Soap and Glory Collection and Review

Ok, ok, I admit it, I'm a bit of a Soap and Glory addict:


But I'm an addict for good reason. The products look pretty, smell amazing, are very reasonable and work brilliantly! I am yet to try a S&G product which I don't like and I would recommend them all :)

The Scrub of Your Life


This scrub is quite a mild one, as the pink beads inside it are rounded, leading to an overall gentler exfolation. I love this as a daily exfoliater, it makes my skin so smooth.

The Righteous Butter Body Lotion


This a lovely light moisturiser, which I find is great during the summer as it is absorbed quickly and does not feel very greasy or sticky. Apparently it contains fruit acids which help smooth skin too which is cool. It makes my skin feel lovely.

Glow Lotion


This is meant to be used as a lotion/moisturiser on the face, giving you a healthy glow and false tan effect. It contains "micro-bronzer beads" which pop when you rub them in:





I do like this, and it does defintely give a fresh radiant look to the skin. It is great for days when you just want to look natural and healthy. It is nothing like a tinted moisturiser though, as it provides none or very little coverage.

Scrub Actually


This is a slightly rougher exfoliator then the Scrub of Your Life, as brown sugar is used as the exfoliating granuals. It contains kukui oil, mango butter, apricot kernel oil and vitamin E. Again, another amazing scrub.

Hand Food



Ah, the holy grail of all hand creams. This is amazing. It moisturises very well and does not feel greasy at all. It contains shea butter, macadamia oil and marshmallow.  I always keep this is my hand bag.

Flake Away


This is described as a body polish, and I would say it is the strongest of the three scrubs I own, due to the sea salt within it. Therefore I use this at most twice a week. I love how it makes my skin feel and look after I get out of the shower. It manages to moisturise my skin as well as exfoliate, and I love it.

Clean on Me


This shower gel smells so gorgeous, and it lathers up really well. It is very moisturising. I often use it to shave my legs, as it is so creamy. It is 500ml and I have had it for around 3 months and I'm only half of the way through! You only need the smallest bit.

iFoam Ultra Creamy Body Wash


This is from a different range of S&G to the others, which are from the Original Pink range. This is from the Spa range, and contains antioxidant grapeseed oil, orange oil and uses an m-suds moisture system. I didn't know what the latter was either until I read the back; "When you massage, it releases moisture molecules". Pretty cool huh? It is, and it works!

Hair Supply


This is an intensive conditioner, which you can use as your daily conditioner or leave it on longer as a hair mask. It works so well, leaves my hair soft and shiny and does not weigh my hair down.

The Daily Smooth Body Butter


This is the ultimate body moisturiser. It is so thick but absorbs quickly. It makes my skin really smooth but makes it look sort of 'glowy' too. Could not be better in my opinion.

Heel Genius


They recommend using this foot cream at night, rubbing it onto your feet then covering with cotton socks. This works really well, but sometimes I use it just whenever my feet feel dry before going out.

So that is my Soap and Glory collection. I would recommend all of the above products. If you have any questions feel free to ask! They are available from Boots stores or Boots online: http://www.boots.com/en/Beauty/Skincare/The-Beauty-Boutique/Soap-Glory/
What is your favourite S&G product? Do you have any recommendations for ones I haven't tried?

  1. Ooo i have the hair conditioner and it is lush! I haven't tried a lot of the other products (my housemate has the clean on me shower gel which I admit to "trying" now and again!) but I'd love to try Flake away and Glow lotion!
