Refreshing

How To Use:


Massage a small amount into wet skin using an upward, circular motion. Rinse with warm water

Ingredients:

Aqua (Water) (Solvent/Diluent), Carbomer (Stabiliser/Viscosity Modifier), Sodium Laureth Sulfate (Surfactant), Olea europaea (Abrasive), Lauryl Betaine (Surfactant), Glycerin (Humectant), Hydrogenated Jojoba Oil (Skin-Conditioning Agent), Phenoxyethanol (Preservative), Sodium Hydroxide (pH Adjuster), Luffa cylindrica (Loofah) (Natural Additive), Parfum (Fragrance), Sodium Chloride (Salt) (Viscosity Modifier), Methylparaben (Preservative), Disodium EDTA (Chelating Agent), Fucus vesiculosus (Bladderwrack Extract) (Skin Conditioning Agent), Butylparaben (Preservative), Ethylparaben (Preservative), Linalool (Fragrance Ingredient), Butylphenyl Methylpropional (Fragrance Ingredient), Isobutylparaben (Preservative), Propylparaben (Preservative), Benzyl Alcohol (Preservative), Benzyl Salicylate (Fragrance Ingredient), Citronellol (Fragrance Ingredient), Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone (Fragrance Ingredient), Tocopherol (Antioxidant).


Price- Rs 795 for 75 ml

Packaging- It comes in an upside down squeeze tube.

The smell was soft and not overwhelming. It foams up pretty well and its grainy because of the exfoliating jojoba beads and olive stone granules which provide an intense massaging and scrub-y effect.This exfoliator does not overdry, nor does it leave my skin oily during the summer. It's just scrubby enough without being too abrasive and it's great as a cleanser, my face feels really clean and smooth. It's gentle on blemishes as well . I’ve been using this for about a month now. It helps keep my skin smoother and it does a great job of cleaning up excess oil Since I only use it weekly and a pea-sized dollop suffices, this product is going to last a very long time. It also helps in reducing blackheads and whiteheads.

The only negative point I have to say is that it did not help in reducing any pores.

Pros-

• Makes face clean and smooth
• Cleans up excess oil
• The beads helps in exfoliation
• Reduces blackheads and whiteheads

Cons-

• No reduction in pores
• Expensive

Rating- 4/5

Verdict- I use this once a week and love its effects and will definitely continue buying. The seaweed range from body shop is a must for oily skinned beauties.
