After gazing at the harvest moon and feeling your mind at ease, wash your whole body while being enveloped in the scent of osmanthus oolong tea. This limited edition shower gel has a two-tone gold and clear color that sparkles like flower petals illuminated by the full moon.
Many people find their souls purified on the clear, moonlit autumn nights. August 15th on the lunar calendar was said to be the day when the moon was most beautiful throughout the year, so aristocrats in the Heian period would hold banquets to enjoy moon viewing.
Also, in East Asia, the Mid-Autumn Festival is held on the same day, where people admire the beautiful moon, enjoy mooncakes, a sweet made to resemble the full moon, and delicious tea, and celebrate a bountiful harvest.
The inspiration for Harvest Moon Shower Gel is Osmanthus Oolong, an oolong tea scented with Osmanthus. The Osmanthus flower heralds the arrival of autumn and is used in China to flavor foods and perfumes, similar to pumpkin spice in the West, and also has the effect of softening skin.
