Just gone through my AC stash ... I need more hair treatments and maybe a body scrub - any suggestions?

Just had a sort out of Advent calendar and other stuff in my stash Grin - wow I have a lot of moisturisers! To be fair, I bought LF Advent because of the Elemis night cream which I love; also bought Elemis box for the day cream. Also I got the Lumene AC which has many moisturisers. I love skincare so that's all good.

What I don't seem to have a lot of tho is hair treatments - I got Phillip Kingsley Elasticiser and loved it but that's long empty. Ditto body scrubs - again I loved (and finished) the Rituals scrub in the LF AC.

So two questions - why don't they put more hair and bath products in the Advent calendars?

And more seriously, what can you recommend that you love (either AC discovery or regular purchase)? Nothing too spendy tho!

I really rate the OUAI hair mask, leaves my hair really soft and swishy. I has a Sisley white clay mask, think it was in a gwp, that was amazing, £76 though, was out of stock at SpaceNK too when I last looked.

Body scrub, I always use REN Moroccan rose, leaves your skin super-smooth and soft and smells gorgeous.

The best hair masks I have are the Christophe Robin ones, I love both the Prickly Pear Seed Oil one and also the Hydrating Melting Mask with Aloe Vera. I'm keen to try the new Sol de Janeiro butter hair mask as I love their shampoo and conditioner and really like the Cheirosa '62 fragrance.

In terms of body scrubs, I like the Elemis body polish in the frangipani monoi range. I also really like the Bomb Cosmetics body polishes in the big tubs especially the vanilla frosting and limelight ones. But my favourites are the sugar scrubs from Future Primitive. The 'Daily Grind' smells like an amazing coffee & walnut cake and leaves my skin silky smooth. Their website is offline for a reticle until the end of March and you have to be quick when they have stock as its handmade in small batches and goes out of stock again really fast.

Brilliant thanks both, will check those out. I love sweet smells for body stuff especially and I adore rose fragrance so these sound good :)
