This scrub feels very nice on the skin. It is a coarse scrub so if you aren't used to that, or like it (something that really gets in there and exfoliates), I would probably suggest something that isn't as coarse. I used it as soon as I received it and it made my skin feel really soft, it did also make it look red after use, but that went away shortly. The only thing I don't really like about it is that it feels like it leaves a thick greasy film on your skin (on the product description it says it's a thin film). It felt so thick I had to wash it off with my shower gel.
