St. Ives Exfoliating Apricot Body Wash Review

This lovely product came in the Top Rated BBBE. I have always had faith in St Ives products and this body scrub did not let me down.

I started it after finishing another particularly good body product, and while this one didn’t top that, it did come close. It comes in an easy to use flip top bottle -no issue to use on the shower with wet hands. The product is pale apricot in colour, and thickish. It is gritty enough to clean my skin without causing discomfort or fear of it blocking the drain. I don’t know what the gritty bits actually are, although it may be crushed walnut which isn’t ideal. The scent for me is delightful, I love it. I also love that it clings to my skin after drying myself.

I like the way my skin feels and smells after using this scrub.

I’ve been looking online and haven’t found an easy place to purchase it, or how much it costs unfortunately, so I don’t know if I’d buy it again or not. I would if it weren't too expensive I guess, as it is a very good product..

This is great to use in the shower, especially in the morning, the smell of apricots really activates my appetite even though I actually hate to eat them, just love their fragrance.

It performs well at not only deeply cleansing my skin but it also sloths away dead skin cells leaving me super soft and slippery once dried and lotion applied which I love.

The peachy orange, gritty liquid gives a slight lather when applied by hand and would imagine used in conjunction with a mitt or sponge would make even more of a bubbly situation if that is your thing.

Firstly, smells delicious!! Would purchase it just for the smell!! Secondly, it is a good body wash and perhaps if my skin wasn't so temperamental at the moment it would be a great body wash but as an exfoliant it is not hugely amazing. I still love it but not as a skin spot clearer.

I love the smell and the feel of this product, it left my very dry skin feeling scrumptious and smelling yummy

this is a good product and it does exfoliate, like that its natural ingredients but for me i found it dried out my skin all the time

I've been using St Ives since a teenager and have always found their products to be well priced and reliable. I would like to see them become more environmentally friendly with their packaging though. The exfoliating wash is gentle, yet great to use before fake tanning. It has a great texture and smells fruity, sweet. I haven't brought this particular product for many years, but remember it well.

i like how it uses jojoba beads to exfoliate instead of apricot kernal because it is gentler on the skin. the smell is amazing and when used with oatmeal and shea butter body lotion leaves my skin soft and hydrated all day. :-))

I like a coarser exfoliant so when I buy this I use it with shower mitts to get the right level for me :o) It smells amazing though so I buy it for that reason alone!
