• For aroma. All gels from the World Gardens series smell excellently, at least very much it are pleasant to me. Unless except aroma of coffee gel, too strong for me. Tenderness of aroma, an easy veil around after a shower – here what I love Yves Rocher for in general and fell in love with "The Californian almonds" in particular. However, in a case with this gel, aroma on the fan – it not so neutral, as "Lotus" or "Cotton" from this series: it is rather with the small slightly bitter taste peculiar to almonds. It seems to me, it will be pleasant to those who got tired from sweet luscious aromas. Also I very much like to use it in hot time: pistachio color and aroma with a taste of bitterness affects me okhlazhdayushche))) Sweet smells during a heat are not for me.
• For consistence. Consistence – my ideal: it is cream, color opaque. It is pleasant to squeeze out it on a hand (and it is exactly squeezed out, but does not pour out, because quite dense), and it is possible to apply both with a bast, and without it. However, keep in mind that if to wash it without use of a bast, then the expense will be where big: without it it foams and forms lather rather weakly.
• For foam. And here if with a bast – foam is excellent: gentle and moderately dense. Gel excellently moisturizes the skin. One more plus: foam is well washed away from skin, without leaving a film.
• For convenient packing. I like design of this series Yves Rocher: the appearance of a bottle and a lid are beautiful, but at the same time are simple, and to hold in hand a bottle very conveniently at the expense of its form. However, recently faced that lids of "World gardens" became very hard, held this gel constantly open not to break every time nails (or teeth))))
• For volume. 200 ml – most that for me: gel brings pleasure, allows to get acquainted with itself, but does not become boring yet.
• For the fact that after it it is possible not to use body cream. Here and there is nothing to explain: gel perfectly moisturizes the skin, and it does not need additional moistening.
What does not please?
• Some moments in structure: in spite of the fact that Yves Rocher positions himself as a natural brand, this gel does not shine with poleznost at all. To take at least these two components - SLS and Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate, they dry skin and can cause allergies. Probably somehow to reduce their rigid influence, the structure contains juice of an aloe and glycerin. However, the last is not especially good for skin too: an impression can be made that the skin is moisturized, and actually dry.
In general this shower gel was pleasant to me therefore, despite minuses in structure, I will continue to use it and I can recommend for lovers of original aromas.
