Although the N-Spa Fruit range is a range of products I am a massive fan of, I normally shy away from the indulgent fruit range which is what this gingerbread latte body cream is part of. The scents in this range, although very nice upon the first sniff, are extremely sickly in my opinion and I couldn't imagine having my entire body smelling like 'chocolate waffle'!

However, when I recently took a trip to my local Asda and inevitably ended up looking at the N-Spa products I couldn't help but notice this gingerbread latte body cream on offer for just £1 for a 300ml tub. Upon noticing such an good price (the rest of the N-Spa body creams are priced at £3 for a 200ml tub) I decided I'd have a smell and see if it was worth buying. It definitely was!

As the product name would suggest, the first scent that hits you when you screw off the lid of this product is quite a strong gingerbread smell. Smelling it for a little longer enables you to detect a slight cinnamon scent as well. Personally, I found this scent reminds me of Christmas time and it's definitely what I would consider a winter scent. It's a very 'cosy' smell which I don't find to be sickly in the least bit. I wouldn't describe it as a particularly feminine scent but it's still very nice.

The body cream comes in a clear plastic round tub with a black screw on lid. There's a long black sticker stuck around the tub which supplies you with the product name, ingredients list, how to apply and of course, that little warning about not eating the cream as it's not a food product. This sticker also informs us that the product is not tested on animals.

I'm undecided about the cream's colour. It's either a very pale brown or a very pale orange, I can't quite make my mind up! It's colour does match it's smell in terms of how appealing it is though. Very appealing to me at least!
The cream is quite thick but I find my skin absorbs it quickly and easily and it doesn't leave my skin feeling greasy at all. To apply take a generous helping and rub into dry skin after a bath or shower. As the cream is so easy to apply I don't find this process takes very long at all. If your skin is still a little damp when applying this though I do find it takes a lot more effort to rub in so I would recommend thoroughly towel drying before applying.

The effects of applying this cream are amazing. I've noticed significant improvement in the softness of my skin since using this and you can pretty much feel the difference straight away. My skin has also developed that 'healthy glow' people seem to go on about so much these days which is another added bonus!

The scent doesn't really last all day which is my only fault with this product. It does last a good couple of hours though and the effects of the touch and look of my skin do last a lot longer which I feel is the most important thing.
I imagine this product will last a good while as well. I've been using mine on near enough a daily basis for the past two weeks and my tub hardly looks touched.

I never would have pictured myself loving anything from the N-Spa indulgent fruit range anywhere near as much as I love this product. I'm definitely pleased I decided to purchase the tub as it's quickly become one of my favourites and something I will certainly be applying through the month of December.
