A few months ago I was lucky to grab some body care products reduced on clearance from Boots. Some of those products were INEOS Skin Science Body Washes. I bought these mainly for my teenage son because they were decent sizes, fragrances I thought he would like and brilliant prices. But I recently spotted this range in my local Tesco. Different packaging, not on clearance BUT bigger sizes than I bought and on a Tesco Clubcard deal. So what did I find?
Fragrances
I saw three different fragrances available, which were:
Mint + Geranium. Cooling, clean and with an earthiness to this scent.
Mandarin + Sandalwood. A zesty, invigorating citrus with warming and slightly woody notes.
Sea Salt + Blue Lotus. A hint of floral mixed in with a marine undertone.
What’s so special about these body washes?
They contain essential oils. Designed to be gentle on the skin but still be an effective cleanser. These products apparently are ‘Plant powered’, which could be why these formulas contain sage oil, rosemary leaf extract and sunflower seed oil, just to name a few of the ingredients included.
Packaging
These body washes come in a clear, plastic, pump dispenser bottle. The labelling makes these body washes look quite unisex and functional. I like the fact it does have a pump, meaning using this can be more controlled and also more hygienic.
Size & Price
Now, this is the good bit! These body washes in Tesco come in 500ml. The ones I purchases from Boots was 300ml. The usual retail price for these 500ml versions is £4.00. On Boots website the 300ml is still being sold, and for £3.00. But at the time of writing his post, using Tesco’s club card, these body washes are £2.95 each! Which is great value considering the sizes.
Tempted? Am I? My son still hasn’t used his current stash of these body washes so we will wait and see.
