If you can afford a luxury body scrub, this is the one to get.
A completely unique body scrub, it contains teeny granules that exfoliate skin without tearing (a tendency of cheaper salt scrubs). This is a spa-quality scrub at a spa prices ($62 for a large tub). The good news is you don't need a lot of it to exfoliate the entire body.
Pros
- Granules don't tear at skin
- Leaves skin silky smooth, soft and supple
- Lemongrass scent doesn't cling to skin in an overpowering way
- A little goes far, no handfuls of product needed here
Cons
- Leaves the bathtub a mess (described by one critic as fine coffee grounds)
- Doesn't come with a spatula, making scooping a bit tricky
- Pricey compared to most scrubs, this is a luxe product
Description
- Luxury body scrub worth the price
- Dark brown granules leave skin soft and subtle
- A little goes a long way
Guide Review - Red Flower: Ohana Gingergrass Bamboo Scrub
One of my favorite indulgences is a Korean body scrub You literally get all the dead skin scrubbed off you in what seems like layers until you're left with baby smooth skin. In an effort to mimic that effect, I've tried out several body scrubs for the bath and Red Flower's Ohana Gingergrass Bamboo scrub is my current favorite.
I got turned onto Ohana Gingergrass Bamboo scrub on one of my shopping sprees at NYC's C.O. Bigelow apothecary. The saleswoman assured me this was one of the very best new items on their shelves and a potential 'must-have' for readers. After using it for more than two weeks, I've found a scrub for life worth every penny. The chocolate-colored bamboo granules are subtle, don't tear at the skin (key for any scrub, whether for body or face) and the scent isn't overpowering. I was left with smooth, silky, soft skin.
What others are saying:
On Makeupalley.com, four readers have tried it. Three of the four loved it for it's foaming qualities, scent and it's softening effects on the skin. One woman found it disappointing. She said it didn't foam as she expected and left her tub a mess.
