This brush was great for detangling those small knots in your hair that you sometimes feel when you run your fingers through your hair. It was far more gentle than doing that as it slides very easily through the hair and doesn't pull away much of my hair in the process. It's not at all harsh on the scalp, and left my hair feeling so silky and smooth. The only con was that it makes my hair static if I keep brushing my hair too much when it's completely knot-free. As you only need around 2 strokes to detangle your hair with this brush, and that many brushes make my hair static, I can't fault this brush. I really like it, and have been using it in the morning when I'm in a rush and want my hair neat.

This is a really excellent facial sunscreen for my oily and acne prone skin as it did not aggravate any of my current breakouts and it didn't cause any new ones to appear. The packaging says it's a water light texture, and it really is as the sunscreen is very runny. You have to be a bit careful that you don't pour out too much into your hand. When that did happen to me I applied the excess on my neck and it dried very quickly, leaving a nice matte sort of feeling. When applied on my face it absorbed well, though did leave a bit of a white cast. It wasn't too noticeable though. My skin's very oily and other facial sunscreens I use tend to leave my face oily about three hours later. This sunscreen, however, is terrific as it leaves a powdery sort of finish that left my skin feeling freshly washed. I really love it and the tube is massive and will last a long time.

I was a little wary of the packaging of this product as I thought it might not be hygienic, especially as I have oily and acne prone skin that breaks out at the slightest provocation. To counter this, I didn't apply the stick directly to my face and instead washed my hands immediately before using. I lightly dabbed with my finger tips and then blended on my face. I think this foundation was a bit too heavy for me since I have really oily skin. It rubbed off after 3-4 hours which I think is pretty decent, but I'd definitely love to find something more long lasting. I think this foundation stick would be better for someone with normal/combo skin instead of my really oily skin. I don't normally wear foundation and think this is great for me being such a newbie at it. So I've mainly been using this product on my tzone area and to cover a few acne scars. I think it provides good coverage for my scars and wasn't too heavy. It didn't block my pores either which I was really relieved as I try avoid wearing makeup due to my skin. Overall, I'll definitely keep using this product but for my oily skin it'd probably be best used in the winter when my skin gets drier.

I was excited to try this and really love it. It's very much like a hair conditioner for the body. I basically have my shower as usual then near the end I turn off the tap, take a few pumps of this and rub it all over my body. The texture is very soft (like hair condtioner) and it just glides on your skin because it's already wet. Then I rub it in for awhile and wash it off. Drying off shows the effects instantly and my skin felt so lovely and silky. I really, really enjoy using this as it's so simple and I can be so lazy when it comes to applying body lotion. It can leave your hands a little bit oily though and I try not to touch my hair cause I don't want to transfer it (it's really hard not to touch your hair when it's wet though and you're drying it.)

I don't really like this body butter because I found that it didn't moisturise my skin all that well despite the annoyingly sweet scent I had to put up with after application. Indeed, it just clung to my skin and clung to my pyjamas but there wasn't much payoff for having to put up with the smell. (I've used the passionfruit and strawberry one sas well and had the same experience). The products are nice enough to smell while you're in the store, but I just really didn't like it on my skin! I think I just don't like whatever base The Body Shop uses and so the fragrances don't go well with my skin. I'm sure other people enjoy it. Hence it's definitely the smell that's effected my view on these body shop butters. (I really love their scrubs though, especially the cocoa one!) But still, I think I'd be more forgiving if this body butter actually delivered on the moisturising aspect. I felt it no different to a regular body lotion, despite body lotions supposed to be more moisturising and indulgent for your skin. What I did like about this butter was that texture's great as it's really like applying butter to your skin (very, very smooth) but at the same time it took a bit of rubbing in for the product to fully absorb as it kinda just lingers there for a while. The butter's a nice orange colour and the packaging is nice and bright and so looked nice in my bathroom. What I will say about the scent is that it's not a generic scent. I guess I just didn't want to constantly smell it! I don't think this product is worth the price and there are better body butters out there.

I love exfoliating gloves and these manicare ones are top-knotch as they're great quality and don't wear out easily. You have too be careful with scrubbing too hard though as they can be a bit abrasive. I tend to use these gloves with shower gel and that's usually when I can't be bothered with a scrub which requires effort and can get messy. Gloves are really simply to use and all you have to do is squeeze some shower gel and then lather it up by rubbing the your gloves all over your body. The texture of the gloves is great as it does leave your skin feeling smooth and exfoliated. The only problem I have with these is where on earth to store them. I usually leave them on my soap rack to dry overnight and then take them out of the shower the next day as I don't want to have them constantly wet.

This is a product that's always in my shower/bathroom. It's for when my body needs some serious moisturising and hydration (like after I go swimming or in the winter when I'm too lazy to use body lotion since it's cold) . The scrub is incredibly oily and sometimes you have to mix the salt scrub back in with the oil as it separates. I was initially attracted to this product because it's a salt scrub and salt is great for back acne. I'm unsure if it actually helps with my back acne as after application it just leaves my skin extremely moisturised. Nevertheless I like this salt scrub as it won't attract ants compared to some sugar scrubs I've used (yuck!) and the texture is a good amount of grittiness that provides good exfoliation. The main benefit of this scrub is how oily and moisturising it is. I'm sure some people won't like this product as it's right to say that it leaves your skin rather greasy immediately afterwards. The smell and heavily moisturised feeling doesn't leave even when you've dried yourself off. The greasy feeling does sort of fade away in the first hour and I've found it leaves my pyjamas smelling of the scent (which is citrussy and quite nice). The results the next day, however, are the reason I keep repurchasing this product. My skin feels incredibly soft and hydrated, and obviously you don't need to apply body lotion right after you've come out of the shower as your skin is just so saturated with oils. There are a few issues I have with this scrub though: -The effects are immediate after you've applied it to your skin, so I don't know why it's called "one minute" as it's just a normal scrub that you wash off. -The packaging is a bit annoying as it's a twist off lid and so you're scooping it out of the tub as well as the risk of getting water into the tub. Plus your hands are oily when you're using it and then screwing the lid back on/general handling of the product just leaves the tub sort of oily all over which isn't pleasant for moving in and out of the shower when you're dry/cleaning the bathroom. However, I wouldn't want it packaged any other way as it just wouldn't work with different packaging. -Using oily scrubs like these means that you can't touch your hair or face (well I don't like to as my hair and skin are both really oily) until you've used some shower gel to get the oil off your hands. -My sister complains about the scent that stays in the shower after I've used it as it's really powerful. However a lot of products do this so I don't think it's too big of an issue. Overall I love this product as a replacement for body lotion and for when my skin's feeling grossly dry. I think others might find it a little too oily and this would probably be better off as a luxurious treatment. It's definitely staying on my repurchase list.

I love dry shampoos as my roots get oily pretty quickly. This dry shampoo was great as it went on clear, meaning I didn't have to vigorously brush my hair to make sure the product had all disappeared; all I had to do was give myself a little scalp massage and the product would do its magic. I was impressed by the results as other dry shampoos I've used tend to leave my hair feeling sort of dryish and my hair has a different texture from when I wash it with normal shampoo. This dry shampoo did a good job of not making my hair have that clean but chalky sort of look and left it sort of natural looking while giving a bit of volume. Volume-wise, my hair is incredibly flat and I think this dry shampoo did a job at giving my hair a bit more life, but like other hair products I've come across, the effects wear off due to gravity and just moving around during everyday activities. I did like how my hair looked immediately after using the dry shampoo. I'm honestly thinking of buying this dry shampoo over my regular one as I like how it left my hair feeling soft and textured in a natural way. The can size is very generous too compared to other dry shampoos and the smell is pleasant.

I'm really unsure why this range made my skin dry to the point of being able to see gross whiteness on my legs! It honestly felt moisturising as I was applying it. The smell was really divine but it was a pity that it didn't work on my skin as their other body moisturisers did.

I use this once a week as top-up body moisturiser and absolutely love it! The oil absorbs very quickly and the scent is so heady and gorgeous. It feels so nice and warm rubbing it in and it's very very moisturising. I love this product and has lasted a very long time. It's honestly very cost-effective and a great once a week treat for my body.
