Very basic question

[whiterose]

Forgive me for asking such a basic questions but it's been 12 years since we sailed with HAL. Does the ship provide free toiletries such as shampoo and body lotion? Trying to restrict myself to one suitcase.

Yes.

The Elemis products include:

1.7 ounce bottle - Pure Shine Shampoo - infused with the aroma of Lime, Basil, and Grapefruit.

1.7 ounce bottle - Pro-Vitamin Conditioner - a citrus experience that replenishes with conditioning Vitamin B5 Panthenol.

1.7 ounce bottle - Sharp Shower and Bath Gel - an aroma-therapeutic blend of Mint, Charmonile, Wild Marjoram, Nettle and Thyme in a Mineral rich Sea Salt base.

1.7 ounce bottle of Vitamin Rich-Body Lotion - infused with Vitamin-rich Wheat Germ, Carrot and Sweet Almond Oil.

For the Face: Citrus Soap Slice - pure Glycerin soap is lightly infused with the aroma of Grapefruit, Basil, Clove and Lime.

For the Body: pure zest cleansing soap - infused with nature's own Lime, Clove Leaf, Lavender and Rosemary Extracts in Palm Oil.

On our recent Zuiderdam cruises -- Even though we don't use the Elemis shampoo and conditioner, I did notice that we had 2 different type of bottles. The bottles appear to be the same -- only the new ones are a clear plastic. But upon futher investigation I discovered that the new bottles are thicker and now contain only 1.4 fluid ounces instead of 1.7 fluid ounces.

Also the new zest cleansing bar soap is smaller -- 25 grams or 0.9 ounces.

I wasn't sure about citrus soap if it is smaller -- size is listed as 40 grams or 1.4 ounces.

Thanks for the very quick response. You guys are the greatest. The products sound very nice so I'll leave my regular stuff at home.

Happy New Year!

Ours were replaced as we used them as well.

A friend of ours had an alergic reaction to Elemis soap so those prone to alergies may want to stick with what they know. We have not had any issues with it, it is very nice.

We LOVE them. Think they are great products and our steward keep replacing everything as we use it up.

My DH takes a lot of medications and he has had problems with Elemis products -- especially the shampoo.

So we do carry our own shampoo and soaps.
