Heaven in tub x 3 - Soap and Glory Three Times Butter Trio Review

Hello my lovelies, how are we all doing today? 

February has arrived, we are two months in to 2016 already andValentines Day is around the corner.  Do you have any special plans in the works next Sunday?  I think me and the hubby will be seeing Deadpool.  Not the most romantic I know, but we’re saving the pennies for Florida.  Besides a film and dinner afterwards isn’t a bad date night right?  Am quite excited to see the film as it looks really good and Ryan Reynolds is not unpleasant to look at either.

Today I am reviewing one of my sale finds from Soap and Glory.  It’s the Three Times Butter set.  Original RRP was £8 and it was reduced to £4 in Boots.

Three Times Butter 
This is my first ever Soap and Glory purchase.  I must admit I wasn’t a fan at first, I smelt one of the hand creams (can’t remember which one) and it smelt so sickly and sweet, I figured that the rest of their products probably smelt like that.  Ignorant I know, but I’ve learnt my lesson and am now a Soap and Glory convert.

I think this set was perfect for me to ease into their range.  I’ve already looked up some other products and have my eye on the Fab Pore face mask.

Anywho, back to the products at hand, in the set we have three mini tubs of:-

 
The Righteous Butter

Sugar Crush

Smoothie Star




Righteous Butter
First off, I want to profess my love for The Righteous Butter.  It smells so heavenly divine I almost don’t want to use it so that it never runs out, ha ha!  The scent is very strong and heavy.  Citrus like with something else I can’t quite put my finger on, like a buttery cocoa smell.  Sorry, I’m not good with describing scents unless its really obvious like roses or chocolate.  There does seem to be a good mixture of scents in there.  Put it this way whatever they are they smell gorgeous. 

The consistency is quite thick and does take a little while to dry.  But once you’ve covered your whole body you should be dry enough to put your on jammies.  This is by far my favourite out of the trio and I will definitely be buying the full size tub.

Sugar Crush
Next up is Sugar Crush, my second favourite of the trio.  With a heavy citrus scent, it reminds me of a sweet I used to eat when I was younger, can’t for the life of me remember what it was called, but it takes me back to my school days whenever I smell this.  It’s like a fizzy sherbert type smell, so I’m thinking it is probably one of those chewy sweets like Refreshers.   The texture for this one is lighter than Righteous Butter and it goes on so smoothly.  It’s also quite refreshing as well.

Smoothie Star
Last up we have Smoothie Star.  Now when I first tried this one I did not like it at all.  But after a second round its grown on me.  I’ll admit its not my favourite compared to the other two, but it does the job and makes me feel silky smooth after application.  The scent I know straightaway and thats almonds.  It is very strong almond scent mixed in with cocoa butter and I think that’s why I wasn’t so keen, as personally I don’t think those two scents go together.  To me this one feels a little thicker than Sugar Crush, but lighter than Righteous Butter.

Overall I am so pleased I found these in the sale and that I finally tried them out.  All of them leave my skin feeling so soft and smooth and the scents are heavenly, I love catching little whiffs of it here and there after application. 

The packaging for Soap and Glory products are gorgeous, I mean who doesn’t love pink, its very eye catching and makes you want to look and see what this pretty object is.    I will probably try and find a use for the tubs, as they are just too cute. 

Value wise, obviously these were a bargain as they were in the sale, but the original rrp is pretty good value at £8 and these would definitely make a lovely gift or starter to their products.

I can’t wait to try the rest of their product range and check our their make up too.   Have heard good things about all their makeup.

Do you guys use any of these lotions?  Which one is your favourite?  What other S&G products do you use?  Leave me a comment as I love to hear from you.

Ciao for now
