Eco Cosmetics Green Tea and Pomegranate Shower Gel is a good value for money natural shower gel. I’m currently using my second bottle of this organic shower gel, because I really like it. Why? It’s Ecocert certified organic, costs under £5, cleans gently without drying, and contains lovely botanical ingredients.
I’ve never heard German natural cosmetics company Eco Cosmetics mentioned by other natural beauty bloggers. That’s a shame, because they have some really nice products which are all certified organic, vegan, and cruelty free. Unusually, their products are formulated with well water opposed to tap water, which helps with sustainability. The packaging is made from recycled materials.
In my opinion, the design of the shower gel’s packaging doesn’t do it justice. From a quick glance, I can hardly tell it contains such beneficial ingredients.
The scent is a citrus, green tea type fragrance which is very refreshing in a shower gel. It appeals to both women and men and is neither feminine nor masculine. The gel is clear and slightly runny.
Let’s have a look at the ingredients.

Green tea
A beneficial ingredient to the skin, as well as a healthy beverage, green tea has been shown to reduce skin inflammation and give some sun protection when used with a sunscreen.
Green tea applied to the skin may help with the signs of aging, since the polyphenols it contains eradicate free radicals. Because of the antibacterial properties of green tea, it makes a great addition to a shower gel.
Pomegranate
An amazing ingredient for all kinds of skincare products. Pomegranate can reducing scarring and help with minor irritations.
Pomegranate is high in protective antioxidants and improves skin’s collagen production. Rich in omega 5 fatty acid, it prevents moisture loss and keeps skin hydrated.
Grape leaf extract
Traditionally used to heal wounds and give antioxidant value. Grape leaf extract offers astringency, which can help control moisture levels.
Grape leaf extract contains alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) that naturally exfoliate dead skin cells leading to clearer looking skin.

Final thoughts on Eco Cosmetics Green Tea and Pomegranate Shower Gel
Most shower gels clean well, but many can dry out the skin, particularly dry skin prone to flakiness. This lovely shower gel cleans without being overly drying or exacerbating psoriasis.
With great green creds and a fantastic low price, this is definitely one to stash in your bathroom!
