Bio Skincare Exfoliating Strawberry Face and Body Scrub






BIOSKINCARE is a skincare brand from England. They have amazing skin care products and one of my personal favorites is the Strawberry Face and Body Scrub. I’ve been using it for the past 5 months now, in moderation. I really don’t want to run out of this body scrub because I can’t seem to find it anywhere in Mumbai.

What the product claims: 
A gentle but effective formulation for use as an all-over cleanser. The finely crushed apricot kernels remove all traces of dead skin cells and open blocked pores. Regular use will cleanse, invigorate and moisturize the skin.

Directions: 
Moisten the skin. Apply and massage gently, avoiding the eyes. Rinse thoroughly with clean warm water.

My experience with this scrub:

Let’s start off with the packaging first.
The packaging is a tub type which I’m not really a fan of, but it’s alright. I use a clean dry spatula to take out the scrub from the tub.

The fragrance is to die for. Trust me. Its like applying strawberry frozen yoghurt on your body, it smells so delicious; it makes you want to eat it. As soon as you open the container the fragrance just gushes out of the tub. LOVE IT. :D
The scrub has crushed apricot kernels that help you exfoliate your skin. They work amazingly on dry skin. I use this scrub mostly during dry weather conditions or winters since my skin is the driest at that time of the year.

This scrub has a very rich creamy formula, which might feel slightly oily during application. When washed off, it leaves the skin super smooth, moisturized and not greasy one bit. It leaves your skin with this subtle fruity fragrance that I really like.


The quantity in the tub is really good. It was filled to the brim when I purchased it. And even after using it as an all-over body scrub, it’s been 4-5 months now and the tub is just half. The shelf life of this scrub is 3 years from the manufacturing date which is great because the tub has so much quantity that would take forever to use up.


Price:
Approx. Rs. 250 for 300 ml.

Pros: 
  • Great quantity for the price, last for months.
  • Has an amazing strawberry fragrance.
  • Non-greasy, creamy and easy to wash off.
  • Leaves skin soft and moisturized.
  • Works great for dry skin.
  • Ingredient list mentioned on the container.
Cons:  
  • Tub packaging.
  • Might not be easily available in India
Rating:
4.75/5

Would I recommend this product?
YES! It’ll work great for dry skinned beauties in the winters and also has amazing quantity for the price.
