===My Opinion===

I had a good selection of Body Shop items from my son and his girlfriend for Christmas and one item was this large tube of body polish.
This was a limited edition product for Christmas 2012 and it therefore has an image of snowflakes on the front of the tube, but this is discreet behind the vanilla pods so not overly Christmassy. As you can see form the image above it is virtually invisible.
I just love the smell of this product. The polish itself is semi transparent and a sort of toffee colour with tiny bits of 'polish' suspended in it, similar to grains of sand, while here and there you will see a larger dark piece of something - possibly vanilla seeds.
This is called a gentle polish that you could use every day, and it certainly is. Very unlike a sugar scrub I have which is much more vigorous.
This polish can be used daily - I just love the aroma - a sort of vanilla and nutty smell which is also quite sweet - probably the honey ingredients. I have used this in the bath and the shower.
When first using it in the shower I thought maybe it would be difficult to rinse off but there was no problem at all. Getting personal - I use this on my behind and tops of my legs to get rid of the goose pimply skin we often tend to get there in wintertime. It is not too harsh at all and just leaves your skin feeling smooth - but not as if you have been scouring yourself with sandpaper! The polish bits are small and interspersed well in the gel and it does sort of lather up a little as well. In the bath I also love rubbing it over my feet - it feels very relaxing.
The polish had a good strong aroma but not too overpowering - I just like the fact that the smell is strong and detectable as I do not like using products that have a non-existent smell.
It is a shame that this is only on sale at Christmas time but I am using this sparingly so it will last as long as possible. You only need a little at a time anyway and you still get the gorgeous smell.
Being on sale for £7 on Ebay I find quite expensive - though the tube is quite large and would be nice as a treat for yourself or a gift for a friend.
I have also used a tiny blob now and again when washing my hands as it leaves a lovely smell afterwards and your hands feel lovely and soft.
