Your London Wedding - Sep/Oct 2019 (Issue 67)
The latest body scrubs and butters are put to the test ▲ Oblepikha & Honey Scrub, £6.95/300ml, amazon.co.uk , lovelula.com “The exfoliating grains were bigger than the fine ones you usually find in similar products and I found this made it a lot more effective as well as being easier to rinse away. Massaging it into my arms and legs felt therapeutic and like it was working its magic. By the time I stepped out of the shower my skin was super-smooth and soft and has stayed that way ever since, even my elbows! Highly recommended.” – Kelly Andrews Hempz Citrine Crystal & Quartz Body Buff £16.99/200ml, hempzbeauty.com “I’m a great fan of this brand. This body buff was no exception. Enriched with pure natural hemp seed oil, it’s like a gentle workout for the skin. Not too rough or too smooth, it’s invigorating with a subtle zesty fragrance and gave me a lovely smooth all-over glow.” – Sarah Reeve ▲ Pure Anada Tropical Coconut Sugar Scrub, £16.50 340ml, liveinthelight.co.uk “The first thing I noticed was the summery tropical scent of coconut blended with pineapple. The second thing was its fine texture was just right. The moisturising oils in the product allowed it to glide over my skin effortlessly, leaving it feeling refreshed and buff.” – Claire Ridley ▲ Institut Esthederm Micellar After Sun Shower Gel, £19/200ml, lookfantastic.com “This face and body shower gel uses micellar technology to remove UV filters, sand, salt, chlorine and other nasties that can dry out your skin. Its gel formula lathers up brilliantly and stepping out the shower, my skin was left soft and hydrated – no mean feat after a day in the sun. I’ve been using it to add a little luxury to my daily routine and to help prolong my tan!” – Hannah Faulder ▲ Bioderma Atoderm Ultra-Nourishing Cream, £12.50/200ml, lookfantastic.com “I have dry skin that gets easily irritated when shaving and applying products. After just one use, my skin felt softer and looked healthier. The lotion smells amazing and a little goes a long way. After a week of use I haven’t made a dent in the bottle and anticipate it will last a long time. For the best results, I recommend applying it when you get out of the shower and your skin is still slightly damp.” – Melissa Barker ▲ Nature’s Kitchen Whipped Cream Coffee & Vanilla Body Scrub, £18.99/200ml, lovelula.com “The gorgeous coffee and vanilla aroma of this 100% natural scrub is divine – a perfect pampering treat. The particles gently buff and the rich butter cream formula left skin feeling silky smooth and smelling great!” – Danielle Harvey ▲ D’Alchemy Age Defying Body Cream, £47.86/100ml, lovelula.com “If you love a luxurious body cream with a strong aroma then you’ll adore this. With notes of warm vanilla and lavender, it nourishes and hydrates – perfect for those with sensitive skin. I was surprised how lightweight the consistency of the cream felt on my skin, you can easily get dressed straight away and it lasts all day!” – Olivia Gibson ▲ Rich Siberian White Body Butter, £5.25/200ml, naturasiberica.co.uk , amazon.co.uk , lovelula.com “This award-winning product has a fresh scent that I can only describe as clean with a hint of citrus. After one application I had no need to reapply for the rest of the day. Best of all, its purse-friendly pricing means I’ll definitely be buying it in future.” – Demelza Rayner ▲ TRIED AND TESTED 103
