However if reading is you thing, please continue.
After my (and surely every other Aussies') Instagram blew up with naked pictures of women covering their lady parts with a brown bag I thought I would check it out and let you all know if I think it is worth the hype WITHOUT the nudie pics, sorry guys.
I am of course talking about the Frank Body Scrub.
Frank is an Australian company producing (currently) two coffee exfoliating scrubs. I grabbed this one in "Original" however they do have a coconut and grapeseed scrub that I would love to get my hands on too in the near future.
Firstly I would like to say I admire Franks marketing tactics with their cheeky lingo and chilled out attitude, it really suits the target market and has had a great response!
Frank claims to help clear up cellulite and stretch marks, now I do not have cellulite and haven't really noticed a difference in my stretch marks but what I can comment on with this scrub is the difference in the texture of my skin!
After using this your skin really does feel like a "babies bottom" from all the delicious essential oils nourishing your skin! I have pretty dry skin and suffer from psoriasis on various parts of my body and I have definitely noticed how much smoother and softer my skin has become! It does help to rid the flaky patches of my psoriasis (but not get rid of it sadly, but nothing in this world has so far) however I found it can be a little too harsh on my elbows (my worse psoriasis spot) and can leave them a bit raw if I scrub too much.
Now on to the smell, I was expecting it to smell more like freshly ground coffee and whilst it does smell like coffee it does smell strongly of orange (due to the orange oil in it) which I am not really a fan of, now its not a BAD smell, it's just not up my alley.
Now is it really worth all this hype?
...YES! It really is a fantastic scrub and makes your skin feel AMAZING afterwards!
Have you used this scrub? What were your thoughts?

P.s. Two little tips for you, make sure you wash yourself afterwards otherwise you'll probably feel a little "buttered up" and make sure you use this close to the shower head as it gets EVERYWHERE!

I love this scrub! I don't use it regularly though, mainly when I want to fake tan or I need some softening! I can't wait to try the Coconut one!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to try the coconut one too!! I use this scrub like twice a week because I looooove it! :)
DeleteFrank has definitely taken over my instagram feed, but i love it, i completely agree with their marketing tactics too. I haven't tried the scrubs yet but after reading (and watching) your review, i definitely will be soon :)
