Yay for the Bay! In this series, for the month of February 2019, I’ll be featuring products from as well as around my stomping grounds, the San Francisco Bay Area.
Why, yes, it amuses me to no end that whenever I requirement a tropical ?? scent fix, the brand I normally turn to (H2O Plus) isn’t found someplace tropical. Instead, it’s based in San Francisco.

H2O+ appeal has been a fave of mine for ages. I really started utilizing them back when I resided in SF in the early Aughts (back when I was all about the Milk lotion). now I turn to them generally for body products, like shower gels as well as lotions, however they likewise have a few truly excellent skin care products too, like their $20 hydrating gel aspects keep It Fresh deal with Cleanser for typical to dry skin. I like utilizing it after I work out since it absolutely takes care of the sedimentary layers of sweat without drying out my cheeks, which is no simple feat!
But my “go-to” products from the brand, by far, are the Coconut Verbena Body laundry ($18) as well as Body Butter ($22). I get them whenever I see them on BOGO at Ulta (which is often, as well as ideal now there’s a buy-one-get-one at 40% online). The scent is my preferred tropical scent whenever I’m going with Hawaii withdrawals like I am now.
It’s beachy without the common sunscreen, piña colada or wonderful pineapple notes. It has a strong bright lemon verbena tone that lifts it up as well as provides it a citrus-y vibe that’s extremely refreshing, however there’s likewise a plumeria note, so you aren’t walking around just smelling like lemons, LOL! The coconut is perfection, too, since it smells like freshly cracked coconut rather than that artificially wonderful coconut candy.
