First of all, just look at this cutie pie. I love how Sandy Sants looks and the cute fella's cheerful appearance got me walking his way. And when I took a whiff of his cheerful scent I simply had to have it. I love all festive products and what is more festive than a Santa's cute moustache? I haven't used a Lush body scrub before and I haven't given it much thought on how it should be used. I was delighted to have it and planned a quick shower to end the day. I usually keep my Lush products in small tea plates or plastic soap containers. Santa was on a small plate and it proved to be a wise decision. I hopped under the shower, used my delicious Lush soaps and I reached to grab my Santa. Then I made a mistake. I sprinkled it with water and it started to melt. Panicking, I just dropped it back onto the plate. What was I thinking? This is a sugar scrub, what was I expecting to happen?
Prije svega moramo obratiti paznju na to kakav je ovo slatkis. Jako mi je simpatican izgled Sandy Sante i ovaj veseljak me privukao te sam krenula ka njemu. A kada sam ga snjofnula ma jednostavno sam ga morala kupiti. Super su mi svi praznicni proizvodi a sta bi moglo asocirati na praznike vise od slatkih brkova Deda Mraza? Nisam prije koristila pilinge za tijelo iz Lush-a te nisam ni mnogo razmisljala o tome kako bi se trebao koristiti takav proizvod. Zadovoljna sto sam ga nabavila, uplanirala sam kratko tusiranje za kraj dana. Obicno drzim svoje Lush proizvode na malenim tanjiricima ili u plasticnim posudama za sapun. Sandy Santu sam stavila na tanjiric i to se pokazalo kao dobar odabir. Uskocila sam pod tus, iskoristila svoje slasne Lush sapune i uzela sam nakon toga Santu. I napravila gresku. Posula sam ga vodom i poceo mi se topiti u rukama. Sva u panici, bacila sam ga nazad na tanjiric. I bas nemam pojma o cemu sam razmisljala ako sam uopste. Pa to je secerni piling, mislim, sta drugo ocekivati da se desi kada dodje u kontakt sa vodom?
I took a scoop of that melted Santa and scrubbed myself. I was shocked again. The red Sandy Santa's winter hat colored me all in a vivid red. It certainly made this entire experience interesting. So many surprises from this guy and I even melted him entirely. I think there are two ways to use him. Either you break a chunk of him to use per shower which I think would be hard since he is sturdy. The second way is to prepare a jar for him so when the water hits him and he starts to melt, just put him inside the jar. That is what I did when I finished my shower. I took a small glass jar and poured one part of him inside and the other more firm part of Santa I just dropped inside with my spoon. And when you want to use him you simply pick up some of Santa with your clean fingers or with a spoon of you're squeamish.
Zatim sam zagrabila malo otopljenog Sandy Sante i ispilingovala kozu. Crvena kapica Deda Mraza me cijelu obojila u drecavo crvenu boju. To je ucinilo ovo citavo iskustvo jos interesantnijim. Toliko mi je iznenadjenja priredio ovaj malisa i ja mu vratim tako sto sam ga istopila. Mislim da postoje dva nacina na koji se moze koristiti. Prvi je da odlomite dio pilinga po potrebi za tusiranje a ostatak ostavite u neku zdjelicu. Drugi nacin je da pripremite malu teglicu tako da kada ga voda dohvati samo ga prebacite u u teglicu. To sam i ja ucinila kada sam zavrsila sa tusiranjem. Uzela sam staklenu teglu i tecni dio usula u nju a gusti dio sam ubacila pomocu kasike. I kada ga zelite ponovo koristiti mozete uzeti onoliko koliko zelite prsticima ili kasikom ako ste gadljivi.
Now that I have mastered the use of Sandy Santa I want to tell you how it performed. This is a really good body scrub. There's no doubt about it. It smells beautifully. A citrusy blend enriched with relaxing florals. It smells like a really good perfume. Everyone who has smelled it at my place loved it. As for the scrub action it gives, I would say it's a perfect 10. This scrub isn't too harsh on the skin and even though you feel all the beads scrubbing away the dead skin, it isn't unpleasant nor it is agressive. This to me is a perfectly balanced scrub. It leaves skin beautifully evened and smooth. The Brazilian orange oil, sandalwood and rosewood make this old guy feeling young and uplifts your spirit. The sugar, bicarb and sand (yes, I do mean real fine sand) exfoliate the skin perfectly without irritating it.
Sada kada sam savladala upotrebu Sandy Sante secernog pilinga, zelim prenijeti iskustvo o tomke kakvim se pokazao. Ukratko, ovo je jako dobar piling za tijelo. U to nema sumnje. Prekrasno mirise. To je mjesavina agruma sa opustajucim cvijetnim notama. Meni mirise na neki kvalitetan parfem. Svima koji su ga pomirisali se dopao takodjer. Sto se tice efikasnosti pilingovanja dala bih mu cistu desetku. Ovaj piling nije grub prema kozi i iako osjetite zrnca kako skidaju mrtvu kozu, nije neugodan niti agresivan za koristiti. Po mom ukusu je savrseno izbalansiran. A poslije njega je koza jako mekana i glatka. Ulje brazilske narandze, sandalovina i palisander ozive ovog dedicu i okrepljuju duh. Secer, soda bikarbona i pijesak (da, stvarno mislim na sitni pijesak) ispilinguju kozu do savrsenstva a da je ne iziritiraju.
