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.

An Oldie

This keeps re appearing I am sure it has been featured before I first saw it when I was about 12. Back then I used it and it was super harsh I think because the exfoliant granules were sharp but they have since changed the packaging and formulas. I have tried several of these and I like them because the exfoliant granules are natural making it good the for environment and my skin always feels so nice and smooth and clean following the use of this. would re buy.

Just another scrub!

The packaging is great, nice and clear to read and a decent size bottle! Smells fruity and wasn't too strong. I used the product every second day and found it left my skin quite smooth but I definitely needed to moisturise straight away. I didn't find it helped my skin too much and would probably only buy again if I couldn't find another scrub the same strength.

It's not too gritty, but enough to exfoliate almost daily. My skin is combination and I found I wasn't so oily throughout the day, but for me it was quite drying, so I would definitely recommend using 2-3 times per week only.

Tips: Use in the shower as the beads wash off far more easy than over the sink.

St. Ives Blemish Control Scrub

The Scrub comes in a tub container, with 150ml of the scrub in it. This was my first time using a scrub as I'm more used to Clean & Clear Facial Cleanser. The scrub make my face feel soft and look awake, the smell of apricot helped to achieve it. I used the amount that would fit the tip of my forefinger so the scrub would last a while.

Tips: I found it easier to wash off in the shower than the sink.

Smells good

A nice product and has the added benefit of fighting blemishes. I think it did a good job of helping with breakouts and skin feels so smooth and soft afterwards. I probably wouldn't use this anymore as my skin can get a little too dried out from it, but I think it would be fine if I just used it from time to time. When I needed to help with breakouts it absolutely helped keep them at bay so great if that is your main focus!

Tips: Great to keep in the shower!

St Ives Blemish control Scrub

I love the way my skin felt after using this scrub for the first time. I've been using this every second night since receiving this product to trial. My skin seems to like it. I often find I react to most scrubs. But this is gentle. I love the way my skin feels after using it. So smooth and fresh feeling. Ive also been having a few hormonal breakouts and its helped so much with this. So pleased to finally find something I can use on the regular. It also smells great and is an affordable option. Can't fault this product.

Nice basic face scrub

This is good value for money and it will last a long time. The packaging is pretty basic and not all that appealing. However the product itself was really nice to use. It left my skin feeling reall good! I could feel it working and i love how clean, soft and smooth my skin felt after using it.

My skin loves

I have very sensitive skin which is quite picky when it comes to skin care products so I generally stick to the same ones. I had seen this instore for a while and always wanted to try it because of the yummy apricot smell but never grabbed it because I had one that worked and didn't want to risk it.

I was lucky enough to get this to trial and my skin actually loves it! I do only use it once every two days as this is what it says because it is quite a 'harsh' exfoliant. Usually I would use this sort of product everyday but this is still working for me.

You only need a dollop for it to lather over your whole face. I like to scrub it in for a bit and then leave it for a minute or so. This leaves my skin feeling almost moisturised and super soft when I take it off.

I find it is also good at removing any excess makeup left on my face.

I really do like this, so does my skin. I think the price is pretty reasonable so I probably will repurchase once I run out!

Tips: Follow the recommendation of only using alternate days - the scrub is too harsh to use daily!

not too bad

Decided to give it a go as it was on special... very gentle smell, the granules are fine and seem to make a great exfoliant as my face feels pretty good after using it.

Tips: Make sure you rinse your face well a few times, as sometimes the fine granules can cling and you notice them later on..

Great value scrub that does the job.

This scrub unblocks my nose and chin pores, smooths out those forehead bumps, and rinses off nicely. It is better than the more expensive Neutrogena scrub which dries out my skin. A great, reliable, go-to scrub. I use it 2-3 times a week and get good results from it.

Best scrub for my blackheads

This may not be my favourite scrub, but have been using it for awhile. It's good for your old mate the stubborn blackheads! This is why I still use it!
