Body scrub review - Soap and Glory: Sugar Crush Body Scrub part 2
Happy Saturday, visitors! Remember my Body scrub post last week? (you can read it here) I promised a follow up review on using it on dry skin before a shower, as in that post I had only tried it on wet skin. So here you go... starting with some dark dark pictures...
Ok so you may recall that on the whole I wasn't very impressed by this scrub when used in the shower, or on wet skin. On dry skin however it is excellent! A few thoughts, in the order they occurred to me:

Body scrub review - Soap and Glory: Sugar Crush Body Scrub
It's Sunday, which for a lot of us is pamper day, getting our bodies prepped and primed for the week ahead.
It's been a while since I used a body scrub but I have quite a few on stand by so it's time I got to using them, and while I'm at it, reviewing them too!
Usually I exfoliate in the shower - quite easily done just by wearing an exfoliating mitt or 2 when when applying shower gel or soap. But my usual soap of choice, your usual Dove cream soap was all gone and I didn't feel my Philosophy Vanilla Birthday Cake shower gel was going to cut it, so I rummaged through my box of stand by goodies and this is what I found!

Wedding Gift Ideas
A close male friend of mine is getting married at the end of the month, and usually in Punjabi weddings the guests would gift the couple money at various stages of the event, as a form of blessing. Gifts are optional and usually only given by close friends and family - a lot of the time it's just a lot more cash.
However, although my friend and his bride are of Indian descent neither are Punjabi, so I'm not too sure on the traditions I'm too expect on the day. I'll probably keep enough cash on me to cover any such blessing but I thought it would be great if I could get a gift for them.. But somehow, I've never had to do this before. The first English wedding I went to, the couple requested money instead of gifts for them to buy their honeymoon - great idea I think.
Any ideas? Leave comments!
Here's what I've come up with, varying gifts of varying monetary value and size, and maybe I can use a combination:
