omg its just dawned on me - first time camping (and therefore minging) with new boyfriend!

[chilisara]

ok in fairness hes seen me look rough before... but never without a shower for more than 24 hours....

argh been together nearly a year and this is the first time ive ever worried!!!

Ive never actually given too much of a shit at V before....... any great tips Ive been missing out on???

[Skizz]

Ooo should have waited for the year to pass really! Don't know what to tell ya, gonna have to grin and bear it methinks!

[chilisara]

just realised - hes obviously blind isnt he, I mean hes stuck around 10months through hangovers, tears etc and not been scared yet... tho camping really is a test isnt it :s.... how to be elegant and classy in a field.... not like I can take my killer heels

Dry shampoo, wet wipes, bit of vaseline on lips and a body spray/perfume (if it isn't glass..) that you know he likes. He's been with you for this long, you'll be fine

If you're really worried, just take some matching underwear, and he'll be right impressed. Job done.

if anyones hair turns into a grease ball like mine then dry shampoo and hats are life savers. If your really bothered make it look liek your showin effort take a bucket and soap so u can have a wash n that while he goes to get some breakfast theres no sayin u have to actually use it!

[chilisara]

never used that dry shampoo before - off to buy some today (you see we are going shopping for food and beer together but Im getting the girly things to create the illusion of beauty - without his knowing!!)

Hes not been to V before, its my 10th one I think... really would like to be cool and gorgeous all weekend.... should probably steer clear of red wine then......

I've got Batiste dry shampoo, it's a lifesaver (and smells nice too!) Just be careful not to use too much or else it turns your hair grey

There's 3 or 4 different.. flavours (?) so just have a sniff and see which one you like.

For Glasto this year I took a solar shower , bought some biodegradable shower gel/shampoo from Milelts and hey presto- bikini in field and job done - felt amazing, sold but brilliant and woke me up ready to start the day !

The water wasn't even luke warm, but thats no problem !

And tons of wet wipes and a nice body spray , and you're done

Have fun !

Are we really that predictable? Jheeezeeeee!!!

(That's not to say you weren't right by the way, loool)

[bekimo]

I assure you, he will smell far worse than you! Boys always do!!

[The Cat Burglar]

Your motto for the weekend...

If in doubt, get boobs out.

He won't care about anything else then. Trust me, I'm a pervert.

Femme fresh wipes for you and for him

[Flaminglippy]

has that line ever worked?

[Skizz]

This thread is so enlightening

[rhysieg]

ok i was thinking, if a female friend was going. after rocking the tent friday, wont you both have unclean bits the day after? what do you do to prevent that, wet wipes? although im not sure if wet wipes are usable on your parts as they contain stuff that may be harmful?

Trust me, blokes are well happy to see their girlfriend rough it for a few days, not being high maintenance. Nothing worse than waiting for someone to finish preening themselves before you can go watch a band!

[Tee_Jay]

BABY WIPES not those kleenex wet wipes your thinking of lol.

Baby wipes are not harmful! you use them on babies bums after all

[sjc0102]

Haha - reminded me of a girl-mate who mistook a deodorant wipe for a femme fresh and had a good ferrit about her flower with it! Oh - I can still hear the screaming now!

[dixie chicks]

Or you could always book in for the Vanity Van! It's a tenna to wash, dry and straighten your own hair, or something like £27 for them to do it for you.

I can't take the chance of dry shampoo, have to straighten my hair every day, so a hat for the Saturday and gonna wash and dry it on Sunday morning. Also take a bucket, kick him out of the tent, take some shower gel, warm the water on your stove and hey presto, all over wash in your tent!

A good body spary/moisturiser that comes in a plastic bottle (and doesn't smell cheap like Impulse or something) is Soap and Glory. It's the one in the cream bottle with pink writing, smells lovely and it's an all over moisturising spray.
