Get fresher, smoother and softer skin with fig powder, pumice, peppermint oil. lemonade tree liquid, orange waterjuice™ and vitaminballs™ (A,C,E). Scented with our new Fruitigo™ fragrance.
The Reality
I'm just going to be honest and come out and say I really don't like the Soap & Glory Pulp Friction Foamy Fruity Scrub. The reasons being I don't like the foamy texture. If you like an exfoliator that foams up then this may be the product for you but for me I prefer a scrub to be a scrub and I don't need it to foam up.
In terms of the ex-foliating abilities pulp friction does an okay job. However I prefer a scrub that's moisturising and leaves that oil residue on your skin, which this one does not do and it's not particularly moisturising either.
In addition I'm not a fan of the scent of this product. I do like the original Soap & Glory scent but this scrub has the "fruitigo" fragrance. I find scents hard to describe but to me it smells like figs and yoghurt mixed together, which I don't like.
Furthermore the ingredients list of the pulp friction scrub scares me! There are just too many chemical names that I don't understand. I have been actively paying more attention to the ingredients of the products I'm buying and seeing big ingredients lists filled with chemical names that I don't understand reinforces my decision to move towards natural products.
Ingredients aside, the product doesn't work for me and that's not to say it won't work for you, personally I won't be repurchasing.

The Packaging
I love Soap & Glory's fun bright pink packaging. I like that the scrub comes in a squeezy tube, so I don't have to dip my hands into the product. The packaging is the only thing I like about this product.
The Price
Boots: £8/250ml

thanks for your review :)
ReplyDeleteI love that you guys are being honest when you review products. I too have changed to vegie beauty only, which was quite difficult actually. I mean first looking through all the products I had, checking if they're veggie (which is complicated too) and if not, find a substitute. My biggest losses so far have been Aussie hairproducts and Max Factor mascara :( In Europe it is no longer allowed to produce cosmetics and beauty products with help from animal testing which probably makes it a bit easier here.
ReplyDeleteYou guys totally inspired me to do this and I am very glad! I will probably be doing some posts about it in the near future and if you don't mind I would love to link to your blog since you sort of gave me the idea in the first place.
