The Lush Sleepy range is one I have heard so many good things about and I finally managed to get my order in and grab the shower gel alongside a few other products, so I was hoping it would live up to the hype it has created and the expectations I had in my mind.
Lush state that you should start your bedtime routine right with this lavender shower gel and drift of to dreamland with the help of soothing oat milk alongside sweet-smelling tonka and you'll have skin softer than you could ever dream of.
Sleep, drift to sleep,Sweet tonka counts the sheep,Lavender shakes the dreamland tree,And from it fall sweet dreams for thee.
As with all Lush Shower Gels, this one has a lovely formula which isn't too thick or too runny and you need just a few squeezes of the bottle to release more than enough to create a lather, release the scent of those ingredients. and enjoy your relaxing shower.
As with all Lush products, this one also has an impressive list of ingredients which includes:
- Oak Milk - made from rolled oats and something which has been used for centuries, oak milk not only helps to relieve itching, but it is also soothing for the skin.
- Lavender Oil - if sleeping is an issue for you, then Lavender is a great ally when you need to switch off l, relax and wind down before bed. The flowers from Lavender are filled with a product called linalool, and it is known for its sedative effects on the nervous system, so it is perfect for helping to wind down.
- Benzoin Resinoid - Cleansing with products that contain this ingredient is described as being an excellent way to benefit from its natural antibacterial and anti-inflammatory qualities whilst feeling relaxed and soothed.
- Tonka Absolute - Wonderfully sweet smelling, it is not only extremely soothing for the skin, but thag aroma is incredibly comforting and brings about a sense of calm.
What I love about this Shower Gel, is that for me it is relaxing, it does aid that process of winding down before bedtime and I can imagine, if paired with the Lush Sleeping Lotion, which I am yet to try, I imagine they would make quite the duo.
This Sleepy Shower Gel from Lush is still on sale online and in store and is priced at £7 for 110g bottle rising upwards depending on the size you purchase.
