The Body Shop Pink Grapefruit Shower Gel Review

Product Description
Get that beautiful body feeling refreshed and squeaky-clean with our foamy Pink Grapefruit Shower Gel. Now Vegan Society certified and made with 92% ingredients of natural origin including grapefruit extract and Community Fair Trade organic aloe vera from Mexico, our hardworking Shower Gel helps leave skin feeling soft. The sharp and sweet notes of this fragrance are like slicing a big, juicy grapefruit in half and leave you smelling citrusy.

I received a trio of shower gels from a friend during last Christmas and brought along the 60ml travel-friendly shower gel to my recent Royal Carribean Spectrum of the Seas cruise. My last product from the brand was The Body Shop Winter Jasmine Shower Gel.

Packaging, Scent and Texture 

The Body Shop Pink Grapefruit Shower Gel is housed in a 60ml clear plastic bottle with pretty illustrations of grapefruits. It has a flick-top cap for easy dispensing, however I found the cap to be pretty tight and was not easy to be "flick" open. The pink gel texture lathers well. 

How To Use
1. Lather up into a thick foam.
2. Slather all over damp skin.
3. Rinse.

Performance and Ingredients

I was glad to have brought this shower gel on my cruise. AM shower needs to help you wake up and go-go-go, and The Body Shop Pink Grapefruit Shower Gel indeed helps to wake up the senses with the zest and zing of pink grapefruit. 

Suitable for all skin types, it lathers up a treat, transforming from a light gel texture into a rich bubbly foam, leaving skin feeling soft, cleansed and refreshed.

I love the citrus scent with its zingy and refreshing aroma which was such a joy to breathe in during my morning showers on cruise and back home, however it contains Sodium Laureth Sulfate which can be drying for the long term. 

That said, you will be happy to know that the bottle is recyclable and made from 100% recycled plastic and that 92% ingredients comes from natural origin.

The key ingredients are....

Community Fair Trade Organic Aloe Vera : Ultra-gentle and soothing on skin, aloe vera is perfect for the sensitive skin range. It’s a naturally hardy plant.
