Burt's Bees Citrus Facial Scrub



Hi all,


Sorry for the complete lack of posts this past month or so. I've been extremely busy in my personal life, and have recently changed jobs, so it's been a bit stressful and hectic to say the least! Time just seems to go so fast lately!


I thought I would share with you a product that I've been using almost daily for the past few weeks.....

''Burt's Bees' Citrus Facial Scrub is a natural sulfate-free facial scrub that contains finely ground almonds, oats, pecans and rose petals to gently exfoliate skin. An all-natural, plant-based cleansing complex removes traces of excess oil, dirt and make-up and sweet almond oil and glycerin moisturise for smoother, softer skin, naturally.'' source

This is dry and grainy in texture in the jar, but softens up the second that water touches it. Because of this, I find that it is best to get a bit out of the jar prior to wetting my face. That way it ensures that the products stays dry within the jar itself. The scent reminds me of Christmas, it's so lovely and  has a spicy orange aroma.


I tend to remove my make up prior to using this, dampen my face,  rub into my skin then rinse away. It really does give a deep cleanse without feeling at all harsh. My skin is dry and has the tendency to flake if I don't exfoliate enough. I find this scrub not only exfoliates really well, but it is also gentle enough to use every day. I've been using this almost every night and it agrees with my skin well.


You literally only need to use a tiny amount, as shown in the pictures above. This is enough to cleanse my entire face and neck area, so the jar should last a good length of time. I love how my skin feels and looks after using this, it not only looks radiant but also feels soft and smooth.


It's a fabulous natural scrub, I highly recommend!
