Gray, gray, go away. Burst into Gloomaway after your morning shower! Strongly Recommended by Whom You Know.

It is a gray day in Manhattan, and Origins has come to our rescue!  Moisturize with Peachy continues through this cold biting winter and today especially with a bit of snow falling, we needed something that smelled like Florida to get us going!  Gray thoughts, dark feelings and the crabbiness of morning are melted away like butter in a sweetly sour body souffle that is cheerfully ready to greet you the moment you emerge from your morning shower!  Gloomaway is just what we all need this time of year, and it is a fresh scent that will joyfully take you into spring.  Of course, Gloomaway is by Origins, one of our favorites.  It is a brand that not only puts out amazing products, but also it is a brand that consistently awakens our senses.
