Yes, Elemis products. Also skin lotion and bathtub/shower gel (although it's not really gel, per se; I just can't think of what to call it as my brain is rapdily disintegrating).

Sometimes you need to ask for more. It's been my experience that sometimes they miss noticing that you're out of something.

No cotton balls and no qtips ... but HAL also provides a shower cap, which I neglected to mention above.

If you pay up for a suite, you get cotton balls and Qtips for free.

We have been on various ships and some have had the q-tips -- some have had the cotton balls -- some have had both.

I guess that I am one of the few that does not like the shampoo and conditioner. It has a very strong smell, and one that I don't like. I always take my own. We have had both cotton balls and Q tips in the PS suites, but sometimes it is hit or miss in the other cabins.

I don't care for it either, Bev, I always bring my own Aveda shampoo and conditioner. But I do llllooooooooovvvvvveeee the soap...and the scent, too!

We've never had Q-Tips or cotton balls but I always bring our own.

In spite of all of these toiletries that will be in the cabin......it seems I have set out nearly an entire suitcase (at least it is a small one!) full of these miscellaneous kind of items. My list of things I "MIGHT" need in 67 days is pretty long!! Get a grip Karen.......MINIMIZE!!! LOL :rolleyes:

[Cruizer Bill]

THe Elemis products are the best we've ever seen! Ask your Cabin Steward for more when the run low.

Holy old threads batman! Reading through here it seems like such a simple time in 2009. No one twisting this into a rant about a change of soaps ruining the cruise line or how cotton balls aren't the same on a promenade without "proper views"
