My Impression
Okay, if you are looking for a great exfoliator, this is not the product that you want to try. However, if you have a sensitive skin and need mild exfoliation for daily usage, this product would be a fantastic option as it is very gentle on skin. This product is pretty expensive for a body wash, but its zesty citrus smells amazing and leaves it my skin soft and clean. This product is also long lasting as I don’t have to use much. Overall, it’s a great luxurious body wash.

The Satsuma body care line from The Body Shop is so much love!!! I really like the scent! I've yet to try the body polish, but the shower gel and body lotion are my favourite!
