A delicious scrub that smells of fuzzy apricots & helps reduce breakouts before they even occur. Made with 100% natural exfoliants (like crushed walnut shell powder) for a gentle, deep cleanse.

Amazing exfoliating scrub

I love this product! I have been using it for a few years and it really helps with breakouts and preventing future ones. The pack size lasts ages and a small amount goes a long way. Its gentle enough to use daily or 3 times a week. The sandy / gritty bits leave your skin feeling smooth/ clean and refreshed and the smell is apricoty and smells so clean. I normally pick this up for between $8-$10 at Pak N Save.

Tips: A small amount goes a long way. I start with my face then drag any excess to the neck area

Baby Soft & Smooth Skin

Being quite a fan of the original St.Ives apricot scrub, I was eager to give this new version a go and see how it compared.

First impressions, it's A LOT like the original, so much so that it seemed just the same; Very similar packaging, the same natural apricot scent, the same thick, beige colored densely textured cream..

I did notice one difference though bewteen this new version of the apricot scrub and the original, this one seems to be finer and gentler.

This scrub is very grainy, it's one of the grainiest facial scrubs that i've ever used (along with the orignal version), you would think that it'd be quite rough on the skin, but despite it's coarse texture it's surprisingly gentle on the skin.

It does a great job of cleaning the skin deeply, thoroughly washing away a full face of makeup, and leaves my face feeling extremely, exceptionally & incredibly soft and smooth.

The softness & smoothness that you get with this scrub, I would compare it to that of a micro-dermabrasion treatment -level amazing.

As this scrub provides that intense re-surfacing effect, i'd confifently say that it'd be very helpful in reducing break-outs and blemishes, so as it claims. Also, it's affordibly priced, readily available from the local supermaket, and will go for miles. It's a big win for me!

St Ives Blemish Control Scrub

This smells just as yummy as when I was a teenager and used to buy St Ives in the single sachets to have "home spas" with my friends! Same yummy smell, same great result. My skin was so soft and smooth afterwards and it felt so clean!

Tips: It is so much easier to gently wipe off with a wet cloth than it is to try and just rinse it off!!!

Great Exfoliant!

I am very happy with this product! I started using it once I got back from a camping trip - my skin had broken out so badly!! The product has a thick and grainy texture. I did not find it harsh on my skin at all. I have had no irritation since using this product. The application is really easy and it does a great job of cleaning my skin as it is a deep exfoliation scrub. You don't need a lot of product as it spreads well. I find it handy because you can really feel where you are exfoliating; you can feel it working and it feels rather nice on your skin when exfoliating it in. The product has a yummy apricot scent! I use it every second day and I have had such great results! Within just a few days my breakouts had cleared up and my skin was in much better condition. It leaves me with soft and smooth skin. I thought it would be rough on my skin due to the nutty texture but I don't think it is. I like the packaging. I like how it has kept the original St. Ives packaging, and the brand and product are easy to recognize. I love that it is paraben and sulfate free with natural exfoliants. I love that it is non-comedogenic so I do not get blocked pores from the product as it deeply cleans pores! It is hypoallergenic so it is unlikely to cause an allergic reaction, and it has been dermatologist tested. It is a really affordable product, does wonders for my skin, easy to locate at a supermarket and a decently sized product for the price; so I will definitely be repurchasing.

Tips: I prefer to use it in the shower as it is much easier to wash all of the product off in the shower compared to over the sink. A little goes far and be gentle when rubbing it into your skin.

St Ives fan

I'm not sure if it's just the apricot but I've been addicted to st Ives products for ever. The containers easy to get the scrub out of and can squeeze it right out so to get you money's worth.

I find it leaves my skin feeling really soft and as my skin isn't that sensitive I like a scrub that I can feel like it's working. If your skins is sensitive would still be ok if you didn't scrub as hard.

I always use it in the shower so it's easy to just rinse off because of the walnut shell power is easy to remove.

Love the smell

Tips: Apply it to your face scrub it on STOP leave it on for a bit before washing it off this gives the ingredients longer to work on your skin aswell as just exfoliate.

Couldn't part with it

This is honestly hands down the best scrub I've ever used. I've been using this product for over 5 years now and I had discovered it through beauty bloggers raving about it years ago. To this day I feel like it's still raved about. It's such a good exfoliator but it doesn't dry out your skin. It's oil free so great for oily skin and perfect if you deal with acne because it does help to somewhat extent. Couldn't recommend it enough for people who deal with acne. It might not work too well if you have really sensitive or irritated skin

Tips: It's always on sale at the warehouse so get it when its on sale

St. Ives Blemish Control Scrub

This is a pretty great product. I have been using it for a while now and it's one of the few reliable scrubs that suit my skin. Out of an easy squeeze tube, spreads well and works like magic.It has a pleasant fragrance and it lasts me for a decent amount of time.
