Its smelled divine, even when dry. According to the Lush website it is filled with the organic goodness of Lemon, Lime, Grapefruit, Rosemary and Geranium with a dash of Citronella. However, the little Jelly has an overpowering Lime scent to it. Taking one sniff refreshes your mind, body and soul.
Due to my perplexity with using the little blob of jelly I googled the various ways to use it. I'm not exactly fond of washcloths. They're soggy, dirty and rife with germs. Thus I opted to break small pieces off the giant jelly and washing all over with it. My fear was that using the entire jelly would cause it to lose shape, or to become dirty or moldy. My method didn't have a very good result. It really didn't want to foam much and ended up on the shower floor far sooner than I anticipated.
I then succumbed to using it with a cloth, as all reviews stated that this is the preferred method. Again I didn't have much luck. It didn't foam much, but it was definitely a bit better than just using my hand.
Since we were experiencing a serious heat wave I decided to use the next recommendation. I stuck broken off pieces of the jelly in the freezer. The result was lovely and cool, but still not what I desired. Definitely refreshing though!
Finally I hit a spot of luck. I received a care hamper from another cosmetic company. Inside the package was a mesh pouf sponge. Fighting my issues with things that hang in the shower for extended periods of time I decided to give it a go.
What I found was a winner. The mesh sponge causes the jelly to foam. Finally! I had the refreshing, foamy goodness I was looking for.
During the process of experimenting with the various techniques, my four year old got hold of the poor, innocent jelly. It was rendered to something resembling bubblegum Slush Puppy. However, this did not stop it from packing a serious punch. Using the mesh pouf sponge the little slushy bits still performed just as well.
The key to this product is to find the method that works best for you. Use it whole with a bath cloth or shower sponge, break pieces off, freeze it, refrigerate it. Whichever you prefer, you won't be disappointed. This small jelly packs a serious punch that will leave you refreshed and ready to take on the world.
At R85.00 for 100g the Woosh Jelly is totally worth it. My 100g container lasted me more than a month, even after being turned into liquidized jelly slush.
