Lacura Essentials - Detox Me - Firming Body Lotion

This claims to help firm, tighten and tone using a 'silhouette-refining complex' (that is some next level bullsh!ting). 
I didn't feel it did these things, but it was still nice.

It also contains goji berry, acai berry, blueberry and coffee. 
It smells like macadamia and coconut.

It is thin (like a lotion should be) but doesn't absorb as well as I would like.

Price: 4/5 (~$7 for 200mL, I really should record the price)
Scent: 2/5
Effectiveness: 2/5 

Coffee Organics - Organic Coffee - Scrub

I received this in a Bellabox. It is essentially coffee grounds with a peppermint scent that you use to scrub your body.

Let's address the writing on the front of the package. This will NOT reduce cellulite or scarring and probably won't reduce inflammation. I can tell you this even without testing it.

Ignoring this, the rest of the packet it cute. A light aqua and white simple sticker on a foil, resealable bag. It is kind of reminiscent of the foil packages you can buy coffee in. 

The coffee itself comes from ground coffee and that which is recycled from coffee pods (reduce, reuse, recycle!). It is a good choice for a scrub since it is biodegradable and the coffee helps neutralise odours. The peppermint oil is a nice addition as well. 

I didn't like the suggestion that you leave it on your wet body for 5-10 min before washing it off. If you use it in the shower (which you probably would), 5-10 min is a LONG time to be shivering, cold and wet.

Like this, but you need to finish watching a youtube video before you change your clothes.

Overall, it was okay, but I'd love to see this come in a gel so the 'nutrients' in the coffee have already been extracted out and are readily available.

Price: 1/5 ($14.95 for an unspecified amount, maybe 300g?)
Scent: 5/5
Effectiveness: 2/5
