Palmolive Aroma Therapy Absolute Relax Shower Gel Review

Hi Girls!

How are you all doing?? Long, refreshing showers just take away all the stress of our hectic schedules: ) Don’t they? Given that, The product I would be describing today is Palmolive Absolute Relax Shower gel/Body wash that contains Ylang Ylang essential oil, Iris Extract and Lavender. In past, I have tried the variant with Rose Extracts and Orange one. Must mention, I was not happy with the Latter. :( The smell is pretty irritating (bitter)


Price and quantity:

Rs 125 for 250 m

 

My Take:

This shower gel comes in a see through plastic bottle which lets you see how much of the product is left. Also the beautiful colour of the product is quite appealing. The bottle comes with a flip-top. The cap closes tightly which makes it quite travel friendly. However, it adds some weight to your handbag :( but it is tolerable. The bottle is shaped somewhat like an hour glass to allow a firm grip in shower.

It is very light purple in colour and is of a ideally thick texture. Choice of fragrance varies from person to person. To me,the smell is mild, relaxing and appealing. It shouldn’t be an issue even for people with sensitive noses :)  However, your skin doesn’t retain the smell for much time.

The product lathers well and thoroughly cleanses my skin as good as a soap. It gets washed off completely so full marks in that department. You need to take sufficient amount of gel on your loofah.

PROS:

  • Lathers well
  • Cleanses well and leaves skin squeaky clean :)
  • Gets washed off completely
  • Combats body odour
  • Mild aroma which is relaxing
  • Affordable
  • Lots of variants :) for greedy people like me
  • Sturdy packing
  • Works well as a face wash in crisis
  • You can always layer up the frarance with a talc or perfume.

CONS:

  • Fragrance does not last for long time
  • A bit heavy to carry

 

Rating: 3/5

 

Would I Repurchase?:

Probably I won’t repurchase this again. I want to try the Thermal spa variant from the same range.

 

Do I Recommend?:

Yes. This body wash is definitely worth a shot :)
