Thread: Shower gel... Recommendations

Evening all,

Not sure if this has been brought up before but if you could recommend a really good shower gel what would it be.

The best that i have found is Original Source - Teatree and Mint.... WOW it doesnt half make you feel alive. If you can get your hands on some its worth the money.

This is what it looks like:


If any of you gents can pass on your favourates ill see if i can get myself some for a try.

I use C.O. Bigelow shampoo/body wash. Most of the time I just lather up some Every Man Jack soap on a luffa.

I'm pretty much a bar soap guy, but I did have the Mitchell's Wool Fat body wash and it was outstanding.

I go back and forth between MWF and Paul Mitchell Tea Tree bars. Used with a loofa sponge thing works great! The PM has a minty tingle with the tea tree scent.

Nivea has a really nice loofa that has two different sides and doesn't cost much. Has been working very well for me for the past couple months.

So I thought - hey I am up for something new, my gels are almost done, so why not.

Amazon to the rescue!! Amazon UK. Only available in England it seems. Yeah ok, I guess I could go for it and after reading the reviews... I absolutely have too lol. OMG! The reviews are hilarious!!

Here is an example;

"Shower gel? it's just soap in a bottle, innit?

Well I suppose so, but the thing about this stuff is that it has Tea Tree oil in it. That stuff is /powerful/ and it's a bit like washing in Deep Heat. Now you may consider that to be the height of folly, and OSTT certaainly does induce startling sensations in your "down-below" areas, but by gum it wakes you up in the morning! It's certainly the most exciting thing you can do in the bathroom by yourself (well, nearly) and it'll send you to work with a rosy glow* and smelling like you'd just had a bath in toothpaste.

Love it!

* Literally and in places where you'd never considered a rosy glow to be a good thing."

I use gillette for day to day and CO Biglow when I go out.

Yardley is what I usually use as well. The oatmeal/almond is great, as is the English lavender.
