But... at $21.95 CAD for 120g (and $35.95 for 250g), the price point was always a huge deterrent. The idea of rubbing salt crystals on my body (hell no, on my face) scared me a little... and if I ended up hating the product, I didn't want to have wasted $20 minimum!
When I went into LUSH a month--or, maybe it was two months ago--for a new tub of Love Lettuce (my review), I was really good with the usual polite declines of Do you need anything else? Do you need a new cleanser to go with your Love Lettuce?... until, I was at the till. DAMN YOU PLACED-NEXT-TO-CASH REGISTER-IMPULSE-BUYS!
I was sold on this 'Beach Box' summer promotion... Honestly, I was just sold on the fact that there was a small tub of Ocean Salt to try out haha... The Beach Box was $29.95 and came with a chuckload of stuff.
Ingredients:
Colour: this really pretty swirl of blue-green... chlorine-like haha
Scent: fresh, with light citrus
Texture: bigger salt crystals at the surface of the tub (as shown in above photo), and finer crystals at the bottom of the tub
Verdict: It was a meh scrub--I didn't find my skin particularly smoother or softer afterwards. Mostly, it just dried out my skin... usually, I don't have to moisturize my body after a scrub, but my skin was super tight and a bit scaly with Ocean Salt. I wouldn't re-purchase this.
