Hey girls..Recently I am into scrubs. But most of them are creamy and thick.I was desperately searching for a gel kind body scrub off lately. Since it's summer here and the Hyderabad climate takes a worst turn every summer. Temperature is not less than 43C and this time it is expected to reach 49C. I am worried about it. Anyway, the summers are the worst enemies of the skin.The strong UV rays damage the skin the most. We all use sun screens to protect our skin but how many creams you may use on the skin, ex foliating is the key to remove the dead cells and tan formed on the skin.Ex foliation can be done using a bit hard scrub for body and a gentle one for face.My body type is normal and I do not want to use a creamy scrub and make it oily or over moisturised. All.All I wanted was a gel scrub which is easy to use and the gel is light on the skin.That's how I discovered this amazing product on Flipkart. Presenting Alpine secrets Sandalwood Scrub!!

Alpine Secrets Sandalwood Gel Body Scrub - Review
Package: The product comes in a huge plastic transparent jar with a light green screw cap. You have to cut the protective layer once you take the cap. Then it can be used directly. However, I would suggest you to use a spatula or a spoon solely dedicated to scoop out the product. Directly dipping our hands wouldn't be hygienic. I strongly feel that it is imported and not the local brand. About, Ingredients, Directions: Please refer the picture for all the information.

My Experience with the product: The first thing that I noticed about this product is, it's huge! I mean..real huge. I am sure this one would last you at least for 3-4 months even if you use it daily.Two spoonfuls of it is sufficient to scrub of my entire body(I know, I am TINY!) I was wanting to try gel scrubs coz the whole concept fascinated me.When I got my first scoop of it into my palm, I could actually see that's so clear and very light and it's not so thick like cream or watery.It is not spreading by itself. It made me remember the Edible Jelly which we can be prepared at home with jelly crystals.Anyway, coming to this the scrub has very tiny particles which are hard and they do not melt.You have to scrub till you get tired and then wash off. I believe they are the walnut particles which are mentioned in the ingredients list. The scrub smells nice not so hard sandalwood smell which irritate most of our noses but very mild smell that won't linger on our body once you wash off. It looks browney burnt orange in color but when you scoop out, you only get to see a very light brownish orange scrub. It is not hard to use on face but I kinda avoid using this on face but my hands love it. My hands feel so soft and smooth after I scrub them with this product. It doesn't lighten the skin.I repeat.But it clearly makes the skin clean and clear.
