L'Oréal Paris Sugar Scrubs Nourishing Face Scrub

I was so excited to be given the opportunity to try out this new L’Oreal Paris Sugar Scrub!

The product arrived and it is a generous size container which is sure to last a good few months. I love the style of the container in which you can either use your fingertips to scoop out some product, or alternatively a scraper of some sort to scoop out some product. I love that you can literally use every last teeny bit of the product!

I guess the only negative for me would be that the packaging seems a little bit plain, nothing fancy. Something I would more so put in my bathroom cupboard than put out on display.

I received the cocoa scrub and it smells divine! The scrub is designed to tackle dull skin and is enriched with sugars to gently exfoliate and cleanse, it is a natural product and you can not only use this on your face in lips. I have tried this on my face and lips and my skin is definitely feeling smoother and makes me feel like my skin is glowing. Lips also are smoother and this provides a great base with lipstick to go on a lot smoother with less flakiness. The sugar scrub combined with some warm water just melts into the skin. I leave the scrub on my skin for a couple of minutes while in the shower and before washing it off with warm water and I feel I get better results from doing that.

There was definitely a noticeable difference after just the first use which I don’t get often with other skincare products. This has not caused my skin to break out at all either or left it dry. I have a normal skin type with slight dry skin in winter.

Definitely recommend and will repurchase.

Tips: Leave on for as couple of minutes while you shower before washing off with warm water for better results :)

I'm impressed!

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.

Tips: Use the smallest amount of water on your fingertips, otherwise the scrub melts away very quickly.

Pretty good scrub

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.

Tips: Use a small amount on your finger tips- make sure to test patch it incase you have highly sensitive skin like me, rinse well and enjoy

What a sugary gem!

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!

Thrice-weekly Treat

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.

Tips: Apply to a dry face in the shower for ease of application and easy rinse-off.

Superb scrub

L’Oréal is a brand I’ve used and loved many items in the past, so I was very exciting to be part of trialing the new range of sugar scrubs.

I really like the style of the container, dark brown with a different colored top- simple and sleek. Although I accidentally dropped it and part of the packaging broke.

My skin can be rather dry and uneven, so this scrub was a welcome for my skin.

The smell is lovely, quite subtle but smelling of cocoa. The texture is good - the granules just fine enough to be comfortable, but still do a good job of exfoliating my face. My skin can be rather sensitive, but this was gentle and no problems at all.

My skin did feel good and this scrub seemed to improve the texture, as there weren’t so many dry patches. My skin feels moisturized and soft after using this. It’s a really great scrub and it’s quickly become part of my skincare routine.

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.

Smells divine!

I originally bought this scrub after trying the kiwifruit variety for blackheads, but found that that one dried my skin out a little too much. This one is designed to exfoliate and hydrate so this sounded perfect for what I was after. This scrub smells like you could eat it, and as it happens, you almost can, because you can use it as a lip scrub! I loved this product as a lip scrub, I found that my lips (often dry and flaky in winter) felt smooth and hydrated. The scrub feels lovely on my skin, it is grainy and exfoliating, but then smooth and hydrating when water is added. I found my skin felt smooth and glowing after using this scrub. It also left my skin feeling hydrated. I would definitely buy this one again. It works great in combo with the kiwifruit one (I use that one on my nose for blackheads).

Tips: Don't forget you can use it on your lips too!

Cocoa softness

I have wanted to try this scrub ever since it came up for trial on Beauty Review. I found it in the supermarket and purchased it so I could give it a try. The scrub comes in a luminous rosy brown box. The scrub itself comes in a 50ml glass jar, with a rosy brown lid that matches the box. The scrub inside is brown, and it smells very nice, like cocoa. It is made with cocoa butter, coconut oil, and cocoa grains as key ingredients.

The instructions say to apply the scrub with dry hands to a dry face. You can also use it on your lips. I found the scrub easy to scoop out and apply. Once you put warm water on your face, the scrub starts to melt, and then you can rinse it off.

I really like this scrub. It left my skin feeling smooth, but also very soft and moisturised. It was great on my lips too, which have been feeling very dry over winter.

I definitely recommend this scrub for people with dry skin.

Skin pampering pick-me-up in the depths of winter

I had the pleasure of trying this Loreal Paris sugar scrub as part of a Black Box I received recently (I have silver membership). The smell is fab, it has a a rich chocolatey smell, and the colour is dark chocolatey too. The texture on my face felt really nice, just gently exfoliating and slightly grainy (the texture of sugar), and before I even massaged the warm water on to my face, the formula was starting to melt into my skin. It was very easy to wash off as well - I wiped it gently off with warm water and a flannel, and I didn’t need to go to too much effort to get it off. Straight afterwards, my skin appeared more luminous - and that was only after one use (!), so this product definitely lives up to its claims and does what it says it can do. My skin also felt smoother and softer immediately afterwards - ‘baby-soft’ indeed! I reckon this face scrub makes for a nice, pampering, pick-me-up for the skin in winter - particularly if your skin is feeling a little dry, as mine was at that particular point in time. I’d use this product again.
