Today while I was at CVS, I spotted some new Organix body washes and lotions in three scents: Coconut Milk & Hibiscus, Morrocan Argan Oil, and Cherry Blossom & Rice Milk.
The Coconut Milk and Hibiscus is a "creamy" body wash and body lotion.
The Cherry Blossom & Rice Milk is a "cashmere" body wash and body creme.
The Moroccan Argan Oil is a "creamy oil" body wash and body lotion.
They seem to mirror the hair products, which I absolutely adore the scents of, but haven't necessarily stood out to me in terms of performance. But, the thought of using that amazing Coconut Milk & Hibiscus scent all over, instead of just on my hair is enough to make me want to try these!
Have you tried these? If not, do you want to?

I'm really psyched about the new Gud line from Burt's Bees! There are four scents that I talked about in a previous post (see post here) , but this post is a review of the Pearanormal Activity scent, which is exclusive to Target and not sold on Gud's website, (gudhappens.com).
It is paraben free, and contains no phthalates, or petrochemicals. I love that it has so many natural ingredients, but unfortunately, it is not sulfate free. :( I looked up the main sudsing ingredient, sodium coco-sulfate, and it's basically a close cousin to sodium laureth sulfate. But despite that, I still really love this body wash.
Here are some label shots:
It foams very nicely, even without using a pouf or washcloth, and it left my skin feeling very clean, yet soft. It's not drying at all, (and I have very dry skin).
The pear & acai berry scent is fantastic! I liked it in the store, but I liked it even more in the shower this morning. It was really fresh smelling and invigorating, and the scent lasts a loooong time. Hours later, I am still catching a whiff of it every time my arm goes past my face, and I find that I keep sniffing my skin (and probably look like a weirdo).
Even my husband, who isn't crazy about perfumes and scents in general, said I smelled good today. Plus, I didn't wear perfume, because I wanted to see how the staying power on the scent was, and didn't want anything to compete with it.
Has anyone seen this in stores yet? Or tried any of the other products in the line?
