St Ives Invigorating Apricot Scrub Review

I have used this for 5 years and never looked back orused anything else. I had such problems with my skin and then started a cetaphil routine and added this into the mix! The consistency is just right, it does not have a strong scent and is perfect for use in the shower, or for a more rough clean I use it out of the shower too. So you can do a few things with it. I love it so much my partner even got me two bottles of it for christmas! Highly recommend

I have used this for years now. I have tried all sorts of other brands and scrubs but I always come back to this one. Excellent texture, smells great and always leaves my skin feeling smooth and refreshed.Great pick me up for your skin especially if your feeling a bit blah.

This scrub does exfoliate. I'll give it that. I used it for years once or twice a week and it helps to smooth your skin. But the grains it uses to exfoliate are crushed apricot pits which are tiny but can be quite sharp and jagged. You don't feel it when you're using them but it can cause "micro-tears" in the surface of your skin and in the long run isn't great for you! I found this out after reading about the scrub once I noticed it wasn't doing anything about my redness on my face... in fact it was making it worse, and that's why!

My go to exfoliator. Does the job and even better, it smells great. Makes your skin look beautiful and smooth. You do not need to use much of it- a little goes a long way. Only needs to be used about 1-2 times a week as overuse can damage the skin as it is a harsh product (needs to be to be able to remove all your dead skin)!

This just did not work for me, I had heard lots of great things about this but it wasn't right for my skin. I have dry, sensitive skin and this scratched and dried out my skin but I would recommend it for other skin types. It does smell really good though and has a good texture for an exfoliator.

St. Ives is a favourite brand of mine that I use daily. I love how their products contain mostly natural ingredients, and are gentle on my skin. I use this invigorating apricot scrub once a week or once every two weeks to keep my skin glowing and acne free. It really works! For me at least. And I have heard many good things about it from friends and family too. I wouldn't use it too often as it could irritate the skin and cause it to dry out if used more than twice a week.

Love this scrub because it has natural ingredients... the scrub is light but grainy so it takes off dead skin and dirt well... smells lovely.. and leaves the skin feeling totally refreshed and renewed.... the difference is immediately visible and i would recommend this to all my friends... it has also been 100% dermatologically tested... and i think an all round great product....

I did really enjoy using this product when I had it but it wasn't a product that made me re-purchase straight away. I would use it again as it is one of my favourites so far but I will still look for an alternative first. It is a good face wash it does clean your face well but not like you could see really good results even after you've used it for a while

I found this facial scrub quite un-impressive, it was almost like a scrub that you could make at home. It didn't leave my skin 'radiant' but the beads did exfoliate well enough. I have quite sensitive skin so this product could not be used daily (even though it said it could be used daily on the packaging) it made my skin feel stretched and dry.. not ideal.. However, that being said, if this scrub is used once every few days it could well serve its purpose well.

This used to be my facial scrub of all time and then it started to dry my skin out. Going back a few years though, I loved the granules in this scrub which made me believe that my skin was getting cleansed and exfoliated but wasn't worth the end result. Dry skin!
