I May Never Use Soap Again

in Body on 09/29/09

After getting sick of scrubbing the soap scum off my shower and tub, I decided I was ready to go back to using a shower gel. And what better to use than an all-natural formula from Russell Organics.

I decided to try their Organic Lavender Shower Gel, an organic-based, paraben-free skin treat.

From first use, this product surprised me. Since it’s a sulfate-free product, I prepared myself for a low lather, but it actually had a rich lather that helped me feel like I was getting completely clean–without making my skin feel the least bit dry.

It’s skin-soothing ability is due to its organic oils, like coconut, jojoba and olive oil. These instantly absorb so they don’t make your skin feel greasy, only soft and comfortable.

Of course, with a name like Lavender, it does indeed have a fresh, calming fragrance. Lavender essential oil and rosemary extract combine to soothe and comfort, which makes it a perfect bubble bath as well.

Another Russell Organics product that I’ve been using with my shower gel is a body scrub called Lemon Jojoba Body Polish. This creamy exfoliant uses Jojoba beads to gentle slough away dead skin cells while Shea Butter, Aloe Vera, and Safflower Seed Oil soften even the driest skin. With each use, my skin feels smoother and looks healthier. Not bad, since the skin on my body usually looks rough and dull. It also leaves my skin smelling as fresh as lemons.

Yes, I think I’ve found the perfect combination to clean and beautify the skin all over my body. I’m not sure if I’ll ever go back to that gross bar of soap. Not only does my body thank me, but my bathtub does too.
