Texture & Fragrance

It has tiny beads and strawberry seeds in it which are great for exfoliation. The product is transparent red in color; it also has a sweet, delicious, strong strawberry scent.

Direction

Use in the bath or shower. Apply to damp skin in a circular motion, then rinse thoroughly.  You can use two to three times a week. 

My Impression

This product is a great option for a body wash with exfoliating properties. This product is pretty expensive for a body wash, but leaves it my skin soft, clean and moisturized. It has an amazing strawberry scent, which leaves my skin smells like fresh strawberry all day. I’m not much of a fruity scent lover, so I would not be repurchasing this product again.
