Currently loving: Zen Zest Exfoliating Body Scrub
Monday, July 16, 2012 at 8:40AM Last weekend, I was reading a book called Strengthsfinder 2.0. It has an awesome thesis - that many of us don't excel because we're not doing what we do best. We focus so much on overcoming our weaknesses that we overlook the cultivation of our strengths. That makes so much sense, eh? I plan to take the test soon. Wonder what I'll come up with!
Anyway, today I want to talk about a current favorite of mine: the Zen Zest Exfoliating Body Scrub. I've tried a lot of body scrubs and I tend to like most of them. I mean, how complicated can it be? But this Zen Zest one is quite different. It's very dense and thick. It feels nice when I spread it on, like thick luxurious, cool goo! Hehe.
The smell is also fascinating. The scent is similar to baby powder, but it's soft so it's not too overpowering. It doesn't last for more than 30 minutes out of the shower; good thing if you prefer your lotion or perfume to do the job, bad thing if you want your shower products to be your trademark smell.
What I like most about this scrub though is how it makes my skin feel utterly supple and smooth after I use it. Some scrubs can be drying but not this one! I love how my skin looks like when I step out of the bath. :D
So yes, love it. Try the Zen Zest Exfoliating Body Scrub if you like dense, spa-level body scrubs that smells like a baby's bottom. ;) I don't have the exact price but I'm sure it isn't expensive since Zen Zest is pretty affordable!
So what do you think? Now that I mentioned it, what's your current favorite scrub?

I've been wanting to read Strengthsfinder 2.0! But it's always out of stock when I go out and look for it. Maybe next time I'll be lucky enough to get my hands on it.
I don't have a favorite scrub (yet), but I've been using St. Ives Apricot Scrub. I got it for free at a contest somewhere. Actually I just ran out so I should be looking for a new one. Hehe Do Zen Zest body scrubs come in a squeeze tube packaging too? I prefer that type of packaging as I make a mess with scrubs that come in a tub :D
Zen Zest brings back so many high school memories. I remember being an avid fan of their body splash because they usually resemble VS which was the in thing back then. Aside from the scents, I like Zen Zest because of the affordability, and to see a good scrub in their array of products is both interesting and surprising :) I don't habitually use scrubs, I only get it every time I go to the spa. Aside from not having the time to regularly scrub my body, I haven't researched on what a good scrub is like (yet) so I guess the lack of information and time is what really keeps me from trying it out. Good review as always, and with the tag price, I am definitely getting one for myself. Might even bring it to the spa and ask the therapist to use this one instead. :)
