I always find it difficult to pick up a shower gel that I am completely satisfied with. It may not smell good enough, lather up enough, leave me feeling fresh - there is always something wrong with it. I spotted this shower smoothie in the bathroom the other day and thought it would be worth a try, even if it just got added to my review list.

** Pampered Shower Smoothies **

As I found this in the bathroom, I'm not really sure what this range offers in availability price and choice. However, I am pretty sure that my mum got this quite cheap in Wilkos.

The smoothie that we have is advertised to be 'exfoliating and enerising' with a 'zingy blend of green tea, lemon grass and gingko'. Just from reading the descirption, I couldnt imagine how this would smell, but once lathered up there was a strong scent in the air which reminded me of tea tree.

** Packaging **

This shower smoothie is packaged in a clear, 250ml, squeezy tube. The smoothie itself is a pale green colour which gives the clear bottle this colour and a refreshing look. On the front of the bottle is a picture of the ingredients, again all green, and green writing describing the product. The packaging is very basic but looks smart and the green really grabs your attention.

Also, the squeezy tube is very easy to open and release the smoothie for application. All you have to do is simply flick the cap open and squeeze to release a generous amount, which can be done easily with one hand.

** Treat Yourself **

The main thing that I love about the smoothie is the fact that it has little beads in it to exfoliate your skin. This allows me to double this up as a face wash and removes all of my make up easily whilst still leaving my skin extremely soft.

Also, once the smoothie has been lathered up and applied to the skin, it feels extremely soft as if applying a cream, even when using a shower puff to wash. I adore the way this feels on my skin as it makes me feel like I am moisturising at the same time and as if I am only using natural products.

The scent of this also adds to it plus sides as it is extremely fresh and strong. The scent reminds me of a weaker tea tree oil, which is a favourite of mine anyway.

You really don't need a lot of this to wash because it lathers up so well and one small squeeze of the tube provides more than enough for one wash. I have been using this for 2 weeks now and am still less than 1/4 of the way through the bottle!

I honestly cannot see any downsides to this shower smoothie and will definately be stocking up!

Go on, treat your skin!
