This is a great classic. I use this about once a week, and it's very effective at slothing off dead skin on my face. 'I think that the formula isn't too rough and it has a nice smell. It's cheap as well, which is always a nice thing.
This product contains crushed apricot seed shells, which are extremely jagged and sharp. They also leave microscopic tears in the skin. I definitely would NOT use this on my face or body for any reason whatsoever. Yes, it's a cheap product. There's a reason for that. They use the leftover apricot seed shells from other industries and use them in this. So essentially, they're using a waste product that would otherwise be thrown in the garbage or incinerated in your skin care product. Nice. Sure, it might be effective now. But can you imagine what your skin is going to look like after tearing it up day after day with this stuff, year after year?? Hell no, not for me. This is right up there with scrubbing your face with a handful of beach sand. I think we all know what THAT feels like if we get it in the wrong place and it rubs our skin off.
I tried this stuff quite a few years ago, before I knew the facts about apricot scrubs (and the same goes for all of them, no matter what brand), and found that there are much more effective products for exfoliation which use synthetic beads that are perfectly round and smooth. They exfoliate without tearing the skin and leave a very smooth finish to it. Clay masks also exfoliate beautifully, along with oatmeal scrubs and very finely milled, raw almonds, hazelnuts and sunflower seeds.
This product is not something that should even be on the market, really. I could never recommend it to anybody. My worst enemy, maybe hahaha
This is hands down my favorite scrub. I have been a loyal user of this product for years and I love it. It gives my skin a squeaky clean feel. I have acne prone sensitive skin and it works very well for me. It is affordable, effective and the quality it good too. Try it!!
This is really my favorite facial scrub. The quality is top of the line and the price is so cheap. It's probably the cheapest scrub around with the best quality. I would say it's worth every penny and more.!
well......easily the best scrub around. leaves your skin feeling fantastic and moisturized, without being greasy at all! Affordable and great!
Great scrub for a great price. This leave my skin feeling squeaky clean and very soft. I love it and would definitely recommend it to anyone.
I've decided to try out this products due to the great reviews it has. I have combination skin, very oil in my T-zone and dry on my cheeks. I find the scent a bit too artificial to my taste. The price is very decent for the product. However, I find the beads too rough and harsh for my face. For that reason, I don't recommend this product for a facial scrub. (It is a good body scrub on the other hand!)
I have very dry,oily skin.I use this face scrub every day.It doesn't dry my face out like most scrubs do.When i am done using it ,my face is actually soft and smooth.I would definitely recommend this product to my friends.
This is, hands down, the best exfoliator I have ever used.
I use it in the shower on my face and all over my body.
It exfoliates like CRAZY! You probably didn't even realize you had so much dead skin! It makes your skin extremely soft, and takes away all the flakes and dryness.
It's not something you can use everyday though because it's very harsh on your skin (Unless you get the sensitive skin kind) to use so often.
It's also great to use on your legs and armpits before shaving so your razor doesn't get as clogged up with deoderant, lotion, and dead skin.
Like all exfoliants though, make sure to use a moisturizer immediately after use to make sure your skin doesn't dry out.
P.S. It's EXTREMELY cheap! I usually get mine at Walmart for $3 :D
This face cleanser is really a great bang for your buck. It works well to exfoliate the dead skin off with the tiny bits in the creme. I tend to use it every other day rather than daily since I don't like to exfoliate daily as I think the skin needs a break every other day. The scent is nice and fresh. I would recommend this to anyone. Sometimes a cleanser can throw my skin off balance and actually create break outs. This one doesn't do it at all so that makes it okay in my books.
