C.O. Bigelow is the oldest apothecary store in New York City. Its brand was acquired by Limited Brands a few years back, and since, the "Honest, Genuine, Trustworthy" products of Bigelow can be found much beyond the island of Manhattan. Most recently, Bigelow has capitalized on its very popular Mentha line (breath-freshening lip gloss, anyone?) and come out with minty fresh shampoo, conditioner, body scrub and body wash.

Just in time for summer, they also decided to throw some fruit-and-mint combo body washes into the mix, featuring Mentha Raspberry, Mentha Lime, Mentha Lemon and Mentha Orange. All smelled pretty delicious, but the raspberry won my heart. Just the right combination of scents, and a quality body-wash consistency, composed of all-natural ingredients. Bigelow is, indeed, "Honest, Genuine, Trustworthy", as I have yet to be disappointed with a single product from them!
