Bath and Body Works CocoShea Cucumber Foaming Scrub - Reviews!!

We all know about Bath and Body works, USA and their products which are to die for. Today, I would be reviewing one of their newly launched scrubs for you all. Hope this post helps you in understanding the benefits of a good scrub and how you could get a glowing hyrdrated skin.

Bath & Body Works came up recently with three different scrubs under their CocoShea line :-
1. Cucumber 
2. Honey
3. Coconut  
My sister-in-law (Shilpi Pathak Devurkar) generously gifted me two of these - Cucumber Refreshing Foaming Scrub and Honey Sugar Scrub. Between the two of these, Cucumber one became my most favourite and all I can say after using it for a month is WOW. 
So, If you would like to know what made me feel WOW about this product, then please keep on reading...

What is a scrub and why it is a must have in our daily skin care routine?
Scrub is a beauty product which is used to deep cleanse or exfoliate the skin of the face; which is nothing but rubbing or washing your face with a granular substance to remove all the dead skin cells, blackheads and whiteheads from your skin; to make it feel youthful, beautiful and glowing. Unlike a regular soap or a cleanser, a facial scrub uses small particles or beads to get rid of the old skin cells and makes way for the new ones which in a process known as exfoliation. It is important to exfoliate atleast twice a week for a healthy complexion. Without a granular exfoliation, you can end up with clogged pores, which can block moisturizer from getting into deeper layers making your skin look dull and unattractive. Exfoliation is a must for any oily or a combination skin type person.

Overview-
CocoShea blends two of the nature's most nourishing ingredients:  vitamin-packed coco butter + rich, moisturizing shea butter - for the ultimate collection of skin-loving formulas. With smoothing pumice and cleansing gel formula, this product leaves skin feeling revitalized ,soft & smooth. And as we all know, cucumber is great for our skin.

What makes it WOW?
I am a combination skin person hence I always face issues with oily t-zone & blackheads-dead skin problems in that area. Scrubs have always been my savior and one of my must have product in my daily skincare regimen and this cucumber scrub is divine. I wish we could get such good products in India as well. I deep cleanse my face on a regular basis before I wear makeup and exfoliate my skin thrice a week. This routine has not only helped to keep my skin hydrated but also glowing.  

About the product - 

The product comes in a plastic squeeze tube with a lid and is very travel friendly. The transparent see through packaging enables to get a glimpse of the actual product inside the tube even before you buy. The texture of this scrub is very nice and attractive . Its a gel based scrub which has nice rough pumice which helps to remove all the unwanted cells of the face and gives a natural looking skin. The consistency of the gel is neither too thick nor too watery just the way it should be. Best part about this scrub is that it lathers very well. The colour of the scrub is light mint green. It has a very powerful and a very refreshing cucumber scent which I loved the most. So, if you don't like the smell of a cucumber then this product may not work for you. 

This product is not very harsh and dense unlike St. Ives Apricot Scrub which takes away all the moisture off your face and hence leaves your skin smooth, clean and glowing even after using it thrice a week. So, Bye Bye Dullness, Hello Glowing Cheeks!!

Price -
$13.50 which is approximately Rs. 945/-.

The only con I found about the product is that it may not be very effective for extremely dry skin as its very gentle but it might definitely work as a very good daily cleanser specially in summers. 

My verdict-

This magical product leaves your skin smooth, soft and nourished just the way I always wanted it to be. Hence, it definitely gets a thumbs up from me 👍👍
If you are on a hunt for a good scrub then this one is just a perfect one! Go grab that now on www.bathandbodyworks.com

I just wish that Bath & Body works soon starts shipping their products to India or open their store in India as well. I feel blessed to have such great relatives in states who pamper me with such great products. Cant thank my sis-in-law enough for this♡♡♡.
