This product is great value for money. It smells lovely and feels really natural. Although not my favourite scrub, it’s my go to when I need to reign in my spending. The scrub can be tough on your skin because it’s a little on the course side, so I would recommend applying gently so you’re not too harsh on your skin.

Tips: Use in the shower so you don’t have to worry about making a mess.
This product I brought from new world. It has a nice scent. It opens my pores and scrubs all the dead skin and dirt in my pores. Leaving my face and neck smooth and oil free for a little while. However after continuing with product it made my face become red. Once learning to use it only twice a week on my face it has helped with my skin.
This is a great exfoliator. It is quite thorough though so you wouldn't need to use more than once or twice a week. It can be quite harsh so don't scrub too hard. I also found this product is great for use on the backs of your hands as well to keep them super smooth.
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
Tips: Concentrate on the centre of your face and move the product out. The centre of the face is generally where more exfoliation is required :)
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.
Tips: Twice a week is enough, any more is overdoing it for your skin in my opinion.
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)!
Tips: Takes awhile to wash it all off
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.
Tips: Use once a week or once every two weeks
I know some of my friends love this product as they find it makes there face feel clean & smooth, & I'd have to agree with that it definitely does, however I find it a bit too harsh & when using it I really do feel like its scrubbing my skin away not a great feeling, so personally wouldn't use this again
