This is the latest launched from Ole Henriksen and you may have already seen these doing the rounds and it’s been a pretty big launch! Say hello to the Ole Henriksen Lemonade Smoothing scrub ; a brightening treatment to reveal brighter, smoother skin and GREAT for this time of year when you are wanting to refresh and renew your regime as we launch ourselves into spring!
‘A refreshing, exfoliating scrub that instantly retexturises, polishes and reduces the look of pores, with AHAs, lemon peel and sugar.’
The first product I ever, ever used from Ole Henriksen was actually the now discontinued Lemon Flash Peel which I used to love! Maybe this is a more advanced and updated version of one of my old favourites?! Ole Henriksen believes in the transformative power of skincare that allows you to glow from the inside out, all day long. If you don’t know, let me tell you…. Ole is a cosmetician and skincare guru more than 40 years experience in the skincare industry, and his Hollywood spa which has been open for 30 years+ was the go-to for the Hollywood elite and celebrities. Ole’s formulations expertly combine powerful actives, natural botanicals and essential fatty acids to address all skin concerns for all skin types. Whether your skin concern is age-defying, dullness, oily skin, acne prone skin, uneven texture, fine lines and wrinkles, or dry and sensitive skin, Ole has a skincare product to meet your specific needs.
So let’s chat all things Ole Henriksen Lemonade smoothing scrub ! This dual-action retexturising scrub physically and chemically exfoliates. This power-packed brightening and exfoliating treatment will instantly re-texturise and polish the skin ; reducing the appearance of pores and giving you that baby-soft smooth skin.
It contains high-potency AHA’s (glycolic acid + lactic acid) which work to loosen those dead skin cells, and lemon peel powder and sugar exfoliants will sweep away the dead skin. The Lemonade Smoothing Scrub also contains chamomile and holy basil to help calm and smooth the skin.
The Ole Henriksen Smoothing Scrub smells absolutely incredible and I’ve really been enjoying using it this past month. It’s a thick gel texture (reminds me of lemon curd ngl) and I have been using it twice a week for that brightening boost. NOTE : This is a pretty vigorous and effective treatment..the combination of both physical and chemical exfoliators make it quick and instant but sensitive skins be very gentle with it. Don’t ‘scrub’ this on the skin, make sure to gently massage it in, the ingredients do the work for you. If you ate more sensitive I would simply apply this as mask…..no scrubbing (!) and simply remove with a warm cloth.
How to use:
Apply to wet skin and gently massage in. Leave on for up to 2 minutes before rinsing, or rinse right away. Use 2-3 times per week. Avoid the eye area.Make SURE you are always wearing an SPF when using any kind oh AHA’s in your skincare regime.
The Ole Henriksen Lemonade Smoothing Scrub is available exclusively from Boots and is priced at £25.
