Enchanted Whipped Body Wash

I haven't used a Dove product in a while, other then their deodorants. I feel like Dove is one of the better skin and body care brands at drugstores, but generally they cost a little more then I'd like to spend. A few weeks ago Target had a sale on Dove body washes and I purchased a bottle.

I purchased the Dove Sensitive Skin Nourishing Body Wash. It comes packaged in a white oval shaped bottle with a flip top lid. The writing on the bottle is green. The size I got is the 16-ounce size; they also have a 24-ounce size available. The reason I got the sensitive skin variety is because my skin has been peeling terribly from a recent sunburn, and during the first few days it was very painful.

This is a thick, creamy white body wash. I probably use a lot more then necessary to shower with. It squeezes out of the bottle easily and effortlessly onto my shower pouf. The bottle claims that this is an unscented product, but it does have that typical Dove scent-not a bad or overly strong scent. I can best describe it as a powdery scent. Its not my favorite, but I deal with it.

I love how this product lathers. It creates tons and tons of thick creamy lather. I also like that it doesn't have any sort of exfoliating pieces in it. It rinses off very easily and leaves my skin soft, smooth and clean, even a little moisturized as well.

I wish I purchased one of their newer body washes, as they come in some good scents. This one is a little boring, but still works very well.

I first stumbled across www.enchantedbath.co.uk when I joined the Lush forum at the end of last year. There was a lady selling her own homemade EU approved bath stuffs. I thought I'd give Enchanted a go and bought a few products, one being Enchanted whipped bodywash. Ordering was easy through the forum, and is now even easier that Enchanted has its own website.Sarah, the lady who runs it, kept me updated about my order throughout. I wasn't too sure what to expect, a liquid type bodywash like Dove was what I thought. I couldn't have been more wrong. The Bodywash came in a clear plastic tub and was a lovely mint green colour. When I took the lid of I was drawn in by the scent coming from the pot - it was so beautiful! I picked SubLime as it was a bestseller. The scent was absolutely gorgeous, like warm waffles and syrup, then I noticed the consistency of the cream. Not liquid at all, more a firm souffle feel to it. It had been reccommended to me to use as a shaving cream as well as an all over wash. The moisturising properties of the cream was unbelievable, I wasn't expecting it to be as moisturising as it was. Shaving was a breeze using Enchanted Bodywash, the razor glided over my legs very easily. I found taking a small amount of bodywash and putting it in a pouff was the best way to use it. It frothed up a dream and a little amount went a very long way. The scent was very nice too!

Once I had got out of the bath and dried off, there was a definate difference to my skin. It felt nourished, moisturised and extremely soft - almost like silk, there was no need at all to use a moisturiser. Since then I haven't looked back. Any product i use in the bath now comes from either Lush or Enchanted. At first I thought the prices were a little expensive, but having experienced Enchanted, i know the quality of the product is definatley worth that little extra more. It also lasts an age too with average use. The selling line for Enchanted is 'Im Enchanted.... Are You?' Well in answer to that yes, yes I am indeed!

Enchanted body washes are a completely different kind of body wash. They are solid rather than liquid, and have a fabulous air whipped texture. To use them, I simply scoop out a tiny piece of body wash, and squash it into a shower puff. I then rub the shower puff all over wet skin, and it creates a huge amount of lather. They are incredibly moisturising and leave my skin remarkably soft. They are also great for shaving my legs with.

A little goes a long way so a pot lasts me ages- a least a couple of months- so I think that at £7.50 for a 200g tub they are great value for money.

They are available in a huge range of delicious scents- everything from Warm Vanilla Sugar to Pear Drops- and are handmade to order.

The body wash can be ordered at www.enchantedbath.co.uk, and you can also check out the full scent list there- there really is a scent for everyone.
