5 - I don't like that one) and it is awesome. She's also older than me so that might be part of it. I'm not a big fan of most heavy perfumes like White Diamonds.

    Burberry Brit!! It's my fav perfume. It's sweet without being really fake smelling.
    I'm weary with right-angles, abbreviated daylight,

    I missed the shopping cutoff, but I like Black by Kenneth Cole. It smells kinda weird, but nice. Works well as a signature scent:

The doctors didn't know if my eyes would ever heal."

    I recently bought the perfume 'Love, etc' from Body Shop, it smells really nice.
    Charms strike the sight, but merit wins the soul.

    Be the change you wish to see
