If there's one drink I've been relishing during pregnancy it's a virgin mojito, the Queen of all mocktails. Ain't nothing like lime and mint muddled together to make you feel like you're on holiday so you can imagine my delight when Body Shop announced their latest limited edition collection, Virgin Mojito*. Created with base ingredients of zesty lime and fresh mint from the Caribbean team Body Shop couldn't have hit the Summer scented nail on the head better if they'd tried. I've been testing out the body scrub and body sorbet from the five product strong collection and must say I'm pretty impressed. 

Now I'm pretty diligent when it comes to body moisturisation but exfoliation is another matter, is anyone else a poor show on the body scrub front? I could however become a convert with the Virgin Mojito scrub, not only is the scent heavenly but it's incredibly light in formulation, in fact it's completely different to The Body Shops usual scrubs which can be heavy and a tad oily in consistency. The tiny grains in this scrub leave skin silky smooth while the whipped, gel like texture is just dreamy, perfect for those humid balmy days which seem to be making an appearance right now. 

If you're a Cagney and Lace regular you'll know how much I dig a body butter (just read my empties posts) so I must admit a Body Sorbet isn't something I'd usually gravitate towards. That being said this light, almost frosty formula still packs a moisturising punch whilst being incredibly cooling - ideal for taking on holiday or on swollen pregnant legs. Take your pick ladies, I know which I'd prefer!

What do you make of the new Virgin Mojito collection? Are you a huge mocktail fan like me?
