My Favourite Body Scrub

Hello! I’m Natalie, and I’ve just started my journey as the marketing intern at Indie + Mae.

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been trying our products and discovering new rituals of self-care. One product, in particular, has become a little obsession of mine - the Rose & Peony Body Scrub.

At first, I thought it would feel like any other body scrub. But the first time I used it, I felt genuinely surprised. It didn’t just exfoliate. It also left my skin soft, hydrated, and glowing for hours.

Now, body polishing feels less like a chore and more like a ritual I look forward to. The floral notes of rose and peony create a moment of calm, while the nourishing oils keep my skin feeling loved.

 

Why I’m Loving This Body Scrub

The texture: The pumice powder works gently yet effectively, buffing away dullness. At the same time, shea butter and natural oils wrap my skin in softness.

The hydration: Most scrubs I’ve used left me grabbing body lotion straight after. This one feels different. Often, I don’t even need moisturiser. That’s why I’d call it the best body scrub for sensitive skin I’ve tried.

The scent: The fragrance is subtle and not overpowering. The rose and peony linger softly, leaving me with a touch of everyday luxury.

 

How I Use This Body Scrub

It’s simple, but the results are anything but ordinary. I massage it into damp skin in the shower, then rinse. Straight away, my skin feels smoother and brighter.

A little tip I’ve learned … polish your skin before shaving. The scrub helps prepare the surface, giving you a closer glide and longer-lasting results.

Sometimes, I finish with the Warm Vanilla Body Butter. Together, they create a complete self-care ritual that feels grounding and indulgent.

 

Why It Stands Out

I’ve tried plenty of scrubs, but this one truly stands apart. It’s handmade in New Zealand, crafted with hormone-safe and non-toxic ingredients. For me, that matters. I want to know exactly what I’m putting on my skin.

It also balances exfoliation with nourishment. Many scrubs take away, but this one gives back. My skin feels cared for, not stressed. And that, to me, is what makes it the best body scrub I’ve ever found.

 

Final Thoughts

I never expected to find a product I’d call my “holy grail” during this internship. Yet here I am, genuinely in love with the Rose & Peony Body Scrub. It’s more than skincare. It’s a ritual that makes me pause, breathe, and reconnect with myself.
