Advantages: Does the job, I suppose.

Disadvantages: Massively overpriced. Contains a potentially irritating essential oil

I used to work for Origins, and, as such, often got to try a lot of the products.

This product is essentially a basic body scrub which utlises apricot seeds for manual exfoliation and contains essential oils. There are lots of body scrubs on the market that will do exactly the same job for a fraction of the price. This one will probably attempt to justify its price tag on the basis that it contains a lot of essential oils, but - yet again - there are others on the market containing essential oils for a fraction of the price.

On top of this, essential oils aren't always the best of ideas for the skin. For example, cinnamon oil (which is in the product) can often act as a skin irritant.

Essentially, then, you're paying for a brand name and some witty blurb on the back.

In short, hilariously overpriced for such a basic product. I tried it. It's nothing special.

Summary: Too expensive!!
