I loooooove the smell of this shower gel ! It's a pick-me-up, have-a-nice-day kind of smell, and I really like it.

I found this shower cream at Winner's for 7$ so I think it's a pretty sweet deal. I'm not sure if I would pay the full price for it however. It doesn't lather much so I suggest you use it with a small towel and not a loofah. I used it with a loofah and that's probably my mistake because It didn't leave my skin as moisturized and as feeling fresh as I think it would.

I know that seabucktorn, for some people, is used to treat keratosis pilaris, however I didn't saw an amelioration on my arms for that aspect.

This is my new favourite shower gel. I love the packaging (bright orange tube, yay happy showertime in the mornings!), the fact that it is easy to find where I live (supermarket or pharmacy) and the scent is divine to me. It's not too traditional "citrusy", but still fresh and zesty. I love it even in the autumn/winter. I also love the fact that it is SLS free and incredibly natural. I have gone through about 3 or 4 tubes of this since discovering it a few months ago, and will keep buying!

Love love love the yummy smell it is not cloyingly sweet or icky, just soothing and refreshing! I have very sensitive skin and a sensitive nose, so when I choose body-care products, it can be tough. A lot of natural products which are good for my skin smell way too strong and make me nauseous. This is an exception. I use it just to wash my face and neck since it is so expensive, and it honestly feels like a smoothie going on. Just a pea-sized drop coats my face, jaw, neck, and behind my ears with a soothing, cleansing lather. It leaves my skin soft, hydrated, and clean. Smells amazing too.

I know that Sea Buckthorn is very good and healing for the skin. I also feel it after taking a shower and using this body wash, but the smell-sweet mother of God. As far as I've read, I see that everybody really likes the scent it has, but I just can't stand it. I love how my skin feels after using this body wash, but while I'm actually taking the shower, I just can't wait to wash the product off my body as soon as possible. If you decide to get it, definitely smell it first. If you like the scent, you will love this product, if you don't- it won't get any better in your shower.

I got a couple of samples of this, leaves my skin really soft and buttery, love it. Will definitively purchase a full size. Sea buckthorn is very healing to your skin.

This is REALLY expensive but now and then I need a special treat. This is the best body wash in the world for me because of it's DIVINE smell. It's a soft wake me up with a warm breeze, the golden sun kisses my skin, mousse de limón/ naranja aroma kind of body wash. It's very moisturizing and gentle, so that I can even use it on my face with my clarisonic (I didn't want to buy an extra cleansing gel so I use this gentle wash which works perfectly for my combination skin). Go and get this one! Such a sensual experience!

I really like this shower cream, mostly for its lovely creamy consistency and absolutely wonderful smell, the smell is amazing. It doesn't lather that much but I don't see that as a problem because it's so creamy anyhow. This shower cream leaves my skin feeling soft (not dried out at all) and clean. I'm definitely going to buy this product again.

I really like this product! It smells so great, and lathers just fine if you use a sponge. It makes my skin feel so great. Buy it!

Pros: lovely citrus-ish smell, creamy, does not dry skin out;
Cons: does not lather, quite pricey for the amount you get.
Weleda's Body Washes are lovely but I reckon you can find much better organic soaps out there (e.g. Jason's).

I had such a difficult time trying to get this to lather. Gave up on my sample tube.
Am not convinced to purchase, but will definitely try the rose version eventually.
Just an okay product in my opinion, nothing amazing. Still on the hunt for that perfect organic body soap/bodywash.

Honestly, for me, there's nothing like this. I'd have no choice but to buy it no matter how much it'd cost! I always alternate a bunch of shower creams and bodylotions, but this has to be in the shower. Always. It cleanses, it leaves your skin soft and pretty moisturized, but it's the smell that does it all. How many smells actually does give you an energy boost every time you use it? As a previous reviewer put it: Worth waking up for. An does wonder after a long hard day too. Perfect!

I am a big fan of Weleda. I love all of their body washes, but this one is my favourite. I especially enjoy its fruity, fresh scent (oranges/candy) and the creamy formula. Most of my Weleda products are the ones with sea buckthorn - the smell is just to die for. I can't tell you how many bottles I've already used but it's been quite a few and no matter what other products I'm tempted to switch to once in a while, I always come back to this one.
There are cheaper body washes out there, that's for sure, however, this one is perfect for my dry (at times even extremely dry because of my hypothyroidism) skin. Even though I'm usually too lazy or have too little time to use a body balm/oil in the morning before rushing to work after taking a shower, it leaves my skin moisturised and fresh. And you don't need a lot of the product at all.
If you like products creating a lot of foam, this probably isn't a wash for you, if you like shower gels with smooth, creamy consistency, just give it a try. I promise you'll be hooked!

I've already gone through about 5 tubes of this. The Seabuckthorn and the citrus body wash are my all time favourite shower buddies. They leave your skin smooth and soft and aren't drying. Sort of creamy and silky texture plus a delicious orange smell.....mmmm that's worth waking up for.

I loooooove how this smells!! Like fresh cut oranges, and not at all synthetic. It is very invigorating in the shower. My only gripe, other than the price is that it doesn't lather at all. I didn't realized that before I dumped a bunch on my shower poof! It felt like I was rubbing a dry poof around on my skin, not pleasant. It moisturizes very well though when applied with your hands. This is worth a try for the scent alone.

Love the Sea Buckthorn range and this is my HG natural body wash. It is quite expensive though so am on the lookout for something cheaper.

I LOVE this. The scent is gorgeous, kinda orangey and refreshing. It is super moisturising, and I will definately repurchase.
