The Body Shop Tea Tree Squeaky Clean Scrub Review and Photos






     Hello Lovelies! Today I am bringing you a review on the The Body Shop Tea Tree Squeaky  Scrub. I did a review back on the Tree Tea Oil Facial Cleanser that you can find here, and I mentioned that it would be great if The Body Shop came out with a  tea tree facial scrub. When I went to the website during the black friday sale event, I was excited to see that they came out with The Body Shop Tea Tree Squeaky Clean Scrub and purchased it right away.

The Body Shop Tea Tree Squeaky Clean Scrub retails at $14.00 (3.3 fl. oz). The scrub cleans pores,removing impurities in the skin leaving the face feeling smooth and clean.



Pros:
Invigorating
Exfoliating
Leaves face feeling smooth
Texture


Cons:
None







The Body Shop Tea Tree Squeaky Clean Scrub has beads that help unclog your pores which  leaves your face feeling clean afterwards. If you look closer, you can see many little white specks.Those are the very fine micro scrubbers. This scrub is saturated with these fine micro scrubbers that leaves your face really smooth.  These fine micro scrubbers are great for those with sensitive skin.







Texture:
The texture has a sticky gel like feel to it.



Here you can see the  beads and the micro scrubbers are in there as well,you just can't see them.Hence the name micro scrubbers. 



Conclusion:

     I was going to do a first impression post and realized that my first impression on the The Body Shop Tea Tree Squeaky Clean Facial Scrub,I  felt disappointed. I figured let me give this product a chance before I really say anything about it. To be honest at first I did not like it. I felt that it did not have enough scrubbers and was not abrasive enough like other facial scrubbers are . The more I used the product the more I realized that it  has many micro scrubbers and  that they are very fine.I am so used to using facial scrubbers that have bigger scrubbers, so when I first used this product I thought it was not good.I was wrong. For those who have sensitive skin like me, I think this is great that the micro scrubbers are very fine because that means the scrub will be gentle on the face.The Body Shop Tea Tree Squeaky Clean Scrub is very invigorating as well. After I rinsed the scrub off ,my face felt really soft and  smooth . I went from not liking the product to loving it. This is my new favorite facial scrub.I am very happy that I gave The Body Shop Tea Tree Squeaky Clean Scrub another chance. I use this product three times a week and it is in a permeant spot in my daytime facial routine. I recommend  this product if you have sensitive skin, because the micro scrubbers are very fine and I found the scrub to be gentle enough for my sensitive skin. If you love Tea Tree products, I think you should try out The Body Shop Tea Tree Squeaky Clean Scrub.


     Hope you enjoyed my review on The Body Shop Tea Tree Squeaky Clean Scrub. You can purchase the facial scrub at  The Body Shop.(It is currently on sale  40% off!) :)

My Day and Night Time Skin Care Routine


As salaamu alaykum lovelies. I wanted to share with you my day and night skin care routine. It is pretty simple in the sense that I really do not use much products. I feel these products work well together to keep my skin looking clear, clean and keep pimples from popping up and saying hello on my face :)


Day Time Skin Care Routine


       
For my day time skin care routine, I start off with using Bath and Body Work's Tea Tree Facial Cleanser.This is the last thing I do in the shower. I apply this while in the shower because the hot steam  from the shower opens up your pores. Then I rinse with cold water to close my pores. 

I use the St. Ives Apricot Facial Scrub three times a week in the morning while in the shower as well. Scrubs are important because they remove dead skin leaving your face soft and smooth.

Afterwards, I apply Cetaphil moisturizing cream on my face. I have dry skin so this excellent for that. This cream doesn't make my face breakout which is another reason why I love cetaphil.


Night Time Skin Care Routine

,

As for my night time skin care routine, I start off by removing makeup from my eyes using a makeup remover. Next, I take the Cetaphil facial cleanser lather in up on my face ,wait a minute or two and rinse. If there is still makeup from my eyes after rinsing, I use a bit more makeup remover to take the rest of the makeup from my eyes.  I then apply clean and clear's deep cleansing toner for sensitive skin all over my face. This helps get rid of any foundation residue that I have left over. Lastly, I apply my go to facial moisturizer cream which is Cetaphil. 

Usually I will switch up products and take away an acne cleaner and substitute it with a different one. I never apply acne medication cleansers twice on my face everyday  
because it will make the my face even more dry and cause my skin to peel.

My father recently got me vitamin E gel capsules, so I may add that to my night time skin care  routine by poking a small hole in the capsule and applying a small amount on my face before bed or mix it with the cream. I will let you know how that works out.

There you have it lovelies. Hope you enjoyed my day and night skin care routine!
