Review: Soap and Glory 'Sugar Crush' Body Wash

Hi girls. Friday at last! Today's post is heavily related to the one that I wrote yesterday as it is about another product from the 'Sugar Crush' line by Soap and Glory. [Yesterday's post: link]. The line is fairly new and is a little different from their standard 'pink' range with the girly and floral smells, as this one is more citrusy and fresh. The Sugar Crush only contains 3 products at the moment: the body scrub, the body wash, and the body butter. If they bring out a 'lotion' as opposed to a 'butter' in the form of this smell then I'm going to be dropping everything and running straight to Boots for it. **(I wrote that sentence and then saw that it says on the bottle to 'follow with a similarly scented lotion or butter' - does the lotion already exist?!)

I was so happy when I bought this a few weeks ago and it was certainly 650 Boots points well spent! I popped it in my shower as soon as I got home and the humongous fluroescent pink and yellow bottle certainly brightened things up in there. As I just said, the bottle is absolutely massive, and I like that it has a pump dispenser so there's no hassle, no mess and no waste when using this in the shower And no slippy hands dropping bottles on toes..

The formula is rich and creamy and foams up to create a really lovely lather than cleans the skin well without stripping it of moisture and it leaves the skin conditioned and nourished after use. It is a similar scent to the scrub that I was talking about yesterday; it's really fresh and 'zesty', it's got a real 'wake me up' feel to it. Absolutely perfect to use first thing in the morning to perk you up out of your zombie state and every so often throughout the day I catch a little hint of the scent from my body.



I don't know if it makes me sound like a little bit of a loon that I have gone so ga-ga over a body scrub and a shower gel, but there's just something about Soap and Glory that they just keep getting right! They keep on bringing out these fabulous products that I just cannot get enough of.

Have you tried the Sugar Crush range yet?

Review: Soap and Glory 'Sugar Crush' Body Scrub

Hi girls, hope you're all having a good week!

I'm going to talk to you all today about a recent new favourite product of mine that I am absolutely obsessed with! I'm literally using it every single day because I can't have a shower without it.. and nobody needs to exfoliate that much do they, really?

This body scrub from Soap and Glory was a part of the 'Best of All' gift set that I bought for myself as a little Christmas treat (you can see it in this haul post), but I'd been lusting after anything from the new 'Sugar Crush' range for months and months. I know that it's a little bit of a love it/hate it kind of smell with this range, and it really is unique, but I personally absolutely love it! Can I admit that sometimes when I'm in the bathroom I open the tub just to stand there and sniff it? Don't judge me. The scent is sweet and sour mixed together in a way that my nostrils don't really know how to handle it. The zingy, zesty lime fragrance hits first and is the most powerful, but there is a sweet and smooth undertone of brown sugar that balances it out to make it super yummy. (I never thought that I'd be spending my Thursday afternoon talking about a balance of scents!). If I've not sold you on how brilliant the scent is then run down to Boots and stick your nose in a tub of this ASAP.

Onto the scrub itself; it's a gooey consistency that melts to a little bit of an oil base (it does contain almond oil to soften the skin), and it has large but not overly abrasive grains of macadamia to scrub the surface of skin. Rubbed into the body it gives just the right amount of cleanliness, fresh exfoliation, softness and moisturisation, and sweet smelling skin!

I've never really been much of an exfoliation fan just because I've not seen the need to do it; I'm not a big fake tan wearer and the skin on my body isn't dry and flakey, it's just 'normal'. This was one of those products that I used 'because it was there' and now I've fallen in love and don't want to be without it. I'm converted to the world of scrubbing up! It costs £8.00 for 300ml which I think is reasonably priced because the tub lasts a long time (although not at the rate I'm going through it) so I expect that I'll be getting myself some more once I have eventually run out.

Since using and falling head over heels in love with this scrub, I have since gone out and bought the matching Sugar Crush body wash to get all the yummy Sugar Crush-ness that I can get!
