Disadvantages: N/A

Price: £12.20 fro 200ml
From: The Body Shop
For: Gentle exfoliation for soft, smooth, radiant skin

The packaging is a lovely red plastic tub, of the usual high quality that you expect from the Body Shop. The tub has a screw off lid which is easy to open but tightens up nicely so you can easily keep it in a toiletries bag and travel with it.

It's a fairly thick gel-like texture with a gorgeous cherry scent. The scent is sweet and fruity, but not too sweet and not too strong or over powering, and it really does smell good enough to eat. Wild cherry is fast becoming one of my favourite Body Shop scents.

The exfoliation, unlike most scrubs which have random grains or beads in them, comes from real kiwi seeds and crushed walnut shells. This means that they're not uniform in size, but even so they are fairly evenly distributed through the scrub and they are not harsh or scratchy on the skin.

It feels really nice to use, it smooths onto the skin easily and massaging it in gives a nice exfoliating action without irritating. It washes off easily, but there are sometimes some stray kiwi seeds to be found lurking after you think you've washed it all off!

It leaves my skin feeling very clean and smooth, and it doesn't dry out my skin so it is left very soft and looking healthy as well. I'm very impressed with the results which are better than any scrub I've used previously, which is surprising when you consider how gentle it is.

All in all this is a very good body scrub.
Thumbs up from me.

Summary: 5 stars
