Lush Kitchen: Avoshower Shower Gel Review

As the Avobath scent is one of the first scents that really got me into Lush, when I saw that the shower gel version was in the Kitchen, I just had to pick it up and I'm so happy I did.

First of all, the colour of the shower gel is amazing! It is a bright green colour with silver lustre in it; just like Avobath bath bomb and it reminds me of how the water looks once the bath bomb has fizzes away.

The consistency is also very thick which makes it go a long way, it reminds me of the thickness of Black Pearl shower gel and Prince Charming shower cream (2016). I personally find that with thicker shower gels, they seem to last longer, like Plum Rain shower gel and I seem to get a lot more use out of them.

In terms of it's lather, it's more creamy rather than most other shower gels, rather than bubbly. When you wash it off your body, it leaves you feeling cleansed and fresh but moisturised at the same time.

Avoshower contains fine sea salt, lemongrass infusion and oil, organic avocado oil and rosewood oil. All these are amazing, brightening and moisturising for the skin. Fine sea salt is great for the skin as it cleanses and brightens the skin. It helps the circulation of the blood in the body and is used in many of Lush's products such as Ocean Salt face and body scrub.

Lemongrass infusion and oils are antiseptic and great for cleansing the skin. It has also been used for centuries as an insect repellent. It is also uplifting and can be used to help brighten your mood and toning the skin.

Organic avocado oil is great to help protecting the skin of UV rays. It also contains many vitamins that are great for the skin; A, B, C and E. Avocado oil is also full of fatty acids which are great for conditioning the skin.

I wanted this shower gel for so long before I got it, yet every time I went to purchase it, they'd sold out. But after months of trying to get it, I finally managed to purchase it. When I first sniffed it, I found it smelt a lot stronger than the bath bomb. The shower gel doesn't have the powdery scent that the bath bomb does, which I do enjoy, but I do enjoy the slight difference of the scent. The only other difference is how long the smell sticks around; the shower gel stays with you throughout the day unlike the bath bomb, but that is probably due to applying shower gel to the skin directly as opposed to just sitting in it.

This product is perfect for all year round; the moisturising aspect will keep dry skin moisturised in the winter months and will help skin in the summer months by moisturising and soothing sun burnt skin. The scent is also awakening which is great for morning, especially those winter mornings when you don't want to move from bed.

I would highly recommend this product to everyone! If you manage to get your hands on a bottle, I'm sure you'll love it!
