    I really like this scrub. The trick is to use while you're dry before you turn on the water. I scrub each body part for about 1-2 minutes and then rinse. I'm really soft afterwards and don't...

    For a SCRUB this product is lacking. There is not enough exfoliants in there to do anything, however, i have never had more moisturized skin when pairing this with the shea body butter. I just...

    I'm a fan of body shop scrubs although I'm not a fan of some of the fragrances. This one is pretty good, it seems more natural than those fruity ones. It's reasonably priced, I feel really clean...

    I love this scrub! I think it's more abrasive than the Olive one but it's still gentle to the skin. It leaves my skin feeling soft and moisturized after shower and the smell! Gosh, so lovely!

    I have always been impressed with body shop's scrubs as I felt that for such a price, it was very value for money. This smells great, sometimes quite overpowering, but I feel that it was very...

    I got this scrub in the 1.8oz size for $2 at the SemiAnnual Sale. I believe the tag said this size usually retails for $10, which is absurd. The scent is soft and sweet, but not overpowering. The...

    This is hands down the worst body scrub I have ever used it. It gave me the weirdest dry skin I've ever had, it felt like I had used alcohol santizer all over my body. I would never ever buy this...

    While this isn't my favourite body scrub out there, I like it. This is not the scrub for you if you want something on the more abrasive side, to really exfoliate, which I do from time to time; for...

    I love BS Shea Body Butter and Scrub and have been using them for years. The scrub works best if you wet it a little in your hand and then lather all over your body. While scrubing, it also...

    I was very dissapointed in this. I love the Body Shop, and I love the body butter in Shea, but this is an awful scrub. It's not very exfoliating at all- barely any little granules at all. The only...
