Pangea Organics Shower Gel: Pyrenees Lavender With Cardamom

I received this as a gift before I knew anything about green beauty (thanks Amanda!). Pangea Organics is a great company out of Colorado. From the bottle: "ALWAYS: nurturing, handcrafted, organic, fair trade (whenever possible), cruelty-free. NEVER: petroleum, sulfates or detergents, synthetic preservatives, artificial colors or fragrances, GMOs." Sounds great, right?

This shower gel smells fantastic (love lavender) and lasts FOREVER. It is recommended for "thirsty to balanced skin", although I don't think it's particularly moisturizing. One little problem I ran across is that the bottle tends to get clogged so I have to unscrew the flip top to pour it out. Kind of annoying, but still a great product. It's pretty widely available--I've seen it at Trade Secret, drugstore.com, and Cost Plus World Market (you can also buy directly from their website). Availability and convenience is a huge plus! I was sniffing the bottles at World Market the other day and there is also a pine scent that seems promising.

BUY IT!!
