It's 'Bean' A Pleasure Mr.Bean

Instagram is one place I always look for new products and it defiantly hasn't failed me with this one! Mr Bean Body Care* is a 100% organic coffee scrub for your skin which is made from premium ingredients including organic fair trade coffee beans, Himalayan pink rock salt, Demerara sugar, cold pressed coconut and vitamin E oils. It also comes in 3 different variations - coconut, mandarin, and Mr. Bean Man. The one I have been using is Mandarin.

First off, the packaging. It came in a big padded envelope and inside a brown box, so it was defiantly well protected while it was being delivered - thumbs for that! The bag itself is simple and sophisticated. It has everything on it you need to know (ingredients etc) without a loads of text and silly images you don't need - it's straight to the point. Also, black and white is so chic, making it look amazing in your bathroom. I would also like to mention that they are excellent is replying to emails and also delivery, as mine was delivered within a few days. Their website is full of tips on how to use and any other information you might require. In my mind, this makes them a company which actually cares about both their product and their customers.

 

It is very rare that I find a skincare product - let alone a scrub - that I love but this defiantly hits the spot. After just one use I could feel the difference in my skin. It is so smooth and soft - think better than the just saved legs feel, its that good! The added bonus which isn't actually mentioned by Mr.Bean on their website is the glow it leaves behind. With these cold winter months and skin being covered up so much, my skin can get quite dull but this defiantly helped to 'perk' it right up and left it feeling bright and healthy. Also, after using it on my face, I noticed that I needed to use less concealer/foundation and my pores seemed smaller and acne scars a lot less obvious. With spending so much time outside in all weathers and being around horses my hands are always in need of a bit of nourishment. After scrubbing it into my body to exfoliate, it got rid of all the dry skin on my hands too. Result! As I have quite sensitive skin which is prone to breakouts I was wondering if this would effect it, but it honestly didn't - well did but in a good way! My back is defiantly a problem area but after using Mr.Bean, I have had the clearest skin I think I have ever had without it being weighed down with different products.

 

Now, the smell. Absolutely amazing! The coffee mixed with the mandarin is gorgeous - think chocolate orange but coffee instead. It is quite strong at first but you soon get used to it - especially if your a coffee lover. I don't actually like coffee to drink but the smell YUM!
The most common question you ask yourself with a new product is if it is worth the money. I can tell you there is a whole lot of scrubbin' in this little bag, I have used it about 3 times and still have over half a bag left. This is because a little defiantly goes a long way with this body scrub. A lot of companies charge a lot for a miracle product but its not the care here and after trying it I would happily go out and spend £13.95 on this.

Directions for use: get wet, rub a large handful of scrub in circular massage motions focusing on your problem areas. Leave to dry for 5 minutes and finish with a rinse. Simple enough! I have been using this about once a week, as I feel this is best for me but it is gentle enough to use every day of you wish. I know some people might find the mess it makes of putting but doesn't bother me in the slightest - you are in the shower/bath so it is easy to wash away. Mr.Bean certainly wasn't kidding when they say you get 'down and dirty' with it!

I would defiantly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a good exfoliator, as it does exactly what it is suppose to do. It is also completely different to anything I have ever seen before and I genuinely look forward to using it.
