I love scrubs. Face scrubs from my first St. Ives Apricot Scrub to my current fave Idealist Micro-D Thermal Refinisher from Estee Lauder, body polishes from the Body Shop, cuticle scrub by Avon, pumice scrub for the feet from H2O+ - I'm a junkie that will try pretty much any scrub on the market. That feeling of pure cleanliness is addictive.
So even though I don't really have what's classically defined as "cellulite" (thank goodness!), I picked this up from one of the warehouse sales last year.
I had stashed it away and didn't remember having bought this until I went to put away the extra body butter I had stocked up on from the Body Shop's 3 for $30 event. Instead of using the body scrub from the Body Shop, I thought I'd try this one out first.
The scrub itself is a translucent orange color with visible beads, and the texture is quite thick. The citrus-y smell is decent and not overly strong. The instruction was to rub and massage onto dampened skin - which proved somewhat difficult to do as it dries up quickly. A little more liberal splash of water helped spread the scrub out and the skin did feel very smooth after rinsing out with warm water. I can't tell if it's really effective in what it claims though, but I might as well believe that it helps prevent cellulite too!
