Product Review: Ivory 2 in 1 Bodywash and Shampoo

I have been gone for so long! I'm sorry!!  Hubs had his second surgery, resulting from an accident he had this past fall, so I've been nursing him back to health.  And I've done such a fine job, so tonight he's off at his last grad school class EVER!!  And I finally get to blog again.

And I have an awesome product review for you tonight!  As you can see from above, it was my first Vox Box from Influenster.  I was selected to try Ivory's new 2 in 1 Body Wash. It's a body wash and shampoo in one, to make shower and bath time that much easier.



I'm not a 2 in 1 kinda girl, especially when it comes to my hair.  This messy mane requires a LOT of conditioner.  So while this wasn't something I was excited to use on myself, I thought it would be perfect for Bebe.  And I was right!  It works great in her hair, although I do follow up with conditioner because she has my coarse hair, and it leaves her skin so soft.  And of course she smells great.  Is there anything better smelling than a clean baby, err, three year old?  And she loves it because she gets to play with her bath toys that much sooner.  I also discovered it makes an awesome bubble bath.  I can't let her use the fun Disney character bubble bath she wants from the stores, because it gives her a slight rash, so I love that this makes such a great bubble.  Now I can give her the fun bath time she likes, and not a rash to go along with it!

Of course, I had to try this myself; just not as a shampoo.  I already knew how that would turn out, and it wasn't going to be good.  But, I did use it both as a soap in the shower, and while shaving.  As a soap, it was slightly drying on my skin, which I wasn't expecting since it didn't leave Bebe dry.  However, as a shaving cream, it didn't seem as drying.  Maybe it was the moisturizing strip in my razor, or maybe my legs don't get as dry as my arms?  But either way, it will be a nice backup for those occasions when I run out mid shave, or forget to buy more!

I'm giving it 4 out of 5 stars, due to how awesome it works during the baby bath. It's not all the great for me, as I predicted, but like I said, I love it for kids.  Hubs used it once or twice during his recovery, and said it was something he would be interested in trying again, but that was all the review I could get out of him.
