Botanic Hearth Bulgarian Lavender & Ylang Ylang Body Wash | Shower Gel | 16 Fl Oz With Vitamin E, Sage Leaf Extracts | Calming & Relaxing | Sulphate & Paraben Free

This body wash has a delicate pearlescent creaminess with an opaque, silky texture and a soft lavender hue, which makes it feel inviting even before use. The fragrance is calming yet subtly uplifting, with a gentle blend of herbal and floral notes that feel natural and soothing, helping to ease away the stresses of the day. The pump mechanism works smoothly, with no sticking or fuss, making it easy to dispense just the right amount. The body wash itself feels light and silky during application, creating a soft, creamy lather that feels comforting on the skin. Unlike overly foamy alternatives, the lather has a luxurious density, offering quite pleasant cleansing experience. It rinses away easily, leaving no residue or unpleasant slippery or sticky sensation. I experienced no irritation while using it, and what I appreciate most is that it leaves my skin feeling soft and cared for, rather than stripped of its natural oils. In terms of cleansing, it is effective without feeling harsh—something my dry and sensitive skin does value. It also offers gentle exfoliation, helping to smooth and brighten the skin by removing dead skin cells without being abrasive. That said, daily use of even a mild exfoliating wash feels too much for my skin, so I find using this twice a week works perfectly to keep my skin smooth to the touch. From my experience, this body wash feels comfortable and gentle, leaving my skin feeling refreshed and nourished. That said, I always perform patch testing with any new product on a small area first, just to be sure of my skin's tolerance—it is a simple step worth taking.

Good product just a bit pricey

This bottle of body wash comes with a screw top cap as well as a plastic bung in the top for safe delivery, but there is also a pump dispenser for you to attach for use that is long enough to get to the bottom of the bottle. The plastic bottle has instructions for use and ingredients list on it. It is a large bottle containing the unusual amount of 473ml of the liquid body wash. Lavender and Ylang Ylang are two of my favourite scents so I was interested to see how they would smell together in a product. The product does not smell unpleasant, but it is hard to detect the fragrances listed and it basically just has a basic soapy smell to me. Fortunately, I do have some essential oils that I can add to this to give the level of scent that I want, and I have not had any adverse reactions to the product. It does contain very small black round balls that I would prefer not to be in the body wash.

I ordered the Botanic Hearth Bulgarian Lavender & Ylang Ylang Body Wash for myself and my husband to use in the shower. We both like lavender and ylang ylang, and were curious to see how these fragrances work together. The product arrived neatly packaged and in very good condition. The body wash comes in a nice large size of 16 fl oz which should last for several weeks. I love the fact that the product has many naturial ingredients and is sulphate and paraben free. The Bulgarian lavender has a lovely strong aroma which perhaps slightly overshadows the ylang ylang. The texture of the body wash is smooth and not too dense with small black exfoliating beads. It doesn't lather that much when applied to a sponge or cloth, but the product does leave your skin feeling smooth and hydrated for longer. The bottle disappeared from our downstairs bathroom and my husband admitted to wanting to try it out. He suggested that it is "really lovely" which is quite unique for him to openly give any feedback. One of the aspects of the product that I like the most is the long lasting fragrance. With most products, you wash and immediately it smells lovely in the moment but then it's gone. The scent and aromas from the Bulgarian lavender and ylang ylang body wash do linger and not in an overpowering way, just a constant reminder of a calming and relaxing experience. Overall, a great quality product priced competitively against similar products on the market.

Love the snell of this shower gel. Already finished one and a half bottles. Lathers up well also.

What first attracted me to this body wash was knowing that Botanic Hearth products are ethically sourced, PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) certified, cruelty-free, and free from harsh chemicals and allergens. I'd not come across Bulgarian lavender before, but a quick google tells me that "the Bulgarian climate and soil yield a lavender flower that has a highly pronounced, assertive aroma and is rich in medicinal properties." Well, that would explain why this Bulgarian Lavender & Ylang Ylang Body Wash smells so strongly of lavender! I'm loving the smell, but can now see why it is suggested that you use a loofah in the shower, as the smell lingers on your hands, even after rinsing them well. This is good before bedtime as the aroma helps you drift off to sleep, but not so good before eating a sandwich for lunch! However, I would definitely recommend this body wash. The bottle is a good size, with a pump that works well, dispensing just the right amount. It's more of a lotion than a gel, and quickly produces a rich lather - which is often not the case with natural products. It certainly feels like it's moisturising my skin, and a little goes a long way, so not only easier to use but better value too.

Pump bottle didn’t work

Angenehm auf der Haut

Eigentlich ist das Produkt vielversprechend. Der Lavendelduft erfüllt diese Erwartung. Die Pflegewirkung der Dusch-Creme eher weniger. Daran ändern auch die Körnchen (ob Natur oder Synthetik) wenig, die eine gewisses Peeling vortäuschen sollen. Aber auch die Dosiereinrichtung hinterlässt eher einen rudimentären Eindruck. Ich werde es bei diesem Produkt vermutlich bei dem einen Versuch belassen.

Light feel great smell no residue left on skin Absolutely love it

I am taking two stars off because the product did not come as pictured. I specifically ordered this product because it I love ylang ylang and lavender, and most importantly because it had a pump and seemed to be decently sized.. unfortunately, the bottle that arrived was smaller and did not have a pump.

The body wash is feel good and left on the body with the scene of light floral. My skin feeling smoother and reduce the acne on the back. But sometimes it not come with the pump
