Beauty fans say a £16 body scrub "works wonders" on their skin in the summer months, with the "anti-cellulite" product making their skin as "smooth as glass".
The £16 body scrub comes as part of a skincare duo, which is currently on sale for £37 instead of £43, but can also be bought on its own. Sand & Sky's Byron Body Kit consists of their £16 Smoothing Body Sand and the £24 Wonder Body Lotion and also comes with a blue neoprene pouch that's perfect for holding toiletries.
The £16 body scrub is made using Australian Pink Clay, an ingredient that has been raved about for being able to detox and deeply cleanse the skin while also tightening pores. Differing from the norm, this scrub comes as a loose sand like texture which is scooped out rather than a wet texture more often found with body scrubs, it also includes biodegradable glitter to give a golden hour glow all day long.
The lotion has been raved about for it's 'Tasmanian Spring Water' scent which is refreshing and summery, reminiscent of a beach holiday. It contains three types of Hyaluronic Acid and mineral-rich ingredients to ensure that skin stays moisturised all day long as well as age-defying antioxidants plump fine lines and wrinkles.
According to in-vitro testing from Sand and Sky, the pair can help provide long-lasting hydration for up to 7 days, increase skin hydration by 43% and reduce skin redness by 45%.
One shopper said: "Absolutely love this stuff, it really does exfoliate well and once you get out and dried off you’re left with little glitter shimmers all over, like a goddess, so extra."
A second wrote: "I was sceptical of trying this, but I was surprised about how fun it was to use! It comes with a little scoop and it has a lovely citrus smell. I was also surprised with how soft it made my body and exfoliated really nice, and it even left a glittery like shimmer, I’ve not used a body scrub that made my skin feel so smooth before, I’m really impressed. The only downside is it can leave a bit of a mess in the shower, but it’s very easy to rinse, so overall I’m definitely repurchasing."
A third added: "I’m on my 3rd bottle of this. I love it. The glitter stays for over 24 hours. I don’t use it everyday bc you can still see glints of it after a second shower. It’s perfect for a summer date, sexy little shoulder sass and as a ingrown hair scrub. I’ve recommended this to so many friends."
A beauty buff who tried the £24 Tasmanian Spring Water Wonder Body Lotion on its own wrote: "I just love this body cream, the smell is so nice, I have eczema and usually struggle to find creams that work for my skin but this is amazing I have already repurchased another bottle!"
A second said: "Smells fresh and zingy; is easily absorbed, and leaves skin feeling smooth and hydrated. Love it." "After 2 weeks just ordered my second bottle as a back up . Don’t want to run out of it . My skin feels supple and healthy . Especially on my legs where my dryness started due to ageing process . My skin looks so much younger now - alive," penned a third.
Another impressed shopper said: "I absolutely love this product, my skin was so much better even after 4 days and I am going to carry on using it as it’s truly fabulous."
"Smells amazing. It it’s so soft on the skin and great for sunburn… makes it heel so much faster 10/10 recommend," wrote somebody else.
Those who have tried the £16 Australian Pink Clay Smoothing Body Sand as a singular standalone product have been equally as impressed. The £16 body scrub has racked up hundreds of five-star reviews on the brand's website.
One five-star reviewer wrote: "I’m in love with this product it has worked wonders on my skin and cellulite. My body is left clean and smooth with a lovely glittery shine. I will definitely we re ordering it again."
There are other scrub and lotion duos available on the market, such as Coco & Eve's Bali Buffing Sugar and Glow Figure Moisture Whip which retail at £26 each or Treaclemoon's Brazilian Love scrub and lotion although this takes much longer to soak in than Sand & Sky's lotion.
