Lush Ocean Salt Face and Body Scrub Cleansing lime, coconut and sea salt scrub. Ocean Salt is like taking your face on a trip to the seaside for an invigorating splash in the water, then cleansing and refreshing it with lemon, grapefruit and lime juices. Fresh avocado moisturises and softens the skin, while violet leaf absolute calms and nurtures. Use it on oily skin every day and use it to refresh dry skin once a week.

Lush Ocean Salt Face and Body Scrub

Anyone who knows me knows I love a great scrub. Be it for the body or face, I just love scrubs! This one product ticks both face and body boxes for me.

It comes in the typical Lush scrub pot which I find convenient and practical. The lid screws off easily when you have wet hands.

The actual scrub is packed full of sea salt and you can smell citrus. So, so refreshing. I used it wet on my face as I thought it may be a bit too harsh on dry skin. It left my face feeling silky smooth and really soft.

I tried it dry on my body and found it very effective in removing dead skin. It rinsed off really well and left my skin feeling awesome.

The pot is one of the ones where if you bring back 5 empty and clean ones back to Lush they will give you a free face mask. Such a wonderful company.

Tips: Try a patch test on your face first, it might be a bit harsh for sensitive skin.

very scrubby

Scrub a dub dub! I received a 70g pot of this in the Christmas gift pack, i was excited because I love a good exfoliator, I have dry skin that sometimes gets a bit flakey. So a good exfoliation is always a must.

The idea of having sea salt in it had me in 2 minds firstly it could burn my skin and dry it out more or leave it looking amazing. I know whenever we have been near the sea and I have been swimming in the ocean my skin looks great afterwards.

The black tub is the perfect size for this scrub. With a wide opening easy to scoop out the right amount. The scrub is an awesome colour with it being a mix of white, green and blue. And it is PACKED with sea salt. The texture of it reminds me a lot of creamed butter and sugar. I can get a real citrusy lime scent coming from this scrub and it is so refreshing.

It is easy to apply and scrub a dub dub around your face. But remember to go easy on it as it is so packed with salt I could imagine if you went in guns blazing you could rip the first layer off your skin. I prefer to do this in the shower as the wee bits of salt go everywhere!

Once I wash it off all my worries disappear, my skin looks fresh and clean it didn’t burn or feel rubbed raw also the wee flakey bits of skin had managed to come off. All in all a great scrub for me and my dry skin and would happily repurchase

Get a fresh face:

Big chunks of salt in this scrub. Leaves your face silky smooth. Lasts reasonable well too. Good scrub with salts instead of beads so it's a lot better for the environment. However if you have sensitive skin beware that it contains perfume and colours in it which may aggravate your skin.

Tips: Scrub softly as the salt does the work for you. I only use this once a week as it's coarse.

Fresh and effective.

I was given a massive sample size of this product when I went into Lush to look for a new exfoliate. At first I found it harsh as it seem rough on my skin. But afterwards I found my skin felt so soft, clean and smooth and also refreshed. I have found I just need to be a bit more gentle with the way I use it than I have with other products. Its not the nicest smell and taste pretty damn salty as you would expect but the results are worth that.

Tips: It can be a little on the rough side so be gentle!

BEST SCRUB EVER!

This is seriously the best scrub you will ever try, and the best part? Its all natural! Lush is one of my favourite brands because they aren't really expensive and all of their products use natural ingredients! This scrub will not disappoint, I am on my third tub already!

Ouch!

I went into lush looking for a natural exfoliator to replace my old one (it has the little plastic beads and I wanted to be better to the environment). I have very sensitive but dry skin so I need something that will be rough enough to remove all the dead skin but gentle enough that I'm not screaming in pain. I asked the sales assistant what he would recommend. I tried this in store on my hands and it was fine on them but when I used it at home on my face it was much to harsh. I did also try it as a body scrub but even then it was to harsh for me.

Tips: I think if you don't have sensitive skin and like it a little rough lol then this would be a great way of exfoliating and removing fake tan if you were so inclined!

A nice scrub for the body only!

I was given a Lush voucher for Christmas so decided to try this little number out after reading online reviews about it.I applied it to my face first and oh my god! talk about harsh! I did not like how rough it felt on my skin so i would not advice using it for the face unless you can tolerate harsh products.I found it very good on my body although a little harsh still but it did leave my skin soft and smooth and the scent was quite refreshing too.Personally I probably wouldn't buy this again as it is quite pricey for what you get and I believe there is better alternatives out there that can do the same job and that are also natural based.

Very scrubby!

I love Lush products, but I wouldn't buy this again. That is not to say it is bad or didn't work - rather it was a little to harsh for my liking. I couldn't use this on my face - my skin is rather sensitive - but it did work on my legs. It is a little rough and scratchy to put on but it does leave your skin feeling smooth.

It has a really nice summery, fresh scent and a decent size pottle. It is a little on the pricier side, but you can always ask for a sample before you buy!

The main reason I wouldn't buy this again is simply because I found a Lush product that ends with the same results, but is not as harsh on my skin (the Buffy Bar) and is a little cheaper. This is a great product for those who love intense scrubs - those with sensitive skin, I would give this a miss.

Tips: I am not a fan using this on my face. This is not suited to those with sensitive skin - it may be a bit too harsh.

Incredible Scrub!

I have so many good things to say about this scrub that I don't even know where to start!

Firstly, I adore LUSH and it's amazing approach to ethical products. They don't test on animals, they use ethically sourced ingredients, they make everything by hand...the list goes on. And on. I feel like by buying LUSH you're not only supporting a cosmetics company, but an organisation that fights for ethics in so many different areas.

The scrub itself comes in the awesome recyclable packaging typical of LUSH. When you open it up the scrub is thick and creamy, with sprinklings of coarser sea salt on top. It smells incredible - very fresh and tangy!

Some people might find this quite a coarse facial scrub, but as a body scrub it would be perfect. I personally use it on my face, however, and LOVE the incredible smoothness of my skin straight afterwards. SO nourishing and refreshing. I even let the boyfriend use some as well, and he loved it too!

Tips: Save up five of these pots from LUSH and you can trade them in for a free face mask.

I want it

I haven't bought this as it's a bit out of my price range but I tried it in store. It works really well. It hurts a bit to put on as it is quite rough but it made my skin really smooth.
