Clarifying Body Wash from Ole Henriksen, available now (£26, beautybay.com)

What it promises: This rich herbal body cleanser is loaded with purifying and soothing extracts. Containing orange fruit and cedar wood and with no harsh detergents, this extremely gentle body wash leaves skin feeling clean and silky.

What it actually does: This is easily one of the nicest body washes I’ve used for a long time. The densely textured formula transforms into a creamy lather, with a little going a long way, and the scent is soft, subtle and just a little bit sweet. Best of all, the clarifying element comes from the addition of orange fruit and aloe vera, rather the overpowering menthol or tea tree present in most other astringent body washes. A must-have for summer-ready skin.

Rating: 5/5
