The Body Shop Vitamin C Microdermabrasion

Swathy · April 27, 2018 · Leave a Comment

The Body Shop Vitamin C Microdermabrasion

So, last time I wrote about the products I was hoping would turn out great but instead they turned out to be duds, there were many scrubs in the list. All scrubs I have used till date were the physical ones with apricot or walnut granules which would tear the skin so I wanted something which would do a deep exfoliation instead of a superficial one. When I came across the body shop vitamin c microdermabrasion, I was not very hopeful but anyways thought of giving it a try! And, boy am I glad that I did it.

The result is often a very soft and glowing skin which feels and looks clean. It helps a bit with blackheads but does not remove them from the roots completely. Among all the scrubs I have used till date, this is my best.

The Body Shop Vitamin C Microdermabrasion Product Review

Price : Rs 1,750 for 100ml

Expensive? Yes! But, then I think we are all used to these prices now. So, moving on, I love the packaging. The orange color of the entire vitamin C range is eye catchy and just refreshing. The texture of the body shop vitamin C microdermabrasion is creamy and grainy and it smells a little typical, nothing citrusy or lemony.

The Body Shop Shower Gels – British Rose and Moringa

The Body Shop Shower Gels - British Rose and Moringa

Another bane of my life apart from finding the perfect moisturizer is finding a good soap or a body wash which does not dry me up. LÓccitane almond shower oil seems to be a perfect choice for such a body wash but it is too pricey to be used daily. I was definitely intrigued by the British Rose range of body shop and wanted to try it for myself. And, then, the prices were reduced or sale was on or some such thing so I got these two body shop shower gels for myself among other things.

Unfortunately, the body shop shower gels smell amazing but do nothing for skin except cleaning it. Leaves skin dry and if you do not moisturize, it gets all white and flaky which is not a pretty sight.

Forest Essentials Hydrating Sea Salt Crystal Rose Body Polisher

Forest Essentials Hydrating Sea Salt Crystal Rose Body Polisher

As mentioned in this interview, salt scrubs and sugar scrubs are the best for the body! The Forest Essentials Hydrating Sea Salt Crystal Rose Body Polisher is my first salt scrub. Before this, I had used one from the body shop which I loved a lot but it was more of a butter than a scrub. This one, however, is a scrub and a moisturizer as well because of the oil suspension. In fact, this is one of the easiest DIY’s to do at home as well. So, you know what is the next DIY you are gonna see!!

But, the best part of using the scrub, for me, is not the silky soft skin but amazingly fragrant skin which has a beautiful sheen to it.

Price : Rs 2750 for 300gms

Definitely expensive, especially given that I got hardly 10 uses from the jar. I do tend to overuse my products so may be you will get 15-18 uses overall but then the price is definitely on the higher side. The Forest Essentials Hydrating Sea Salt Crystal Rose Body Polisher is a truly luxury item and the ultimate skin spa as it claims to be. Save it for special occasions.
