Amenity kit?
I am flying GVA-DXB in J. Its a 6h35 hour long flight and lands at 23h00. Do I have any chance at all of receiving an amenity kit? Am asking as I have a 2h30 layover and would like to avoid carrying toiletries, toothbrush etc I wont need on the following flight when I will get an amenity kit. Has anyone ever got one on this leg? Many thanks in advance for your answers.

Toothbrush, comb, cologne etc are also available in the toilets in the a/c. Besides, you can get all of these at the DXB J Lounge which also has shower facilities.

As other have said razor, toothbrush comb are in the lavs. Hot towels during the flight, I'm sure you will be ok.

But no hand lotion on board. If you wash your hands frequently when you travel (as I do) they tend to get dry.
I was surprised that EK doesn't provision any hand lotion in the lavs - unlike every other carrier that I have flown in J.
A curious choice given EK's otherwise generous touches.

I'm surprised that EK doesn't give out amenity kits on this route....as EY offers wonderful kits in J and F, and usually charges lower prices than EK, at least on a O&D perspective...

BTW, just noticed on my last trip with EK (both on 777 and A380) that the Eau de Rochas lotion tubes are no longer there in the lavs. Anyone knows if they have been discontinued?

You should come off a flight with sufficient dental kits, hand towels (flannels to Aussies), shaving kits etc for the ensuing period until your next flight. Ditto, stock up in J/F lounge as well.
What is the etiquette when you are leaving the plane and someone has left their amenity kit?
