Olbas Shower Gel has been added to the brand's product portfolio in the UK just ahead of cold and flu season to help quickly alleviate congestion. The product features the signature Olbas formula with its menthol-driven profile that will activate upon use in the shower to cleanse the skin, while the vapors will make breathing a little easier. The product is positioned as a more convenient alternative to the Olbas Bath product for those who can't find the time for a bath or would simply prefer a shower experience.
Senior Brand Manager Rachel Ramsden spoke on the Olbas Shower Gel saying, "Our Olbas range has always been about providing comfort and relief to the whole family wherever and whenever it’s needed most. With more people opting for showers over baths, we saw an opportunity to bring our signature vapours into a format that fits seamlessly into everyday routines. Olbas Shower Gel is designed for busy mornings or wind-down evenings, delivering that familiar, decongestion sensation while keeping skin nourished and refreshed.”
