St. Ives Blemish fighting scrub

This product was recommended to me by a family member after I struggled with acne and blemishes for years. I have found this product lives up to its reputation. WHen I start my facial ritual in the evening I open this packet and travel to my happy place. The smell is fantastic, but subtle enough to not over power. The product consistency is just right to work with, meaning I can spend my time giving myself a good massage and not worrying about getting the product to those hard to reach crevasses. I have incredibly dry skin and I find this product is fantastic at moisturizing my skin and helping me to maintain the balance and healthy skin. I love this product and buy it everytime.

This review is for St Ives Blemish fighting green tea extract which is similar to the apricot but its more gentle. I havent found a topic for the green tea but because its quite close together so i would recommend using the green tea instead of apricot scrub if you find its too harsh. The sense is pleasant and the beads are amazing, its very tiny and gentle but you still can feel it, really nice and clean after wash. Nothing to complain about, love it.

this product is amazing I had doubts about trying it, but im glad I brought i,t it really does smell like apricots and the exfoliating factor is amazing ive never felt one so strong, I have no doubts now for its works amazingly good

Growing up I have always had acne prone skin / hormonal skin and dry skin. I almost gave up hope trying everything like proactiv and all. So I settled for something closer to home. St Ives apricot scrub, the smell is overpowering but it smells good enough to put on your skin - I like it. The thick cream comes out with tones of large granules which is great I guess because it does it better job for my skin. It has a great consistency when your scrubbing your face with in and the results are immediate, you don't have to wait one or two weeks for a better looking skin. My scars had faded as well as redness, acne and blackheads. It did come out drier than usual because I was using this twice everyday because it was THAT GREAT! but I counteracted that with a good based facial oil. I will always fall back on this product when trying new scrubs and exfoliaters because I know it will always work for me.

I have oily/acne prone skin and this works wonders! It's honestly the only acne-fighting scrub that I've noticed a difference with. I use this in conjunction with the St Ive's scrub that has green tea in it, the one that helps with blackheads and redness, and my skin is starting to look a lot better than it did a few months ago. I wouldn't recommend to those with sensitive skin as it's a very course scrub but for me it's just perfect! The smell isn't horrible or too strong either. :)

I've repurchased this after not using it for about a year. I brought it cheap from the warehouse, like $8. I honestly don't know why i stopped using this. Its the best! My skin always feels really clean after using this product. I've used other exfoliators, and they just don't do it for me. I have definitely noticed a reduction in my breakouts since I've started reusing this again, and my makeup has been looking so much better lately. I only use this 2-3 times a week. I have combination/normal skin, and this is the perfect amount of use for me. I am never going to stop using this. Don't know why I stopped in the first place!

I have very sensitive skin and have had no issues using this. I think it is amazing! I use it everyday and it leaves my skin feeling soft and clean. To make it less scratchy i put a little bit of water in my hand which sort of thins it out. This definately helps my skin a lot. It is usually on sale for $8 at countdown. A definate staple for me.

I like a good scrubby exfoliator and that's what this is - with the added benefit of the chemical exfoliation at the same time. Very effective. Sometimes I smear it on at the beginning of my shower (after washing my face) and let it sit on my skin like a mask, then scrub and rinse off at the end. Do be careful not to get it in your eyes as you can suffer a chemical burn from it!

I've been using this product for so long now and I can not live with out. Some people find the scrub to be too abrasive but I find that if you use this once a week and if you don't have sensitive skin it does what it says. It's also important to not scrub too hard as it definitely will be irritating. But it gets rid of the dead skin and after using it my skin feels so much smoother and soft!
