Rituals: Foaming Shower Gel


It's with a heavy heart I retire this can of shower gel by Rituals to the recycle bin today after squeezing the last bit of life out of it this morning*sniff, sniff.* 

Just imagine for a minute your bathroom steaming up nicely in the warmth of your hot shower, well adding a small amount to the palm of your shower gloves before rubbing your hands together to lather up creates the most invigorating sensation. 

The gel puffs up instantly like shave foam and the heady scent of rosemary and eucalyptus transported me back to the heavenly steam rooms at the Thermae Bath Spa, even after you're done the scent lingers on in your bathroom for hours.

Other than the unique, spa-like smell I find it an all round good shower gel; the foam retains itself very well and you only really need an amount the size of a 10p piece to cleanse your whole body, so this 200ml can goes a long way, also a good companion for shaving.

Rituals Himalaya Clay

When emerging from the tube station this morning on perhaps the rainiest day of the century, my mood was lifted significantly with the free gift that comes courtesy of Stylist magazine. I have an uber brand Rituals body clay to test out, I'm a fan of Rituals already after using their shower gel so I'm looking forward to trying this.

The scent is Holy Basil and Black Pepper, which sounds like the flavour of a packet of crisps in a gasto pub rather than a beauty fragrance but the smell is very distinctive and could even be suitable for men.

I will be testing it out tonight on my décolletage and will let you know what I think!
