You all know by now that I am a huge fan of organic products. With shorts weather coming up, my legs need a little TLC in regards to exfoliation. I was sent the Smoothing Body Scrub from Tata Harper to refresh my dull winter skin. This body scrub makes my legs (and my whole body) soft and smooth while also being free of synthetics, artificial fragrances, fillers, GMOs, and gluten. Oh, and it smells like a field of flowers.

First Impressions

I was already pretty confident that I would love the products from Tata Harper. Companies that always have sensitive skin on the brain always have my vote. The scrub has a grainy texture which I assume is due to the sea salt and organic sugar in the scrub. There is a red-orange tint to the scrub which corresponds to the flowery smell that lingers while the container is open.

Review

The first time I tried this scrub I decided to try it in the shower on my wet skin. Since I have sensitive skin, I always try products on wet skin first. If a product irritates your skin while it is wet, dry skin is going to be even worse! With this scrub, a little goes a long way. Just a small amount on my pointer finger and I am able to massage my whole leg. The key to this scrub is to really take your time and work it in. Besides releasing a heavenly aroma (to me it smells like roses) the scrub, much like the S.W Basics Exfoliant, begins to melt
into your skin.

The second time I tried the scrub on dry skin. When they say for maximum exfoliation results, they mean it. My legs felt unbelievably smooth that I could not keep my hands off of them. I used this right before going to an event and I received many compliments on the natural glow of my skin.

Whichever method I used, I had no irritation!

Why You Should Try It

Exfoliation is often a beauty product that many people neglect. People assume exfoliation is only for those with dry flaky skin but the reality is–everyone can benefit from exfoliation. Exfoliants help clear your skin of dirt and grime of daily life while also buffing away dull skin so new, healthy, and glowing skin can shine through. If you are self-conscious about bumps on your skin and wonder how people get that natural glow, it is often from regular exfoliation. This Smoothing Body Scrub is versatile depending on your skin and mood. While as a quick weekly refresher in the shower, or a long massage on your dry legs before a night out, this scrub will leave your skin glowing, smooth, and healthy. If you are looking for an exfoliant but don’t know where to start, the Smoothing Body Scrub is a good choice.
