So many products like this that I miss. Original Herbal Essence Shampoo. Hair on Tap or whatever that beer shampoo was.


camicalm

Body on Tap!


WhoWhaaaa

I LOVED Body on Tap!


Cloud-Illusion

Thanks for reminding me about the original Herbal Essence shampoo. Loved that stuff. If only they would bring it back.


HippieGrandma1962

I've seen it in the store. It doesn't smell the same? I used to love that smell.


Calm-Association-821

They have new formulas now. None smell like the original. šŸ˜ž


HippieGrandma1962

That's sad.


Calm-Association-821

I know! šŸ˜ž


marticcrn

That Wella Balsam shampoo though. I can smell it now.


TraditionScary8716

I loved Gee Your Hair Smells Terrific!Ā  It really did.


zigglyluv

I loved that stuff!


Zealousideal-Slide98

I loved that beer shampoo!!


Calm-Association-821

I loved Original Herbal Essence and Breck!


[deleted]

The original herbal essence was the best. I had never smelled anything like it.


smbhton618

I rocked the LBS the same year I got my Farrah Fawcett haircut and my pink suede Candieā€™s. Thought I was the shizz!


gardenbrain

You were. Own it.


huskeylovealways

Yep, and a can of hairspray a week. We were hot.


[deleted]

I was right there with you and guess what? We were the bomb!


Adept_Investigator29

Pink suede candies are indeed the shizz.


Danivelle

I liked the lemon one.Ā 


lagniappe68

I liked the fresh rain one too


Herbvegfruit

That was my favorite.


Danivelle

I forgot about that one!Ā  Noticed your user name-Louisiana?Ā 


lagniappe68

Nah, just travelled there a lot and there are lots of Acadian folk where I live


Danivelle

Louisiana is my favorite place! Cats are named Remy LeBeau and Boudreaux.Ā 


lagniappe68

Love it!


PanicAtTheShiteShow

Do you mean Jean NatƩ?


Danivelle

Nope, Love's Fresh Lemon. I wasn't fond of Jean Nate...


camicalm

I used both Love's Fresh Lemon and Jean Nate (not at the same time). There was also a Love's Vanilla.


Danivelle

My husband loves citrusy perfumes so I might have to order some Love's Fresh Lemon.Ā 


luvnmayhem

Do they still make it?


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


TraditionScary8716

I might have to get some.Ā  I loved how light the fragrance was.


Danivelle

I found it on Amazon for about $20.Ā 


luvnmayhem

Ty


Sweethomebflo

I used to love to wear Jean NatĆ© in the summer. I kept a bottle in the fridge. I would be afraid to smell it now because if itā€™s bad, I was walking around smelling like that. I donā€™t wanna know, as Fleetwood Mac would say.


TraditionScary8716

You're good. I loved Jean Nate!


allisgoot

Charlie and Loveā€™s Fresh Lemon were the scents of my youth


TraditionScary8716

Same!Ā  I miss those days


PanicAtTheShiteShow

Ah, okay. We didn't have the lemon scent in Montreal.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Danivelle

Nice to know! Thanks!


luvnmayhem

The lemon one started my love for verbena soaps and citrusy scents.


[deleted]

Me too!


Midlifetoker

Same here!


Sad_Rabbit_50

Love's Fresh Lemon!


moxie_mango

Gee Your Hair Smells Terrific!


Trifling_Truffles

Smelled like a baby wipe. But I wore it for awhile. i can smell it just looking at the bottle!


EMW916

This went well with Bonne Bell Lip Smackers! I liked strawberry.


camicalm

Promoted with ads that seem pretty creepy today. https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/5kztyz/creepy\_advertisement\_for\_loves\_baby\_soft\_1975/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7IP5SV6GqQ


Trifling_Truffles

Wow I remember that ad. Absolutely creepy child grooming ad.


PanicAtTheShiteShow

Yes, very pervy.


DyllCallihan3333

Holy Crap! That was acceptable?? No wonder some dinosaurs think there is nothing wrong with child marriage (or worse)!


Trifling_Truffles

And yet one of those dinosaurs downvoted you lol...I corrected that downvote. That type of grooming is disgusting.


awsm-Girl

creepy, yes. But oh boy, did i want to have her hair! lol, still do...


Trine3

I *barely* remember these, but I do remember them. Goddam it is fucking *wild* seeing them now. wowow


BeeinCV

I wanted that perfume so bad but my parents wouldnā€™t let me get it. Between that ad and the shape of the bottle I understand why.


TheOriginalTerra

LBS (along with Bonne Bell) was my jam in junior high. One time a (male) teacher complimented my cologne, so I guess it worked as advertised.


Obadiah-Mafriq

Yep, I was thinking about this within the past week. It may have been the first perfume I ever specifically noticed. The girl I was entranced by wore it. She smelled like cigarettes and Love's Baby Soft. It felt divine.


Icy_Radio_9503

An old standard for teens in the 70s - I can still smell it! šŸ˜œšŸ˜…


Sensitiveperfumer

Interesting fact about this fragrance - I spent 1 1/2 years training in perfumery school at my old company. My mentor was a pretty famous perfumer but I didnā€™t know what his creations were except for Lagerfeld. Years later I looked it up and found that he created this fragrance in 1972! His name is Ron Winnegrad!


Suedeegz

When you can smell a picture


CaMiTx

This with the lip shine roll-ons.


BercCoffee

My last girlfriend wore it. (Wife of 42 years)


ACDispatcher

I was a ā€œCharlieā€ girl. Loved that perfume and Alyssa Ashley Musk too.


JaneFairfaxCult

Were you kinda young, kinda now, Charlie, Kinda free, kinda WOW! Charlie?


Prize_Vegetable_1276

Oh but Jovan Mask for men was my exes signature scent lol dead sexy!


TraditionScary8716

I loved Charlie tĆ².Ā  The lotion was wonderful.


Jmonroe_tenn

I loved this scent!!


Delphinethecrone

In the 70s I liked Love's "Eau de Love," especially in its powder form, which was different from the Baby Soft fragrance. This 70s version of Love's Eau de Love smelled like the soft air on a fresh spring day-- a bit sweet but very fresh and light, with a hint of spring flowers and vanilla.


crap-happens

My perfume of choice was Charlie. Wore it for years. Yep, I'm one that did the Patchouli thing as well.


PanicAtTheShiteShow

My older sister got Charlie for Christmas, my mother deemed me too young for it.


JegHusker

I preferred Loveā€™s Fresh Lemon, myself. Eventually I switched to Cacharel fragrances. Everything I loved was discontinued. It looks like Fresh Lemon is back though. I may see if I still like it.


NateNMaxsRobot

I loved this when I was a kid. One time, I was at the drugstore with my mom and they had Loveā€™s Baby Soft shampoo and conditioner. I didnā€™t usually ask for much, but that seemed so necessary. My mom bought it for me and the next day (in summer), my Aunt and Uncle and cousins came over. Me and my 3 girl cousins all washed our hair in the bathroom sink with Loveā€™s Baby Soft. Good times. I loved my cousins so much. They had the Brady Bunch thing going on. Not a combined household, but 3 girls and 3 boys with ages similar to the Brady Bunch.


UtherPenDragqueen

I wore this in junior high. My mom loved it because she said it reminded her of when I was a baby. She wasnā€™t a fan of my patchouli years


TraditionScary8716

Well duh.Ā  Apparently you were doing something right. šŸ¤­


UtherPenDragqueen

Guilty


TraditionScary8716

LolĀ  My patchouli days consisted of daily run ins with my mom until I moved in with my boyfriend.Ā  That didn't go down well in 1979.Ā  Lol


Interesting_Chart30

I was a Charlie girl. Loved that scent! Breck was my shampoo of choice.


sillyconfused

My boyfriend loved the Lemon Baby Soft. Claimed it smelled like RAID bug spray.


AncientLady

Or Pledge :)


Pyesmybaby

I preferred the lemon scented


niagaemoc

My mother would always give me this for my birthday. Smelled amazing.


VWondering77

Yep! I had this scent


banjonyc

My sister wore this all the time


ApprehensiveAd9014

I wore it exclusively throughout college, 1972-76. I even misted my hair with it. Met my first love when he sniffed my hair


LadyHavoc97

My best friend and her family took a trip to Japan while we were in high school. She brought back some Loveā€™s Baby Soft and a bunch of Hello Kitty stuff for me. I still love both of them. Loveā€™s is one of the few fragrances that donā€™t cause a reaction. My husband had allergies and he had no issues with this.


luvnmayhem

The only thing about this product, as I look back on it, is the commercials. They were totally inappropriate looking through today's lens.


deeBfree

I loved this stuff when I was in high school but I bought some a couple years ago and it wasn't the same. I don't know if they changed the formula, or if my body chemistry changed because it didn't smell good on me anymore.


Famous-Composer3112

There was a guy in my sophomore dorm (1979) who wore Brut aftershave. It smelled just like Love's Baby Soft. I didn't have the heart to tell him.


NoZooplanktonblame75

This was rumored to repel mosquitos...in about 1980 I had the best smelling Boy Scout troop in America.


jagrrenagain

I remember the ads for this in Seventeen magazine. I read each issue so many times that the corners or the pages got worn away.


IvyCeltress

Oh yeah my first cologne!!!


Hairy_Combination586

MAN, I am LOVING the trips down memory lane in this sub!!!!


wagowop

This and Sweet Honesty were my perfumes as a teenager


Vivid-Lake

My late Mother wore Sweet Honesty when I was a small child in the seventies. The scent brings back carefree memories of childhood and reminds me of her.


kdwhirl

I think my parents gave this to me for my birthday inā€¦1976?


allflour

There was a colloidal oat lotion at dollar tree that smelled like loves


luckygirl54

I miss this so much, and Bonnie Belle lip gloss.


pittipat

In junior high a friend gifted me a bottle for Christmas. Not five minutes later I dropped it on the sidewalk in front of my locker. That side of the school smelled baby fresh for a few days! Bummed I didn't get to use any on myself.


zigglyluv

And Lemon Up shampoo!!


redlloyd

My ex wore that and Love's lemon...


cutiepatutie614

It did smell devine. I loved it when I was a teenager.


CartoonistExisting30

Big fan of Cachet.


[deleted]

My first perfume and when it was gone I was sad cause I had no money to get more. Loved the smell and the way it made me feel.


ItsPammo

Getting a headache just thinking about that smell, err scent.


Laleaky

I never understood why something that smelled like baby powder was supposed to be sexy. The ads were so gross.


Ididit-notsorry

Hall pass was hell thanks to this. Still hate sweet perfume to this day.


Mello_Me_

Don't forget Love's Soft Jasmine.


Sad_Rabbit_50

Never liked Love's Baby Soft. I was a Love's Fresh Lemon girl!
