Soap & Glory Get Into The Smooth Gift Set Review


Hey beaut's!

I'm a HUGE Soap and Glory fan and every year when their Christmas collection launches in Boot's I can not wait to go in and see it all and this year's offerings certainly don't disappoint! I do have a couple of reviews on this years Soap and Glory gifts here and here but a few weeks ago I was actually lucky enough to win a twitter giveaway, and won the Get Into The Smooth Gift Set so I thought I'd give that a cheeky review too.

Within the Soap & Glory Get Into The Smooth Gift Set (£7.50) you get three of  Soap & Glory's best selling body buttercreams - Smoothie Star, Sugar Crush and The Righteous Butter all of which are in the 50ml size, perfect for travelling or popping into your handbag for any on the go moisturising. All of these body buttercreams have always been favourites of mine because they are luxuriously thick and creamy, so moisturising and nourishing especially if you have drier skin, which is why these are great for me because I'm a drier skinned gal and the scents are divine too and they really linger on the skin.
 My personal favourite scent is Sugar Crush, this one is sugary sweet and packs a powerful lime punch, its also loaded with Shea and cocoa butter, almond and coconut oil, a super refreshing triple whammy of lime oil, kiwi juice water, and smoothing lime tree blossom extract so as you can imagine it's a zesty one. The Righteous Butter is more girlie and has the original pink scent of sugar rose and bergamot which is lush, it has a very dry skin formula containing softening Shea butter and aloe Vera and again is perfect for the driest of skins. Finally, Smoothie Star is an almond and sweet vanilla scented body buttercream that has a lightly whipped formula and is loaded with as many moisturisers as Soap & Glory could physically pack in, it features pistachio oil, almond oil, Shea butter, cocoa butter and coconut oil, wowza that a lot of moisturisation there he he.
Overall I think this set is awesome and it would be the perfect gift under the tree or as a stocking filler for anyone who's either a huge Soap & Glory fan or if their new too Soap & Glory this set is a great way of being able to test out three products at once. 

Will you be buying this extremely moisturising set for anyone this Christmas? I'd love to know beaut's!

Soap & Glory Sugar Crush Body Buttercream | Review ♥


Hey beaut's!!!

I've got to be honest, when it comes to body care, I'm quite a lazy bum! However... when I find something I really enjoy using, that doesn't break the bank, that does exactly what I'm looking for and more its a whole different story, and with Summer on the way and the chance that I may be exposing more skin than usual I like to make sure I'm all moisturised and Summer ready and I have found something that I just adore... Say hello to Soap & Glory's Body Buttercream from the Sugar Crush Collection.  
Soap & Glory's Body Buttercream is part of the popular 'Sugar Crush Collection' which consists of a Body Wash £6.50, Body Scrub £8.00 and of course the Body Buttercream £10.50 which is what I'm reviewing for you all today. Firstly let me start by saying just how amazing the Sugar Crush scent is, it's so sugary sweet and packs a powerful lime punch ha ha. Also as the body buttercream is loaded with shea and cocoa butter, almond and coconut oil, a super refreshing triple whammy of lime oil, kiwi juice water, and smoothing lime tree blossom extract you can only imagine how nice it smells. Personally I think the citrus twist is great, it's extremely re-energising and wakes you up a treat when used in the mornings he he, I never find it overpowering or sickly either.
The body buttercreams consistency is extremely thick, actually luxuriously thick so it's fantastic for us girlie's with very dry skin, for knees and elbows and generally for any of us beaut's who want gorgeously soft, moisturised skin. I like to apply the body buttercream to slightly damp skin when I've just gotten out of the bath or shower, it just feels like such a treat and is now an automatic thing that I do straight after bathing, of course it feels just as nice to slather the buttercream onto dry skin and moisturises just as well but I just prefer rubbing it into my dry skin. As the consistency of the buttercream is so thick I did worry it would take a super long time to absorb into my skin but I was pleasantly surprised as it seems to just melt into my skin beautifully and absorbs very quickly, so thankfully you don't have to stand around for ages waiting for it to dry! The moisturising feeling doesn't wear off quick either, my skin honestly feels super soft and moisturises all through out the day and I always get hits of the Sugar Crush scent during the day to which is lovely.
Overall I absolutely love this body buttercream, its something I enjoy using and doesn't feel like a chore to apply and whether you use the Sugar Crush collection all together or separately it feels like such a treat.

Have you tried Soap & Glory's Sugar Crush Collection beaut's?? What product is your favourite?? I'd love to know.
