I have a ton of body washes, but they all seem to be either the fruity kind (Pink Grapefruit is a favorite) or the sweet kind (Red Velvet Cake is fantastic). So Liz Earle's Energising Body Wash (it's British, so it's spelled with an "S"!) is kind of a departure for me. I should try to bust out more often because I'm totally loving it. The scent is really hard to describe - it's fresh, but it has also this sort of zing to it (for lack of a better word - I don't think I've ever used the word "zing" before, but it just seems perfect in this instance). The formula has Vitamin E and Damask Rose Water in it, plus a ton of essential oils - Eucalyptus, Geranium, Grapefruit, Peppermint, Petitgrain, Pine, Rosemary, Sweet Orange, and Patchouli. (And as a side note, Patchouli always reminds me of being in high school and going to Grateful Dead concerts, but the Energising Body Wash won't make you smell anything like a hippie who hasn't bathed in a week). It lathers up nicely and leaves my skin soft and smelling great, plus I really like that it doesn't dry my skin out at all, so I can skip the moisturizer if I'm feeling lazy (which happens a lot). All in all, just a great body wash that's currently perched in a place of honor in my (way) overcrowded shower.
