    I find this scrub very drying for my combination skin. It doesn't seem to remove all the dead skin nor the black or white head that were on my nose. It irritate my sensitive a little bit so use sparingly or once a week. If you're looking for a cheap scrub, than this would be borderline ok. Once I finish this bottle, I wouldn't repurchase this product again. I find it a waste of money and time when using it.

    I found St Ives Apricot scrub a little too abrasive for my sensitive skin. I loved the fragrance and the creamy texture though....maybe if I was in my twenties, :)

    I'm honestly a little wishy-washy on this scrub. It works really well, my skin is a whole lot clearer than it's been in ages...but it's so harsh that I worry I'm doing some damage. This scrub uses crushed walnut shells as an exfoliant, and they're rough and grainy, which is a bit much for my sensitive skin. I've noticed that I tend to overscrub my cheeks and not enough on my chin, and I'm trying to be more careful about it. After I use this, my cheeks are stinging, and lotion doesn't help. My advice? Know the areas where you need it, and go lighter everywhere else. I like to use it in the shower for my shoulders and kneecaps as well as my face. I'm using it three times a week right now, but now that it's been integrated into my routine, I'm cutting it down to two. It's a great product, it's helped my skin, but be careful with it. And unless someone can ease my unreasonable fears, I think that the next time I buy an exfoliant I'll go with microbeads.

    I didn't love this product. The scrub was a little too hard for my sensitive skin and I didn't like the fact there was no lather.

    Since joining CA a while back I've noticed this is still at the top of the list. It seems I'm in the minority.

    There's nothing wrong with it, per se, but for my sensitive skin it feels like I'm scratching off a layer.

    It was great when I was in my teens. But as skin matures....so must your beauty regimen.

    I prefer to be rubbed...gently...softly...versus sandpaper exfoliation.

    But that's just me.

    I used to buy this scrub and use it about 1-2 times a week as part of my daily face routine. After a while I found it really dried my skin, even if I cut down to using it twice a month my skin couldn't handle it anymore, not even the sensitive version.

    Beware if you have sensitive skin.

    I don't like or dislike this product, it simply is just not for me. I didn't find it worked with my combination skin and would work better for someone with dry skin. I didn't like the texture or smell either.
