I used to use this, but it didn't do that much, and i found that the pits felt like they were getting caught in my skin. My roomie (a guy) used to use it for a while and liked it, but his face is obviously rougher. He stopped too, though not sure why.
I love this stuff. It does a great job exfoliating and the smell is nice too. A major plus is that it's inexpensive and can be found at your regular drug store. I've been using this stuff for years for my skin. I used it just for my face in the beginning but I realized it just as effective if you use it on your legs right before you wax or shave.
Like most people, my face needs constant care. Its not perfect; its combination of dry and oil patches of skin. I used to buy the regular St. Ives apricot facial scrub, but it was too harsh for my skin. I found out about their sensitive skin one which I found it be more comfortable and easy on my face. The beads were not as hard as the regular skin, so it did not make my face dry at all. I love to use it during shower and before I go to sleep. It definitely leaves a clean and moisturized feel after washing it with water. I really enjoy it, especially at the price they sell. This is not only a great exfoliator, but a great cleanser. This is something I would highly recommend it to my friends and family!
i have sensitive skin and it left my face feeling way too dry.
it felt like i was rubbing sand all over my face
Like many of you, I've been using this for years. I find the beads a little harsh for every day use, so I just use it every couple days to exfoliate what my other cleanser doesn't get. The anti-acne one is fabulous too.
I bought a small bottle of this from Shoppers Drug mart because I wanted to try it out first. The price is pretty good.
I have regular skin, a little bit on the dry side. I think if you have oily skin this is a great product but for me it was too rough for my skin.
I don't use this exact product, but the one made for oily skin. Its absolutly great. Althought some experts seem to hate when scrubs have some of the rough exfoliants that this scrub contains, I find this scrub relativly gentle and effective. I love it.
I was starting to have problems with flaky, oily skin, and I went out looking for some new clenser. I found this, and now I can't go without it. I use it only in the morning (so as not to irratate my skin) and don't put make up like powder on until I have scubed my face with it. It creates an absolutly wonderful canvas for facial make-ups. This product has also cleared up my skin, minamizing my need for make-ups such as concealer. I recomend using it once a day, along with one of St. Ives Apricot Cleansers for your nightly cleansing. Definitly give one of St. Ives Apricot Facial Scrubs a try!
I absolutley love this stuff! I've used it since I was like 16! it's and old school beauty buy that never gets old!
I have been using St. Ives Apricot Scrub for years now! I always buy it when I see it on sale. I've seen it for two for one! It comes in a tub now too, which I think is better value for the price. But it is not expensive to begin with! It is a facial scrub, but I find it a bit harsh for my face (I use it on my face when I notice a lot of dry skin, but not often). I use it as my body exfoliator! I wax/epilate my underarms and legs all the time and I find this has been the best product for staving off those pesky ingrown hairs! I exfoliate almost every other day with this stuff! For the price, you can afford to slather it on all over. It makes my legs soft and smooth and I haven't had an ingrown hair for ages! I also use it after a bikini wax for the same reason... but EVERY carefully... :)
I've used other body scrubs, more expensive body scrubs. They do a fine job, but for the value and effectiveness I will be sticking with my St. Ives!
