Soap & Glory – ‘Easy Glistening’ Body Gloss

Today Sopho’s trying ‘Easy Glistening’ Sweet Almond Dry Oil Body Gloss by Soap & Glory.

“Body gloss? What’s that when it’s at home then?”

Have you ever felt like your skin’s dull? Moisturised and soft, but doesn’t look anything special? Well that’s exactly what this product’s here for.

All you do is spray it on to bare skin before you get dressed and apparently you’ll be left with glowing skin.

As usual, I tried it out for you, and here’s what I found:

The Positives:

• It smells divine. This almondy vanilla scent means you just can’t stop sniffing yourself all day. And, as guys will appreciate this smell too, you might find others giving you a little sniff as well.
• The packaging  has a nice, retro twist which means you won’t be embarrassed to leave this on show.
• The glitteryness does make yous skin look nicer and shinier, and it did actually make me smile and generally feel like I was getting ready to go out which was a definite bonus.

The Negatives:

• It’s quite pricey at around £5 for 150ml.
• As it’s a ‘dry oil’ it can feel slightly greasy at times, especially if used under clothes as opposed to on bare legs with a dress for example.
• It’s not a moisturiser, so skin does need to be moisturised as well.
• As you have to rub it in with your hands (due to it being in an aerosol rather than a pump bottle), so you will end up with glittery hands, as well as other things you touch sometimes.

The Verdict:

A good product to use if you’re getting ready to go out for the night, but probably too much bother and too expensive for everyday use. Overall, I’d give this product a 3 out of 5.
