Review (4/5): It will leave your skin feeling soft and hydrated... down fall is how long they instruct you to leave on skin before rinsing.
I have sensitive skin. I also have these small bumps where my body hair is coming through my skin's surface. The bumps are only bothersome because of appearance. I have a hard time using exfoliators because they end up irritating my skin. I love the properties that Coconuts possess and that is why I decided I would give Baebody's scrub a try.
This scrub has a very pleasant smell of coconut and almond. It has a similar texture to sugar, although the scrub has a wet feel to it because of the oils that are in it. The directions say to apply to clean damp skin. So obviously you would want to do this in the shower for a whole body scrub. The downside, and the reason for giving a 4 star and not 5 is that once you have massaged the scrub onto your skin you are then instructed to let the scrub sit until it dries (5-10 minutes). This is a time frame that really can not be utilized to shave your legs, or be done while conditioning your hair, you get to just stand there being cold. Also, I am a mother of a 2 year old boy... I am lucky to get 5-10 minutes to shower! It is difficult for me to use this product as directed in order to get the maximum benefits; however, there have been a couple occasions that I have been able to take my time in the shower and wait the 5-10 minutes. The way your skin feels on the surface isn't changed much by waiting out the time, If you use the scrub your skin is left feeling soft and hydrated. If you are able to wait the directed amount of time it will be worth it. Not only will your skin feel soft and hydrated, but if you let your skin really absorb the oils in the scrub then your skin is going to feel amazing for 4 or 5 days. If I am going to be applying the scrub I don't bother using my body wash. Instead I just use some shampoo to get my body clean because your going to be exfoliating anyways and the scrub has all the moisturizing power you need.
I use this scrub about once every 10 days or whenever my skin is really starting to feel "thirsty." I paid $1.95 to purchase this Baebody body scrub due to a discount that I received so that I could use it as I would normally in my everyday life and develop an honest opinion about it. I then take the time to leave a review detailing that opinion on Amazon in order to help shoppers know more about the product. I feel that it is very important to be honest and unbiased when leaving a review because it can have an impact on the decisions people make. I too rely on reviews that other post on Amazon when I am looking into products that I am considering purchasing even if I don't intend on buying the product on Amazon. There is no better feedback than that from actual customers and that is why I participate in reviewing products. The Baebody scrub will leave your skin feeling amazing, for how long depends on how long you are willing to let it dry before washing it off.
