Well, some of you may not be aware of the brand ‘Original Source’ – well I don’t blame you; I was unaware of it before last year. But when I ran out of my Palmolive Shower Gel I really wanted to try something new. While on such a new shower gel hunt I heard of this awesome shower gel from a blog and ordered it online. And I am so happy I did. Original Source is a brand manufacturing Vegan skincare products and they sell very less outside UK.
Like most women I love Raspberry as well as Vanilla flavored stuff so when I got this in my hand the first thing I did was to check it’s fragrance. And I was so happy with it. Read on to know how I love it.
Price and Quantity.
I am quite happy with it. The Product retails for Rs 195 for 250 ml.
My Take:
Packaging of this Shower gel is quite unique; the shower gel bottle is made out of recyclable plastic which is sturdy enough for travel. The cap is a square flip top cap which closes properly and the bottle is kept upside down and its unique shape is quite cute. The packaging for me is another reason why I was so eager to try this. It has bold cute fonts used for the front. Even the instructions on the back are quite different from what you see every day.
The product is a pale pinkish in color and comes out smoothly. The consistency is not very runny and it lathers average. So those who love lots of lather will be disappointed with this one. The fragrance for me seems heavenly as if they have really squeezed raspberries and vanilla milk into this yummy bottle.
Well! You must have already guessed I love this Shower Crème. The smell may be too sweet or overwhelming for those with a sensitive nose but I love it. It’s the perfect treat for the body. But the fragrance stays for half an hour max after shower and fades quickly
.
But the shower gel cleans effectively and does not leave residues on the skin. It washes off completely and gives me a fresh and supple skin.
PROS:
- Cute packaging
- Affordable pricing
- Vegan product and recyclable packaging
- Smells heavenly
- Cleans effectively
- Does not leave behind residue over skin and washes off quickly
CONS:
- Availability
- Smell does not stay long enough
Rating: 4/5 (1 Deducted for availability and very less staying power of fragrance)
Do I Recommend?:
If you love Vanilla and Strawberry/Raspberry smells and do not possess a very sensitive nose then give this a try. It’s vegan and will make your shower time more fun.
Will I Repurchase?:
Yes, I will. also I have my eyes on the mint and tea tree one as well (I hear it gives a tingling sensation :P)
