If we had enough money, we’d make regular trips to the spa to get exotic, aromatic treatments like the ladies in the movies do. But since that dream ain’t coming true anytime soon, we’ve turned our shower time into somewhat a spa-like setting, by stocking our shelves with shower gels full of yummy ingredient lists.
We’re giving you our top picks of shower gels that are fresh and fragrant, and especially great for the summers.
With an ingredient list comprising mineral-rich brown and red algae blend, aloe vera, and Vitamin E, this shower gel smells the way the deep underwaters would {we imagine} and is gentle on the skin. The mild, clean fragrance leaves you feeling pretty fresh afterwards.
