quite enjoyable
Posted: January 19, 2010
"i was first introduced to the gingerbread line with this product and it got me hooked. you should know that it does not smell like a cookie or baked good. the smell is a very fresh effervescent ginger-type fragrance. it's fresh but still has a yummy depth to it. the salt scrub formulation works amazingly well to exfoliate skin- i like to use it on dry skin in the the shower just before i turn the water on."

Review 2 for the gingerbread man salt scrub

gingerbread man
Posted: December 29, 2009
"I got this for xmas. I never thought of getting it because of the name gingerbread but it does not smell anything like gingerbread. It is of a lemon smell but hard to describe the other notes. It is a lemon base though. It is a refreshing and light scent and smells very nice. I am not a fan of food smelling body stuff but this is nice. I LOve it

Review 3 for the gingerbread man salt scrub

Wonderful..for the most part
Posted: December 27, 2009
"The scrub is absolutely delightful. there's no greasy after-feel and the warming sensation is quite invigorating, especially in a steam shower! the only thing I'm not too keen on is that it has more of a lemony scent than gingerbread."

Makes your skin so soft!
Posted: December 27, 2009
"i just purchased the gingerbread man shower gel and the hot salt scrub last month. they are both great! I love them! the hot salt scrub makes your skin so soft and smooth. i use it once a week and look forward to it. it's part of my "spa" day. I gave two of the gingerbread man hot salt scrubs as Christmas gifts. i highly recommend it."

does exactly what it promises
Posted: December 20, 2009
"this scrub is a great product to use paired with the gingerbread man 3-in-1but it stands well on its own, too! I find the gingerale scent is a little stronger in the scrub than the 3-in-1. like all philosophy scrubs it exfoliates gently and leaves your skin super soft and smooth, without making a slippery oily mess in the tub. really excellent product!"

Super exfoliator
Posted: December 16, 2009
"I have tried countless other salt scrubs over the years but nothing compares to the exfoliating I get with philosophy's salt scrub. this is a must have for the winter months when my skin gets overly dry and almost painful. I use this once a week and that keeps my skin looking and feeling much healthier. The added benefit is that my lotions go on easier, I use less and therefore am spending less on product overall.

There was a bit of a learning curve for me but I now have a really good system in place. I sit on the side of the tub, dampen my hands and then take a small scoop of scrub and work it into my skin. I might add a little more water to my hands but I prefer my body to be dry since I feel I get a better 'scrub" that way. it's not painful, just warm. On cold winter evenings this feels really good and I especially love it when hubby scrubs my back for me. Best pampering, ever!

The scent is very light and effervescent. very much like what other reviewers have said about a ginger ale scent. Also, if your an amazing grace fan, the gingerbread man is a great compliment to AG!

For those who might be worried about oils in the tub or shower, have no fear. the gingerbread man is not oily and will not leave your bathing area slippery. it also rinses easily and won't leave a mess behind.

Awesome gift idea, too!

Review 9 for the gingerbread man salt scrub

skin is so soft
Posted: November 30, 2009
"Living in a northern state during winter, skin gets very dry and itchy, I was looking for a scrub and chose this over a $60 brown sugar scrub. I can say I'm glad I didn't spend $60! This is definitely worth the money as you get so much. the scent is nice and does not stay with me which is great when I use other lotions with different scents. scrub works great and leaves my whole body soft and not greasy or oily, also cleans up super easy in the tub. I'm a definite fan!"

remember, this does not smell like gingerbread!
Posted: October 30, 2009
"the first time I tried this, I HATED it, because it smelled lemony to me. It's actually a ginger smell, like ginger ale. Once I realized I was never going to smell gingerbread, I was able to smell it for what it is and enjoy it a lot! philosophy makes the best body scrubs I've ever tried! I love that they're not oily or runny. they are super thick, very exfoliating, but they don't dry out your skin. I usually turn the shower on, get under the water for a second, turn the water off & scrub away. My skin feels amazing afterwards....baby soft!
I gave it 4 stars because I think if it's going to be called gingerbread man, then it should smell like gingerbread. Maybe it should be renamed ginger ale man ;-)

wonderful gingerale scrub
Posted: October 6, 2009
"i have recently discovered the scrubs and they are the best i have ever tried. it smells just like gingerale with a faint lemon undertone. it does not smell sweet or like a baked good in any way. i personally love gingerale and i think that this is a good year round scent. it does have a slight warming sensation to me and leaves your skin so soft and moisturized. there is no oil slick in the tub with this one which i love. the packaging is really sturdy and cute too. if you were giving this as a gift you would not even need a bag it looks perfect as is. i would definitely recommend this to anyone."
