If I could, I would try almost every beauty product on the market, but since I , like most people, have very little disposable income; well, you get it.

Given that, every once in a while I like to explore products that are not $100.00 for a sample size.  Right now I am obsessed with shower gels.  This is what you will find in my shower now.

fresh Citron de Vigne Shower Gel

What it is:

A refreshing, foaming gel with vitamins C and E that gently cleanses and invigorates the skin.

What it does:
This Bath & Shower Gel contains moisturizing shea butter to nourish dry skin and antioxidant-rich vitamins to soothe and soften. It is infused with an effervescent citrus scent inspired by France’s Champagne region.

What it is formulated WITHOUT:
– Parabens
– Sulfates
– Synthetic Dyes
– Phthalates
– GMOs
– Triclosan

The smell is very subtle, not sweet or perfume-y, and does exactly what it says.  Sephora, 10 oz for $18.50.

Korres Basil Lemon Shower Gel

What it is:

A creamy foam shower gel with hydrating ingredients.

What it does:
These beautifully scented, creamy shower gels provide a moisturizing effect and help maintain the natural moisture level of the skin. They contain emollients and humectants that provide a lasting moisturizing effect and help to maintain the natural moisture level of the skin.

There is nothing that does not taste or smell good with basil and lemon, so to be able to shower with this scent is just perfect.  Your skin will feel moisturized and the scent does not linger, so there is no interfering with your trade mark perfume.   Sephora, 13.53 oz for $19.50.

Shikai Shower Gel

These shower gels moisturize as they clean so your skin feels soft and smooth all day. The exclusive formulas combine natural colloidal oatmeal, rich emollients and gentle cleansers.

Nubian Heritage Coconut & Papaya Shower Gel

Coconut & Papaya Body WashSweet-scented and nutrient-rich, the Nubian Heritage Coconut & Papaya Collection pays homage to the bounty of natural tropical ingredients. The coconut palm has touched all aspects of daily life for millions of tropical communities. Since the 1st Century B.C., the coconut tree has provided shelter, transportation and, more importantly, food. Coconut Oil, high in vitamins, minerals and fatty acids, is an excellent skin softener and protector. Papaya contains papain, a naturally occurring enzyme, used for centuries to gently dissolve dead skin cells, loosen pore blockage and stimulate circulation.Benefits: Antioxidant-rich Coconut Oil is easily absorbed into the skin to protect the skin against damage by preventing free radical formation. Coconut Oil also strengthens connective tissues to prevent sagging, wrinkles and blemishes, and helps reduce skin inflammation. Papaya enzyme exfoliates, stimulates circulation and firms skin. Shea Butter and anti-inflammatory Comfrey Root extract promote healing.Usage: all skin typesNatural Aroma: sweet, tropical.  Soap free.

Anything with coconut is just good for you and, again, the smell is amazing and does not linger. Whole Foods, 13 oz for $10.99.

Bagno Di Vita

A fresh, revitalizing, foaming bath and shower gel. Gently frees deep-down impurities while moisturizing skin helps create a more even textured appearance.
What it does
  • Natural botanicals of thyme, comfrey, chamomile and cornflower help soften and condition the skin
  • Hazel, Sweet Almond, and Olive Oils offer an aromatherapeutic bathing experience
  • Formulated with our Acqua di Vita® Complex, which provides intense hydration
How to Use
  • Use daily in shower or bath.
  • Apply all over body with hands, sponge, or washcloth.
  • As a special treatment: Pour under tap to create a rich, foaming bubble bath to de-stress and relax.

This is a little pricey, but once in a while I do indulge as this product smells like you are at a spa and being pampered. Borghese, 16 oz for $33.50.

Give one or all a try, variety is a good thing.
