Shower gels

What are you searching for in a shower gel?


Do you want it to be extremely foaming or not too much? Do you like it light on the skin or do you like it to have a layer or "cream" on your skin while applying it along your body?


Actually, every shower gel is different, be it in the aspect, the touch side, the color or most importantly, its fragrance!



Actually consumers choose their shower gels considering the fragrance's aspect first. So, of course, the choice of the fragrance used is very important. And depending on the seasons or people's mood at a certain period of the year, the marketing service focuses a part of their work on this question. Especially when you developp a new product.



Actually, when you formulate a shower gel, it is a bit like when you buy this cosmetic. You smell the fragrance first, you look at the color, the aspect, and you try it at home to test its particularity on the skin, during and after the shower.



Of course it is a bit more complex, since you have to take in consideration the viscosity of the product for it to fit the exact requirements, but as a chemist technician just as a consumer, the feeling and reaction while having this product in your hand is quite similar. :-)



What is your favorite shower gel? And why do you like it particularly?

I hope someone will stop by and answer this question ;-)



See you for the little details about how formulating a shower gel is a bit different from formulating a white product (cream for instance).

I love the family dollar brand in watermellon for the smell and soapyness. I love dr bronner and its no frill brands for the natural ingredients, because it lasts because they are potent, and they leAve me fresh ferling squeaky clean. And depending on the main ingredient like peppermint or black soap it does different things for your body
