Rhug Wild Beauty, Exfoliating Body Scrub with Rosemary & Rhug Honey
“Wow, what a classy looking and smelling product. Luxurious appearance. I was so happy to use this: removed the rough flaky skin I had on my arms from sunburn gently and left my skin moisturised; was comforting to use without being harsh. Treated the skin well, removing rough areas kindly and effectively, leaving the skin soft, plump and moisture drenched, and it made me feel pampered. What a perfect product. My skin is dull no more. Love, love, love this. For the size of the tub and the brilliance of the product, this is worth every penny. The best scrub I have ever used.”
“Lovely big tub; nice, classy packaging, looked like an expensive, high-end beauty product. Reassuringly heavy — there’s a lot of product in there! Texture was a little ‘wetter’ than my usual scrubs, but it was lovely when used on the body; it didn’t scratch or scour the skin, and felt gorgeously oily, gliding across the areas on which you are using it. It is gentle, but powerful; the texture and fragrance alone tell you the ingredients are top-notch. Left my skin polished and silky and gently fragranced after every use, and made my skin super smooth and nicely moisturised. I absolutely loved it.”

ANI Skincare, Renewal Body Polish
“Looked luxurious: an oil and sugar-based body polish and quite thick in texture, which is good as it meant it was easy to apply and didn’t just slide off my skin. The fragrance has geranium and lavender tones; woody and floral as well as a certain sweetness. Fabulous! From the first use it made a difference to how my skin looked and felt. Made it feel revitalised and as if I had applied a body oil. It performs well day-to-day and fits well into my routine, if anything making it more efficient as there’s no need to wash with a seperate shower gel or to apply body lotion. Has been a joy to use. Has helped skin to look renewed and healthy just in time for summer.”
Soak in the Elements, Unwind Himalayan Salt Body Scrub
“Big chunky jar. Oils used — lavender, rose geranium and ylang ylang — are all favourites so the combination sounded heavenly. The finer salt grains are easy to move around skin, and a big plus point is that they don’t irritate my fingers. Helped me feel more relaxed and it’s been easier to sleep after use. This is really benefiting my skin and well-being. My skin has lost it grey tinge and my shins, knees and elbows are much softer and no longer flaky. On the evenings I use this; I don’t need to moisturise my body; on the evening that I don’t, my moisturiser seems to absorb much better and I don’t need as much. Has delivered everything I expect from a scrub and the gorgeous, calming fragrance is a big bonus. It’s a lovely product.”
The Good Zest Company, Lime Body Wash
“Stylish metal bottle. Zingy fragrance. I adore this product first thing in a morning: it really energises my mind and body due to the invigorating fragrance. It was great at cleansing my skin, and left it feeling soft and smooth. I didn’t need to use much of the body wash: a little goes a long way. It was delightful and I didn’t need to use a moisturiser afterwards as my skin felt lovely and hydrated. It promises to be gentle on skin and tough on bacteria to soothe inflammation and irritation, and purify the skin: I have a few spots on my back and it does seem to be improving them, I have had fewer spots since using it and the spots don’t look as red as they did before. A lovely aromatic wash.”

Oak and Stone Organics, Activating Face + Body Polish
“Lovely packaging; keen to start using this intriguing product as I struggle to find unfragranced body scrub. It’s a textured powder and smells tropical, like coconut milk. Loved how creamy the powder became on contact with water and my skin felt exceptionally soft … I was briefly transported to the beach! It rinsed off with ease. I continued to enjoy using this. My skin was well exfoliated after use. Skin has been particularly sensitive due to a reaction to some medication, and this scrub helped soothe itchy arms. Jar came in a cute hessian bag and would make a beautiful gift.”
Spritzy Limited, Geranium, Pine & Rosemary Soap
“Used it every day in the shower; you don’t need to use much for a good wash, and bottle has lasted a long time. Slotted into my routine very easily and pleasant to use. The more I used the soap the more I liked it. Gentle but effective, fragrance was great for mornings, not too strong but enough fragrance to feel luxurious. Felt the soap spread easily, glided over my skin, I didn’t have to go back to the bottle to keep pumping out more product. My skin can be on the dry side, especially on my legs. I had no dryness after using; my skin seems to like the formula. My legs definitely feel softer, with no scales! Very happy with the condition of my skin after using for a month. I really enjoyed it.”
