On trial - Body polishers

We\'ve tested some of the best body polishers that claim to be able to turn dull, rough skin into glowing, radiant skin worthy of a red carpet roll call, ok well at least some summer dresses! Read on to discover our top five...

ESPA Exfoliating body polish

"I\'ve never used a \'dry\' exfoliator before, but it\'s a brilliant buy for the girl on the go. Initially, I didn\'t find this as effective as other scrubs, but the end result was amazing, my skin was so soft! The polish settles onto dry skin easily and is good for all-over body use. Be careful not to use too much though, as you have to brush it off and you can get into a sticky situation. My skin was left with a subtle sparkle and I was surprised at just how effective this gentle product was." 

Bnatural conditioning salt scrub

"This nice organic option isn\'t as liquid like as other scrubs I\'ve tried which is great as it stayed on my skin even when I was showering and didn\'t slide off but it did rinse away easily. Because the salt crystals are fairly large you can really see and feel them on your skin and it\'s easy to work the scrub into problem areas - I felt like I\'d really got rid of my rough skin. The crystals are the magic part as they are gentle on your skin but abrasive enough to leave me with softer skin."

Origins Incredible Spreadable Scrub

"Origins scrubs are renown for being a favourite amongst those in-the-know and this ginger body smoother scrub doesn\'t disappoint. My dry, flakey skin suffering severe dehydration from a trip to a very chilly New York combined with my love of sitting on radiators needed some serious TLC and Origins worked its magic once again. Chock full of brown and white sugars for buffing and dead sea salts for brightening my skin felt noticeably smoother and the olive oil left my once parched skin hydrated and glowing. An absolute winner."

Lisa Hoffman spa shower body scrub

"This smells delicious and is perfect for a quick ‘in the shower\' body scrub. It\'s was gentle on my skin as the exfoliating particles are small enough not to be too abrasive yet the creamy formula was super soft on my skin - this could definitely be used daily. The real plus point is the pump action bottle which means minimal mess and quick application. Loved it!"

Repêchage\'s Honey Body Polish

"Mmm I loved this body scrub with its thick almost clay like texture that was a real treat for the skin. Containing oats, crushed almonds and with the sweet scent of honey this really felt like a wholesome natural treat for your skin.  My post winter skin felt amazing after one use, I will definitely be using this again."
