    This was a Christmas gift & part of a set. I didn't notice much of a scent, as is often the case with Shea Butter products. It's faint at best. The exfoliating factor was decent, though not as...

    I really liked this body scrub because, unlike most body shop scrubs, it actually works. This is a sugar based scrub so it has that grittiness that you need to really exfoliate your skin and to...

    Thaïs product really good and I love the smell of it. Easy to wash. By the way it has moisterizer in it so it doesn't dry out your skin.

    I found this to be just okay - nothing amazing, but definitely not as bad as some of the drugstore brands I've tried in the past. It's good that the sugar and salt melts away as you use it so...

    I find it great as a scrub for sensitive skin (like my current situation) as the granules of salt and sugar does melt away after a while. I use a loofah so that helps to prolong the...

    This is a very gentle scrub, with small beads that melt on your body. Personally I can't stand those scrubs that feel like they're scratching your skin. This one feels great on the skin and it...

    This is okay. Not overly abrasive but I like to use it with a washcloth or on dry skin to make it a little more scrubby. The shea one is meant for very dry skin so it is oil based and it leaves a...

    I really like this scrub, but it has two downsides. It doesn't scrub enough for me (I like it on the ruff side..høhø) and it doesn't moisturizes enough alone. Maybe it will be better used on dry...
