St. Ives Exfoliating Apricot Body Wash Review

This is a old favourite and for the price you can't go wrong!!!

The scent is heavenly and really perfect for gently exfoliating all year round! !

In summer I'll pop my exfoliating gloves on and apply a squirt to my gloves for a extra good exfoliation!!

The body wash itself spreads a long way and is very gentle on my sensitive skin too! Lathers nicely on a sponge and leaves your skin glowin and smelling yummy!!

I bought this as I am a big fan of St Ives body wash, particularly the citrus one which smells divine. I sniffed this one before buying it and it was very promising indeed - a fresh apricot scent that was not sickly sweet.

Rather than being gritty, this uses microbeads for exfoliation. It's gentle but effective, removing dead skin easily. It's gentle enough to use everyday, though I will often use this prior to fake tanning to ensure a smooth surface for tan application. It does not feel drying, even on my scaly winter skin.

I'll be buying this again - it's cheap and effective and smells great.

I love everything apricot and this is no different. It smells amazing and is so gentle. It cleans and exfoliates without drying your skin. I use this every second day in the shower then moisture and my skin is polished and healthy looking all day. It is in the supermarket and you can often purchase it on special which makes it even more affordable.

yes i found it super good. Full body Exfoliation costs a fortune in Salons and with this u get exact same feel. I have been using this since an year now, and it has helped me get rid of bumps and dry patches on my body. Specially my legs feel super smooth and after shower oil just sinks in so easy into my skin. Again this is one thing that lasts me about 2 months alternating between a creamy wash and an exfoliant. My hubby loves it too, since he has dry skin and the smell is so gud. I will continue using and raving about it in front of my friends. that price and naturalness is unmatched for that quality product.

I really liked this body wash! It really feels like its getting in there and scrubbing alway all that nasty dead skin and other yuckys. It has a really suttle smell that you dont really notice which i like as some body washes have such a strong sickning smell to them . Im the crazy lady thats always down the beauty isle in the supermarket smelling all the body washes before i decide what one to buy lol. anyhoo its a great over all product and i got it in the massive 1L bottle so its definatly going to last forever.

I have been using St Ives products for many years.

I like many of their body washes, I do have sensitive skin and have never had a reaction to any of their products.

I like the apricot scrub in particular as it is a great exfoliant which is not too harsh. It leaves the skin feeling smooth and soft and helps keep away spots and ingrown hairs.

This body wash also has a great scent which is not too overpowering.

The reason why I love this shower gel so much is because of the SMELL <3 I love the St Ives peach range and this shower gel is soooooo beautiful! It also does an amazing job of exfoliating the skin gently, I use a body puff alongside this product and my skin is always so smooth and luscious smelling after using it :)

This is my new most favourite thing in the world! It works so well. Keeps my skin lovely and smooth without being to harsh on it. Smells delicious, just right and not too strong. Unlike a lot of exfoliators, i am able to use it pretty much everyday which leaves my skin feeling wonderful with a small hint of sweet apricot. Price is great and i can usually pick it up from the supermarket for about $5.00. Lasts quite a while so it is great value.

I love this body wash! The apricot smell is amazing and the exfoliating beads make my skin feel amazing after everytime I use it. It is such a great price and even if I don't need more I often buy it when it goes on sale at Countdown cause I know I will use it.

Now I am not a big fan of apricot as a scent but I am in love with St. Ives products because I own the foot and face scrubs they do and just had to try this exfoliating body wash. I usually try to exfoliate my body two or three times a week but with the St. Ives Exfoliating Apricot Body Wash it is almost effortless to do it daily. I paid $5.99 for this but in my opinion is worth the money for the results you get.

I am not a fan of the bottle shape because when my hands are soapy they tend to act like butter fingers and it slips through my grasp and more often then not cracks the cap. The flip top cap can be quite hard to open at time especially with soapy hands. At times too much product can come squirting out when you squeeze the bottle because the hole I find is too large. I would prefer a pump bottle to keep wastage to a minimum. I love the colour of the body wash and the tiny beads inside. It is fresh and vibrant looking without even using it yet. The apricot smell is very prominent and is for me a bit over powering but only because I dislike apricot scents. Once I get past the smell I trudge on with body wash squirted in to my loofah.

I can feel instantly the beads working on my skin. It exfoliates all dead and dry skin off my body leaving a fresh smooth canvas in its wake. It removes all the dry patchy skin that I have and doesn't leave it irritated like other exfoliants do. My skin feels so refreshed and nourished after using this. It's almost like it gave it a new lease of life. The only reason I give it these kisses for would I use it again is purely for the scent nothing more. It really is a wake up in a bottle.
