CremoRich-Lathering Palo Santo (Reserve Collection) Body Wash, Notes of Bright Cardamom, Dry Papyrus and Aromatic Palo Santo, 16 Fl Oz (2-Pack)

One of the features that I enjoy about liquid soap is its ability to quickly refresh skin. This Palo Santo product is certainly one of the most unique offerings on the market; it is warm and pleasant, albeit a short-lasting fragrance as should be expected of any body wash. While most customers will consider using this product exclusively as a body wash, my preference is to enjoy it throughout the day as a hand and face refreshment.Use a foaming soap dispenserThis product can be used as a daily hand and facial wash. Now, you might be thinking that this would be pretty inconvenient because the product is contained in a talI bottle with a flip-up top that can be both clumsy to use and takes up counter space. To address these problems, transfer the product into a small, foaming pump, counter top dispenser.Now I know what you’re thinking; how is this possible? This product has a viscosity similar to syrup. It will never pass through a foaming dispenser. And you would be correct in that critique; so don’t use it straight-up from the Cremo bottle. Instead, dilute the product with water. Since I’ve used this method before with other liquid soap products, I know that it will work consistently by following a few simple steps.The goal is to make a diluted solution of at least 90% warm water and 10% product, in other words a 9-to-1 dilution. Using a smaller ratio with too much product will likely jam the pumping mechanism because the product is too viscous to transit the foaming mechanism.How would this be done?Step 1. Select an empty foaming soap dispenser. The brand is not as important as long as you are able to fill it with water and soap product.Step 2. Fill the dispenser with warm water to reach about three inches from the top of the bottle.Step 3. Pour in Palo Santo to raise the water level to about one inch above the existing water line.Step 4. Cover the top of the dispenser with your palm and gently mix the product and water by rocking the bottle, or stir the product until it mixes with the water. I don’t recommend shaking the bottle. Shaking will result in a lot of soapy lather escaping the container before the pump top is reattached.Note: When filling the container, leave enough air space at the top of the dispenser for the stem and pump mechanism to be returned to the container. Overfilling just means that some product will escape when recapped.Step 5. After the top is reattached, prime the pump a few times and the foam mixture should smoothly leave the bottle. Photo One shows the water and Palo Santo mixture. As you can see, the mixture is transparent.The result is an easy to use hand and face foam wash. This pump spray approach means that the Cremo bottle can be stored away until a refill is needed. This process should work for every clear Cremo product.Create your signature fragranceThe Palo Santo fragrance is unique, but its colorless appearance in a dispenser is not inviting. The product could use some color to make it more appealing and some zhoosh fragrance from another product. To accomplish this, add an extra body wash product that is both colorful and has a complementary fragrance to the original Palo Santo. All it takes is this addition to Step 3:Step 3-PLUS. Add about a quarter inch of another liquid soap to the container and mix it as in Step 4. The result is now a colorful mixture with a more expressive fragrance.Three different combinationsIn my first trial, Palo Santo was mixed with sage and cedar wood that added an attractive teal color (see photo 2). In the second trial Palo Santo was mixed with mint and rosemary making a blue combo (see photo 3). The third trial was a mixture of coconut and black pepper creating a purple mixture (see photo 4). Each of these combinations produced a complex blend of fragrances that would appeal to family and friends.Blend Palo Santo to your personal tastePalo Santo has a reputation for being a “mature” fragrance. Fair enough. But it does need to be—like Old Spice(y) or Hai Karate. Instead, it can be developed into a more chic and modern choice. By adding a dash of extra ingredients, you can design a blended Palo Santo fragrance that is both more complex and appealing. Certainly, with a little experimentation, you can also create a variety of mixtures that enhance Palo Santo and broaden the spectrum of your daily hand and face wash products. Just start with your favorite Cremo product and zhoosh-it-up.

I love the product! I have almost every product offered! I used it in my air b n b for guests because it was amazing and the packaging chic and sexy!I started using it far before it gained popularity and was sold in Target. The packaging before the recent change elevated the look and gave the product high end sophistication to match the unique sophisticated scents. As a loyal customer I’ll continue to use it, the scents are amazing but I very much dislike the new packaging, it looks cheap, basic, and not something I want on display. Definitely does embrace an elevated esthetic. Hope you consider going back to your original packaging!

Thecscent of this body wash is GREAT. It has a warm and comforting aroma that is not too overpowering, but still lingers on the skin for hours after use. This body wash has a fragrance so unique and unlike anything I have ever smelled before - it has a smoky, woodsy aroma that is both calming and invigorating at the same time.Aside from the amazing scent, the body wash itself is also of high quality. It lathers up nicely and leaves my skin feeling clean and moisturized. I appreciate that it is free of harsh chemicals and sulfates, so I know that I am using a product that is safe and gentle for my skin.

I’ve always liked Cremo products. I am a lady by the way and I’ve always used their creams for shaving my legs because you can get an incredibly smooth close shave. I have a pixie cut short hair and I use some of their hair products like their matte and their shine in the tins, and they’re great so when their bath line came out, I was excited ! They all really smell like a really great smelling guy, this fragrance Palo Alto smells the most unisex. I bathe with this at night time ,I take a shower in the morning in a bath at night so I don’t really mind that it leaves me smelling masculine just to sleep, but the smell really lasts and the lather and the foam is very thick and rich. Very nice stuff

Love smell, suds and feel.

This body wash has a great scent and it lasts a good long time. It also has great lathering. I would highly recommend this product.

I’ve gotten compliments on it, paired with the matching cologne
