L'Oréal Paris Sugar Scrubs Nourishing Face Scrub Review

I haven't used any L'Oreal skincare for a while but decided to splurge when I was given some gift vouchers. I have dryish mature skin so selected the nourishing one as I didn't want it to strip all my essential skin oil. I have always found scrubs easiest to use in the shower after cleansing, and this one was a good example of that. A solid screw lid means it can't squeeze out like a tube and I had more control over how much I used. I have found the key to using scrubs is to not rub hard and this one was no different. Using my fingertips I applied several blobs to my face and massaged them in. I always find the area around my nose difficult so did that last. The product didn't sting my skin or leave it red like many scrubs have in the past but I felt it was still quite a hard texture. It left my skin lovely and soft after rinsing off though. It didn't strip my skin either so that was really pleasing.

My friend recommended I try this scrub. It reminds me of a exfoliator scrub but less rough. It smells quite nice and feels like it removed the dried up skin on my face. Bit expensive but I was lucky enough to be able to use my friends.

I received this as a gift and until then i had never even seen it around. As soon as i opened it i could instantly smell it , it smelt divine. The scrub looked very solid to me and that might be because it was such a cold day? It was very easy to use and felt so nice to rub into my skin. I like using this before i do my makeup so i have a smooth base ready beforehand. I don't have any nice scrubs like this one so i do love using it.

The smells a tad overbearing. I love coffee but this is an extremely bold in ya face wakeup haha. It's great, because it's sugar don't use it IN the shower.

I was really impressed with this scrub. The soft fragrance is simply delicious. The texture is relatively fine and I loved the way it just melted away as I was using it. Most scrubs leave my skin feeling tight but this left my skin feeling clean, smooth and almost like it was cushioned with moisture which is great for my dehydrated skin. As an added bonus the fact you can use it on your lips is fantastic. I definitely noticed my skin was more radiant, fine lines less obvious and my foundation sat beautifully smooth on my skin. I'll definitely be buying this again.

Sugar scrubs are so good to use on all skin types but this particular scrub worked well for me. I have mild acne and it didn't irritate it at all. This beautiful product comes in a perfect box with all the instructions right there to read. Ahhh the smell is just divine, felt like liking my fingers but don't do that! Super easy to use, the prize is a tad high for the size but a little goes a long way so it's still a win. Texture of the scrub was smooth with a grit, nothing to harsh which is why I loved it a little more to. Overall it's a great little gem to keep your skin at bay feeling litrally baby bum soft ! You can use it on your lips to by the way and works just as well but don't rub to hard.

I was thrilled to bits to get on this trial. I love sugar scrubs and usually make my own so I was excited to try this out. It comes in a sturdy glass jar with a screw on lid. Looks quite simple but luxurious.

My skin is very dry at the moment so the word nourishing really appeals to me. First the smell, omg it smells like chocolate! I love it, it is not overpowering at all. It is quite thick and a rich brown so also looks a bit like chocolate, unfortunately it does not taste too good! Lol that was an accidental taste test when I used it on my lips, it left them super smooth though.

I like to use this in the shower, I wet my face a little and scoop a bit out then massage around my face, the sugar is so fine so it is not too harsh which is nice, it gives a nice light exfoliation then it melts into my skin, simply rinse off and boom, beautiful soft skin!

It does not leave my face feeling tight at all and it feels quite moisturised. I have sensitive skin and got no burning or redness. It is even gentle enough to use everyday as that is what I have been doing.

A gorgeous sugar scrub which I would purchase when it runs out. Definitely recommend for ladies with dry skin. Love it!

My skin has been crying out for some extra nourishment, but it took using this product to realise it.

Like most L'Oreal products, this came in a beautifully packaged box. Just the colours of warm chocolate and gold suggested I was in for a bit of pampering goodness. At first, when I pulled the jar out, I was a little disappointed as it is very plain and didn't have the instructions on the back as I'm used to, then noticed after a day that they ARE actually there, hidden away under a clever peel-away sticker which seals back once you've finished reading. Love that. I also grew to love the look of the plain jar in my shower. It is clean and the large type makes it quick to recognize. The flat lid is great for stacking in my beauty cupboard too, so great for storing if you're not going to keep it in the shower.

You apply the product to a dry face and with dry hands, then add warm water to fingertips to 'melt' the grains of sugar and rub gently. This wasn't so much fun over the sink, as water ran down my arms, so the next couple of times I used it in the shower. The scent is divine! Chocolate butter....mmmm. It's also recommended to use on your lips, which is fabulous. I highly recommend doing this. My lippie has never looked as good as it has this week! Once I washed it off with warm water, I was surprised at how moisturised my skin felt. I hadn't tested not applying moisturiser afterwards as I fear my skin drying out and going patchy, but it certainly felt like you could get away without moisturising afterwards. I might be brave and try this on the weekend.

All in all, I really adored this product, and with the RRP being so reasonable, this will be a staple in my cupboards.
