3 Of The Best Cruelty-Free Body Scrubs
Content writer Paisley Tedder shares her favourite body scrubs for the winter months
1. Nature’s Kitchen Whipped Cream Coffee & Vanilla Body Scrub, £18.99, lovelula.com
A little goes a long way with this softening scrub. It’s a delicious combination of pure Italian coffee beans and vanilla pods that smells and feels amazing on the skin. I’d recommend using it three times a week in the shower, concentrating on dry and cellulite-prone areas.
2. The Body Shop Coconut Body Scrub, £15, thebodyshop.com
A cult favourite amongst beauty lovers, this creamy exfoliator smoothes and refines, and the coconut scent is wonderful. It lasts for a few months, too, so you’ll definitely get your money’s worth.
3. Bramley Exfoliating Body Scrub, from £8, bramleyproducts.co.uk
Bramley is a firm favourite of mine for its recyclable, and often biodegradable, packaging, but this body scrub is the cream of the crop when it comes to the brand’s products. The fragrance is a beautiful blend of fennel, mint, and rose, and it leaves skin feeling silky-smooth.
