My Opinion:
 
I've never been a huge fan of Body's Shop skin care products, but I do love their body care stuffs, especially the shower gels and body scrubs. Recently, while I was stocking up on my body care products, this Tea Tree Combo was being promoted and it was HK$179.00 for 2.
 
I've actually got those for my husband but ended really liking the Squeaky Clean Scrub, the beads size were just right to exfoliate without irritating my skin and the Tea Tree has kept my skin clear. However I didn't really care for the Cream and Creamy wash, but that's just a personal preference because I always wash my face with my clarisonic, and since this facial wash does not lather it doesn't work with the clarisonic.
