I haven't used a body scrub for years (gak!) But this product bought back really quickly the reasons why I, (and everyone else) should do.
The product just smells DEVINE, it has a fresh Grapefruit smell that I just love so I was hooked almost at once. The base of the scrub is sea salt, but not a really big chunky mix, this is more of a finer slurry.
So away I scrubbed and then I rinsed and OMG how silky and smooth did my skin feel! It seriously felt like I had "shed" a whole layer..which I probably had.
I rarely react to anything and I like a harsher scrub on my face than many facial scrubs provide, so I even used it on my face and there you have it a great result there as well.
To be honest, I love it so much I have to stop myself from using it every day!
The only reason I haven't given this 5's all the way, was the price. Yes it was amazing and it is a generous pot so given you'd probably use it one twice a week max, it will probably last 4-6 weeks, but $58...hmmmm, the jury is out for me if i'd shell that out on a regular basis.
I was super excited to try this body scrub, as to be totally honest I haven't used one in a while! The smell is very citrusy and incredibly refreshing, and while the smell doesn't linger long on your skin it does make your bathroom smell lovely for hours after.
The formulation is quite soft, and I did think it would have been a bit more abrasive as it is a sea salt based scrub. I do quite like a harsh scrub, and I found I needed quite a bit of the product to get the abrasive action I needed. My skin did feel really smooth after using and the shea butter is extremely hydrating. The only reason I didn't give this a 5 is because I think it could be a little more abrasive and also because of the price!
Tips: Use it on dry skin for a rougher scrub, or on wet skin for a more gentle ex foliation.
