I wasn't surprised to see this in the featured products. I have been using it for years and wouldn't be without it! I have sensitive skin and blackhead trouble and the only thing that keeps them in check, without affecting my skin is Apricot Scrub.

Tips: Careful what other products you use at the same time as you can end up drying your skin out.
I have heard so many bad things about St Ives scrubs but they work a charm for me, removing the dead skin build up is a breeze. I'm trained in skin care as a beauty therapist and each to their own i say. This scrub does what it has to and isn't too harsh on my skin if used correctly.
Tips: Use it with warm water so it isn't too harsh on the face.
I discovered this little beauty by accident as I usually use Elizabeth Arden which is real gentle on my acne. It was an emergency purchase at countdown because I was clear out of face wash and St Ives was on special and cheapest.
While washing my face the beads in the cream felt so good on my face. I have a really oily skin and it felt as if my skin was being deep cleansed and all the crud of the day was just being washed away.
I love that the creamy consistency makes my skin feel like it doesnt need a moisturiser but I would never be that naughty :). The love the pleasant and gentle apricot smell. I usually steer away from fruity washes because I hate the feeling and smell of being dunked in a fruit salad, but this is just enough fruity for me.
I really love how I dont need alot of product so it seems my tube may last a good while. I dont know about you ladies but I absolutely love a surprise find that turns out to be a gem.
Tips: Massage in circular motions for about 1 minute to deep cleanse pores and clean away the day.
This is my go to facial scrub because it does everything it says it will and is in an affordable price range. My skin feels great after using this product. Dead skin is removed and my skin feels so smooth. My makeup sits so much better after using this. An added bonus is the pleasant apricot smell.
Tips: Use 3-4 times a week and apply using gentle circular motions
This has to be my go to product, I discovered this a few years ago and have never stopped using it. The invigorating scrub may be a bit harsh for some people/skin so I do recommend testing it by buying the miniature version first. I get asked what I do to my face to keep it so clear, and honestly this is one of the few products I actually use on my face, I use it 3 times a week. However, this is not just for the face, it is amazing to use on legs before shaving especially, you will get smooth silky legs, I also use it on my body if I am about to use and type of fake tan, it will remove all the dead skin cells and create a smooth canvas. I also discovered that it is AMAZING for an under arm pit scrub !!! It removes that dark shading (from shaving) and makes it feel smooth and clean!
Tips: Use as and arm pit scrub and a scrub for your body before shaving/tanning!
I have been using this product since my early teens. It is a must have in my toiletry, I take it with me where ever I go along with my Proactiv and other must haves. (even if its just for an overnight stay). I use it three times a week, moisten face with water, then squeeze a 10cent piece of St Ives Apricot scrub onto my fingertips then massage it onto my face for a good few minutes to make sure it is cleaning deep into my pores as well as helping to get rid of stubborn dead skin cells and blackheads. The smell of Apricots is very refreshing and after exfoliating my face it also feels clean and feels really smooth.
Tips: Sometimes I like to use this as a fascial mask, I leave it on for ten minutes then wash and rinse it off. It's really good if you feel like your skin isn't as smooth as it normally is, so doing this proberbly once a week may help get it back to feeling clean,smooth and soft as silk. :)
I have used this product many times. I find it to leave my face feeling refreshed, clean and the smell is amazing :) I also use it for my body as well as it's a great overall exfoliator. You only need a small amount for your face therefore this product is great value for the price as it will last a long time. Would def recommend it :)
This is a classic I am pretty sure it was the first ever facial scrub I tried and it is amazing. It has the perfect grit to cream ratio and leaves my skin feeling clean, fresh, make up and dead skin free.
I have never had problems with stinging or irritation using this and I sometimes have slightly sensitive skin
A full size tube will last me a good 4-5 months depending on how much I alternate with other cleansers and the smell is ok not too perfumed . I will forever be a apricot scrub user.
This smells delicious and is very effective but I would definitely not recommend it as a face exfoliant for those with quite sensitive skin as it is a little bit harsh. I can only use it once or twice a week, otherwise I find it too rough, and I only use it in the shower as, like someone else had mentioned, it is very grainy and a little difficult to get it all off otherwise. I will use this on other areas of my body as well before waxing and shaving because it is so good!
Tips: Not for sensitive faces!
As mentioned in previous reviews, I have sensitive skin. Although this isn't specifically for sensitive skin, it is always the one I use. I LOVE a good scrub and sometimes a sensitive one just doesn't cut it. This doesn't damage or dry me out and my skin feels like its had a new lease of life!
Tips: ALWAYS moisturise after using any facial scrub.
