✨I really like the fact that this exfoliator is not harsh or really abrasive on the skin. It left my skin super soft and smelling amazing. It really does feel like a scrub that would be used on you in a spa! I love the smell of it as soon as you open the tub and it feels super luxurious. As with all the @templespa products I’ve tried, the packaging is really high end and looks amazing in your bathroom.

Finally after 2weeks + I am able to share my thoughts on the Temple Spa products that I was kindly gifted for testing purposes from both @GlamGeek & @TempleSpa which I cannot thank enough as I've fallen in love with this brand and get excited each day when I apply it!
Sugar Buff Smoothing Body Scrub - Firstly, I'm one of those people who rarely has time to make proper "me time" to relax in the bath as I prefer quick, fast showers so never really appreciated body scrubs before. The packaging is beautifully created with lots of thoughts put into it to give you an luxurious spa feeling in your home and I love that! Super easy to apply and a little goes a long way, believe me! No need to apply lotion/moisturizer after as this will leave your skin feeling smooth and silky for many hours after use (even days) The citrus is the perfect amount and not too strong or overbearing. I used to suffer from dry patches in certain areas but with this, I was able to use it without it feeling too harsh for my skin nor any irritations which was a mega bonus for me. It left my skin extremely smooth, brightened and radiant looking that was lacking for a very long time. I've had loads of compliments from my siblings how soft my hand/arms felt and they were super impressed too. I've used so much of it yet the jar doesn't seem to be nowhere near halfway! So it'll definately last you a long time depending how much you use that is, of course!
Will definately be repurchasing

The Temple Spa sugar buff smoothing body scrub was gifted to me for testing purposes. As with the other Temple Spa products I have testing, I love the luxurious packaging with it's a beautiful inspiring quote. I very rarely use body scrubs as I tend to end up in a mess. I have to admit. As with the Temple Spa In the Beginning balm cleanser, it appears that Olea Europaea oil has been used to maintain the fragrance which is highly prominent (if you are sensitive to strong scents then be cautious of this) as well as having other amazing benefits for the skin. Tocopherol, also known as vitamin E has been used to protect the skin from free radicals which is always an important addition to any skincare product.I am impressed that this is a sugar exfoliator and it achieves its purpose well and is easy to remove from the skin once exfoliation is complete. Sugar exfoliators are much more friendly to the environment compared to a lot of different brand products which used to use materials such as plastic as a way to add exfoliation to their exfoliators. I don't think the skin on my arms and legs have felt so smooth in years, this exfoliator was the answer to my skins prayers, removing the dull dead skin cells to reveal the beauty underneath and the scent is beautiful too. The product size of 6.5oz is generous making it a good value for money addition to your collection. I would highly recommend this if you are looking for a body scrub that actually achieves exceptional results.

I was gifted this by @templespa thanks to @glamgeek for review purpose. This is an amazing scrub one of my favorite scrubs I have tried, the packaging looks really nice and sleek. You get quite a big pot for the price and it has a cap under the lid to stop the scrub spilling which I love because it stops me from spilling and keeps the scrub in the pot. Its not a harsh scrub but feels a bit like soft sand but enough to give a nice scrub to the skin which allows it to genitally exfoliate your skin to help remove black heads without it being too harsh on your skin. I never had a reaction to this but my skin isn't sensitive so if you have sensitive skin id be careful. Using this my skin has looked really clear and my skin has started to look clearer and havn't broken out since using this product. I use this AM and PM to give the best results.
The scrub is also amazing for people who use fake tan, the pot has a lot of product so for your face will last a long time as you don't need a lot on your face to give you that feeling of having a facial. Paired with the In The Beginning Balm makes my skin feel like its just had a facial and feels soo nice, clean and soft. The scrub can be if used on the body works well to help exfoliate to help with the application of fake tan evenly. Would 100% recommend and would happily buy this again.

I was kindly #gifted this product from @templespa & @GlamGeek I love a good body scrub & always use them so was excited to try this one. The packaging is stunning, very luxurious looking. It costs £23 for 185 grams which I don’t think is a bad price at all. The scent is beautiful & very relaxing. It contains lavender, patchouli, clove, eucalyptus and rosemary essential oils and combined they make for a beautiful, relaxing scent. The consistency of it is thick which plenty of exfoliating beads in it. I suffer with dry and sensitive skin. This really helped my dry skin and in regards to my sensitive skin it didn’t irritate it at all or cause any adverse reactions. It contains olive, grape seed oil, fig, pomegranate & vitamin E all proven to be good in skincare. It’s so easy to apply. I simply massaged it into my damp skin and then rinsed off with warm water. After usage my skin felt so much more softer and smoother. It also felt more hydrated, moisturised & nourished. I really enjoyed putting this product to the test. I would definitely recommend it and I would repurchase it. Thank you again Temple Spa & GlamGeek for sending it to me.

I was so lucky to be #gifted this amazing product from @templespa and @glamgeekteam! Firstly the packaging again is high end, an ice sturdy circular tub with the product inside, the scent is not overpowering which is a good thing. The formula is one in a million- you can use it on wet or dry skin (I’ve tried both) and it deeply exfoliates your skin and dead cells from your skin which is great! It suits any skin type from oily to dry which is another huge bonus. I just massaged it into my skin in circular motions the same as the other two products. The fact it has vitamin e in it and grape seed oil which softens the skin is fantastic! I really enjoy using this product and think it’s made a huge difference to my skin. Definatley spa treatment but from the comforts of your own home. Thank you again. #templespaskincare #glamgeekteam #sugarbuff #gifted #amazing

After being gifted this product by @Templespa and @glamgeek I have used this a number of times and my skin has never felt softer. I don’t tend to use scrubs very often as they can be quite abrasive on my sensitive skin but the sugar buff has all the benefits of a regular scrub but without any of the harshness which is a huge plus for me. It has your typical ‘spa’ smell(if that makes sense) which, if I’m honest, I’m not a fan of but it’s also not overpowering so it’s not a dealbreaker for me. I used this mainly on my arms and legs and my skin was left feeling extremely soft and also glowing. I will definitely continue to use this weekly as a skincare treat.

I began using this product daily since being gifted it by @templespa for review purposes. Upon opening the lid the first thing I noticed was the beautiful scent, an aroma of essential oils such as lavender and eucalyptus. I decided to relax and soak in a bath and use this to buff my legs, arms and neck area for the first use. Despite being an exfoliate it is extremely kind to the skin, you feel the sugar rubbing against the skin but in a gentle way. As a person who often takes a quick shower and makes little time for me, this has changed my way of thinking. Unbelievably, I have never enjoyed taking a soak as much in my life. It genuinely was very close to being in a spa, the smell coming from the product and the luxurious feel of it really did create a calming experience. I have since had more soaks and have also used the product in the shower and I know it has worked because for the first time ever, when applying fake tan my neck, knees and elbows had no dark or patchy areas. As well as this my skin shines after use. Even more surprising is that this is an affordable high end product. I would certainly purchase it for myself and to gift others. I have to say I am very impressed by this product.

This scrub is beautiful. It smells Just like a spa, the smell is very familiar to me but I can’t place it. I like my body scrubs to be a bit harsher but I have definitely enjoyed this product. My skin feels soft and the smell sticks around for hours after. I was #gifted this by #templespa an #glamgeek and I would definite buy this product.
