After another light snowfall it seemed like a good time to
test my OGX Body Care. The formulas are loaded with natural emollients and the
large bottles last a long time.
The Argan Oil of Morocco Extra Hydrating Body Wash ($8.99)
is described as rich, creamy and decadent (just what I need this time of year).
The silk proteins are supposed to make your skin feel soft, silky and smooth
while gentle cleansing agents rinse away dirt, oil and pollutants.
I read a few reviews claiming that the brand has reformulated
this product and apparently people aren’t too happy about it. Since I’ve only
ever tried this version, I have nothing else to compare it to within the
collection but no complaints here.
I really like the scent. It smells fresh and clean – similar
to a wonderful shampoo that you can’t stop sniffing. Despite not having any harsh
sulfates, the luscious gel lathers well on my bath puff and envelops me in fluffy
bubbles that don’t dry out my skin or leave behind residue. Even on the coldest
winter days, I am not rushing to dunk myself in cream after I towel off so I’d
say the argan oil is working.
The Eucalyptus Mint Body Lotion ($8.99) smells like a spa or
an essential oil diffuser - very botanical and natural. Infused with tea tree,
peppermint and eucalyptus, the lightweight formula feels cooling,
soothing and invigorating, especially after a relaxing shower. I like that it
melts in quickly with no greasiness and leaves my skin feeling touchably soft
all day. It’s no wonder this stuff sells out fast!
I also tried the Locking+ Coconut Curls Finishing Mist
($9.99) which tightens your tendrils and provides frizz-free hold
without the crunch. It smells like a delicious tropical breeze and keeps my
spirals neat, bouncy and shiny with no stickiness and minimal stiffness. I detect a hint
of alcohol behind the sweetness (similar to hairspray) but it works well with
my leave-in conditioners.
OGX is available at Walmart, Shoppers Drug Mart, Jean Coutu
and Loblaws. Visit the website at ca.ogxbeauty.com
