Lovely scent - not what I expected though!

I've used St. Ive's Scrubs since I was a teenager, and they've always featured heavy crushed-seed/shell particles, so when I first dispensed this product into my hand one sleepy morning I assumed I'd picked up the wrong bottle, because the scrubbies were nowhere to be seen! Instead there's a rough cream that does polish your face, but otherwise leaves me a little unimpressed, somehow.

It smells fine - slightly lotion-y with a refreshing citrus overtone. It feels fine - creamy but with teeny scrubby particles. It's fine on skin - doesn't dry me out, scrub me raw or overload the moisture. But that's the problem. It's simply....fine. Unremarkable, in a market crammed with remarkable products.

I'll probably not repurchase this, but I'll use the bottle.

Tips: If you're interested, just buy it - you won't get a sample, and my big thing with scrubs is that if you don't like them on your face, you can always use them on your feet.

Good and affordable

This scrub is super affordable and very gentle. I have also tried the St. Ives apricot scrub. However, I prefer this one as it's a bit more gentle and suited for people with sensitive skin. I like it for this reason. It gives your skin a good clean and leaves it feeling smooth, if you want a deeper clean I would recommend the apricot scrub.

Amazingly refreshing

This is amazing, I'm used to high end exfoliators and borrowed some of this while staying at a friends house and I went straight out and bought two bottles!!

It feels amazing on your skin, silky feeling when applying and washes off perfectly so your skin feels clean and refreshed. Not only does it do the job but the smell is to die for, it has a beautiful citrus smell.

I have sensitive skin and this did not irritate it at all, no breakouts no problems.

This product is well worth trying and is a good price. I picked mine up from Pak n sav, it's a good treat for the trolley.

Tips: I use mine twice a week in the shower after cleansing.

St Ives Scrub

Im a sucker for a good face scrub, seems as im a very oily type of person and my face tends to breakout alot for alot of reasons and finding something good that works is always hard because some products make me break out aswell. So i was a bit weary when i first brought this product but it is my holy grail and i absolutely love this, i use it every night in the shower and every mornig when i wake up. It does feel gritty because of the exfoliating beads but it still does a very good job for me! It left my skin so smooth and silky! And can clear it right up. Its also good after wearing a full face of make up just helping to remove all the hidden makeup and oils my make up removers couldnt get off! Would 10/10 recommend using this.

St Ives Even and Bright

I didn't even know this existed until I was staying at a friends and thought I would nab a bit of her scrub. What can I say - I was hooked.

The scrub smells delicious. So fresh and is invigorating.

Love the fact that it doesn't use microbeads. I spent quite some time using pricey exfoliating scrubs because I only wanted to use washes that do not have microbeads and was unsure. Once I found this in the supermarket at a decent price it answered my woes.

I have oily skin and this works really well for me. My skin is also a bit sensitive so the scrub really is the perfect level of scrub for me. It is not super rough - definitely gentler than the St Ives apricot scrub which is another plus. I use it daily and haven't had any problems as of yet.

Packing is perfect, white squeezy tube for the product and it comes in a 150ml size. For around $10 it is a great bargain and I will continue to buy.

I highly reccomend.

Tips: As always - look out for the specials! Being in the supermarket it is often on sale.

Smells like summer!

This sweet sunshine in a bottle is such a relaxing yet satisfying scrub!

The scrub itself it's amazing fine grains that you work gently into your face and the smell of grapefruit just lingers through out as you massage it in.

I didn't see results until a week later after using 3times a week.

I have been using it for 1 month now and my skin is alot smoother and clearer!

This would work wonders on any skin type, I guarantee it :)

Tips: Use 2-3 times a week x Thats all that is needed

Goodbye Blemishes

This face scrub has a great thick and creamy consistency with natural exfoliants that really smooths out skin.

This has helped brighten my complexion as I have a slighly un-even skin tone that can look quite dull.

This has really helped get rid of redness and marks from any breakouts and blemishes.

This is a great buy as it is very affordable, retailing for around $8 - $10 at supermarkets.

Cleans well, but drying with regular use.

This mixes with water to form a creamy consistency. It has a faint citrus smell and some grainy bits in it that exfoliates the face. It is good at removing dead skin, but I find it harsh and drying if used everyday. I don't notice a brightening effect either, just clean skin.

Tips: 1. Use weekly if you have sensitive skin.

Goodbye Blackheads

I've brought this at least twice now so I really enjoyed this product. After using it my face always feels so nice and smooth! I love scrubs as I'm always plagued by blackheads and find it can be the best way to keep them at bay. That being said, I don't use this everyday as my skin is quite sensitive and it can be a little drying, more like every second or third day. It has a nice smell that isn't too over-powering. I also love that it doesn't use micro-beads. Definitely one of the best scrubs I've used.

Tips: For more sensitive skin I would recommend not using it every day.

Not one of my favourite St Ives products

I have said before that I am a sucker for St Ives products and when I spotted this in my local supermarket I grabbed it to try as I had not seen it before.

However, it didn't live up to what I was expecting, yes it was a good scrub that cleaned my skin deeply and left it very clear and smooth but I did not notice any evening or brightening to my skin as the bottle suggested.

It did have a lovely fragrance and felt nice to apply so would probably repurchase if it was ever on special as I just like the deep cleanse that these scrubs provide, however for the claim side of it I am on the fence.
