Sephora Tropical Jasmine Body Scrub







I came across this while cleaning my room. I honestly should organize and clean my  stuff more often because I come across awesomes treasures. This tropical sugar scrub is scented with jasmine, coconut, sandalwood, tahitian vanilla and white amber. The body scrub lathers well and left my skin feeling soft and smooth. It also left my skin sweetly scented. I am a bit disappointed that it was discontinued at Sephora but I have one more bottle before I have to start worrying.

LaLicious Moisturizing Body Scrub - Sugar Kiss

As seasons change our skin need the occasional scrub down. Body scrubs is one of best way to remove dull skin. I was bit hesitant in trying LaLicious body scrub because the name sounds a bit childish, but now I am in love. But don’t be fooled by the name, this is one top notch product. The scrub made my skin silky smooth and soft.  My skin was hydrated and well moisturized. The scent was sweet and the soft scent lingers.  The only thing that was a bit disappointing was that the scrub was hard to rub into my skin. It took quite an effort to rub in the scrub into my skin. Other than that, I recommend taking a look at this body scrub.

LaRocca Champagne and Shimmer Acai Sugar Polish


Photo Source: LaRocca Skincare

This luxe champagne body polish has promise but doesn’t quite live up to it. The sweet smelling polish is packed with acai, raw sugar, shea butter, champagne grapes and 24k colloidal gold. The scrub has poor lather and it took a bit of work to work the scrub into my skin. The scrub did make my skin smooth and hydrated but only after thoroughly having to work it in. I also noticed that I felt a slight tingle while applying the scrub and a bit of tingle after washing the scrub away. It feels like my body was covered in peppermint oil which was very uncomfortable to deal with during a freezing night in December. Skip this overpriced scrub and stick with a tried and true favorite.

OluvFresh Olive Leaf Body Scrub


As the old adage goes, “Anything that looks bad or tastes bad is usually good for you”. This is the case with this body scrub. It looks like the byproduct of a vegetarian lunch. As disgusting as that sounds, it looks just as bad. Aside from the physical appearance, this scrub really got the job done. It left my skin feeling soft and well moisturized thanks to the essential oils and sugar based texture. The scrub leaves a bit of mess because of the crushed olive leaves, so be prepared for a bit of cleaning up. This scrub reminds me of Fresh Brown Sugar, so if you are a fan of Fresh, be sure to check this out.

Naturally Victoria's Secret Grapefruit, Lime & Mint Energizing Body Polish

On my recent trip to the outlet mall in Jersey Gardens, I came across this little coveted treasure. It left my skin feeling so soft and smooth, I can't wait to go back and get some more. I was sorely disappointed when, I realized Victoria Secret no longer carries it online [pouts!]. But let me tell you a little more about this gem. The foaming sugar based body polish is loaded with essential minerals, lime peel, grapefruit and mint. Don't forget to apply a moisturizer to keep your skin softer longer. The only downside to scrub in my opinion is that it really smells bad.
