Heather's Thoughts on ~ Tesco's Skin Boost Shower Polish

Last week my mam bought Skin Boost Shower Polish while she was shopping at Tesco's. I don't know if this product is very new or has just hit the shelves or anything but I thought I'd do a reveiw!

this is me, modelling the skin boost shower scrub! :P

Skin Boost Shower Polish is an in-shower scrub that gently exfoliates dead skin cells from the body.

It contains Pomelo and Olives. Pomelo is probably a fruit few of you will know well so I’ll explain!

It’s a citrus fruit from Southeast Asia and is normally light green or yellow when ripe.

It tastes like a sweet grape fruit but is normally larger than a grape fruit.

But the main fact is that like its relative the grapefruit the pomelo fruit contains sugars that help to scrub away dead skin cells! And on top of that it contains vitamin C which as we all know is good news for your skin, gums and teeth! Of course you wont be eating it so your gums and teeth wont benefit that much but your skin certainly will!

Along with Pomelo fruit this scrub also contains olives which contain vitamin E! Vitamin E is one of the nutrients that helps reverse and protect against the damage UV rays do the skin! Which is one of the main causes of Aging in Skin!

I used this scrub using a fluffy shower puff and immediately despite the lack of the large beads you usually find in a shower scrub or exfoliator the dead skin came away straight away – hmmm…. Maybe I had a LOT of dead skin and that’s why.

I found that this scrub really worked really well and left my skin soft and smooth all over. It smelled lovely and was well concentrated so I didn’t need to use that much!

I personally love love loved this product and will use it 'til the very last drop!
