The last time I tried Soap and Glory products was about 4 years ago, when I got one of those big sets they do at Christmas time. Half of the stuff in the set I didn't even end up using, because it just didn't appeal to me. Anyway, I was in Boots again last month, and I saw all of their products were on 3 for 2. So I got 3 products that I knew I needed, and would make good use of, and now I will tell you what I think.
I purchased the 'Sugar Crush' body wash, the 'Breakfast Scrub' and 'The Righteous Body Butter'.
Body Wash
The body wash has a 'Sweet Lime' scent to it. I wasn't sure on the scent at first, only because its not the kind of scent I would usually go for, I prefer quite sweet candy kind of smells and this is quite citrusy. However after I used it a few times, I have grown to like it. It's a cream like texture and feels really moisturising when you put it on, it seems to coat your skin in a silky layer. It doesn't really lather up like other body washes but it still does the job of making you smell and feel lovely and fresh.
Body Scrub
The Breakfast Scrub literally smells like you could grab a spoon and just start eating it! (However on the back it does say 'THIS IS NOT FOOD'. I love the smell of it so much! If you're not the kind of person that likes sweet, sugary, syrupy smells, you won't like this. It has banana, almond and honey extracts, but the main scent is maple syrup. I've cut all sugary things out of my diet at the minute, so if I can't eat it, why not smother my body in it instead?
So this is a really good scrub for using on any dry areas of skin like the knee caps, elbows etc. I use it to exfoliate those areas before I put fake tan on, to avoid any dark patches. I also use it to help get fake tan off when it's started fading. You apply it onto wet skin, give it a good scrub and then rinse it off with water. It leaves your skin feeling nice and smooth.
The Body Butter
I can't think of a way to describe the scent of this body butter, but it smells really nice. Its an antioxidant formula with ingredients like Shea butter, almond oil aloe vera, and all good things like that. It gives 24 hour moisture and it soaks straight into the skin, it doesn't fell tacky for hours afterwards.
I've been using this about 2/3 times a week for about a month now, and look how much I've got left, I'm pretty sure it will last me the whole year!
I love using this trio altogether, it makes my skin feel super smooth and silky. I love the quirky packaging that they are in. They are good products, but I if you have a tendency to react to fragranced things, you might not get along with them too well. I would say they are worth a try though.
