Product Review: Santaverde aloe vera shower gel

My main problem with 'natural' and organic shower gels is their tendency to smell floral rather than fresh - and the way that this doesn't always leave you feeling quite as squeaky clean as you'd hope to right after a wash. I don't like heavily 'herbal' scents either, and it's rare to find an organic gel that's free of such pungent aromas.

Fortunately, this is not a problem with Santaverde's aloe vera shower gel, which has a very definite 'fresh' scent; a lemony sharpness that gives the clean sensation you need from a shower. The gel itself is a thick lotion that lathers surprisingly well, and left my skin feeling refreshed and revitalised. I'd certainly choose this gel over the flowery ones I use only because I think they're good for my skin, and will feel happy in the knowledge that it's still made from body-hugging ingredients like aloe, almond oil and wheat protein, which are a great combination for dry skin.
