I bought a big fat bottle of this last weekend and boy do I love it!
This shower cream, which doubles as shampoo also comes in other versions: Lavender, Honey, Vanilla, Verbena or Ylang Ylang. It's gentle enough to use on babies - I bathed my kids with it and they just smell yummy top to bottom! Your skin is silky upon rinsing, and your hair is left soft and shiny even without a conditioner (better than some shampoos that claim to soften and give shine)*. In fact, my soap-intolerant 3-yr old's skin also seems to like it - he hasn't itched for days now!
I'm lazy when it comes to moisturising my body so when I shower with this I think I can get away with not putting on body lotion as often as I should! 
Sorry this isn't a thorough review, but I have to run. Fire away any questions or comments you have and I'll get back to y'all later. I just had to write this one because I've never been so excited about a shower cream (fragranced ones are drying, creamy ones don't lather etc). Definitely a staple in my house from now on  !
* I used the Milk, can't say the same about the other versions because I haven't tried them. |

Hiya! This sounds perfect for me as I love a good smelling bath/shower lotion but I have to careful as most of the ones I try are'nt good on my skin. If it is gentle enough for babies I bet will be good for my sensitive skin.
I just recently tried baby bees (burts bees) and love it so far. Been wanting to try the L'Occitane hand lotion and will be putting this shower cream on my "list" too.
thanks for the tip!

This sounds nice - thank you for the review! Why do I have such a weakness for shower/bath products?! I am almost out of the Weleda Lavender Bath Milk that I bought recently  |

This sounds like a fabulous product for taking when travelling, I love the idea of it doubling as a shower gel and a shampoo!!  |

The vanilla bath and shower gel is to die for!  . It's more of a gel than a cream like the shea butter range, but lovely and moisturizing, and smells gorgeous. |

I thought I'd update my review: For the past week I've been washing my hair with this, and I'd like to add that the fact that it does two jobs isn't just fabulous for travelling, but also for lazy people like me!
I ran out of shampoo and for some reason have been lazy about shopping for one. I use this bath cream to shampoo my kids' hair, so I thought I'd just keep using it on mine. The first few washes was just okay, nothing to write home about so to speak, but it did impress me that for a product made for the body, it did a great job at washing the hair - pleasant scent, and while my hair did tangle a bit (couldn't be bothered with condish) it dried soft and shiny.
Now the best thing isn't just that: my dry scalp also benefited, and is no more flaky! 
This definitely is a keeper. |

| I love the shea butter shower cream as a shampoo, I find it makes my hair really soft and shiny but you can't use it all the time, great to take on holiday though. |

| How big is the bottle, and how much is it? I love L'Occitane products, and I like to try new shower products. |

| I do not want to spend so much money on a shower, but actually L'Occitane Shea Butter body cream is very good, which is really doing a good job on moisture my skin during winter. But, anyway, I do not like the smell of Shea Butter.... |

I definiely love L'occitane products. I've tried their SHEA BUTTER body lotion, SHEA face mask. they rescued my skin form dryness and sensitivity.
now they launched out the new Olive organic line. I'm really interested, cause I've tried the old version, they are fabulous too. |

Very nice information! Thanks a lot!
I've read that many ppl recommend the body products of this brand more than his skin care.
Put the product in my list... |

| Does the scent linger noticeably out of the shower, or it just while using it that you notice the scent? |
