I really liked this product! It was fairly cheap, easy to use and made my skin feel so soft. I would definitely recommend it!
Hear me out girls!
I used this product on a daily basis for years and thought it was amazing, until I went for post secondary schooling and received a diploma in Medical Aesthetics/Skin Care Specialist.
I would never, never, never buy it again and here is why:
The grains in this scrub are WAY too rough for your face. Although many of you who suffer from oily skin, many pimples/blackheads or blemishes in general think that this product works great, I know otherwise.
While it is believed that this product is good for removing oil, it also removes the good oils from our skin leaving it fragile, unprotected, raw, and therefore prone to comedones (pimples/blackheads etc). Although you may not see this with a naked eye, a trained professional can see the damage that using this causes. So while it is currently working for preventing acne, it is actually doing more harm than good (which you will be able to see in time). This abrasive scrub is hurting us, not helping us and. It also contains lots of alcohol which is extremely drying. It dries your skin out and dehydrates it (two different things. Contrary to popular belief, you CAN have oily skin that is dehydrated. Dry skin is a lack of oil while dehydrated skin is caused by lack of water). I am not a girl who only uses natural products, so I am not biased.
TIP: Go see your skin care therapist to discover your skin type/conditions and have them recommend products accordingly, professional products such as Dermalogica (worth the price difference). After using the right product for a couple months and your skin has had time to adjust, you will see a massive difference. I promise you will never go back, what do you have to loose? Give it a try!
In addition, you can download an app called Think Dirty and scan barcodes on beauty products in stores such as walmart, shoppers drug mart, etc to get the truth about what they contain, you will be surprised!
I've used this scrub for years off an on....I like to try new products! The tiny apricot grains gently exfoliate your skin, and it suds up well. Used regularly it will keep those blackheads at bay! Moderately priced too.
I get pretty dry skin in the winter time so st ives products are great!! keep your skin soft and moisturized!! Love the scrub and it smells so good!!!!
Great facial scrub! The scrubbing beads make me feel like I'm getting all the dirt out of my pores. Leaves my skin feeling soft and most importantly clean and blackhead free!
My skin gets very dry in the winter and this product is gentle enough to use a few times a week to ex foliage while not over drying. The smell is amazing. I highly recommend this product.
I generally have very oily skin and tend to get a lot of comedone's . This product definitely helps with removing the excess oil from my face and helping diminish the amount of comedones I get.
I love this product, I use it 2-3 times a week and keep it in the shower. It leaves my face feeling clean and refreshed. I repurchased this item over 6 times and I am definitely going to keep buying it.
