Every day I realise how ignorant I really am when it comes to what products contain, how they are made and the processes they go through till they reach our bathroom, which is one reason why I love doing reviews like this I get to try some amazing organic, cruelty free products, while educating myself, so although every day I realise how I might be living in ignorant bliss hopefully I take a step to shatter that and live in a full informed world, and hopefully I can show you so fab products in the process.Organic Surge products are 100% free of harsh chemicals – no parabens, sodium lauryl sulphate, no artificial fragrances or colourants and no genetically modified ingredients, they are also completely cruelty free, they are kinder to your skin and the environment and contain pure plant extracts and certified organic essential oils, every single product sold also helps support vulnerable products in Africa.For the last few weeks I have been trying out Organic Surges Deliciously Fragrant Body Care Bundle.
The bundle contains 5 amazingly scented, bergamot body care items. Bergamot is known to rebalance the skin and mind, while sweet orange oil works to improve skin texture and tone.Tropical Bergamot Hand Wash This smells divine, honestly I’ve had people use my toilet and come out asking about the hand wash that has to be a good response right on leavings ones lavatory right? The naturally active ingredients included are:
Bergamot essential oil – naturally relaxes, soothes skin conditions
Sweet orange essential oil – naturally eliminates toxins and stimulates the lymphatic system
Natural glycerine – a natural humectant which attracts moisture to the skin, helping it to remain hydrated and soft
Vitamin E – reduces skin irritation, provides natural anti-oxidant properties
Aloe vera – naturally calms and moisturises the skin
I’m not sure there’s anything bad to say about this hand wash, it ticks all the boxes cleans, smells nice, pumps out easily and doesn’t shoot across the room and down your top (yes I have that happen to me way to much), doesn’t dry out the skin at all. I did have a slight problem trying to open it at first, but I’m going to blame that on me bring tired at the time, as I have used another of Organic Surges hand washes in the past and I didn’t have such a problem. You can buy the Tropical Bergamot Hand Wash on its own for £4.09 (250ml)
Bergamot essential oil – naturally relaxes, soothes skin conditionsSweet orange essential oil – naturally eliminates toxins and stimulates the lymphatic systemNatural glycerine – a natural humectant which attracts moisture to the skin, helping it to remain hydrated and softVitamin E – reduces skin irritation, provides natural anti-oxidant propertiesSweet almond oil – a rapidly absorbed, lightweight skin moisturiserI have been using this as my main hand cream, so throughout the day and of course at night, it’s kept up the soft and supple feeling I had going on with my hands, which is a great feat as they do back slide really easily if they aren’t getting enough nourishment, my nails are still feeling strong and with the problems I have been having with brittle nails, it’s a very telling sign to me at least that this hand cream does what it says it does.You can buy the Tropical Bergamot Hand and Nail Cream individually for £4.09 (75ml)

I love the fact this smells so refreshing, it’s a great morning shower scent that wakes you up and gets you ready for the day. This body wash lathers easily and washes off without scrubbing while surrounding you the gorgeous scent. I’ve used it as a shower gel and as a base for shaving as I ran out of foam and it worked brilliantly for that as well.You can buy the Tropical Bergamot Shower Gel individually for £4.07 (250ml)
Tropical Bergamot Body ScrubContaining finely ground apricot stones and walnut shells to help gently exfoliate the skin, while sweet almond oil softens and replenishes skin moisture, it contains the following active ingredients:

It washes away easily as well so you don’t feel as if you are picking small bits off your skin for hours after. You can buy the Tropical Bergamot Body Scrub individually for £5.99 (200ml)

To be honest I’ve fallen head over heels for this whole set, I can’t think of any negatives (other than they don’t do more!) I wasn’t sure what to expect when it arrived or if I would even like the scent as a rule I’m not so much a citrus girl, so would you have told me I would adore it I would probably scoff and tell you to stop being so silly, but I must now eat my hat as yet again I have been proved completely wrong. I also love the fact this brand is so affordable, so often organic beauty and body products cost so much putting them out of the reach of the average person but this isn’t far off the price you would expect to pay for an ‘everyday’ product, I can definitely see more of Organic Surge’s products becoming a permanent fixture in my bathroom.
What’s more if you want to buy every one of the above instead of paying the full price of £24.23 bundles have a 10% discount meaning you would get all five items for £21.81.
