Scrubs -The Body Shop - Papaya Body Scrub

This is the first ever scrub I've tried - and boy did I pick a loser! Smells great, and is not very greasy (not as much as my usual oil-and -sugar routing) washing off quite well with soap. BUT it does not work as a scrub. No shiny, smooth skin at all - in fact, post the shower, I broke out into itchy bumps. I had to shower twice more and swallow allergy tablets to get rid of them. Totally frazzled at the end of it! Also, a tub is not a very clever way to package a scrub - it does not work for people who like to use the scrub over wet skin while in the shower - you just end up pouring water into the tub. Avoid if you have sensitive skin.

Soft is exactly what it is! Lovely smell, texture that's not too greasy on the skin. Leaves my tight/dry skin soft and smelling of roses. I've used this product for 2 years now with absolutely no breakouts or problems. I doubt it would suit oily complexions though.
