Lidl’s Relax Shower Gel! Out of all of the dupes I’ve tried, THIS is my favourite and has been purchased many, many times when it’s in stock. The market is flooded with dupes from well known brands of skincare, body products, fragrance and bath and shower goodies. But this shower gel, even thinking about it, makes me smile. But why?
What is this a dupe of?
Lidl’s Relax Shower Gel is a dupe of Sleepy Shower Gel by LUSH. Is this an accurate dupe? Although I haven’t tried the shower gel, I have used, multiple times, products from the LUSH Sleepy range. This includes the Bubble Bath Bar and Bear Bath Bomb. Both have got a distinctive fragrance to them which Lidl’s Relax Shower Gel is very similar in scent wise. Also, the packaging of Lidl’s product is ‘inspired’ by Sleepy. So from my observations, definitely a dupe!
Price
Lidl’s Relax Shower Gel costs £1.99 for 500ml vs LUSH’s Sleepy Shower Gel £27.00 for 520g (other sizes at different prices available, but this is the closest weight to the Lidl version).
Packaging
Lidl’s Relax Shower Gel comes in a plastic bottle with black labelling, and so does the version from LUSH. Both very simple in look but striking in an understated way.
My experience of Lidl’s Relax Shower Gel
This is a product I use in both the bath and the shower. Considering my skin can be sensitive sometimes and easily irritated, this causes no issues. It doesn’t dry out my skin and leaves my skin feeling clean and ready for the next stage once out of the bath or shower. It creates nourishing, creamy bubbles which are long lasting. But it’s the fragrance for me which is the best bit. It’s so relaxing. It’s a gorgeous sweet, modern lavender heavy scent which really helps you to unwind especially at night. Its strong enough to make an impact but not to the point it blows your senses away. I would describe this as one of the best shower gels I’ve EVER used!
My favourite dupe?
Yes it is! Although I can’t compare this directly with the LUSH version as I’ve never used it, and to be honest I never will. Why would I when Lidl’s Relax Shower Gel is so good and cheap! I know a good product that works for me when I use it and this is it. How many bottles of this have I bought and used since it’s release? I couldn’t even count! It’s not always in stock in my local branch so I grab it when I can.
If you haven’t tried this shower gel yet, I would say please do! Maybe the fragrance of lavender isn’t for you. There are other versions as well such as Honey I’m Home which is INCREDIBLE! But which ever you go for, it’s £1.99 well spent!
