Great scrub!

I got given this for christmas but have wanted it for agggges but couldn't justify spending $15 on something which I thought I could easily make at home. I was so wrong this is way better than anything from my pantry.

The scrub smells divine! I had the original and it made my whole bathroom smell of coffee as well as my skin for ages after I used it. I found it best to use on dry skin as wet skin makes it dissolve and its less likely to stick. Just grab a handful and rub it all over.

The waiting is the hardest part. Definitely recommend doing this on a hot day as you will need to stand butt naked for 10 minutes. And standing is necessary!! I decided to sit the first time and little granules of sugar and coffee left little dimple marks all over my butt - and it kinda hurt. I recommended taking your laptop into the bathroom and putting on a youtube video that goes for roughly ten minutes. Helps you time it and keeps you entertained :)

Then simply rinse of in the shower and voila you will now have the softest skin in the world! The fancy almond oils and orange essence are what raise this above the simple sugar/coffee scrubs I make at home and I reckon the other versions of frank would be amazing too.

Your skin is left super exfoliated but really nourished as well. As for the claims about stretch marks and cellulite, I am yet to see any results on that front but the way it makes my skin feel is glorious.

The only downfalls are the packaging and the fallout! The packaging is ridiculous, its so hard to get into and gets so wet in the shower. I think a tub would be way easier to use but thats just me. The fallout is the worst though it infuriates me seeing half the product go to waste as its more of a loose scrub than a wet one.

I think in the future I would repurchase but I really wish they'd work on making it less wasteful.

itsnix1, its not just the packaging that is wasteful :( its the fact that its a loose scrub so no matter what you're going to lose a lot down the drain when applying! Its a bummer really.

Thanks for your review. I have also been wanting to try this for agesss! Do you think it would be easy to poor the scrub into a pot? Or would it stick to the inside of the packaging? I also hate seeing product go to waste! :)

Body Scrub

I was gifted this after I had my son and couldn't even bear to see my stomach. It was to the point i did end up crying one night because they were so bad. I will always be grateful for my friend for showing me this product. You're not paying for a bag of air and a little bit of product, you're paying for a product that (used daily) will last you well over a month. The thick coffee granules mean your skin is scrubbed but gently. I only ever used this on my stomach. After the first use my skin had never been so smooth. It literally felt as smooth as a new borns skin. You just grab a handful (or whatever amount you like) and scrub where you want to exfoliate. And just keep scrubbing and then leave it for about 5-10 minutes then wash off. I personally think the smell of coffee is gross but this product is bearable, then again it does have added scents of orange etc. The best part is it comes in a cute resealable bag, that way you can keep it in a dry place and not worry about it. This product will expire but paying $15 monthly or every second month for a new one is worth it. I do hate cleaning the shower afterwards...the scrub goes everywhere. I do get using scrubs makes people sceptical, even i didn't think this could work.What kept me using it was the soft skin and the fact after 3 weeks my partner told me just how much of a difference it was making. Knowing that all I did was leave the shower and mid way through getting dressed i noticed him staring (he never does) and i asked what and all he said was that the scrub was really working. A year later and i do still have minor stretch marks around my belly button (i have a belly bar so it was kinda hard to scrub there) and im definitely okay with wearing a bikini or tanning my stomach at a beach.

Tips: I used to scrub till my skin was pink, sometimes a little harder in worse areas (someone once told me that skin will repair itself once its damaged so scrubbing stretch marks will just wake up the cells around it, i don't know if its true) leave the scrub alone for 5-10 minutes then wash off. Then i'd moisturise just before i got dressed and the product surely has results.

Frank .. Lets get naked!

Frank .. You are life! Super smooth soft skin! I found it made shaving my legs alot nicer because of the oils (i shaved after i used FRANK) it made my legs feel even smoother then normal after shaving. I would 199% recommend this product! ITS LIFE! & It is an awesome way too help get that stubborn fake tan off when its time (:

Tips: Only use 2-3 times a week If its time too apply fresh tan use frank on day before then wash body the next day as the oils could stop the tan from sticking to skin evenly! but oils the day before help get skin soft and not dry (:

wonderful feeling!!

Body scrubs... most of them don't do what they say they are going to do. Soo to try this scrub to be honest I was a tad bit sceptical. Well all I can say is OMG!!! I am now hooked!! This scrub is amazing!! After suffering for much of my life with excema, I have FINNALLY found a scrub that does what it says!! My skin has never ever been soo soft in my life!! And with the added bonus of smelling like coffee, I was hooked from the beginning! One thing that is a downer is having to scrub the coffee granules off the shower walls, but hey for soft skin its worth it!

My skin felt soft and amazing

This is an interesting product for the uninitiated! A dry-ish scrub out of the bag, a gritty grainy scrub texture with an amazing scent that assaults the senses this one its definitely an effective scrub and perfect for pre tanning! I used a good couple of handfuls and massaged well and then waited the recommended 5 minutes before rinsing in warm water. My skin felt really well exfoliated and tingly, and incredibly soft. It retained a lot of the coffee smell too, which was nice. The only downside for me was that my shower needed a good scrub afterward, the slick oils left it a bit of a hazard zone

Love this scrub!

When i first purchased this i thought it was gonna be one of those hyped up products that didnt actually deliver as well as everyone said. But i was proven wrong. This scrub leaves my skin looking glowy, smooth and soooo soft. Its helped my stretch marks fade so much and my thighs are completely free of cellulite. It smells great, it isnt harsh on the skin like some other exfoliaters. The one thing i dont like about it though is you do have to wait a few minutes for it to dry for optimal results. If your in a hurry i would reccomend something else maybe but other than that i absolutely love it! :)

Tips: Focus on problem areas and scrub in circular motions. :)

Amazing body scrub

After going through scrub after scrub I was hesitant to jump on the bandwagon with Frank, but my decision to finally buy it was definitely worth it! The smell of the scrub being coffee is great, especially for a coffee lover. The scrub left my skin feeling like satin and was not oily at all. However it takes a bit of practice to not make a mess. The scrub is quite grainy and gets everywhere if you apply it outside of the shower or bath. I used the product in the morning and in the evening. The morning was a rather unpleasant experience as it was freezing getting wet and then waiting for the scrub to dry. Will definitely be buying more of this though as the soft skin was so worth it!

I jumped on the bandwagon

I resisted buying this for so long as I though it was just another craze. My sister had wanted one for a while and her birthday was coming up so I thought I'd get her one and order one for myself as well. I am so glad that I did. I paid AUD14.95 each and if you buy two the shipping is free. I like the packaging. It is a simple, resealable, brown paper bag with a quirky description.The packaging is water proof so I doesn't fall apart if it gets wet.

As soon as you open the bag you can smell the gorgeous aroma of coffee with a subtle orange scent.

Your body needs to be wet before you apply the scrub otherwise it wont stick. I use one handful to coat my entire body. Here comes the downside. You have to let it dry for 5-10 minutes. I turn the water off in the shower and stand in their but I get really cold while waiting and usually can't wait the full 10 minutes before rinsing it off with some nice warm water.

In saying that, I do still feel like I get good results. My skin feels so silky smooth after using and it is great to use before tanning as it gets rid of any dry skin. It has worked great to help clear my acne which has not completely gone but it has cleared up a lot. I also have excema on my foot which does benefit from this scrub but it has not cleared it away...yet (I'm still hopeful) Overall I am glad that I jumped on the bandwagon although you won't catch me posting naked Frank selfies on instagram.

Frank Body Scrub - Original

I'm sorry this isn't the rave review that I have been waiting to write. This product just doesn't work for me.

I bought this product straight from the frank website (frankbody.com) for AUD $14.95 plus $4.50 for shipping although if you buy two or more shipping is free. I love the packaging, just a simple bag that lies really flat for shipping but sits up nicely on the shelf in my bathroom. It closes really well at the top so I haven't had any moisture get into it or any spillage problems.

The product itself smells amazing. It helps that I do love coffee itself and its scent too. There is also this fresh citrusy smell along with it which is amazing. My problem with the scent is that most of the time I shower in the evening so I don't really want to be perked up just as I am going to bed.

Now here is where my real problem starts, using the product. They advise that you step out of the shower for a bit to apply, and onto damp skin for it not to be so rough. Cool. So I get in the shower, get my skin wet (sorry to be a bit graphic here), then step out to apply the product. Now my bathroom isn't freezing, but I'm naked in the cool air and I'm getting a bit cold here. I apply the product which is ridiculously crumbly all over my skin, and all over the bath I'm standing in (argh for more cleaning). It's lovely. Smells good, a good scrub, but not to oily. Here is my problem, I am now expected to stand in my bath with this on for the next 5 to 10 minutes for it to dry and do its healing properties on my skin. I'm sorry, it is too cold and too boring to stand in my bath with this on for 10 minutes (or longer!!!!). So for that reason I can't really say whether it does help with stretch marks etc. But in its defence it does make your skin feel ridiculously soft, and moisturised but not oily.

So in some ways this is a winner, a reasonable price, a good scrub, and not to oily. But for me it is just too messy, too hard to apply, and the scent isn't good at night. I won't be repurchasing.

I'm afraid my shower isn't closed in, it's over a bath so I end up cleaning the whole bath!

if your shower is closed in just use it in shower and turn the shower head the other way or turn water off.. its way quicker to clean up afterwards (:

Amazing!

I absolutely love Frank. I originally purchased it after seeing a lot of hype about it and now I can understand why. I apply this in shower (water turned off) and massage into my skin really focussing on my thighs, hips and stomach where I have some stretch marks. I leave the scrub on for as long as I have time to (usually around 5 minutes) and wash off. I won’t lie it does leave your shower messy but it is so worth it! It leaves your skin feeling incredibly soft and smelling delicious. I have been using this for months now probably using at least once a week and definitely have noticed my stretch marks have faded and cellulite lessened over time. I also use this very gently on my face and cleanse afterwards as is recommended if you have oily skin. It’s worth buying two and getting free shipping to NZ. I would also recommend the coconut scrub – equally if not more delicious!
