Posh Wosh Soap Review*

By February 1, 2013 Beauty, DIY & Lifestyle, Fashion

photo 1 photo 2Posh Wosh Soaps are handmade soaps which are suitable for Vegetarians, they are not tested on animals, and they are all Paraben Free. Their soaps are specially made as they keep in the magical ingredient which is Glycerine. Glyrcerine is moisturising on your skin, and many highstreet brands leave this out, which is why they say ‘don’t wash your face with soap, as it dries your skin out’, but Posh Wosh Soaps, won’t! Posh Wosh Soaps are also in expensive, which is unusual for handmade soaps, which is also brilliant! Their products are priced at £2.25, or £12 for 6 Soaps. They have Orange, Raspberry, Lemon, Coconut, Rose & Lavender.

The reason I started making my own soaps was because they look better, smell better and wash better – and for a small amount, I get to enjoy being “Posh” every time I “Wosh” – Anne Marie Gordon (Creator)

photo 3 photo 4I received 3 lovely bars of soap, here are the ‘Simply Raspberry‘ and the ‘Simply Coconut‘ bars. I love how they are wrapped, they are super cute, and simple! I would probably say they look a lot slicker and bit nicer to have in your bathroom, as with normal high street soaps, I feel they can be quite clumpy, and rather boring. The scent of them wrapped up, was literally amazing. My brother couldn’t stop sniffing them (and he’s a 19 year old, mountain biker), and neither could I, they seriously smelt divine! They are quite big in size, and I think I will get good use out of them.

photo 2 photo 3I’m not allergic to anything, but sometimes it’s good to know the ingredients of what you’re putting on your skin, as your skin is very delicate and should be looked after extra specially, but, in the Winter months my skin can become a little bit more sensitive, and I think all these ingredients look pretty good to me! And, knowing that the special moisturisng ingredient, of which is Glycerine, makes me feel like it is going to work a lot better!

photo 4 photo 5I also received the ‘Simply Lemon‘ bar, which I tested out, because I really want to save the others, as Coconut and any type of Berry are my favourite scents! When I was showering, I found that the scent actually became stronger as it mixed with the water, which is pretty cool! I found it was quite light on my skin, as in with other soaps they can be heavy and cloggy when you first apply it, but this one definitely wasn’t, it almost felt like I wasn’t putting anything on (but in a good way 🙂 ). I could tell it was doing its ‘soap’ job, because my skin started to feel lighter and obviously, cleaner. In one quick shower, I would say I used about a ‘line’ on the bar of soap (see above pictures), which is pretty good compared to ordinary soaps in which shrivel up to nothing within seconds. After washing, my skin felt quite soft and felt ‘happy’. I usually moisturise afterwards, to lock in the goodness, so that did take a little bit of the scent away, but I definitely didn’t smell ‘soapy’, which I like.

SCENT: 8/10 – They smell amazing before & during use.

AFTER USE: 7/10: My skin felt clean and nourished!

LOOK: 8/10 – Super duper cute packaging, would be great for a gift!

OVERALL: 8/10 – Would definitely recommend for people who are on a budget, but want good quality stuff! Plus, they are really friendly people!
