My Holy Grail!

If i could write a review that was a million word's long on how amazing this is, i totally would. Cause that's the bottom line!

If the smell isn't enough (i would totally eat it if i could), the exfoliating properties of it will make you float up to cloud nine after touching your skin!!

I tend to get quite dry under arm's also, from shaving, and this is so gentle yet so effective at helping remove it.

This is a simple review, cause quite simply it's just that good!

Tips: Pair this with exfoliating gloves and when you apply that fake tan there will be NO dry areas for the fake tan to cling to!

St Ives is the best for exfoliating

I’ve always been a fan of the apricot scrubs from St Ives as they are bursting with fragrance and do the job they are designed to do! So when the body wash version of an old favourite was released I had to try it.

The bottle is generous size for the price you pay; it’s a little more expensive than others on the market but the quality of the product makes up for that. Design wise its effective, with easy to squeeze see through plastic that allows you to see where you are, and get every last drop out.

Fragrance wise, it smells as if it’s been crammed packed with punnets of fresh apricots which is amazing for a wake up shower in the mornings. All the little kernels that remain inside the gel liquid rub your skin as you exfoliate away; I squeeze it onto a shower pouffe then create a soapy lather with the apricot kernels clinging onto the pouffe happily.

It’s not too harsh that it leaves your skin red or itchy, but it’s strong enough to give you a glow, what I call squeaky clean skin. I’ve found that the thick orange gel isn’t drying either, and it actually helps to keep my skin soft. I do tend to wander when it comes to shower gels and body scrubs/washes so I’m not loyal to the brand but I do know that if I need that bit of a pickup then St Ives is the best place to start, or if it’s on offer at the local supermarket it makes its way into the trolley.

St. Ives is the best. End of.

I love this body wash. Like the exfoliating face scrub, this body wash is amazing. It smells so good I could eat it (which to me says I absolutely should buy it!), leaves my skin feeling hydrated and smooth.

The granules in the formula aren't super fine, but they're fine enough to not be abrasive on the skin. I find it works really well on the elbows and the heels if I don't have anything finer before I fake tan.

The size of the bottle itself is good value for money as well.

Tips: I like to use with an exfoliating glove to really give my skin a good scrub, but works fine on it's own too.

Lucious

Lucious is how I would describe this body wash. It smells divine and makes my skin feel invigorated after use. I've purchased this several times and will continue to use.

St. Ives loves me.

I really love this body wash, it has a thick gel like consistency with exfoliating jojoba beads in it.

It gives a really gentle scrub doesn't scratch my skin. It gives the right amount of scrub for my skin and leaves the skin feeling polished and smooth and nourished. I think this would work for most people as a daily scrub, however if you had very sensitive skin, I would use is maybe every few days.

I also really like the smell it is light and sweet like an apricot, and it leaves me smelling great. The scent does not stay on the skin for too long.

The packaging is simple, nothing to right home about but does the job, and is easy to find in the supermarket. You can usually find this body wash on sale which is great. It's usually around $5.00-$7.00 depending on sales at the time. I usually pick up a couple when its on special.

I usually use it with a sponge or loofah, do my product lasts me around a month or two depending on who else is using it.

I would tell my friends to use this and I also like that they don't test on animals. Yay St. Ives!!

Tips: Always use your body wash with a sponge or loofah, you need much less, it will bubble more and last you a lot longer.
