Product Description

WHAT IS IT?

Our iconic exfoliator, now poured into a larger jar with an elevated formula for even more indulgence.

Inspired by her grandma’s homemade recipe, Susie recreated this revitalising blend to sell at London markets and help pay the household bills aged just 15.

A throwback to her upbringing in Cairns, Australia, each jar is enriched with tropical botanicals and freshly squeezed ingredients, promising silky, nourished, and deliciously scented skin.

WHAT DOES IT DO?

A continuous sell-out at Susie’s original 2004 stall, this iconic body scrub remains a beloved bestseller today.

Magnesium salts and coconut coir fibres are freshly folded with a signature medley of mineral-rich sea salts and conditioning botanical oils. Infused with our classic citrus essential oil blend, Body Smooth gently exfoliates and guarantees irresistible softness.

250ml

How To Use

Scoop it out of the jar using your hands, then massage it into dry skin focusing on any rough or dry patches such as elbows, knees and soles of the feet.

Once you’ve covered every inch, rinse the sea salts away with warm water in the shower or bath and massage the remaining oils into your skin.

You won’t believe how your skin feels afterwards.

Follow with your favourite body oil or body cream for an extra boost of moisture.

Ingredients

Golden Jojoba Oil

Light but deeply hydrating, jojoba oil isn’t really an oil at all, it’s a liquid wax that has a similar makeup to our skin’s own sebum. That means our skin does a grand job of absorbing it as it recognises it as its own. It also spreads easily across the skin and is full of vitamins and nutrients that keep skin supple and stretchy.

Australian Lemon Myrtle

Native to Australia, lemon myrtle is a leafy plant that smells divine, especially when it’s been whisked up with bergamot and lime essential oils. It’s also great at rebalancing the skin’s natural oils, and is traditionally used as an insect repellent.

Macadamia Nut Oil

This precious nutty ingredient is a winner for keeping skin youthful. It contains moisturising oleic acid, and palmitoleic acid to repair skin cells and toughen up the cell's membrane, so it becomes less susceptible to ageing factors.

Why Jojoba Oil Is Your Skin's Best Friend

At the heart of our Smoothing Cleanser is jojoba oil: a golden, skin-loving liquid that closely mimics your skin's own natural oils. That means it deeply cleansers without disrupting your delicate moisture barrier. Rich in vitamins E and B-complex, jojoba oil gently melts away makeup, sunscreen, and daily build-up, while keeping your skin nourished and balanced. It's non-comedogenic (so it won't clog pores), making it ideal for all skin types, from dry and sensitive to oily and blemish-prone. We chose jojoba for its versatility and skin compatibility, but you'll stay for the silky-soft glow it leaves behind.

What does a body exfoliator do?

It removes the build-up of dead skin cells from the surface, leaving skin feeling smoother and softer, and helping your moisturiser absorb more effectively.

Is a body scrub the same as a body exfoliator?

A body scrub is a type of exfoliator. Body Smooth goes a step further by combining exfoliating sea salts with nourishing botanical oils, so it polishes and conditions in one step.

How often should I use it?

Once or twice a week is ideal for most people.

Can it help with dry skin?

Yes. Regular exfoliation removes the dead skin cells that can make skin feel rough or look dull. Following with a body oil or moisturiser helps lock that softness in.

Should I exfoliate before shaving or self-tan?

Yes to both. Before shaving, it creates a smoother surface for a closer result. Before self-tan, use Body Smooth around 24 hours ahead of application for the most even finish.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin?

Body Smooth is made with nourishing botanical oils and sea salts. If you have particularly sensitive skin, we'd recommend patch testing before use.

Should I wear SPF after exfoliating?

If you're spending time outdoors, yes. A broad-spectrum SPF is a good habit after exfoliating.

Can I use Body Smooth all year round?

Absolutely. It works just as well on dry winter skin as it does for summer prep.
