Advantages: Smells edible, does exactly what it is meant to

Disadvantages: The smell may be slightly strong if you are sensitive to smells

I'm just gonna start off by saying I LOVE this product. I got it about a year ago along with the Soap & Glory Righteous Butter (which I have also reviewed) and I haven't looked back. The 300ml tub is a similar style to the rest of the Soap & Glory range, with a very retro, black-and-white, 50's feel to it, which really makes it stand out.

First thing I want to say about this - it smells AWESOME. Sometimes, I actually feel like eating it. It smells sweet, but not sickening or nauseous, just yummy and fruity.

Ingredients include shea butter, to leave skin feeling soft and super-moisturised, and sugar, peach seed powder and sea salt, which give the scrub its grainy texture. To apply, you simply scoop out a handful and massage it into damp skin (I usually use it in the shower) until most of the grains have gone. This stuff is so effective, you can normally see the dead skin it has lifted off mixed in with the grains!

Next all you have to do is rinse it well, and then dry. I find that when I rinse the stuff off, my skin feels like the scrub has left some kind of oily residue, although this disappears completely once the skin is dried, leaving it smooth, exfoliated and radiant.

Really, I would recommend this to anyone. I can't remember exactly how much I bought my tub for, but I think it was around £9.99, which in my opinion is pretty good for such an effective scrub. I think there is also a smaller size available now though, for those who want to try it out before committing, as 300ml is quite a lot if you aren't sure this is what you're looking for. But in my opinion £9.99 is a small price to pay for super-smooth, exfoliated legs!

Summary: Definately worth trying, especially if you can get your hands on the smaller sized tub!
