I had an appointment with my derm last week, and as my eczema is now pretty under control it was agreed that I could tentatively use some shower products although still no baths and to go back and advise of the outcome. I am sure my delight will seem silly but using shower gel is a treat for me, trying to wash with epaderm is like to trying to use a bar of lard.My news coincided with being sent EO Chocolate and Mint shower gel which uses key natural ingredients combined with certified organic ingredients. I was very happy for it to be the first shower gel I have used in years. It contains cocoa absolute, peppermint essential oil, olive wax and mango seed butter and it smells totally like after eight mints and seriously it is delish!
"EO's passion is the creation of the highest quality products that are natural, gentle, effective and cruelty free. EO products are based on essential oils which means they contain NO synthetic ingredients, NO artificial colours (the selected herbs colour the formulations naturally) or dyes or fragrances, NO parabens, NO synthetics, NO harsh chemicals. "
Sounds like the perfect shower gel to try for sensitive skin really doesn't it?
But the real treat is the smell, it is like the whole shower is scented by a giant after eight mint! The scent is heavenly and so delicious (not sickly in any way). The formula is a gel and considering its only £12.00 it comes in a massive 480 ml size so almost half a litre! It has a handy pump and I have been using two pumps on one of those net body ....sponge things to create a great lather. What I like about the packaging is that all bottles are recycled PET collected and re-cast into their signature blue bottles - minimising waste but it still doesn't look like a dodgy recycled bottle at all.
The brand EO is brand new to the UK and includes a line of bath salts and bubble baths (waaa I can't use them) more shower gels, soaps, body polishes and even some gorgeous sounding shampoos and conditioners so basically everything you need for a clean soft and buffed body and shiny hair. One products I really want to try is the EO Sweet Orange shampoo and conditioner which are £6.50 each.
EO can be purchased at a lovely website called http://www.forever-natural.co.uk/where they also sell lots of lovely natural brands such as Eco Lips Lipbalm so I would recommend having a look at the site if you like natural and organic products.

That sounds interesting lol! When I was in Asda a while back I saw N-Spa's range of bath and shower products and they did a chocolate one that smelt vile. This sounds really nice though :) xox
@Kim - oh I know Matt loves N-spa stuff and treacle moon stuff from tesco but I didn't want to use lots of harsh chemicals in case it just sets of my eczema again x
