EO Chocolate and Mint Shower Gel

I had to be restrained from the shower when this lovely shower gel arrived for review a few days ago. After all, leaping into the bathroom when the in-laws are due is just plain rude isn't it? Or so the Mister explained whilst he was pulling me away from the bathroom. I tried to explain the importance of testing out a chocolate mint shower gel, and even gave him a demonstration of the mouthwatering smell, but he just looked at me like I was a sandwich short of a picnic, so I gave up on that one... I just set my alarm clock for early the next day so I could shower freely. As you do.

Now previous experiences with minty shower gels left me feeling a little bit too tingly - ever tried Original Formula Tea Tree and Mint shower gel? You'll know what I mean. But I'm pleased to say this gel did not have the same effect - the minty stimulation was purely scent based and very pleasant indeed. The chocolatey scent is lovely too - the shower gel is sweet but not too sickening, and the scent does not linger on the skin after showering either - as much as I love mint chocolate, I don't want to spend the day smelling like a mint Aero, and attracting every flying insect withing a five mile radius... I also love the size of the gel - you get a huge 480mls for £12 (To put this in context a 250ml bottle of shower gel from The Body Shop is £6). It comes in a pump dispenser too, which is always best in the shower IMO.

On another note, the eco and natural credential of this shower gel are also impressive - the scents are from pure natural oils, and there are no chemical nasties in the gel either;
