I picked this one up together with the Biovalley Alpine Mint & Herbal shampoo<\/a>. While I rather enjoyed using the former for its fresh minty feel, I’m not very happy with this shower cream. Lucky it comes in a small size bottle.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n I wanted to try the Rosemary & Geranium Shower Cream at first, because it sounds lovely. However, I did not like how it smells. It did not smell of Geranium, or what I associate the smell of Geranium to be so I passed and went for Tea Tree instead.<\/p>\n This has a powdery scent with just a hint of the astringent Tea Tree Oil smell. Too little of a hint for me – I like the smell of Tea Tree Oil so I found the powder smell too overwhelming. What I cannot get over is the texture of this shower cream. It feels and looks like the glue my late gran used to cook up \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n I don’t know if you remember this, but when I was a kid, my granny used to make glue for me from starch. I think she’d cook up the starch till it becomes opaque and gummy. This is how the shower cream feels and looks.<\/p>\n When I squeeze it out of the bottle, if I let go before the dollop of cream falls into my palm, it all gets pulled back into the bottle. Provided me moments of fun initially until I got fed up with it.<\/p>\n
