I saw the Sanctuary Spa Cooling Sorbet Collection in Boots before I went on holiday and I thought they sounded really cool (get it), and as I love a lot of Sanctuary Spa products I thought give these newbie products a try. If I remember even the girl behind the counter at Boots wanted to buy these for herself.
Refresh & re-energise with this skin quenching range of cucumber infused, sorbet-inspired textures. Instantly cool & soothe with our scrub & sorbet containing calming aloe vera. If that doesn’t sound amazing then nothing ever will! It also sound like the perfect way to cool down on a hot stuffy summer day.
Let talk about the Cooling Body Sorbet first:
Keep your cool & experience the chilly delights of sorbet freshness swirling over your skin. A refreshing blend of waterlilly, cucumber water & aloe vera are squeezed into this lusciously cooling moisture sorbet. Topped with a beautifully light & fresh fragrance of effervescent citrus notes with a dash of soft musk, your limbs will be left feeling instantly cool, refreshed & moisturised. Smooth this skin softening sorbet over limbs & delight as the ice-cool sensations dance over your body.
Enjoy a refreshing sorbet inspired experience.
How To Use: Smooth this skin softening sorbet over limbs & delight as the ice cool sensations dance over your body.
I took this with me on my holiday as I wanted way to refresh myself during the day and not get all clammy and sweaty, I was putting this on my arm and legs while on the trains (I’m sure the other passenger thought I was mad!). When your first put on the cream, you will pick up the Aloe Vera and cucumber water smell and the great thing it isn’t over powering (so perfect to put on a train without it stinking like a beauty parlor). The cream sink instantly and doesn’t feel sticky. My advice would be if you’re rushing like a headless-chicken and going from air conditioned building to hot sticky air-less underground tube then put a dab of this on your skin and it will revivals you and make you feel fresh. This was a life-saver for me on my travels.
The next is Cooling Glacial Scrub:
Expose yourself to a blizzard of skin-chilling scrub sensations. A blend of sea salt, aloe vera & cucumber water have been crushed into this unique icy infusion to polish away dull dead skin & reveal a silky smooth new you. Scoop up a flurry of snowy scrub & massage in a circular motion over damp skin until a rich, white lather is formed. Rinse away, pat dry & await the cooling sensations to breeze over your skin.
Enjoy a refreshing sorbet inspired experience.
This is interesting as I’ve been looking for a decent scrub for a very long time, I wanted one the could remove all the dead skin cells and could give my skin a new glow. As with the cooling body scrub you get the smell of Aloe Vera and the cucumber water, but also this time sea salt. The sea salt in beauty products often can feel a little harsh on the skin, I understand it benefit and why in scrub to have sea salt in it ingredient; but I’m often find it a pain to remove or to scrub away from the top layer of skin – does that make sense? I often feel it doesn’t lather all over skin, unless I’m doing it all wrong. I tend to like a lot of my beauty products to sink in the skin quite quickly and not hoovering on the top layer of skin but this one sort of does, I then ended up just washing it all away as I don’t have patience to wait for it to sink in. I will say when I first tried this out It was in the shower so next time I might use this in a bath and I might have the patient for it to sink into my skin. This is just me so let me know how you get on with it.
Finally we onto the Cooling Shower Drench:
Revive & immerse your skin in delicate, cool refreshment. Flecked with a whirl of shimmering flakes & infused with watermelon & cucumber extract this skin-chilling body wash is the perfect pick to cleanse & invigorate. Massage Ice Cool Shower Drench into wet skin or pour onto a puff & enjoy the bubbly lather enveloping your body. For a more intense experience finish your shower with a short blast of cold water if you dare! Rinse away, pat skin dry & enjoy the ice cool sensations wrapping around your body.
If there was an emoji I could use here, it would be a massive bright red heart. In all honestly I love this shower drench and it one of the best shower products I have ever used. As with the Body Sorbet it a refreshing blend of cucumber water and Aloe Vera, but this time it has watermelon. Oh my god this smell divine! Once again it isn’t an over-powering smell, it completely soften and fresh the skin. I find myself stroking my skin after worth as it feel so soft and smell so good. Add this to your shower collections and you won’t be disappointed.
Overall I was very happy with the Sanctuary Spa Cooling Sorbet Collection and next time you’re in Boots, make sure you pick it up.
