JustBe Happy Mini Hand & Body Wash & Lotion

I've been testing out the JustBe Happy Hand & Body Wash and Hand & Body Lotion minis* (15ml) (£6.50). They are the perfect try me size or to take on a weekend away.

I like that both are multi-purpose - they can be used on the body and the hands.  Essential oils of Pink Grapefruit, Lime and Bergamot are in JustBe Happy making it uplifting, reviving and the perfect pick-me-up.

The wash deeply but gently cleanses the body and hands leaving them clean and lightly scented while the lotion absorbs quickly leaving the skin nourished and smelling delicious.

The duo full size retails at £25 - it's on the wishlist!
