The other part of my birthday present from my friend (if you've read my previous review!) I guess these go together as a set, but this product is only something I would use now and again.

This is a body exfoliating cream, I don't have overly rough skin anyway, but I feel giving myself a scrub every so often in the shower makes me feel sparkly and smooth.

This comes in a 250ml round tub and I think it cost £15. I think this is pricy for something I would only use now and again, but it is the brand name you are paying for. then again if you only use it sometimes, then it will last for ages.

The tub is plastic and you can just see though it, as it is kind of frosted plastic. The writing on the tub is silver and green and the cream inside is a light green. The lid is silver and it has a plastic lid inside as well, but I binned the inner lid, as I kept having to remove it in the shower, and to try and find a place to leave it.

The smell is a creamy/salty/ocean kind of smell. Not too strong a smell, but just a fresh scent with a hint of muskiness thrown in.

You scoop this cream out and you only need a little bit to cover a large area. the cream is smooth and thick and it has gritty bits mixed in with the cream. It isn't too abrasive, but just gives a light scrub to the skin.

It is best to buy Clinique products in 2's as often when you buy 2 things, you get a bonus bag with trial sized products in it, and although the items are expensive, it feels like you are getting a freebie for your money.

Would I buy this myself? Doubt it. it is a good product, works well and doesn't dry your skin, but it is too expensive for me!
