The product comes in a nice squeezy tube,smells good, thick creamy consistency,and has brown exfoliating particles.Normally I use this scrub to exfoliate my body,I think it helps to keep in grown hairs at bay. I did use this scrub on my face when I first got into scrubs, it left my skin soft, smooth, and clear. After using this only a regular basis I did notice that my skin looked healthier.I will still go back to this scrub if I run out of my higher end exfoliators.

Tips: May help prevent ingrown hairs to some extent, if used regularly.
I love this brand of scrubs. I've been using these for probably 10 years. I usually buy the sensitive one but I bought this one in a giftset. It is a bit harsher then I'm used to and it did take me a while to get used to it but I love it now. I use this in the shower, every second day and just use a pea size amount after cleansing. The bottle lasts forever. I think I've had mine open for about 6 months and there is still a quarter bottle left so it makes this product really great value. I will definitely keep buying this product and other scrubs from this range.
Tips: Don't go overboard with scrubbing otherwise you may make your skin go red. I do like to focus on my nose and cheeks the most. I have more dryer skin around those areas and I feel it helps get rid of any flakiness.
This is a good exfoliater if you are looking for something cheap and easy you can get from the super market. It has a nice apricot scent and does a decent job of exfoliating the face. I have to say that I prefer the body scrub but would definitely re purchase this product if I couldn't afford something else.
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 love this! The texture is just right. It's grainy and moist, not too rough and clumpy. The price is not to bad for something of this quality. The smell is fruity. After exfoliating, my face feels smooth and tender. My face is neither irritated, nor inflamed which is what i look for
The micro-beads in this product are superheroes- they dig deep into your skin. While this may seem like a good thing it feels too harsh for the skin. I used this product for years, in awe at how soft my skin felt afterwards. I slowly began to realise this was just a rouse and it was damaging, drying and irritating my skin. I would leave the shower looking like I'd run a 20 km marathon, my skin was inflamed from being over worked. This product is great for a weekly- monthly (depending on your skin) clear out of deep skin to leave a blank canvas. I wouldn't recommend this daily for those with sensitive skin, I found it quite invasive. At the end of the day it depends how you like your skin!
Tips: This is great to target clogged pores around the nose!
Love the texture of the scrub for a body scrub and has a subtle smell, more almond scent with a hint of apricot. I find it too rough to use on my face, and needs a lot of water to wash off, however using it as a body scrub, it works wonders on my back and chest. Leave skin feeling clean and fresh. Product has a large opening, with a squishy bottle so easy to dispense - works well on a body puff or massaging into skin. I use it once week and enjoy great results on my back and chest, often these areas for me are sensitive to product, but no issues, have been using product regularly.
I used this product for a long time and at the time was very happy with it. I think it is a great product and really does exfoliate your face. Leaving with absolutely no dirt or dry skin. Can be very harsh on skin though and after using everyday i think it really should be used a couple times a week so that you can give your face a break from the harsh texture. It is fragrant and comes across as very natural. I think it would work best if used with a gentle face cleanser so that it can work well with your skin.
Quite good face scrub Good to use everyday It cleaned my face nicely The beads wernt too harsh for my skin Nice clean soft feeling afterwards Will totally buy again as is great for the cost :)
This product is definitely addictive, it leaves such a nice and smooth feeling after use. I have used this product over and over because of this effect however I have quite clear skin so don't know what the results of clearing up skin would be like.
Tips: Don't use it more than it says!! It is quite rough and although it makes you feel like its working so well you don't want to scrub off the new skin layers underneath as this will make your skin worse!
