St. Ives Even and Bright Pink Lemon and Mandarin Orange Scrub Review

One of the most affordable and effective exfoliators I have used. I know a lot of people have used the St.Ives apricot exfoliating scrub and find it very harsh because of the bigger bits of the apricot kernel In it. This one isn't as harsh it has lots of finer pink and white exfoliator beads in it kinda like gentle sand. I do have very dry skin and I like a decent scrub to remove dry flakey bits from my face. To me this is mid range on the harsh factor also I don't have sensitive skin so can't comment on that. The tube it comes in is mcmassive! 150ml. The tube sits on the lid and there is no way it falls over easily because the lid is big and sturdy. It's easy to squeeze out and get the right amount out.

They aren't lying when they say it has pink lemon and mandarin orange in it. It would have more of a citrus hit than a Californian orange farm. Its an instant pick me up. I scrub this round my face in small circular motions (avoiding my peepers of course) and rinse it off with warm water and voilà.. Dry flakey skin is gone and instantly brighter skin I was a bit sceptical at first about it being brightening..I thought pfffft $11.99 for this big tube of exfoliator (from the supermarket) it can't brighten my skin and exfoliate. But it can and does. It lasted me for months I actually brought a rather expensive exfoliator after it ran out (it was $58 for 50ml) and it doesn't do half the job that this one does. This has to be one of my favourite skincare products it's so cheap and effective

As winter is starting to take its toll on my skin, I had to find a good exfoliator that not only took care of my flaky skin (yuck!) but could also take care of my blemish spots and dark spots from pimples (double yuck) luckily I found this!

This exfoliating scrub did exactly that, it gently exfoliated my skin, clearing pores, removing dirt and flaky skin and I found that my dark spots were clearing faster than usual! An extra added bonus of this scrub was that it woke me up in the morning - the scent was beautifully fresh and citrusy!

I am already a huge fan of St Ives products so when this scrub came out I had to try it. This scrub smells so good, it smells sweet, fresh and fruity. It has tiny beads that exfoliate your skin and improve any dark spots. I found this scrub did wonders for my skin, reducing my breakouts and left my skin feeling squeaky clean. I purchased my scrub from Countdown 2 months ago and I still have quite a bit left. You only need to use a coin size amount and for the price ($12 or so) this scrub is a bargain.

This is my favourite of the St Ives Scrubs range! It smells yummy. has a great texture and leaves my skin feeling fresh & clean but not dry. I've been using it now for about 5 weeks & I have to say my skin is a little more even toned, although I would say it's polishing away imperfections. I do love it though & it's a part of my daily routine. although it's an exfoliator, it's very fine so not too harsh. I've even got malloMr onto it!

currently using this product love how the exfoliant granules are not too harsh but still gives a nice clean feel my skin did seem a bit brighter after using this I purchased on special and would re buy my skin was not over dry after this either the packaging is appealing and it smells okay too really like that this is not full of nasty chemicals.

I'm a huge fan of the st ives apricot scrub but I thought I'd try out something else! I knew I wouldn't be disappointed because I lovee the St Ives products. So I bought this and used it the next morning, it smelt sooo sooo yum! I also liked that the scrub wasn't as coarse as the apricot one, its really smooth and gently on the skin but it still leaves your skin feeling nice and soft and really clean :) although I do like this product a lot I haven't noticed any 'brightness' or 'even skin tone'.. Maybe not yet..

I love this product, I didn't think it would work as few actually do well with my skin type, as soon as I ran out I realized how much of a difference it made. Absolutely love this!

I quite like this scrub more than the apricot scrub which was too harsh on my skin. It cleans my skin very well and leaves a lovely fresh smell and feeling. It makes my skin smooth but I still suffer with acne so I find its great with blackheads instead.

Its a very gentle exfoliator perfect for my combination skin. I will purchase it again once I've run out .

St Ives is a family favourite brand. My mum favoured all their body lotions. When I first saw this in the supermarket I was curious to try it. I'm always keen to try new products from this brand. I did eventually buy it after much thought about it.

This scrub comes in a white tube. On the outside of this tube is this the St Ives branding. The tube comes in a 170gram so theres plenty of product to use in it. The texture of this scrub is light and creamy. This scrub is white coloured. There are no scrubbing beads in it like the apricot one. The scent of this scrub is like fresh lemons and mandarins. I enjoyed this scent.

When I apply this I always wash my face first. I put a little bit on my chin for five minutes to test it and it was fine. After that I smother my face with this scrub normally after a long day of wearing make up. After cleaning it off my skin felt clean and fresh. I didn't experience any dryness with this. I got mine for about 6.99 on sale so I was lucky at the time. I think it's still priced at the right price for it. My bottle has lasted me five weeks and still counting. I enjoyed using this and I would use it again.
