Jennifer AnnistonOne of the worst offenders was a few years ago (probably more) when Jennifer Anniston did one. Halfway through she looks at the camera, rolls her eyes and says "now, here's the science". That was insult added to injury as the implication was that she didn't want that rubbish in the ad and neither did the shampoo company but that they had to indulge the scientists.
Is anyone here a shampoo scientist? Do you curl up in shame everytime you see one of these bits of rubbish?

I'm not a scientist, butI used to be a lorry driver, and I used to deliver regularly to the Lancôme factory a few years ago.
The shampoos, foam baths and so on were stored in rows of 1m³ vats, all slimy and leaky and smelling overpoweringly of perfume. They decant the stuff 200ml at a time into a bottle with a fancy label and flog it for 4 quid a go.
