Sanctuary Spa Green Lemon & Orange Blossom Wet Skin Moisture Miracle
That day when a product lands on your desk… And you smell it and think: ‘If you’d told me this was a Miller Harris, or a Jo Malone, I would’ve believed you…’
Well, these aren’t. They’re by Sanctuary Spa (a consistently impressive range, in our book), and they’re a downright steal. Total delights for skin – and most especially, total treats for the nose, serving up the most refreshing blend or orange blossom, neroli, green lemon and thyme, along with orange flower water and lemon seed oil. (We would add here: there’s a White Lily & Damask Rose option which we’re less keen on, but might be worth checking out if you’re a florals person.)
There are a couple of new options in this range, to sit alongside the body butter, body lotion and body wash: Foaming Shower Burst, and Wet Skin Moisture Miracle.
Now, when it comes to getting skin clean, we tend towards good old soap most of the time – almost zero packaging waste. (There’d be a lot of eco-guilt, from us, tossing this aerosol in the trash.)
But the Wet Skin Moisture Miracle is – well, a bit of a miracle, really. (That’s why the original product scooped a CEW Award earlier this year.) Anyone who finds themselves in a rush after the shower/bath will be familiar with the way most body lotions refuse to sink into skin, leaving white streaks that you have to rub to blend. Wet Skin Moisture Miracle is designed to combat that particular challenge, and is – just as they promise – ‘ideal for time-poor women’.
Or anyone who’s feeling poor generally, actually – and wants a beauty treat that smells (and performs) just like it cost five times as much.
