Garnier Oil Beauty Scrub


Today I have a  great new drugstore find - I love me some of those! Garnier is a bit on a roll at the moment with their Micellar Water, Miracle Cream and now this lovely body scrub. I hoped I'd get a good replacement for Soap & Glory Flake Away which is a relatively harsh sugar scrub, however, this one is much more gentle and I use it as an every day body wash. I think it's fantastic.


The texture is like nothing I've tried before - it starts off as a gel with sparse big scrub particles and then it transforms into this oil-cream foam which feels so luxurious and nourishing that I feel no need for a moisturiser afterwards. The closest formula I've tried is Clarins' Pure Melt Cleansing Gel, except that's for the face and not a scrub. As I said it's a gentle scrub, more of an everyday version for me, but it still does its job. 

The scent is the same as the Ultimate Beauty Oil in a spray, so that musky floral scent that is quite pleasant.

Just as the oil, it contains Argan, Macadamia, Almond and Rose oil, but this one also has some shea butter, otherwise it's just regular soap with scrubby bits.

This is a pleasant surprise in the drugstore range, especially for those with drier skin. For anyone who loves the Ultimate Beauty Oil, it is a great matching body wash. If you can find it, give it a go, it's really lovely.

So far I've seen it in Müller for 4.99 €, in DM for 5.59 € and it's on offer on Boots website (£4.77) while Feel Unique has it for 9.3 € (currently sold out). There is also a matching lotion, but I haven't tried it yet. 

Have a great day!
