This scrubby shower gel was so pleasant to use. It cleansed well, kept my skin soft, and lived up to the "balancing" claim. The scent is rich and woodsy, but also calming from the essential oils. The exfoliation comes from lemon peel and olive seed powder, which doesn't scrape the skin and is safe for the environment. For extra suds and a deeper clean, I'll apply this shower gel using bath gloves.
