I am a big lover of Rituals products, so when this shower scrub from their Ritual of Sakura range arrived in the April Glossybox I did a little happy dance, I was particularly pleased as it was from a scent range that I hadn’t sampled before.
The rituals mantra printed on the packaging is ‘celebrate each day as a new beginning’ and that has never felt more poignant than in current times. So I thought it was the perfect product for a pick me up today.
I was pretty eager to jump in the shower and give this a try and see how it stacked up against products from Rituals ranges that I had used before.
Infused with cherry blossom and rice milk this is highly scented product with flowery and feminine tones. If you are sensitive to strongly scented products then this might be one range that you want to stay away from.
The very fine beads are made form volcanic particles and gently glide across the skin exfoliating perfectly without the need to apply too much pressure. Working the product in circular motions it removes any dry or flakey skin with ease and without causing irritation to the skin underneath.
The Rituals website explains that this product that transforms from an exfoliant to a cleanser. I however didn’t experience this. It definitely felt like an exfoliant and it worked pretty effectively as just that.
In my haste to get out of the shower I didn’t rinse around the bathtub as I would normally following any normal pampering sessions. Queue an eager husband ready to jump in the shower and he fell flat on his arse, he slipped on the exfoliant residue that had left a film on the base of the bath.
I definitely recommend this product, it smells delicious and the scent stay on the skin so you keep getting subtle whiffs of the product throughout the day. It leaves your skin soft without causing irritation, my only comment would be don’t be lazy like I was and make sure you clean your showers out after you use this so you don’t have a shouty, bruised husband.
