My Experience with Bath and Body Works Summer Rain and Linen Shower Gel:
Packaging: The shower gel comes in the standard Bath and Body Works packaging of a sturdy plastic bottle. The cool blue and the rope and anchor details on the packaging truly transports you to sea shore. The bottle comes with a shiny sea blue press cap. The press cap helps to dispense only required quantity of the product. The bottle is transparent and helps to display the content. The shower gel itself is a blue color.
Formula/Performance: The consistency of the shower gel is not too thick and it lathers up very well (especially with a loofah). Hence, a small amount goes a long way. It does not dry me out and leaves my skin clean and fresh. The presence of Shea butter and Vitamin E do help in retaining the moisture in the skin. It rinses off easily and does not leave behind any residues.
Fragrance: Summer Rain is an amazingly refreshing fragrance. I possess a lot of Bath and Body Works fragrances, and I must admit that Summer Rain has now become my most favorite one. It strikes the right balance between floral and fruity with some wonderful notes provided by lemon, orange and jasmine. I love how my entire bathroom smells after I use this shower gel. I must say that this is kind of a gender neutral smell. It is not overtly girly and has the freshness that you mostly associate with men’s cologne. The smell is not long-lasting and continues to linger on my body for 1-2 hours before fading out.
Pros of Bath and Body Works Summer Rain and Linen Shower Gel:
- Very refreshing fragrance.
- Cleans well, leaving your skin refreshed.
- Does not dry out the skin due to the presence of Shea butter and Vitamin E.
- Attractive and sturdy packaging.
- Lathers well and will last long as not much product is needed.
Cons of Bath and Body Works Summer Rain and Linen Shower Gel:
- The smell is not long lasting on the body, but I am fine with that.
IMBB Rating:
4.5/5.
Would I Repurchase Bath and Body Works Summer Rain and Linen Shower Gel?
Fragrance is completely a personal choice. But, if clean, fresh fragrances are your liking, you must try this product out. I will surely buy other products from this fragrance. The shower gel itself will last me a long time and hence I will not repurchase.
