L'Oreal Paris Sugar Scrubs Nourishing Face Scrub

I have been keen to try as it has been well reviewed. I first applied it to dry skin and gently massaged it in, rinsing off with warm water. My skin certainly felt clean and tingling and I immediately applied serum. A couple of days later I applied to wet warm skin and this also worked well for me, in fact I like this method better. The fine sugar dissolved and I gently massaged it into my face which when rinsed off left it soft and supple and certainly I knew my skin was well cleansed. I now use this product twice a week at night and certainly feel the benefit after . My skin glows and obviously responds well to this treatment. After about 10 minutes "settling time" I proceed with my skincare regime.

Cocoa butter over your face

I didn’t buy it but 2 sample sachets were given to me. It is quite thick but melts easily with the heat of your fingers. This was gentle and made my skin very soft and you could see the difference satright away. It smells amazing and feels like you keep scrubbing every time. My skin was glowing without the need of the moisturiser but it is very important that we use a good moisturiser. I have been using it twice a week for 2 weeks those 2 sachets and will surely recommend buying it. The only thing I found it difficult was to take it out of the sachet because it was too thick and felt like the oil essential has made it difficult to come out in winters. I am not sure if it will be easy if bought the container. I have normal skin and this worked well on my skin, soft and glowing but not sure if this will work well on oily skin. My skin became a bit oily at places like nose, upper lip and chin. Overall it was good and I will use it again.

Tips: Twice a week of use is good and more frequent use will make the skin oily.

Smells beautiful

When I scooped this scrub out of the container it started melting on my fingers. I rubbed it onto my face and fell in love with the fragrance. It smelt good enough to eat! The texture was very fine and felt gentle to rub on. This is unlike other scrubs that have felt harsh on my face. I had to work on my dry areas a little longer because it is very gentle and left them dry after the first use. After using this sugar scrub for 2 weeks I found my skin became soft and subtle.

Tips: Even though it says to use it on your lips be very careful. If you get it in your mouth it tastes yucky.

Soft to the touch

I happened to get a sample of this product and decided to put it to the test today, because its only a sample size its only got enough for two uses so keep this in mind as i review it. On opening the packet im hit with a really lovely cocoa butter scent which im a fan of anyway so i have no problems smoothing this all over my face. The packet says to add water to soften the sugars but clearly my house is warm enough as the sugars are already melting on and into my skin. It feels quite greasy but not overly and a bit of exfoliation is going on as the sugars feel quite fine. Like a castor sugar feel. The first lot i put on you can hardly see that i have a scrub on so i put a bit more on and the chocolate colour comes through onto my face a bit more. Enough to make the husband compare me to trump lol. I give it a good rub in the problem spots and leave it on approx 15 minutes before i wash it off. It doesn't say this in the instructions but i figured it couldn't hurt. It comes off easily and my face feel so soft and like ive had a oil treatment. Not greasy but enough to make me wonder if i need to bother putting anything else on my face. To be honest its pretty close to babys skin soft. Im quite impressed and i love the smell its so nice. For the rest of the day im quite amazed at how soft my face feels and im really happy. Definitely off to buy the big size now as i can see it would be really beneficial for lips and im actually keen to try it on my hands to soften them up. I definitely recommend it :)

Lovely smooth face using this!

I was on the hunt for a new scrub and found this.. it's a bit more expensive for a small jar, however I've loved both the scent and the quality exfoliation it gives me. The sugars are very fine, which is better for your skin, some scrubs leave me looking like I have used sandpaper but not this one.

The only improvement I would love would be a squeeze container rather than jar with lid as I do like to use scrubs in the shower and it's a bit fiddly.

Tips: Great to get rid of flaky skin or lipstick remains using a babywipe

Miracle Product for Dry Skin

It's been a long couple of months. I've been in 30 degree Australian heat, 3 degree NZ winter cold, air conditioning, allergy inducing enviornment's and generally put my skin through it's paces. When I finally got a chance to stop and evaluate the situation, it wasn't good. The skin under my eyes was flaking, around my mouth was dry, I had texture forming in the cheek area and the overall appearance was one of dehydration. Time to try the Loreal Paris Sugar Nourishing Face Scrub! The smell and look reminded me of the dairy food chocolate yoghurts I had as a child. What could be more delicious than anything smelling like chocolate! Texture of the product was grainy but not harsh. My first application was pure success. A small amount rubbed in circular motions all over the face. A little water, continued gentle motions until dissolved, pat dry and oh my god! My skin was soft, flakes were gone, no tightness and a pleasant residue of smoothness left on the skin. I continued every couple of days. Fabulous. However, allergies kicked in again and created more flakieness around my eyes and mouth. I thought to myself "can this product spot treat?". Proof is in the pudding, so I tried a very small amount, very gently around the under eye and lip areas. A perfect result, removing excess dry skin in the morning prior to putting my makeup on. It turns out this product is a must have for me providing moisture, nourishment, exfoliant and brightness to skin that is not at it's best right now. I would definitely repurchase the product.

Couldn't see much difference *update:that changed

*Update: I have finally started to see the full benefits if using this product, the trial period I had to try it wasn't long enough for me to see the difference. This is now a permanent fixture in my cupboard.* I have to say after trying this for a few weeks I haven't seen much difference between using this scrub and any others in terms of moisture content or the texture of my skin. Being that this is a L'Oreal product and therefore probably more expensive than most I was expecting some sort of improvement by comparison in terms of the overall result, disappointingly not so. The smell was pleasant enough and the grains were a finer size than what I've prevoiusly used so I'm not sure if that contributed to it dissolving faster than normal. I used it every second day on my face and body, easy enough to use and while it spreads far it melts a little quickly to be much use for getting rid of the dead skin as I had to re-scrub my skin afterwards with a facecloth. I'm not sure this is something I would spend more money on to end up with the same result I've had previously for a cheaper product. I was left a bit disappointed with the outcome, I guess I expected more given the reputation of the brand. Maybe I needed to use more product or scrub for longer, I'm not sure, but I haven't had quite the result I was hoping for

Tips: Make sure you rinse it off the shower walls before it dries

Not too sure about this one.

First off the packaging is great, looks sleek and fancy.

The fragrance is amazing and almost made me want to eat it!

The scrub I feel definately did what it says, and once warm water is applied it melts and is soft and silky which felt amazing. However once I washed it off I felt like I had a layer of oil on my skin which I did not like at all. It just did not feel clean. Im not sure whether its my skon at 32 weeks pregnant or if my skin is just ment to feel like that after using this. This is why I have only rated it a 3/5.

Tips: Dont need much product, once it melts it goes a long way.

Body Scrubs next please L'Oreal!!

L'Oreal skin care has never really been on my radar, until they released their face masks last year. So when I saw the scrub I was super excited because the glass tub matched the face mask tub. And who doesn't love matchy-matchy in their bathrooms?!

L'Oreal's packaging game is strong - sleek, classy and it screams quality. Which for a sugar scrub is nice, because lets be honest, usually your scrubs come in a cheap plastic packet.

The Nourishing Scrub contains my favourite thing ever...cocoa. It smells sort of like cocoa butter and it definitely has that underlying rich, creamy texture. It was love at first open. Then I remembered it was going on my face. My face and cocoa butter are a hot mess. I once used a cocoa butter exfoliator and it ended in a huge breakout. Would this be too heavy and pore-blocking?

Upon reading the instructions I applied to dry skin and massaged all over - gently so as not to over scrub. A little goes a long way and and feels a combination of both refreshing and comforting. Once rinsed off my skin felt very smooth and very clean (but not stripped) and I felt a pleasant after-facial glow.

I've been using this every 3 days and I love it. I enjoy the immediate after effects so much I want to use it daily, but I feel that will be a bit much for my skin eventually.

Since regularly using this scrub my skin has felt more moisturised than ever before, I haven't felt the need to reach for my heavy night cream and have just been using a light moisturiser morning and night.

I LOVE this scrub and will be buying the others in the range. Scrub night has become the new mask night!

Tips: This one doesn't taste all that pleasant, so if you're using it on your mouth, be careful!

a nice gentle scrub

Firstly thank you so much Beauty review for selecting me for this trial, I love a good scrub and exfoliator so I was excited to try this.

The packing is a nice big sturdy glass jar with a screw top lid. The brown glass looks clean and crisp with minimal writing on the jar.

The product itself is a caramel colour and is a thick consistency, it reminds me of coconut oil. I can definitely smell the cocoa butter in it as the scent hits you as soon as you open the jar.

I scoop out about a teaspoon amount and spread it around my face and rubbing the sugars in. This is a very fine scrub and very nonabrasive. I do prefer the really abrasive ones for my dry skin but this is still nice. It does feel slightly greasy and oily on the skin.

Once I pat my skin dry my skin feels soft and moisturised from the cocoa butter. I did have break outs the first time I used it but it wasn’t too bad.

Overall it is a nice scrub and I would buy it again. i have been using this every second day and I think for my dry skin I am lucky to be able to get away with it.
