Advantages: fantastic smell, engages all your senses (except possibly taste <g>)
Disadvantages: deciding which one you like best
Zingy? It's the only single word which sums up the Original Source range of products for me. You could of course add in a zillion other more familiar descriptions which together add up to this bath or shower experience...
Fruity, zesty, fresh, original, alive, energising, natural, enlivening.... you get the picture.
I was lucky enough a number of years ago before Original Source was even in the shops, to win a BIG box of this range. Lemon, Orange, Orange and Lime, Mint, Mint and Tea-Tree....it was all there and the kids and I soon discovered sensations and smells which activate the senses unlike any other range I've ever come across. Not only do they smell good, but they look good, are attractively and practically packaged and some even leave your skin tingling. Only sense I don't think they act on is taste, and I really wouldn't recommend trying although the smells would lead you to believe they're good enough to eat!
Price-wise I don't think I'd have tried the range unless I'd sampled it first, but having tried it, we're hooked. The prices aren't extortionate however and an average bottle of the stuff will probaby set you back about £2.70 and less if you can find it on special offer. thankfully all the major supermarkets as well as Boots seem to stock Original Source products now.
A useful idea for you to also try without paying out is to surf along to www.originalsource.co.uk and order a free sample. I've discovered a couple of new additions to the range now which I think are even better than some of the older ones.
The kids like Tea Tree and Mint Bath and Shower Gel as well as the shampoos from that part of the range. These are quite unlike anything we've ever come across and quite literally leave your skin tingling - a *very* strange sensation!
I am more of a fan of the orange based ones, which smell really citrussy and fresh, as if someone had squeezed fres
h fruit into them. The lemon and the lime are less convincing for me, and I personally think the lime smells artificial, but I guess it's all down to personal preferences in the end. A new discovery from the free website samples, lemon and tea-tree also seems promising as a future favourite.
Apparently this range is based on original recipes created by a renegade Australian woman who worked as a barber's assistant and healer in the outback. She ran away from her missionary parents and lived a life they would not have approved of. I doubt they ever got to try her lemon and tea-tree shower gel either!
Don't take my word for it on how unique and enjoyabble these products are - go surf along to www.original source.co.uk and get yourself that free sample now!
