As you probably know, Sephora is having their Spring sale. It's the perfect time to stock up high end staples or try a new product on sale. Unfortunately, I don't really need anything. The only thing I really want is that Viseart Dark Mattes palette and I'm not buying any more shadow until I use up at least 30. So far I've used four.....sigh.
Deep Steep claims:
Deep Steeps moisturizing Argan Oil Sugar Scrub gently exfoliates dead skin cells leaving smooth, radiant, polished skin.
This was part of Deep Steep's Holiday collection.Which I wasn't even aware they had until I saw it in TJ Maxx. I can't find anything online about it. It's the strangest thing! But they have three other scrubs that I also managed to pick up. But I decided to use this one first. I ended up paying $5.99 for 8 oz. But these are usually listed for ten. Which I think is a great price too!
Peppermint is a scent that I either love or hate. Not everyone does Peppermint right. Sometimes it ends up smelling like toothpaste (Lush mint soaps!). And I don't like toothpaste smelling products. I find I usually don't have a problem with the mint scent as long as there is some vanilla to take the edge off. I guess it works here because I ended up loving the scent. It smells exactly like Candy Canes! The smell is very fresh and invigorating. I LOVE the scent. Which is kind of surprising. It works wonders for a headache too!
Like all Deep Steep scrubs, it's very gentle. The sugar melts away a little too quickly for me though, which is why I tend to use it on dryer skin. And it leaves behind an oil layer, which kind of functions like in shower body lotion. I love it. It's almost like a two-in-one, but there may be some that don't like that.
I use this on more than just my body though. I've used it as a facial scrub. It's very invigorating and has a little tingle to it. Sometimes I like that. But what I really like it for is a lip scrub. It's very moisturizing and exfoliation at the same time. And if you happen to get a little in your mouth it's kind of sweet. Just keep in mind that it isn't the recommended way of using it, but I haven't had any trouble.
It's all natural...and vegan. Plus it's cruelty free, which is nice.
Ingredients:
Sugar, Peppermint Leaf Extract, Vanilla Extract, Organic Argan Oil, Shea Butter, Coconut oil, Rosemary Leaf Extract.
Overall, it's definitely a favorite. I just wish they sold this all year round!
