review

this scrub has been around for so long ! ive used it for year and have to re purchase some as i love it. you have to be careful not to over use it though due t the fact that the beads are more rough than some other products, but it really leaves your skin super soft

Tips: also smells really nice and refreshing which is a bonus

Scratchy!

I'm not a fan of this scrub. The exfoliants seem really scratchy on my skin and I didn't like the smell of it, It also didn't seem to be actually cleansing very well either. So wouldn't buy again. But I do like some of the other St Ives range of products.

That's a shame! It is quite a strong exfoliant and not for everyone though. I'm sure there will another St Ives exfoliant which is gentler that you might prefer :)

Great Scrub - Especially the Acne Focused One!

This little scrub is a life saver. Available from most supermarkets you can pick it up sub $10 on special most weeks.

The scrub is nice and coarse (without being too scratchy) and leaves the skin feeling light and bright. Easy to apply and remove. In the shower it's an easy wash off, if you are doing it at a basin make sure you have a soft cloth and use lots of nice warm water.

Once you're done, make sure you use a very good moisturiser - if you don't the scrub can be a little drying.

I use the acne focused apricot scrub to prevent any break outs. I defintely notice the difference when I don't use it (more spots, more redness).

Tips: Don't use it too often - otherwise it can dry out your skin and cause more break outs. I use 2-3 times per week (I time with hair wash days to remember!).

And, don't forget to moisturise!

St Ives Apricot Scrub

I have been using this product for a few years now and absolutely love it. Face feels smooth, soft, clean & refreshed after use. Takes care of blackheads & dead skin. I find as I grow older I need to use it more often, used to be once a week but now its twice a week.

Tips: Must remember to use a good moisturizer after the scrub.

Pretty good stuff!

I use St Ives products a lot, and this is not an exception. I find it has a lovely subtle fragrance, not too hars, as others may be.

I had reviewed this when I first joined BR, and had said that it didn't smooth over skin as well as other scrubs I had tried, but it is a good gentle scrub, and using constantly, does make a difference to your skin's appearance, and brings through the younger, fresher skin.

Its cheap enough to use often, and is definitely worth the cost. Easy to use, and overall, pretty good.

Deep scrub!

This scrub is a great pre-tan exfoliant. The beads can be quite rough so I would not recommend using it on your face or areas of overly sensitive skin but elsewhere (legs, arms, etc.) it's great. The formula is quite creamy despite the rough beads so a little does go a long way and, unlike other exfoliants I have tried, it doesn't leave my skin red and irritated afterwards. The scrub does have a pleasant smell, more of a subtle fruity scent than a strong apricot one, I also don't find that the scent lingers after being washed off. Overall I really like this scrub, it leaves my skin super smooth without irritation and you only have to use a small amount each time you scrub!

Tips: Use before you fake tan, makes it last much longer and your skin feels super soft!

The only one I use

I found this face wash several years ago and it's the only one I have used since. Most other brands really dry my skin out, or I have a reaction to them, but this is the only one I have found not to. It leaves my skin feeling clean and smelling nice, and it is a great price too. I love the feel of the scrubbing beads too, it feels like it is really cleaning my face properly

Great face scrub.

I have heard so many bad things about St Ives scrubs but they work a charm for me, removing the dead skin build up is a breeze. I'm trained in skin care as a beauty therapist and each to their own i say. This scrub does what it has to and isn't too harsh on my skin if used correctly.

Tips: Use it with warm water so it isn't too harsh on the face.

Classic and simple

I have been using this product probably about good 10+ years. It works, and I love it using on my face. After feeling of clean refreshing face is great. Wish they have this product in bigger packages so that can be used in shower without worrying that you need to put product on shopping list just every few weeks.
