The Body Shop's Wild Cherry Body Scrub

This body scrub is specially formulated for normal to dry skin and contains natural exfoliators made from crushed walnut shells and kiwi seeds that remove dead skin cells and stimulate your skin so that it is left smooth and soft. Cherry oil contains the natural antioxidants of Vitamin E and A and is a great hydrater and Brazil Nut oil leaves skin soft and smooth. This product retails normally for R110,00 from The Body Shop, but I got mine on sale for R27,95!!!! Whoop whoop!

This is my all time favourite body scrub from the body shop, sadly they no longer produce this and it really upset me when I made that discovery. I found that it had the perfect mix of exfoliating seeds in it to make it effective at removing dead skin while still being gentle on my skin. The scent is an absolute delight and was such a great reminder of the days I've been to cherry farms.

I am loving this body butter. The weather has turned to cold and dry here in Joburg and I can feel my skin change too. It has become drier and itchy and in desperate need for moisture. This body butter is perfect for quenching the thirst of my skin.

It has a divine cherry aroma. I find it so comforting in this weather as it smells like dessert. The cream comes in a tub and has a dark pink colour to it. The butter is very smooth, feels like thick lotion and spreads very easily. It is not super absorbent but I actually like to feel something left on the skin - it is like a protecting barrier. I wouldn't recommend using it in summer - I think it will feel a bit sticky.

I don't like that it has silicone ingredients quite high on the list but its just something I am prepared to live with because I love everything else about it so much!

I'm a sucker for anything cherry scented, so this immediately caught my eye when it was on sale. I bought this a while ago, so I've been using it quite a bit and it's permanently in my shower. I love the scent of this. I prefer the scent of the scrub to the body butter. In my opinion it's more cherry like. I also adore the consistency of this scrub, its all gooey and thick. The hard bits that do most of the exfoliating are kiwi seeds and crushed walnut shells. The combination is delicious.

I don't necessarily think this scrub does the best job at exfoliating dry skin, but I can't resist the smell and texture of it. It definitely leaves your skin feeling soft, but like I said not scrubbed. I use this in combination with my body shop mitt or my loofah and that helps stimulates the skin. I wouldn't buy this at full price, but on a sale it's a nice little treat.

I got this at half price ( R55) and am really enjoying it. The scrubbiness is medium but it really does the job. The smell is absolutely divine. My husband always raves about it when I call him to help me scrub my back :-). The tub will last you for quite a while ( I have had my previous one for at least 6 months using it every week). It is best to follow up with you Wild Cherry body butter to nourish the skin. The Body Shop products are just soo lovely to use!

I love the Wild Cherry Body Scrub. It works really well without drying out or being harsh on the skin. It leaves the skin feeling soft and silky and the slight tingly feeling makes me feel really "clean'.

It has a lovely cherry scent. So definitely not for ladies that don't like fruity scents. I still feel its worth it when purchasing it at the full retail price.

I think this is totally delicious! A bit like rubbing wild cherry daiquiri all over my skin!! Only not frozen of course ha ha. I really like the texture of this scrub.. its quite scrubby without being too harsh on the skin. Makes skin soft and smooth.
