Scrubalicious

Ever felt like you are covered with a layer of dirt?

Then it's definitely time for some SCRUBBING!!!
The best way to get rid of that feeling is to scrub them all off right?

I will be introducing some of my favourite exfoliators i use to exfoliate my face and/or body~~
I am really excited to share with you girlies!
You will definitely love it! (i hope  XD)

This is my arsenal of SCRUBS~

As usual I will start with the not so awesome items.

Let's start off with my least favourite, or rather my most hated one.

FORMULA 10.0.6's ONE SMOOTH OPERATOR

No.1 reason i hate it is due to it's artificial chemical smell and it literally feels like im pouring some chemical X onto my face.
It has a really 'sandy' texture which is abit pricky.
Hate it so much i shall not waste anymore effort in describing how awful it is.

Dislike it so much i dont even want it on my hand.

Watch out for this in Watsons.. DO NOT be tempted to get it just because it is on sale or the packaging looks convincing..
One awful piece of toxic chemicals i would say.

Followed by 

TONY MOLY's LATTE ART CAPPUCCINO CREAM-IN SCRUB

SUPER DUPER CUTE packaging!!!
it looks soooo adorable!
too bad the functionality of it is 'meh'..

It has a really strong coffee smell! Great for coffee lovers~

The really creamy texture doesnt do much scrubbing at all.
Strange enough as i apply it on my face it will 'heat up' which is said to open up pores and unclog the pores better.
hmmm.. the scrubby bits are really scarce so i dont think it works well.

The only thing i like about this is the smell and the CUTE packaging.


Next would be

DOVE GENTLE EXFOLIATING body wash

Dove was really generous and gave me one huge ass sample (200ml) and they were so kind to send it to my door step.

Reason why i liked it:

It gives my skin this milky and moisturized feeling and it smells nice!

However, it doesnt really work well as an exfoliator because i find the scrub bits are not rough enough.
I know people would say 'dont use those which are too rough it will scratch your skin'.
Im a non-believer of this saying as I AINT SEE NO SCRATCHES wor~
Maybe i will regret in the future years but ME WANTS CLEAN SMOOTH SKIN ma!

Hmmm depending on your preference you may like this DOVE body scrub if you are looking for gentle exfoliators.

On to my EX-LOVER :D

Skin79's SWEET HONEY SUGAR

The name alone sounds like an over dose of sweetness!
And true enough it is!!!

This scrub is slightly on the steeper pricing range. $25 for 100ml
I actually repurchased another bottle before.

I loved this due to the huge chunks of sugar which feels really natural and has a sweet smelling scent.
However it does leave this sticky residue most probably caused by the honey content.
So i would need to use my usual cleanser after using this Skin79 exfoliator.


Another love of my life clawed its way to my heart and i use this Skin79 exfoliator only once every 2months.
Like going back to Batam to feed my other family. LOL



Coming to my FAVORITE TO DIE FOR SCRUBBY!!

It is none other than the St. Ives exfoliator!!

LEFT: For body + face (normally i use it for body)
RIGHT: For face

They come in a few different varieties which depends on your preference.
Go check them out in Venus or Watsons.

okok sorry for pimping them out so soon.

Reasons why I LOVE IT:

Grainy scrub bits
Apricot smell is not too chemical smelling
Immediately gets smooth skin after using it~
Best of all it's cheap!!!!! (around $11 for the huge ass tub and $8 for the tube)

I am already on my 2nd tub/bottle for both~~!!

See how grainy they are!
Although they are rough it doesnt feel like it is scratching my skin.

It feels damn 'shiok' especially when i use it to scrub my body!
It's as if the dirty layer on my skin is removed completely!!!
Also when i use it on my face it feels like it could remove any leftover make up on my skin. PLUS POINT ^^
However, the scrub bits tend to stick on my skin even after rinsing through.. so maybe you can lather yourself with your body foam/facial cleanser after using the exfoliator.

Trust me a few of my friends are already using it and LOVING it too.

MISC item

My trusty The Body Shop scrub balls~
I have been using this for 'n' years already, i use it for normal body wash (DOVE) and also even with the st. ives scrub! double the shiokness!!

To everyone who has never ever used a body scrub/exfoliator it is definitely time to do so!!
I promise you will love it too!!!


That's all folks.
I'll see you next time~
