Well here’s hoping! Don’t mind paying a bit more if it works....

Niels yard geranium and orange. It’s like a garden in a bottle.

Fenjal. But it's an acquired taste.

Or Aesop's Rose by Any Other Name if in feeling spendy or someone has given it to me. LOVE it.

ewes milk bar soap

WhatWouldLeslieKnopeDo · 22/03/2018 20:41

Original Source mint will definitely wake you up...

Pink grapefruit by the body shop is really nice for first thing in the morning. And their moringa too. Cheap enough, it is reduced at the moment in their big size.

I also like Rituals foaming gels, they are £8.50 each and last ages.

Almond foaming oil by Occitane is also lovely if you like almond scents. I don't find it invigorating enough but it is very pleasant indeed!

Badedas.

possumgoddess · 22/03/2018 20:48

I second Badedas.

KirstenRaymonde · 22/03/2018 20:49

Original Source mint - in fact I have the XXL mint one and it’s still not minty enough.

Paie · 22/03/2018 20:49

Lush happy hippy. Never buy it myself though, get it as a present generally and a bottle can last me ages! Smells fruity and amazing

BrownTurkey · 22/03/2018 20:51

Peppermint bar soap.

theWarOnPeace · 22/03/2018 20:52

Nuxe shower gel. A dark honey colour, gentle and lovely smell

Screenburn · 22/03/2018 20:53

Korres pear & bergamot. Heavenly!

BiscayTrafalgarFitzroy · 22/03/2018 20:53

Lush - Whoosh jelly. Smells divine. So refreshing and zingy

LJdorothy · 22/03/2018 20:54

I got a Moulton Brown Oudh Accord and Gold body wash for Christmas and I love it. Agree that Body Shop's Pink Grapefruit is lovely too.

ephemeralfairy · 22/03/2018 20:54

Anything by Korres or Nuxe

MrsMeow · 22/03/2018 20:55

NOTHING makes me want to get out of bed in the morning! But once I do drag my festering carcass into the shower, Lush Dirty shower gel is lovely. Minty and fresh :)

Emmageddon · 22/03/2018 20:55

Original Source extreme wake up lemon & chilli shower gel is fabulous.

Shesellsseashellsontheseashore · 22/03/2018 20:56

Original source, limited edition, hibiscus and pomegranate.

FloorLamp · 22/03/2018 20:57

Lidl own brand Lime shower gel.

Smells absolutely amazing!

And it's only 33p a bottle.

Wasn't expecting much but was really impressed!

shadesofwinter · 22/03/2018 20:57

I love Korres - especially Santorini Vine and Japanese Rose.

3boysandabump · 22/03/2018 20:57

Any of the original source but especially the lemon.

notyounanbread · 22/03/2018 20:58

Liz Earle orange flower. Pricey but gorgeous.

bassackwards · 22/03/2018 20:58

Original Source Mint is very fresh and invigorating but be warned: it makes your bits tingle!

choccybiscuit · 22/03/2018 20:58
