What I Say:
I recently reviewed the Allegra Rhodes Sweet Apple & Grapefruit Hand and Nail Cream, and absolutely love it because of
its beautiful fragrance, so I was so excited to also be trialling the Allegra
Rhodes Ocean Mist Body Wash.
Allegra Rhodes "believe that happiness and gorgeousness isn’t
reserved only for the special occasions or the rich and famous. Every woman
deserves to enjoy true luxury every day, at the tip of her fingers".
The Allegra Rhodes
products are made using hand-picked Eau de Parfum
based fragrances, which makes them smell outright divine. And on top, they are certified
parabens-free and sulphate-free. The company is Australian owned, the products
made in Australia, and of course not tested on animals!
The body wash comes in a stylish packaging
with a gorgeous monochrome black and
white pattern on the outer box. The box also has pale turquoise sides, which
represent this particular scent, while other scents available in the range (Red
Lychee, Sweet Apple & Grapefruit and Cherry Blossom) are represented by
other colours.
The actual body wash come in a simple but
stylish and stylish square bottle, with a black pump. The bottle has simple black
product labels, which I really love – ask me, and less is always more, and it
makes it look very classy and luxurious.
I also love that the Body Wash comes with a
pump (unfortunately that is very rare!), but it just makes it so much easier to
use in the shower when you have wet hands, and not to mention, it makes it
easier to get just the right amount of body wash needed.
The body wash is white pearlescent, and easily froths up into a nice soft foam – and even more so if a loofah is being used. The scent of the body wash is absolutely amazing, and no doubt coming from among others the zesty Lemon, Jasmine, and Rose extract used. It is fresh and luxurious, and very feminine too (which is a big bonus as then hubby won’t be using it and get it all to myself!!). But in saying that, I do prefer the scent of the Sweet Apple & Grapefruit, as it is simply more zesty and citrusy, which is favourite scent.
But still the Ocean Mist scent smells amazing, and as I use it in the shower it fills my bathroom with the most amazing scent, which lingers for a while, - even later when I return to the bathroom it still smells incredible, just a day spa! This scent also lingers on the skin, even after you’ve dried off after the shower, although nowhere near as strongly scented as the hand cream, but this scent can no doubt be built up to be more long-lasting and also stronger if the matching body lotion is used as well.
In spite of the body wash being perfumed, it doesn’t dry
out the skin – rather it is left soft and moisturised, although I still feel I
need to follow with a body moisturiser (which I always do, regardless of the body
wash I use!)
At $29.95 this is not a cheap body wash, but
as it is so luxurious and of such high quality, and you get a 450ml bottle, I
find it is well worth the price. It is the perfect treat for when you want to
spoil yourself! All in all, another fantastic product from Allegra Rhodes – if you
haven’t already tried some of the products, I highly recommend that you do, you
won’t be disappointed!
