As a big fan
of body scrubs in general, I was pleased when the A'kin Sandalwood & Sweet Orange Invigorating Body Scrub* hit my desk. Being a gel based body scrub
means that this isn’t as ‘scrubby’ as something sugar or salt based, but I
still find it gets the job done nicely and is perfect for those who like a
light gentle exfoliation, or those who perhaps scrub it up daily! I have used
this as a shower gel in a pinch and find it to be pretty rad at that as well,
which perhaps makes the semi-steep price tag slightly more palatable ($24.95
for 200ml) The scent of this is really nice, with essential oils making the sweet
citrus a nice natural scent that to my nose is slightly jammy. As with many
products available at Echolife it is sulphate and paraben free, so those
who keep their eye out for those details should be pleased with A’kin for that.
Ultimately
the scent is the saviour for this product, though I would much prefer a tub of
rough scrub in this scent. It is available for purchase from Echolife
(hooray for free shipping!) and I’d love for you to share your scrub loves in
