This is a mild scrub for frequent use or for those individuals who are scrub virgins and don’t know where to start. The pumice grains are quite small and you get a lovely foamy cleansing action. This product is ideal for pre-tanning application as it washes off easily and doesn’t leave a residue on you or a ring around the tub. It will also travel well as the tube can easily stash into any toiletry bag. It’s priced on the higher side but the thick consistency means you don’t need much and you should get plenty of sessions out of this tube.
Contains:
Peppermint Extract, Bamboo, Pumice
The Good Stuff
- Tingly peppermint is super refreshing
- Leaves skin super soft
- Packaging is uber cool
The Bad Stuff
- Might be too pricey for some
Verdict
I do love this scrub mostly due to the peppermint. The scrubbing action is a tad too mild for me but that shouldn’t put you off as it’s great for an everyday wash.

This is a very concentrated product as in you hardly need any to get a good proper wash. Of course the first time I used it I poured too much in my palm (I think I was too excited to focus) so after subsequent uses I made sure I was more economical with my dollop.
I would class this as a mild scrub as the exfoliating action is quite gentle for everyday use. It has a lovely delicate smell of orange oil so the fragrance is quite ambiguous. If you have oily skin like me then this is perfect to wash the day off especially if you live in a city and feel grimy after work. I’ve used this to wash my face before re-applying makeup to go out in the evening and it does wash all my skin sins away. Lucky Tiger recommends that you use this after cleansing but I think this doubles up as both a cleanser and exfoliator. This face scrub is perfect for those couples who like to use each other’s stuff and looks wicked on the bathroom shelf.
Update! You can now buy this and other Crazy Rumors flavours at SuperSmoocher!
Crazy Rumors is a small but perfectly formed partnership of husband and wife team of Brian and Edie Himmel of Brooklyn, New York. They have combined natural products with a fun theme and came up with lovely lip balm that is Vegan and Cruelty Free. Not many companies would take the time to make sure they tick of the ethical boxes but this sincere couple have and hats off to them!
Why I bought it
I jumped up and down when this arrived to me at work as I couldn’t wait to use it. I am constantly losing lip balms so I probably have a few scattered around the house but I thought I should really get another just in case the others didn’t turn up. None of the males in the office could understand why anyone would want their lips to smell like coffee except one colleague who loves coffee and he said he’d be more than happy if his wife tasted of his favourite drink. I have to say this lip balm does last longer than most and I really thought it would just be another flavoured lip balm but it glides on easily and is the perfect treat after using Sara Happ Lip Scrub. It isn’t greasy and doesn’t add colour so would be perfect for pre-lippy application. James was also happy to kiss me after I used it siting the texture wasn’t off putting and smelled lovely.
The lip balms come in other ‘Perk’ coffee flavours, Amaretto, French Vanilla, Hazelnut, Irish Cream and Mocha. But for you tea drinkers out there don’t fret they’ve made a Vegan and Cruelty Free lip balm for you too! The ‘Brew’ range consists of Apple Spice, Bergamont, Peach, Lemongrass, Apricot and Spice Chai. They also have other ranges that don’t seem to be available in the UK yet but I shall let you know when they are! Happy kissing everyone!
Contains:
Carnauba Wax, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Organic Shea Butter
Ideal for
- Vegans/Vegetarians
- Those looking for cruelty-free beauty products
- Anyone who loves the smell of coffee
Verdict
I have to lose this one so I can buy some more!
