Review: Soap and Glory Flake Away Body Polish

My love for Soap and Glory beauty products is well documented in this blog (see this, this, this, this and this for some examples of my favorite Soap and Glory products), but I love how I can still be really, really pleasantly surprised when I try something new from them. Like the Flake Away Shea Butter Sugar and Peach Seed Body Polish (yep, that's the full name on my jar at least!).

Why do I like it? The smell! Yep, it's as simple as that, because the smell of this scrub (which is basically what a body polish is) is simply divine, possibly the best one out of all the Soap and Glory products I have tried so far. And that's saying a lot, since they all smell amazing! Their scents alone really are a reason to try these products if you haven't so far, as strange as that may sound. And I am picky with smells, let me tell you!

It's also really effective, it scrubs really well, and leaves your skin feeling super soft after you use it, which is what a scrub should do, but it still doesn't sting or irritate your skin in any way, like some scrubs can. So I love this scrub, I really do!

I still wouldn't say it's the best scrub out there, because the Fat Girl Scrub (reviewed here, if you are interested) actually seems to do wonders against cellulite besides being an awesome scrub, and I like multitasking products, so that's still better, if you ask me. But to be honest the Flake Away Body Polish smells better. So if you don't need anything against cellulite (lucky you!), maybe go for the Soap and Glory Flake Away Body polish instead...

Review: Soap and Glory Clean, Girls Body Wash

I find body washes are kind of hard to review, since it is hard to really see any big differences between them. But since I still like to use body washes, and prefer luxurious ones, I still got a small bottle of the Soap and Glory Clean, Girls body wash on Bangkok Airport (where you can actually pick up quite a few of the Soap and Glory products for good prices) to get a chance to try it out.

And I must say I like the smell of this body wash a lot! Which is not so surprising, I guess, since all Soap and Glory products smell wonderful, but the scent is so nice, it is still worth mentioning. I also like the texture of this body wash, it's rich and creamy, which makes it a pleasure to use, and also makes it last longer. I also like the fact that the scent stays on your skin for quite a while, and yes, this body wash actually does seem to make your skin softer after you've used it too! So I must say I can't really ask for much more when it comes to a body wash.

I would definitely get another bottle when given the chance, but since I have some other body washes already (including another Soap and Glory one) and Soap and Glory is not available where I live, I think it might take a while before I get another one. But still, I was definitely pleased with the first Soap and Glory body wash I tried!

Review: Soap and Glory Scrub of your Life body scrub

Ok, so it is time for another Soap and Glory review, even though I realize it might get a bit boring to only read Soap and Glory reviews all the time. But I swear, this is actually another great product, so you will want to read this!

This time, I tried a small version of the Soap and Glory Scrub of your Life body scrub. And like all other Soap and Glory products that I have tried so far, it smells absolutely divine! I must say the scent is maybe a bit overwhelming though, I used the scrub in the shower and the entire bathroom smelled like the scrub for a long time afterwards. This is not something that happens to me very often, since my bathroom is big, and has a window that is open all the time, but it did with Scrub of your Life! So if you don't like very strong scents, this scrub may not be for you.

The scrub is also a bit different from other scrubs that I have tried, with the exceptions of Bliss scrubs (that I love!), since it is not a pure scrub, but it has some soap in it too. This makes the scrub easier to use, but it may also mean it doesn't scrub as well as something without soap in it, I think, it makes it more gentle and less pure.
So I will say this scrub did not scrub as well as some other scrubs I have used, but I think it is perfect for people who want to use scrubs often, since scrubs with bigger grains and only salt or sugar for instance, may be too rough for that.

And the scrub was definitely nice to use! So I think I will be buying this again, a big version this time! (The one I tried was actually a travel version of the product, bought at an airport)

Review: Soap and Glory Face Soap and Clarity

It's time for another Soap and Glory review, and this time, it is a great product as well (like when I reviewed their cleansing cloths as well as their daily shampoo), namely the Soap and Glory Face Soap and Clarity, which is a face wash that you can use daily and is said to combine 3 different products into one, namely a scrub, a cleanser and a smoother.

I actually do not think this is a great face scrub, the grains in the face soap are too few and too small for that, so if scrubbing daily is important to you, you might want to look at another product instead, but other than that, I absolutely love the Soap and Glory Face Soap and Clarity, for the following reasons:

- It smells absolutely divine, much like all the other Soap and Glory products I have tried, but what I love about them is that they all have a completely different scent. However, the scents are all wonderful, and the Soap and Glory Face Soap and Clarity is no exception!

- It cleans your skin really well, which is the point of a face wash, after all, but it doesn't dry your skin out too much, and doesn't leave it feeling tight afterwards, something that is really important to me.

- It also seems to reduce the amount of blemishes I get, even though it is actually not a face wash for a blemish prone skin, which is a wonderful added bonus!

- It's a great value, since a very small amount of the product is enough to clean your entire face.

All of these reasons make this one of the best face washes I have EVER tried, seriously, so I will definitely be buying this again and again! Definitely recommend this face wash to anyone, no matter what your skin type is, since this face soap is supposed to fit all skin types.

Review: Soap and Glory Cleansing Cloths

So it's time for another Soap and Glory product review. And this is another amazing product, let me just start off by saying that!

See, I got these Clear Here Deep Pore Puryfying T-Zone Cleansing Cloths recently, and I actually did not have very high hopes for them, because I have tried similar products before, and been kind of disapointed. But these Soap and Glory Cleansing Cloths are so good, you can actually feel them working their magic on your pores!

The cloths are a bit thicker than most cleansing wipes are, which I personally like, and while scent shouldn't be a main issue for products like these, it is actually quite nice too, like the scent of literally all Soap and Glory products I have gotten my hands on lately! So that's a nice added bonus if you ask me.

Soap and Glory themselves say that the cloths contain something they call PORESHRINK-RS, which is not something I am familiar with otherwise, but I have to say these cloths, and perhaps this ingredient, really helped clear my pores wonderfully, which is exactly what I wanted from this product.

So if, like me, you like cleansing wipes (not everyone does, but I think it is very convenient if your skin is already clean but you want to clean it a bit more for some reason), these Soap and Glory Cleansing Cloths are definitely better than most similar wipes. I liked them so much I will definitely be stocking up on them. (And I live in a country where these wipes, or other Soap and Glory products are not even sold, so I have to buy them online)

So yes, I am definitely very impressed by this brand so far!

Review: Soap and Glory Glad Hair Day shampoo

So I have had a chance to try my first Soap and Glory products now, and I must say I am very impressed. One thing is for sure: I need to try more of their products, so it is a good thing I have several Soap and Glory products at home that I can still try.

The first pleasant experience I had with this brand was with the Soap and Glory Glad Hair Day Ultra-Shine Daily Super Shampoo. I loved it immediately because the smell was wonderful. I think I hadn't understood that all Soap and Glory products smell wonderful, and that this is indeed what makes them special.

Another great thing about the Soap and Glory Glad Hair Day shampoo is that you don't need to use a lot of it, a small amount is enough to wash your hair thoroughly, which is something I, with long and thick hair, really appreciate.

The Soap and Glory Glad Hair Day is supposed to make your hair shinier as well, and I can't say I really noticed any difference regarding shine in my hair. But in all fairness, I have very dry hair, so no other product has managed to give me great shine either. So if you are thinking of getting the Soap and Glory Glad Hair Day Ultra-Shine Daily Super Shampoo because you want shinier hair, I am afraid I can't really answer if this Soap and Glory shampoo can accomplish that or not, but if you are looking for a shampoo that washes well and smells GREAT, this is a great choice!

Shopped: Some more Soap & Glory products

I wrote about some Soap & Glory products I got, after having heard a lot of good things about this brand recently. (see a full list here)
But while travelling, I actually saw some more products at a Boots store, so I decided to try some more:

Isn't the packaging the cutest on all these Soap & Glory products? I just hope they work well too! Full reviews coming up, of course, when I have had a chance to try them out!
