The body shop earth lovers watermelon and eucalyptus shower gelOut of all my SLS free shower gels, this is by far my favourite one, simply because it smells amazing! I love the scent of watermelon, and have to admit, was a bit dubious about the eucalyptus, but the two work really well together.
The eucalyptus adds a slight herbal edge, and stops it from being sickly, but you still get that lovely fresh scent of the watermelon.Considering it's SLS free, it lathers up nicely with a shower puff, and although not particularly moisturising, it is very gentle on the skin and not at all drying.
Like their rainforest range of haircare, the shower gel is 100% biodegradable and free from sulphates and parabens.
Garnier intensive 7 day body lotion
If like me, you struggle to moisturise everyday, then this body lotion is definitely worth a try. It's a lightly scented, creamy lotion which sinks in quickly without any greasiness and leaves my skin feeling soft and smooth.
Whilst I don't think it's as effective as moisturising everyday, it does at least offer my skin some hydration and keeps dry patches and itchiness at bay when I don't have time to moisturise. You can probably get similar results from a body butter, but the advantage of this lotion is that it's a lot lighter and easier to apply.
Even without the 7 day claim, I think this is a good body lotion, and I would happily repurchase, especially as it only retails for £2.99.
Have you tried either of these 2 products? What do you use to keep your skin hydrated?

I am SO excited about the body lotion - moisturising every day is such a hassle!! xx

ReplyDeleteI've been trying to find a reason to use my Love Your Body Shop card, and now I have one! I like the idea of Eucalyptus and Watermelon.
ReplyDeleteThanks x
The body lotion sounds great - such a bargain too! I keep seeing it in Boots and am very tempted to try it out, especially after reading this :) x
ReplyDeleteyou have such a lovely blog, i'm definitely going to check a few of these out. i'm terrible when it comes to moisturising because i make the mistake of only doing it when i have dry skin when you should do it all the time.. xxxx

ReplyDeleteSkin Scrubs- You're welcome, it should be in stores soon, hope you like it x
ReplyDeleteLilyLipstick - It comes in a few other scents so definitely give it a go, hope you like it x
lilyfm - Aw thank you. Try switching to a SLS free shower gel, they're so much gentler on the skin. I can be quite bad at moisturising as well, especially when I'm busy! x
In Palace- Glad you like the look of them x
Vanity-Fashionista - They're meant to be out in March, so hopefully you'll see them in stores soon x
I have the cocoa butter one and it smells so yummy I wish I could eat it! x

ReplyDeleteI bought the FIG & ROSEMARY one yesterday and I can't believe how good it felt having a shower with that. Specially the whole thing which is earth friendly to your body and the environment. I felt clean with that shower gel. I just hope they make this into a permanent line later like they did with the LEMON line. Or else I'm gonna stock up lol.
ReplyDeleteLove your blog!! I'm following you now, please follow back ^_^.
