Sanctuary Softening Thermal Sugar Polish - Relax

This scrub is available from Boots.  It contains organic sugar and crushed walnuts - an effective scrub having quite gritty pieces rather than being too smooth although it is quite runny. This is in the same scent as Warming Body Oils (which I loved).

I don’t like the scent so much in the scrub but this could be because I am using it in the morning rather than at night - I tend to prefer baths to showers in the evening.  It contains relaxing oils of Vetivert (helps calm the mind), Cedarwood (give clarity) and Labdanum (relaxation).

Wet skin and rub in the polish using circular motions.  The warming sensation  is really nice!

Spa like treatment at a fraction of the cost.  Leaves skin super soft and smooth.  Retails at £8.25.  Also can be purchased in 3 for 2 deals.




Have you tried this scrub? What's your favourite? I'm always on the look out for new body scrubs to try.

  2. Lord no! Nothing with ground up nutshells in it for me thanks. Way too harsh. I'm not a big fan of the Sanctuary brand either, but I know lots of women are.

  4. I haven't seen this Sanctuary range either. My favourite scrub is the Korres Watermelon Scrub. Great scent and just scrubby enough!

  6. I like the idea of the warming in this, guess that comes in pretty handy when it's cold! My fav body scrub at the mo is Lush's Buffy Bar which I need to get another one of because mine's nearly used up :( x

  7. This sounds good. I've not tried much Sanctuary stuff yet. I usually use Lush Rubrubrub, pairs up great with ocean salt!
