Philosophy shower gels are some of my favorite things. If I were Oprah, I would make a gift basket with every scent, and give it to myself. My birthday was last month, but if you are thinking, “How can I randomly go spend money on Maria?” this is always on my Under $20 present list.
The best part about these shower gels is that they smell almost exactly like what they’re supposed to. That sounds obvious, but I am not a fan of when something is called “Apple,” but smells like a scratch and sniff sticker from second grade. Philosophy markets these as a shampoo/shower gel/ bubble bath, but I have enough hair that I would go through a bottle a week if I used this as shampoo too.
My favorite, (especially in the winter months) is Cinnamon Buns. It smells and looks like the icing on cinnamon rolls. Yum! If you’re on a diet, this will either help your cravings, or you’ll be in the car in a towel heading for the nearest Cinnabon.
Next time I am at Sephora, I am picking up Senorita Margarita, one of my favorites, and great for summer which, where I live, lasts from mid April through mid October. I love everything margarita, and craved them the entire time I was pregnant. Wine and all other booze grossed me out, but Mama wanted her ritas. Senorita Margarita was the closest I got. I thought about telling people I was considering the name Rita if one of the twins had been a girl, but figured they would have assumed that I was drunk.
Another favorite is Strawberry Milkshake, but I am excited about trying Crème Brulee, and ‘be a Peach’, as well as Spiced Apple Cider in the fall.
Although I do like chocolate, things that are fake chocolate scented kinda gross me out, so I have avoided those scents. Let me know if you’ve tried them and think I should give them a chance.
Next time you’re at Sephora, ask them for a free sample. They can put any of the shower gels in little pots to take home and try.
