  • The 75p Bargain Body Scrub In Boots!

    Sales. There’s something very satisfying and smug worthy about picking up items in a sale. Saving money is something no one should be ashamed of, especially in our current economy. Boots in the UK over the last few weeks have had lots of products in store reduced to clearance prices, including Treacle Moon’s Peace In A Flower Body Scrub. How much did it cost and what is it like?

    Treacle Moon’s Peace In A Flower Body Scrub
    Usual Price vs Clearance Price

    I couldn’t see the usual price in Boots for this product. But direct from Treacle Moon this body scrub is £3.00. Not expensive at all. BUT on clearance in Boots this cost me only 75p!

    Packaging

    This body scrub comes in a clear plastic flip top tube. You can see the product inside and the labelling is sweet, very in keeping with the name and fragrance of this product. On a practical level, easy to use and easy to store in any bathroom.

    Look, consistency & texture

    Treacle Moon’s Peace In A Flower Body Scrub is soft pink in colour with visible tiny brown specks throughout it. It’s squeezable, and comes out fluid but it’s not loose. The best way I can describe how thick it is is it’s similar to a body lotion.

    Fragrance

    Feminine, floral, very pretty with a slight powdery smell to it. Floral can be quite old fashioned if not done well but this would appeal to a variety of different ages.

    On the body

    Applied on damp skin, I used a generous amount of this to make sure I was covered from neck to feet. There’s enough scrub pieces in this to feel it on the skin, and for it to do the work its designed to do. Also the ‘bits’ weren’t too big where it could be rough and damage the skin. Very easy to apply and wash off, leaving the skin feeling lightly moisturised, and feeling soft and smooth.

    For me, the fragrance was the best bit, it’s beautiful. It made applying this scrub a pleasure not a chore. The fragrance is the perfect spring fragrance because of the floral aspect it has.

    Recommended?

    This is a good scrub! It does what it’s supposed to do to the body, its easy and enjoyable to use and the fragrance is perfect. I’ve used other Treacle Moon scrubs and I’ve found that at least one was more moisturising than this one. So if I could change anything about this product I would like it to be more moisturising during use and after. But for 75p it’s a no-brainer! If you see it at this price or less buy it! Even if you’re not a fan of floral fragrances, this would make part of a great gift for someone e.g Mother’s Day, birthdays etc.

  • More Bath & Shower Product Bargains In Boots!

    After discovering some amazingly priced bath, shower and body care products in my local Boots store recently, I couldn’t help visit another store to see what they had to offer. I wasn’t disappointed! I left with a heavier bag than I walked in with but spent less than £3.00! So what did I see, but more importantly, what did I buy?

    Ineos Sea Salt+Blue Lotus Body Wash

    In my local store they only had this in the Mandarin & Sandalwood scent. So it was nice to see Sea Salt + Blue Lotus as a fresher, cleaner and possibly more masculine scent alternative. 75p for 300ml.

    Treacle Moon’s Rouge Love Body Butter & Peace In A Flower Body Scrub

    I saw (and bought!) these when I visited my local store previously and it was good to see them available in other stores. These products smell amazing and are so good on the skin. Still at the clearance price I saw previously which was £1.25 for the body butter and 75p for the body scrub.

    What did I buy?

    Everything except the body butters! Slightly off putting to see a customer opening them all and sniffing them, so it was a no from me to buy these again! So I grabbed another body scrub for a friend, and everything else listed above for my son to use when needed. Overall, I bought (again!) another selection of super affordable products that can be used on a daily basis, so less than £3.00 well spent!
