oluv fresh olive leaf body scrub

Just finished off my little pot of Oluv's Body Scrub. Sad to see it go. It is a heavy-duty scrub, and leaves you covered in a layer of olive oil, and in what looks like spices, but, once you wipe all that away, the skin underneath is like buttah. I'm not a fan of olive oil--I tried it many moons ago as a bath & body oil and ended up having to throw away all my sheets and towels because they smelled like grease and the smell would not wash away. I had a similar experience with food grade grape seed oil, but only had to throw away 2 sheets after using it as body oil. I have a jar of pure coconut oil in my cabinet, I don't use it much, because it liquefies instantly and has to be wiped off. Maybe I'll use it as a pre-bath treatment. Everyone raves about coconut oil, for cooking and for wearing, so I should use it more than I do.

I don't like smelling like old potholders, so whatever benefits pure olive oil produces will never be mine. The Oluv scrub has a faint olive-y smell, but I avoid olive stuff like the plague (even shampoos and soaps). It is $22 for a 4oz jar, it is vegan, and I do recommend it, if you aren't olive-phobic like I am.
