Buy it Now: This Works Energy Bank Bath and Shower Gel

 

If you are anything like me, you are just now starting work on getting in shape for the summer. Of course, we've left it too late again to get fully Adonisised but that's no excuse not to keep on trying and to work up a sweat every so often. For a pre or post workout motivator, there is nothing better than this This Works Energy Bank Bath and Shower Gel, which is packed with energy enhancing essential oils to get you on your way. The heady aroma puts weak and synthetic cheaper fragrances to shame and, as expected from a company called This Works, it does, indeed, do exactly what is says on the bottle and restock your energy bank. Available for £19 from This Works.
