This scrub removes all the dry skin from my face during the winter months leaving it smooth and exfoliated making it easier to apply makeup and moisturizers.
This scrub I use every other day. To start off, I have acne prone but dry skin that is also really sensitive, but it doesn't irritate it further, and my skin is noticeably smoother and softer after I use it. The texture is quite coarse and grainy, so I don't need a lot of it to exfoliate my face, and the tube has lasted me quite a while...as a matter of fact, after more than a year, I still haven't finished it yet! An excellent product that I would definitely repurchase, although I wouldn't recommend using it daily/more than once daily as that may be a bit too harsh on the skin. This cost me around $3 dollars I think on sale, and that's SUCH a good deal for a great scrub, especially since I have tried more expensive products that have not worked nearly as well.
I wouldn't recommend using this everyday since it can dry out your skin. However, I use this once or twice a week and it exfoliates my skin really well and leaves it smooth and cleansed.
very affordable, cleanses well and you can feel the apricot pieces scrub your face. After your face feels so soft and clean.
I Love the St. Ives Apricot Scrub!!!! I find that most facial cleansers and body washes that you buy with micro beads or scrubbers are not as effective as the the St. Ives scrub due the fact that once you wet the wash or scrub in your hands the micro scrubbers tend to melt away and do not give you that freshly scrubbed feeling. The St. Ives scrub allows you to wash your face and KNOW that it is effectively exfoliating your skin and cleaning. It is perfect for those who struggle with blackheads and pimples or oily skin. I always feel clean and refreshed after using the St. Ives Apricot Scrub.
This is a product that I personally choose not to use ON MY FACE, as the scrub is too hardy for my sensitive skin. Once in a while I will use it one my arms or legs where it works very well. My husband, however, loves the product, and uses it almost daily to exfoliate his scalp after shaving. He has done this for 4 years now and has never had any trouble with his skin. I like the price for the amount that he uses :)
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.
This scrub overall was okay. I found that it didn't do much for my skin and the apricots were a little rough on my skin. I went to a beauty class and the lady had said that the apricot pieces are harsh for your face and could cause damage. So she suggested to use it on places that are a bit rougher like your elbows and knees to exfoliate the dead skin so that way it can be much smoother. So that is what I have started to use it for and it works pretty good for that purpose.
I have used this product on and off for the past few years. I love the smell and the scrub is great. My only complaint is that the product doesn't completely keep my skin clear. It's great to use once a week or so as an exfoliant.
