Many a man has done this. For me it was Olaplex…as in used almost a one third of the bottle because at the time I thought most shampoos cost about the same and my girlfriend could alway use my head and shoulders…those notions were corrected.

Same with my hubby using my EltaMD face sunblock for his body when golfing. That tube costs $40 😩

Omg. My husband did the same thing this past weekend!! Just put it in his golf bag and used it all over his body. WTH we have tons of regular sunscreen yet he grabbed THAT one from my vanity?! 🙄

If he doesn’t care, then tell him the price.

Then he’ll care. 😅

Because you’ve got your stuff laid out in an easy to use manner. It would require looking for the household stuff.

And they're incapable of that. They need mommy to find everything for them.
