After I say this, you’ll know my thoughts on this scrub. Don’t waste your money on the Palmer’s original and get this cheaper alternative instead.
I found that Superdrug’s own cleans a lot better thanks to its smaller granules that are able to really scrub away at dead skin without being too harsh on the skin. My body definitely felt a lot buffer and smoother after using this compared to the Palmer’s original. The smoothness honestly lasts for such a long time, and I’m still able to feel how soft I am for up to a week after usage. I’ve read that you’re only supposed to scrub a couple of times a week to prevent your skin from losing too much of its natural oils, but I only scrub once a week. This is great for me because, by the time I start feeling my skin getting rough, it’s already the time of the week to scrub again!
The only downside to this scrub is that at the end of my shower, it looks as though I’ve washed off a day at the beach. The sink is always full of the fine grainy residue. But then again I found that was the same with the Palmer’s original.
Would I buy it again? Yes, yes, yes. I actually bought another two jars and kept them in the bathroom for the whole family – who by the way absolutely love it.
