Soap and Glory The Whole She - Bang

I have picked up the 'big star gift' Soap and Glory set again this Year, and what a treat it is! I am such a fan of the brand and can not resist this amazing deal; £70 worth of products, retails at £60... and is just £30 at Boots during it's Week as the star gift. 

I think I have taken advantage of Soap and Glory's star gift every Year apart from last Year, sometimes I ask for it for Christmas and other times I pick it up myself.

The Whole She - Bang includes 9 full sized products; Peaches & Clean, Sexy Mother Pucker Lip Gloss, Thick & Fast Mascara, The Righteous Butter Body Butter, Clean On Me Shower Gel, The Scrub Of Your Life, Heel Genius, The Righteous Butter Tinted Body Lotion and Hand Food Hand Cream. I love that this set always includes great products that I know I will get a lot of use out of.

ACORELLE BODY SCRUB

Acorelle Body Scrub

If you haven't already heard of the brand Acorelle, it is a natural and organic skin and body carebrand originated in France.
I actually decided to try out this body scrub having read some good reviews of Acorelle products online. I thought it would work perfectly with the Acorelle Sugar Wax Roll - On (you can read my full review of that here) and they do work great together.

The packaging of the product is very clean and simple, which I really like.
I find the scrub* a really great product. It is very invigorating, as the product name suggests. It is gentle on the skin, helping to exfoliate it without making the skin feel rough. After using the scrub my skin feels so soft and clean. A great plus of this product is that it helps to remove dead skin cells. I love that this scrub actually helps to remove dead skin cells and exfoliates the skin - sometimes I find that the body scrubs I use do not have any of these properties which defeats the object of using body scrubs.

The scent of the product is lovely, it reminds me of honey and fruit. It is really refreshing and really helps to awaken the skin when used on an early Morning. You only need a small amount of product to exfoliate the skin, so I can imagine this product would last quite a while.

Where Can I Buy Acorelle Products?

The Acorelle Body Scrub is available at MyPure for £12.99, which usually is a little out of my price range for a body scrub, but it works so well with the Wax and I really liked the product. I think it is worth the money if you are planning on waxing or tanning, as this is a great scrub to use prior to both of those.

Recent Empties

I think this Months empties post should be renamed the gift set empties post as I have used up a load of beauty products I received in Christmas gift sets etc. 

Soap and Glory The Righteous Butter x3 (!): That's right, I have finished off three tubs of Soap and Glory's infamous body butter this Month. It has taken me absolutely ages to finish using the huge tub, and the little tubs have been sat in my vanity for ages with barely any product left inside, so decided to finish them all off! I do love this body butter as it is my go-to product if I want smooth and soft skin. I think I will stay away from the S&G section in Boots for a while though!

Tesco Indulgent Conditioner in Coconut: Just a basic conditioner here for every day really, it smells really nice but it isn't a brilliant conditioner and I wouldn't write home about it but we've finally finished it all off. I probably wouldn't rush out to get it again.

Lipsy Body Scrub: This is just a random body scrub that we had in our bathroom, it was quite a nice scent and it was a decent body scrub, not much all to say about it really. 

Sanctuary Body Lotion x2: More body lotions! These are lovely body lotions but we have far too many of them. it looks like one of them still has product left, which it does but it is stuck and I am just not that bothered about cutting it open to rescue it. 

Gorgeous By Gok Shower Scrub: This product is absolutely gorgeous. I love Gok and absolutely love when Boots sold his Christmas gift sets. I would definitely buy this again but I am unsure if they are available to buy any more.

Cussons Imperial Leather Soft Touch Moisturising Shower Cream with Jojoba Milk & Vitamin E: I have finished off another bottle of this beautiful shower cream this Month. It is becoming the 'norm' now for me to pick this up when I go grocery shopping as we both love the scent and it generally is a really good body wash. 

Hask Argan Oil Intense Deep Conditioning Hair Treatment: This was a little treat for my hair mid week last week. It was a nice conditioning treatment which made my hair quite soft  I did like it but prefer Hask's Oil Treatments rather than this conditioning treatment. 

Soap and Glory Heel Genius: I have finally used this up. It smells really fresh but I don't think it is a great foot cream to be honest! I have a few tubes of this and they always come in the big gift sets at Christmas but they are something I could live without.

Soap and Glory Sugar Crush Body Scrub

RRP £8 for 500ml

Being a huge Soap and Glory fan, I have grown a vast collection of their products over the past few years. A newer favourite of mine has to be their Sugar Crush products, which smell gorgeously of lime, lemon and brown sugar. 

I picked up a gift set recently in the sales which included a 50 ml tub of the Sugar Crush Body Scrub. I have owned this previously in full size and loved it, so I was glad to pick it up again and thought it deserved a mention on this here little blog.

I find this scrub to be a gorgeous wake up call for a shower in the morning, as it simply smells so fresh and awakening. The scrub itself is of a good quality, and feels moisturizing on the skin. It makes the skin feel soft and smooth, and the beads in the scrub aren't harsh like you can sometimes find in other body scrubs. It is great to use to exfoliate and rids of any dead skin on the body. 

I would recommend trying this out if you are a big fan of body scrubs and exfoliating and love a zesty, fruity scent.
