A Different Type of Bubbly
Time for a spa-like shower! Also, roundups are moving to Wednesdays.
Hello, Gorgeous!
Is it just me, or do the weeks get ever shorter and more stressful? I thought so. I’ve noticed that even though summer has barely made its presence known, people are still sneaking out early for the weekend. In a tiny bit of housekeeping, the weekend roundup will henceforth be known as the midweek roundup and will appear on Wednesdays. Cool, right?
So for today, let’s talk about those long showers (but not so long that you waste all the water) that wash away the week.
Colleen Rothschild Ritual Body Wash
I’m almost embarrassed to tell you just how many shower gels live in my shower, but it’s a lot. I rely on my morning or nighttime showers to help me get ready for my day or my bed. And that means that I choose my bathing partners intentionally.
Right now I’m more than a bit in love with the new drop from Colleen Rothschild: Ritual Body Wash. Avocado oil, squalane, sea buckthorn oil, vitamin C, and a blend of antioxidant-rich botanical extracts tick the box for me in terms of excellent ingredients. And it has just the right amount of frothy bubbles. But it’s the scent that really gets me. While I’m convinced I smelled mostly grapefruit, and once again, my nose was right — it's a light blend of sparkling citron, bergamot, pink grapefruit, and green notes. It also left my skin feeling replenished instead of dried out ($38, colleenrothschild.com).
Add a shower pouf
Want to up the spa factor? Cleanlogic has a whole bunch of body exfoliators and gentle scrubbers, including this slightly oversized antimicrobial mesh sponge that comes in a whole bunch of colors and tie-dyed patterns ($8 for two, cleanlogic.com).
And it’s going to be a scorcher of a weekend, so I predict a multi-shower day with some of my faves.
What’s your fave shower gel right now? For years I only used Neutrogena Rainbath, but I feel like I try pretty much anything these days. How about you? Let’s meet in the comments to discuss!
