Scrummy !!!!

I absolutely adore these shower gels. I pretty much like to try a new shower gel each time I run out. (I repeat a couple of my favourites of course). These were a pleasant surprise, I have tried the Lime and the Vanilla Raspberry .... I bought these solely for the fact they smelt AMAZING ! I loved getting into the shower and lathering these wonderful smelling goodies on myself. They lathered nicely, I did feel like they poured quite quickly a bit more slippery so make sure your ready when your pour these out. They left me feeling clean and smelling great. They didnt leave my skin too dry and they didnt irritate me. I would definately recommend these and I go back and use these often.

Original Source Shower gel

Origional source shower gel can be found at most Countdown stores. It's easy to find at your supermarket in the body wash section.

Packaging comes in this triangular bottle that's easy to open and close. The bottle sits on itself. You get about 20o mls per bottle. I think it's quite small for $4.39 as you can easily get 400ml bottles in the same price bracket.

Consistency of this product is your normal body wash liquid. The one I chose was a Raspberry one. It was a pale pink colour.

Application of this product , I put a dollop of body wash on my body puff. I felt it didn't lather or foam very well. It had a milky texture to it. Smelled like Raspberries which I love scented products.

My results are mixed love this funky packaging. Just didn't lather on my bottle well which meant I had to use more product. Don't think I will be using this again any time soon.

My name is Colleen and I'm an addict!

After all the raving and excitement about these little guys hitting Countdown, I just had to get in and see what all the madness was about and boy am I glad I did!

I picked up the flavour vanilla and strawberry because I just felt eating it in the supermarket. Its package in a 250ml squeeze bottle and unmissable when you're in the supermarket. Just head to aisle you want to eat ;)

The gel is thick, creamy, oh so smooth and a tiny amount on a shower sponge really goes a long way. Just a tiny amount (one decent squeeze) will lather your entire body and then still some left over for round 2.

Now that its winter, I really neglect my skin with body lotions etc because jumping into the pjs with as few chills possible is the top priority. This gel has some lovely nourishing effects because my skin isnt screaming of dryness (not yet though) and I feel well pampered after using this shower gel. I'm not someone that is big into fruity smells and this gel just about ticks the "amazing smell" box for me because eventhough its an intense smell, its not overwhelming and sickly sweet like some gels can get.

The best and most important part of this gel? Your husband will stay clear of it in fear of smelling too girly! Yes! That means no sharing this gel for me and now it gets to last as long as I want to.

I definitely recommend this to people wanting try something with a more exotic flavour and not wanting to share bathroom treats with their partners ;)

Tips: Just 1 decent squeeze is all you need and you'll be lathered galore. You a shower sponge to a get an even spread of the gel.

Yum yum yum!

So, I picked up the Vanilla Milk and Raspberry scented bottle from the supermarket for ridiculously cheap when it was on sale. It sucked me in with it's insanely good smell.

Holy cranberries, it is the most delicious smell! It's so sweet - it kind of smells like raspberry white chocolate tastes...if that makes sense?

After using it for about a month now I've come to realise it smells TOO good, I need something a little less sweet smelling to wash my body with apparently. If it was say, a chapstick flavour, I imagine it'd be easier to handle long term.

Tips: Don't eat it, regardless of the temptation you may face!

Original Source Shower Gel

I got this at countdown on special for super cheap. I got Lime as I am obsessed with lime scents and this did not disappointing the smell is amazing lingers on my skin all day, lathers up really nicely with the use of a shower puff. It says 40 real zingy limes are packed into this bottle which is a little crazy to think and I doubt it to be honest. simple plastic packaging that sits well in the shower.Might not be for everyone my partner thinks it smells like Dettol and hates it. Cant wait to try more scents.

Original Source Shower Gel

Ive had the lime and the mint ones. I think this is such a strong lovely smelling wash thats unisex in my books. The smell lasts on the skin once out of the shower and dry which is always a problem for me with body washes. I brought mine on special from pak n save for $2.99! such a great price

Original Source Shower Gel

I got the vanilla and raspberry fragrance 250ml on special at countdown for $3. The scent reminds me a lot of the medicine i used to take when i was younger but i can not for the life of me remember the name! i could smell this stuff all day! i have only tried this fragrance and would be happy to buy the others to try them as well, this one bottle lasted around 2 months which i think is good value for my money. I really like the packaging tells you everything you need to know! love that it is packed with natural fragrance and that it is vegan! the lid you can twist so you can get the last of the product out which is handy. I found as it was a runny formula it wasn't very bubbly if you were to rub it all over your body with just your hand, so the best way i found to use it was to put a 50 cent amount on a puff as it was a lot easier to get it to go bubbly that way. The smell lasts on my skin for about 20 minutes then it goes away which is what i like as i like to wear perfume. I wouldn't pay full price, the only thing i didn't like is that it didn't bubble up enough for my liking but it defiantly lives up to the claims of leaving your skin soft and smelling sweet! I would recommend the scent vanilla and raspberry to everyone you wont regret smelling this great!

I learnt my lesson! :)

Whilst shopping at countdown last night, I was on the hunt for a new shower gel. I've never really stuck with the same product for longer than a month. I seen the special card on the top shelf, $3 for this shower gel I had never noticed before. I was interested in smelling it (as I do for everything!) So I reached and grabbed a pink one as I love the colour pink. I smelt it and OH MY GOSH, it was breath-taking. Never before have I smelt something so amazing! I couldn't wait to take it home and give it a try! This morning I had a shower, and the shower gel was amazing! I like how the lid is easy to pop open and close, and I love the design of the bottle altogether! The lather was abit less than what I expected, but I was still very impressed with the product! I don't think I could ever get over the smell, and how good I smell at the moment!

Lime soda stream dreams

I have seen these in my supermarkets for a while and I finally purchased the Lime one. I wouldn't normally choose Lime as I usually choose milky or Vanilla scents but I was feeling daring and chose this one. I absolutely adore the packaging, its a perfect size to fit in your hand and you get every last drop.

The first time I used this I couldn't believe what I was smelling, it made me go back in time to when I was a child and my mother used to make me Lime flavored soda stream drinks, it smells EXACTLY like that, every time I shower it reminds me of those wonderful memories, I am beyond excited to buy more of these body washes, there are 2 things I am sad about, once you hop out of the shower, the scent fades quickly and secondly it is not edible! But that wont be stopping me from this new body wash addiction.

Tips: I add a squeeze of this to my children's bath, it creates a bubbly deliciously smelling bath.
