This is a very strong scrub. It says for use on the face, but I wouldn't. It's great on my legs as I tend to get ingrown hairs (from epilating) and this helps with those. The downside is that it's quite expensive to use as a body scrub as the small tube goes down very quickly.
The scent of this scrub is great, very pleasing smell.
Tips: Use on your body, not your face
This scrub has been very useful for me, and I just love the apricot smell it has. However, I don't use it on my face because it's a little harsh on the skin, so I use it as a body scrub instead. It's a little pricey, as I got a 150ml bottle from farmers for $12.50.
Tips: If you have any whiteheads on your chest area, I would recommend using this scrub and those lumps and bumps will be gone in no time!
I use to use this years ago as it was one of the only exfoliating scrubs around.. now there is so much choice. I did like it but thought the scrubbing beads in it were a bit to big for facial use. These days I just use this on my body and have a goodness brand exfoliant I use on my face which is more gentle.
I used this for a long time but have recently switched to St Ives Even and Bright Pink Lemon and Mandarin Scrub as I felt like trying a different fragrance for a change. The St Ives Even and Bright Pink Lemon and Mandarin Scrub feels a LOT more gentle on the skin and it smells a lot nicer! I would therefore not recommend the Invigorating Apricot Scrub anymore as there are nicer, more gentle St Ives products out there..
As someone who loves all things beauty and spends a lot of time looking after my skin, I almost feel bad about loving this product as I constantly hear bad feedback about it. I can see why people say this is a harsh and abrasive exfoliator, because, well, it is! But for me, when my skin is feeling dull or congested, one of the best feelings in the world is scrubbing away all that yuckiness with a good, hearty exfoliator. St Ives, leaves my skin not only feeing but looking fresh and bright. I use this once or twice a week and the generous sized tube lasts me over 6 months. This, combined with its cheap price tag makes this product such a bargain! It is also super handy that this product is available for purchase at Countdown and Pak n Save. Its been a staple in my beauty drawer for many years now and will continue to be for some time.
Tips: Be gentle! And don’t forget to exfoliate your neck, its just as important as your face.
This scrub actually made my face feel like it was on fire, im not sure why but it took a long time after i washed it off for my face to feel ok again. So dont recommend it was also a bit of a harsh texture.
Tips: Dont use if u have sensitive skin.
I know many people who have tried this so when my sister brought this home one day I was eager to try it. Being the type of person who didn't really ever have bad skin texture my skin suddenly became rough and flakey. This product polished my face and now it is extremely smooth and glowy. I will continue using this once a week since it is quite coarse compared to the rest of my exfoliants.
Tips: Start off with a small amount and keep adding when necessary. A little goes a long way.
I remember the article about this scrub and commented saying how I didn't like it.
Using it as a teen and in my early 20s I remember how badly my skin broke out using it so it was a product that wasn't on my radar until recently.
I stood in the skincare isle of our local supermarket looking at all the scrubs available and this one really stood out. It got me wondering, with my mature skin could it possibly work for me now??? So I made the purchase.
Boy am I glad I did! I started using this product once a week in the morning and within 2 weeks I noticed the difference in my skin. so that's only 2 washes. Now it wasn't less break outs that I noticed but it was how hydrated my skin was. My usual dry patches gone! My skin felt so incredible and soft.
The more I used it I noticed the less pimples I was getting and I was getting less blackheads also.
The formula itself is quite thick and well chunky. For a scrub it was no surprise to me. It was gentle and didn't feel overly harsh when washes my face with it.
I still only use it once a week which seems to be the perfect thing for my skin at the moment.
I've been using the St Ives Green tea scrub for a while and thought I would give this a try as the exfoliation is 'next level up' It's not something I would use everyday as its a really thorough exfoliation- perfect for after heavy makeup use or when needing a thorough cleanse. It has a lovely scent, and the bonus the exfoliant is walnut shell ground not plastic
Tips: A little goes a long way and watch out for your eyes
I absolutely LOVE this cleanser/exfoliater!!! Tbis2 actually does exactly what it claims to do withput2 being overly harsh and without stripping your skin. This is a mild exfoliate so if your looking for something heavier you would not like this but as a gentle/mild exfoliater it truly cleans and exfoilates. Will most definitely continue to repurchase and use this product and will continue to recommend this to family and friends
Tips: Great for your face but also for your chest, shoulders and upper back when feeling congested
