How to choose the best fragranced shower gel

What's one of the most important times of the day for you?

When it comes to getting ready for a busy time ahead or relaxing after a long day, is your bath and shower routine a significant part of the skin rituals on your self-care list? And, along with choosing maybe a coconut or passionfruit candle and the right skin and haircare products to create a luxe home spa feel, how do you find a scented bath and shower gel which will leave your skin smelling divine and feeling beautifully nourished?    

Bath & shower gels are mild surfactants used to clean your skin. They come with loads of different ingredients but they are all used in a similar way. So how do you choose the shower gel that will add a bit of luxury to your life and treat your skin with the care it deserves? Or make the perfect bath gift for someone you love?

We’re obviously going to tell you our Bath & Shower Gels are the best out there but we do genuinely believe that. The four vegan-friendly shower gels in our collection are each designed to offer something different with our unique phthalate-free fragrances made exclusively by one of the largest international perfume houses and all the benefits of natural oil, fruit and plant extracts.

Energising and invigorating, Rhythm & Reef Bath & Shower Gel harmonises fresh yuzu with sweet plum blossom, salt flower, blue tea, hydrating water musk and driftwood. One of our bestsellers, it's particularly popular with people looking for a different shower gel for men at times like Christmas and Father's Day.

Faraway beaches steeped in sunshine are the inspiration for Coral Beach Bath & Shower Gel. Sweet and musky guava blends with the fruity zest of mango and uplifting pineapple, all complemented by heady ylang-ylang and finishing notes of peaches and cream.  

Our modern take on a classic favourite, Coco & Cherimoya shower gel has a delicate shimmer like the gentlest moonlight. Tropical coconut and peachy cherimoya intermingle with citrusy bergamot, pink magnolia, vanilla orchid and tonka bean. 

Last but by no means least, our gold award-winning Paradise Found delicately glistens with golden sparkles, and mandarin, freesia and pear blossom are infused with jasmine, white floral facets of tuberose and a base of comforting gold amber and pink cedar.

There's nothing quite like a hot shower or a long bath with a fragrant candle nearby to help you relax and unwind and, at Guava & Gold, we believe that using a gently, scented shower gel that cleanses and hydrates takes that experience one step further. We hope this guide helps you choose your new favourite.
