Body Exfoliant

I was happy to receive the LYCON Body Exfoliant in my July Discovery Bag because I suffer from dry, flaky and itchy skin. This issue is magnified in the wintertime because of the dry winter air so this scrub could not have arrived at a better time for me. The exfoliant comes in a see through squishy 200mL plastic tube with a flip-tab lid. I have kept my tube in the shower since I received it and there has been no leakage or water seeping into the tube despite getting wet and steamed up from my daily showers. The quality of the product is still as good as the day I broke it's seal so I'm pleased that the packaging of this product is sturdy and of good quality. The exfoliant is a lightweight cream with teal coloured bamboo fibres and jojoba beads. It has a pleasant but subtle grapefruit and lemon scent. I love that the citrus scent isn't overpowering or cloying. I take a generous amount of the scrub and massage it gently into my skin in a circular motion. I like that the creaminess of the exfoliant helps keep the scrubbing beads stick to my skin rather than falling out as it seems to happen with other scrubs. After exfoliating my body from the neck down with this scrub, I simply rinse the scrub off in the shower. It leaves my skin feeling soft and smooth without a greasy feeling. The exfoliant does a good job of sloughing off dry, dead skin cells and my skin feels soft and supple using this scrub. Its also nice at prepping my skin for a closer shave as it dislodges ingrown hairs on my leg. I find exfoliating with this scrub 3-4 times a week keeps my skin in optimal condition. My skin isn't as dry, flaky or itchy as before and body lotions seem to absorb better since I have been using this scrub. I was relieved to read that this scrub is plastic bead free, is not tested on animals and is Au made. I will gladly recommend this product for everyone and especially for anyone concerned with dry, flaky, itchy skin. I have seen good results with this scrub using it 3-4 times a week. The 200mL tube will last a while and I think it's worth the splurge for softer, smoother skin.

I absolutely adore this Lycon Body Exfoliant! It has a beautiful creamy texture and I love the fact that it is PLASTIC BEAD FREE!! It contains little bamboo fibres to help exfoliate and make your skin feel perfectly polished and ever so smooth! I love to use this product in the shower 1-2 times a week, it also works wonders if you use it before shaving. It comes in a clear plastic tube, which I really like as I can see exactly how much I have left. The flip top cap is also easy to use and convenient I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a lovely, creamy body exfoliant!

I received this body scrub in this month’s Discovery Bag. I haven’t been using body scrubs as much, this is the second body scrub I have tried. It buffs and removes dead skin revealing smooth, soft skin. It’s easy to rinse off and it’s easy to use while wet. The scent of this product smells very nice, with a mixer of grapefruit and lemons. It didn’t irritant my skin like other body products, but while I was trying out this product, I suffered from itchy skin. After using this product for three weeks, I realized that it doesn’t the product irritating my skin, it was the dry weather. I did enjoying using this scrub even with my skin issues and I will purchase it for myself, when I run out.

This is the first product I've tried from LYCON, and was introduced to me via the July Discovery Bag. I also note that LYCON is an Australian brand and cruelty free. The first thing I noticed on the flip-top tube are the words 'Plastic Bead Free' - this is very important to me, as I avoid all products that contain them. This scrub contains bamboo polishing fibres and jojoba beads for a very effective scrubbing action. The body scrub is beautifully creamy, and has a subtle foaming action. I have thoroughly enjoyed using it, as it both feels effective and creamy on my skin. It doesn't over-scrub or strip my skin of any moisture, while still leaving my skin soft and thoroughly exfoliated. It also has a deliciously citrus aroma, from both grapefruit and lemon. I've really enjoyed using this, and won't hesitate to repurchase - this is exactly how I like my body scrubs to be - microbead free, creamy and effective. This product is a real winner - highly recommended

The first thing that struck me with the LYCON Body Exfoliant was that very clearly on the tube it says that there are NO plastic microbeads. Instantly this product gets a huge tick, as we all know we should not be purchasing any products with microbeads. LYCON uses bamboo granules instead, which is brilliant. The scrub has a wonderful scent of grapefruit and Lemon which for me is another uptick as I love citrus scented products. The next uptick for me is on the packaging. It's a clear plastic tube that stands on its end. I love this type of packaging. I love to know exactly how much product I have left. I really dislike having to struggle to get the last of a product out of a tube or bottle and dealing with upended bottles falling over all the time. I found this product lovely to use. It had the perfect texture and the bamboo granules worked wonderfully to scrub the skin in a firm but not harsh manner. I felt like it was working well to remove all the dead skin while at the same time being gentle enough to not cause harm. Once in the shower and the exfoliant was washed away my skin felt lovely, smooth and hydrated. This product is brilliant to use before you fake tan as removing all those dead skin cells will mean that your fake tan will apply smoothly and will look more even. Its also great to use after shaving to help dislodge ingrown hairs. This really is a lovely product and at this stage I would have to say that it is my favorite body Exfoliant.
