Shower & Bath > Shower Gel / Body Scrub Shower & Bath > 50 GBP and more

Advantages: Good to keep hands clean when out and about.
Disadvantages: None for me.

I am quite pinickety about using public toilets and touching handles and so on, so when travelling with my young niece, I was pleased that I had this in my bag in the hope that most of the germs picked up would be wiped away! - Price and Packaging - I bought this from Poundland, a 100ml bottle for £1. The bottle is small enough to fit in to a large style handbag, obviously not a tiny evening bag! It is a transparent plastic bottle with a blue ...

Advantages: Encourages handwashing.
Disadvantages: Can be a little expensive from supermarkets.

As with most of my reviews, the products that I end up reviewing were purchased solely for use of my darling children, this product is no different! The product I am reviewing was purchased as a novelty type of product to encourage my children to wash their hands. This unfortunately is due to the fact that there seems to be an epidemic of sorts going around my daughters school, and according to the chemist whom I purchased the threadworm tablets ...
...had sold out twice that week alone of the afore mentioned tablets! Anyway I digress. This product was recommended by the chemist as a way of encouraging my children, and any others that may visit my house, to wash their hands after visiting the toilet, before eating….etc. The product I will now review is "Palmolive splish splash splosh, berry cherry, instant foam hand wash" The packaging is the first eye catcher, children wise. The bottle is in ... Read review

Advantages: makes skin feel great, and smell even better
Disadvantages: don't think there are any

...like the fact that the soap comes with a pump, which not many shower creams do, which makes it easier to use (the moisturiser also comes in similar packaging). It also makes it easier to dispense, and not end up with more product on your hand than you need, (which ends up being wasted). I usually prefer clear shower gels rather than creamy shower creams, because I sometimes find these to greasy, but this isn't too greasy, its much more moisturising, ...
...right balance of softness, not too dry and not too greasy! Price wise, it was a pressie, but I think it's about £5 on the boots website. Does seem a lot for everyday use, but reasonable for a treat or special gift. Finally, the part of the product which in my opinion is the most fabulous....... THE SMELL! You didn't think I'd forgotten to mention the most importand part did you? The smell is not too strong and overpowering, but does have staying ... Read review

Advantages: fresh, vibrant awakeninng aroma, soft skin
Disadvantages: none for me

Lush are a company who produce and make a wide range of bath and body products; all of the ingredients used in their products are a combination of fresh organic fruit and vegetables, pure essential oils and safe synthetics. A lot of bath and body products on the market are tested on animals; but Lush are one of very few companies whom are dead against testing their products or ingredients on animals and this is the main reason why all of their products ...
...the products you buy from Lush have ever been tested on animals. Lush believe that the products they make are safe enough to be tested on a panel of human testers because of the safe and natural ingredients they use in them. All of the natural ingredients in the Lush products are also vegetarian and the products contain very little or no preservatives in them. I think that the way Lush manufacture, make and package their products is fantastic and ... Read review

Advantages: Smells divine, smoothes the skin and is half price.
Disadvantages: Limited edition so won't be around for long.

I have already sung the praises of two of the other products in this range but I have definitely saved the best till last! Out of the four products in the range I own three and this one is by far the best of the bunch! I also own the shower gel and body soufflé. These are also favourites of mine but this outshines them in scent. I use shower gloves, loofah, loofah mitts or bath lily's when I take a shower and so haven't been bothering to use a body ...
...and disappeared again in January. The Body Shop (TBS) brings out limited edition ranges all the time, it gives us all a chance to try something a little different and I am guessing that they then consider bringing them out as a main range depending on their popularity. At half price this tub costs £6.00 rather than the usual £12.00 for 200ml. This is good value because £12.00 is their standard price for body scrubs of this size. The tub has a screw ... Read review
