This is not my bathroom. Damn.

I love experimenting with new shower products. I have Monday to Sunday shower gels and creams, all of which I take turns to use. Yes, I’m spoiled like that 😛 What can I say, I like having a variety to choose from.

Here are a few of my current favourite showertime products. By current, I mean for the past 6 months. I wouldn’t exactly call them my all-time favourites, because new ones emerge every month, and whenever I’m shopping for groceries at Coles or Woolies, I hope to find something new. By the way, shower creams/gels aren’t beauty products. They’re *ahem* groceries, if you know what I mean 😛

Botanics of Australia Invigorating Body Wash with Desert Lime

You know what this smells like? Cola. I kid you not. It smells like you’re showering with Pepsi. I admit I don’t have a clue what desert lime is, but it sure smells bloody amazing. The first whiff of the product when you uncap it would be Cola. When it’s on the skin, it smells like lime and mint. It’s unusual, and it’s very refreshing in the mornings. Imma get me 2 more bottles of this!

L’occitane Amande Shower Oil

This is what I call my “luxe shower item”. It’s not something I use often, but something I save for days when I need that extra pampering and pick-me-up. The oil feels oh-so-luxurious on the skin, and emulsifies when in contact with water. Even though it’s a bath oil, it cleanses the skin well, and does not leave an oily, icky feeling. The almond oil leaves the skin soft and supple. Love!

Crabtree & Evelyn La Source Relaxing Body Wash

Again, like the body lotion, it’s either you like the scent or you don’t. If you do, you would love this marine-fragranced bath gel. Suffice to say, I’m a fan 😛

Cussons Imperial Leather Foamburst Foaming Shower Gel

This is a strange one, unlike most shower products I’ve used. It works exactly like shaving gel. You shake it, press the knob thingy, and it comes out as a thick gel. When you lather it with water, it transforms into this white bubbly mess, especially when you spread it on your skin. Just one squirt of the gel is enough to clean the whole body. I liked this so much, I bought the full set from Coles 😛

Dove Go Fresh Nourishing Body Wash in Pomegranate & Lemon Verbena Scent

I’m a big fan of Dove’s Go Fresh body wash range. They smell great, and they’re so cheap too (especially if you get it from Chemist Warehouse). A few months ago, I discovered the Pomegranate & Lemon Verbena Scent. I thought it smelled a tad strong in the shower, but what I like about it is the lingering scent on the skin AFTER the shower. Definitely check it out if you’re a fan of pomegranates 🙂

Crabtree & Evelyn Naturals Rejuvenating Creamy Body Wash in Mango & Grapefruit

I can’t believe I almost forgot to add this in. I bought my first tube of the Naturals Rejuvenating Creamy Body Wash in Mango & Grapefruit when Crabtree & Evelyn was having a 20% discount sale in store. It not only smells fantastic of fresh mangos, this has the best texture of cream washes I’ve encountered. It’s very creamy on the skin, making this my #2 luxe body wash. I’m about to finish my second tube, and cannot wait to get the third. I’m going to check out the factory outlet at Heatherton to see if I can get this in bulk. Oh yeah, it’s that good.

See, I really do need all these bottles and tubes of body wash, don’t I? 😛

Over to you. What’s your favourite showertime product?

PS: It might look as though some of these bottles are new, as though they’ve never been opened. All, except the Botanics of Australia Body Wash, are repurchased items.
