    Oh-thanks. I've not heard them called that before. Are they open on a Sunday? There's only one near me that does.

    To keep relevant to the thread, I tried the Granovita facial scrub last night and it has a lovely smell. Gentle exfoliation and I like that the bottle has a pump, so the amount you use is easy to control. :)

  • My local 99p store had this whole range for sale - 99p of course, usually retailing at £9.99 each according to google.

    Lovely, natural style skin products with natural oils that are usually very expensive (think Neal's Yard etc.) They do have quite a strong 'herbally' scent, but if you have used Lush or Neal's Yard before you will be used to that.



    thank you so much went especially for this today and I was in luck.

    I got the face scrub and night cream, impressed with both and am hoping to get a few more. You are right they remind of neals yard stuff, smell lovely. Thank you.

    I like the purely skinful range as well the only one that didn't appeal was the eye one as I dont' like them as a rule. The day cream is a lovely scent and is not irritating my face like a lot do. Been using it a few days. I did a liz earle cleanse and polish then used the day cream after. Next day the lady i clean for remarked on my skin looked good.

    Also loving http://www.amazon.co.uk/Teisseire-Lemon-Sirop-600ml/dp/B00MXXLHYK this drink its very refreshing and even though its a syrup not that sweet at all. You only need a tiny amount as well it makes 5-6 litres. Its normally £3.50 in waitrose. I went back and stocked up once I realised how nice it was.

    I bought a couple of the Purely Skinful range but the pump dispensers didn't work and the day cream smelt off. I expect it is fairly old stock.
