It's a British Beauty Invasion with Soap & Glory

The Brits have arrived and they've brought some amazing face and body products along with them.


You know when you walk into a store looking for a specific product and then there's this super-awesome item that just catches your eye on the shelf courtesy of brilliant packaging?
Say hello to Soap & Glory and get your skin spring & summer ready!

I have always seen Soap & Glory products during my trips to Shoppers Drug Mart but because I'm pretty much loyal to a few of my body and beauty products, I've never given them a whirl.

Have you seen them before? They are hard to miss.
From pretty dark pink shades with vivid fonts, catchy titles like 'Sexy Mother Pucker' or 'Clean On Me' and images of Vintage Pin-ups, you'd pretty much be sold from the exterior alone.


I was ecstatic to be sent over a few Soap & Glory Favourites to try for myself!
I can honestly tell you now, I have found a few new favourites. This explains why I've been seeing this brand pop up in multiple Magazines.

Marcia Kilgore is the Saskatchewan-born, Alberta-raised entrepeneur behind Soap & Glory. Gotta love our Canuck-born masterminds. A mother of two married to a European and living in London, she finally focused on bringing her brand back home to Canada.
Now proud purveyor of an absolutely fabulous full range of beauty, body and bath-stuffs, Soap & Glory recommends putting your products on with happiness and abandon, because they believe while beauty absolutely matters, it doesn’t matter absolutely.


Best-selling and award-winning, The Righteous Butter Body Butter™ has already become my new indulgence.

 
Infused with softening shea butter and aloe vera and scented with their Original Pink™ fragrance.
Their fragrance is a fruity floral of Rose and Bergamot -- it's not overpowering at all which is good and the smell sticks to your skin so well even after hours.
What I also love about it is that even though it is a body butter, it's not sticky like many tend to get.
It goes on smoothly and it feels fresh, not too thick and not too thin (or watery) like regular lotion.
This retails for $18.00 CDN, 300 ml.

The Hand Food hand cream never leaves my desk!
I also purchased another to keep in my bag on the go.


It's a non-greasy, hydrating hand cream to help relieve dry, chapped hands and also leaves that fresh Original Pink scent. It's made with shea butter, macadamia oil and marshmallow. Yes, marshmallow! Just lovely. And it sounds good enough to eat. But you don't want to do that.
It retails for $10, 125 ml.


Another favourite for the bath would have to be Flake Away™ Peach Seed Powder and Sugar Body Polish. With sugar & sea salt to scrub away dead cells, peach seed powder for gently polishing and grape seed oil and shea butter for nourishing and moisturizing.
I loved the feeling of my skin after I used this. Followed by the Righteous Body Butter and wow your skin is totally spring/summer ready!
Retail price is $18.00, 300 ml.

And ladies, you do not want to miss out on their lip-pumping, super-colour gloss, Sexy Mother Pucker.


With Superfill™ lip plumping spheres and LIPSWELL™ microcirculation boosting technology, this gloss is sure to pretty that pout.
I tried it on over my lip stick and after a couple of seconds felt the tingly, cool sensation. It lasted about 10 seconds than slowly faded away.
I already have naturally full lips (thank you genetics), but I did see the difference (and definitely felt it!).
I have had a few other friends of mine rave about Sexy Mother Pucker being a favourite of theirs.
They have 4 different colours: Clear, Candy Gloss (this is the one I used), Half Naked and Yummy Plum (I like this colour!)
Retails for $15.00 CDN, 7ml.

I can go on about all the products I received; I was thoroughly impressed!
Although it was an impressive line-up, I will have to say, aside from the Hand Food, I found the price a little more than I would like. Knock off a couple of dollars on each item and I'm totally sold.
But I will say that they do not skimp out on the amount and size of their product -- you get a lot and you don't need a lot which I guess is a contributing factor to the price.
Try it for yourself next time! You may find a few new favourites too!

Currently, you can only find and purchase the Soap & Glory products at Shoppers Drug Mart and Pharmaprix stores. Looking forward to seeing them expand!
You can learn more about Soap & Glory online at: www.soapandglory.com/ca.
