I got this range from L’Occitane Advent Calendar and love it.
As it is so cold in January and most of my effort is going into the Ballet Camp Challenge I thought this would be a great Challenge for February Health Farm.
Noticed the range at M & S so you may fancy doing the challenge and pampering yourself.
The fragrance is gorgeous so I’m sure you will love it ~ as it is almond it is good enough to eat ~ pampering yourself inside and outside.
If you like this you may want it for your summer spa routine ~ worth trying out in February.
Have blogged the full sized options for you so there is enough product for the whole of February.
Worth browsing the range and different price options.
Enriched with almond oil and crushed shells, the Almond Shower Scrub cleanses and exfoliates the skin to remove impurities and dead cells. Skin is soft, smooth and delicately scented with the fresh and delicate fragrance of almond tree flowers.
Love exfoliating scrub.
Really like this packaging.
Off to try it now.
Apply 2 to 3 times per week on dry or damp skin using gentle, upward massaging movements to stimulate microcirculation. Focus on rough areas such as heels, knees, and elbows, then rinse thoroughly.
Review
This is my favourite so far.
The fragrance is intoxicating.
This is perfect for pre and summer spa treatments.
I’d use this with fake tans if you can’t sunbathe and have fair skin.
It washes off easily as well which is always a bonus with body exfoliators.
I love the packaging as well.
Bliss!!!

Really like this as it rinses off easier than I thought it might.
Guess the oil hydrates your skin.
Almonds are good for nails and skin.
The fragrance is really lovely, might be a new favourite.

Conclusion
If you are doing the ballet challenge you may be putting all your effort into that.
This routine is a great challenge for February Health farm.
I’ve found it too cold for spa routines in January but really want to start again.
Hopefully get the full sized products of these before summer and use them with fake tanning products; remember to exfoliate before and after fake tanning.
I think if you are better at maths than me and not sure about this range but fancy exploring it you will get a good deal.
Just noticed this travel kit.
Product details
Almond milk concentrate – 20ml
Almond soap – 30g
Almond delicious hands – 10ml
Almond supple skin oil – 15ml
Almond shower oil – 75ml
You could do the challenge with this and see if you like the fragrance before you purchase more, it hasn’t got the exfoliator but you can just use one from your storage to do the challenge.
This is ÂŁ25 including the makeup bag.
I’d probably opt for this one if I hadn’t tried the fragrance.
If I was just to recommend one I’d go for the firming milk or oil depending on your preference of product.
These products are all available at Marks and Spencer and L’Occitane.com.
Hope you like this idea and challenge ~ gives you chance to think about it and get product if you are up for the challenge.
