GOLD (JOINT) AWARD and BEST NATURAL Dr. Hauschka Shower Cream

An update of this super-natural German brand’s much loved Shower Cream, our testers were totally wowed by the enlivening fragrance from the citrusy essential oils, as well as the promised gentle and skin-nourishing properties of this creamy wash, which features mild sugar surfactants to give it a little bit of foam plus other plant-based cleansers. We’d say it’s pretty good value too, as testers agreed.

Beauty Bible TESTERS’ COMMENTS:

‘10/10 (only because 11 isn’t an option) Yes!!! This smells incredible! The lemongrass scent is to die for! Relaxing but refreshing at the same time.’

‘Oh, the fragrance is divine, it's a zingy lemon that's just perfect-not too acidic, but heady and makes me dream of being in lemon groves in Greece or somewhere else abroad! I adore it’

‘It's a great consistency, creamy like a lotion, but not too thick, no real effort to squeeze the tube, and it goes all creamy and unctuous when mixed with water on my shower scrunchie.’

‘I wasn't sure if it would last long as the tube isn't huge, but I found around a teaspoonful was enough to wash my body using a shower scrunchie. The fragrance enhanced my showering experience, and I found the innovative tube worked really well and there was no product wastage and no water penetration into it.’

‘Really lovely product; my skin was soft moisturised and I could see the difference.’

‘I still used body cream afterwards as my body skin is very dry, but it did leave me feeling more moisturised afterwards than I usually do after using my normal shower gels.’

‘Promises to be gentle and nourishing: huge YES to both of these; my sensitive slightly dry skin loved this product, the essential oils really left me feeling perked up and my skin felt silky and smelt amazing after use.’

‘It left my skin feeling much softer than my usual product and the scent lasted on my skin for a long while too, plus it was very nice to use and felt both uplifting and soothing-like a high end spa product.’

‘My skin definitely felt soft and silky after a week of use and I preferred this to my regular shower gels, as I didn't need any body lotion after using it.’

SILVER (JOINT) AWARD and BEST NATURAL Dr. Hauschka Neem Nail & Cuticle Oil

An absolute classic from pioneering naturals brand Dr. Hauschka, which has featured in these Awards on and off since the beginning, based around medicinal plants including (most particularly) neem oil, which is renowned for its nail-strengthening action, along with extracts of apricot oil, chamomile and anthyllis to moisturise and protect against breakage, while softening and renewing cuticles. Delivered from a glass pipette bottle, to be massaged into nails (we suggest last thing at night).

Beauty Bible TESTERS’ COMMENTS:

‘Adore this oil. What a difference it has made - complete game-changer. My nails and skin around the nail bed used to look dry, cracked and ugly and I felt my nails aged my hands. Not now, though! Nails are growing better, are not brittle and look shiny and healthier. Everyone should own this oil, it’s the best ever! ’

‘Cuticles and nails look fantastic after two weeks; I can see the white half-moon in my nails now! Skin around nails is silky with no dryness and my nails are nowhere near as brittle and look much healthier!’

‘Simply a miracle-maker; my nails are no longer dry, brittle or ridged and look like manicured nails!’

‘I have always thought of cuticle oil as an unnecessary faff but have been impressed at this product; there was a definite difference on the nails on the hand that I trialled the product on. The cuticles were much softer and the nails on the treated hand not as flaky, seeming stronger with fewer breakages.’

‘Normally, my cuticles are in a of a mess as I work as a carer; my nails aren't great. They are soft and flaky. The nails that were treated were more flexible compared to the untreated hand and only a drop is required, so the product lasts a long time. Will purchase in the future and look forward to healthy strong nails.’

‘My nails are looking good. I have applied nail polish for the first time in ages. I will use this oil forever.’
