Review of L'Occitane Amande Delicious Paste by mapn
I picked this up at an airport a while back, because I had recently run out of my previous body scrub (Lumene, as I recall). I hadn’t read any MUA reviews beforehand, but I can surely understand why it’s popular. The scent is quite delicious, though just a tad too strong for me. It’s a very gentle scrub; the grains are very small, but they do work for my delicate skin. It also seems to be moisturizing; my skin feels quite silky afterwords (but I always use a body lotion after a shower). I love how it turns into milky liquid as it’s washed off. The huge glass jar is very inconvenient in the shower. You have to be very careful with it. However, I think it looks very cute and luxurious in my bathroom, and because it’s glass, you can recycle it :)
