Skinfood Exfoliating Scrub Review

When my old exfoliater finished I was excited to try this Skinfood one as I love all of the other products that I have tried in this range.

The packaging is appealing, simple and easy to use. I like that it stands with the lid at the bottom so you can easily get the product out.

The walnut shells are fairly large which for me was the downside of this product. When I was younger I really liked my exfoliators to be quite course which this product would have then been perfect for me however as I have aged I favored a finer exfoliator which is why I wouldn't purchase this again. I did like the creamy base as it feels like it nourishes as it exfoliates.

I love that it is made from natural ingredients and that it is a New Zealand company and I think for $13.99 it is a great price. Although it is not for me I would recommend to other people who like quite a rough exfoliating scrub.

I received this exfoliator in my Beautiful Christmas NZ box in 2015 and only just recently opened it... WOW! I was missing out, all this time! I don't use a lot of cleanser/exfoliator products but now I have used this one I don't think I can stop! My skin feels soooooo lovely afterwards! The walnut shell scrub cleans away any dirt from my skin without stripping it or being sore. The cucumber, honey and all the other lovely things in it make my skin feel smooth and soft afterwards, before I've even moisturised. Also love that it's an NZ company with such natural ingredients, and is animal cruelty free YAY! Absolutely in love with this skinfood exfoliator :D

Since I first bought this a few months ago I've been hooked.

This scrub has the walnut shell for the exfoliation so it has a decent grit unlike others that for my skin always feel a little under-whelming. But unlike other scrubs I've tried this is doesn't dry out my skin. A pea size amount is plenty for the face, and you just gently massage it around the face and rinse. It rinses from the skin easily and skin is left feeling soft.

When I use this scrub I feel like my skin comes alive, feels so soft and is so much brighter. You feel like your skin is renewed. It smells lovely and fresh with the citrus scent, and doesn't dry out my skin at all - and I tend to have quite dry skin.

This one is a holy-grail for me. Fantastic price and noticeable results

Oh I am in love with the exfoliator, I exfoliate at least every second day in the morning while showering and this product does not disappoint. I love that the exfoliant in the product is natural walnut shell rather than those horrible plastic microbeads that have gained so much media attention lately.

The product is very thick and creamy which helps to give an even application, there is also a fairly decent amount of exfoliators in the product which I love, so many scrubs out there have very few exfoliant particles in it compared to the solution which means you have to scrub for quite a while to get the desired result.

This product delivered on all promises, it cleanses, removes dead skin cells and debris whilst leaving my skin soft and smooth without irritating the skin, I can most certainly say that I have noticed a small reduction in my pore size and the amount of whiteheads on my cheeks which I can only put down to this product.

I've got this in the 100ml size, that I purchased from the supermarket. It is a really gentle exfoliater, and not harsh at all. It is quite a creamy scrub, with not too much roughage in it. So I do need to really use my fingers in circular motion on my skin to get the exfoliating benefits. I use this in the shower once I've cleansed my face, but I do think I could skip the cleansing and just go straight to using this instead, as it does seem to be more gentle than any other exfoliater I have used. I would definitely repurchase this, it also smells really nice!

I received this product in the goodie box a few months ago, and I absolutely love it! The formula is creamy and soft on my skin. I find my skin is a bit dry in the winter, and this helps clear away dirt and impurities, as well as keep my face smooth. The product smells nice and natural, and when in the shower this is the first thing I apply to my face. I find the scrub gentle and not harsh like other exfoliating scrubs. I like to use this product daily and love that it leaves my skin feeling fresh and clean! I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a nice affordable scrub that does not feel too harsh on the skin.

I received this exfoliator in a Goodie Box and was excited to try as I had seen the Skinfood brand around before and liked the idea that Skinfood is New Zealand made.

I like my exfoliator to have a decent amount of grit to is as I have blemishes and large pores that are easily clogged so like to exfoliate a few times a week with a good exfoliator. When I first tried this one I found it very creamy with a little bit of grit. It went on to my skin nicely but I couldn't help but feel it was more like a moisturiser with a bit of grit. As I have oily skin I just found it didn't go well with my skin.

I received this product in a Goodiebox (like so many others) and have been trying it out over the last few weeks. I've never really used a scrub before so it's an interesting experience for me.

The product is a very thick cream, and the scent isn't unpleasant. I like the ease with which it moves around my face, but there seems to be a lack of exfoliants as it is sometimes difficult to get enough 'beads' to scrub properly. I end up using quite a bit of product to get a decent scrub going.

I do like the fact that this is a natural product, and that it is New Zealand made. However I'm not convinced it is the be all and end all, and I'm going to be trying out other scrubs for comparison.

I got this product in a goodiebox and have been using it these past weeks. I honestly wouldn't buy it again, because it doesn't really do much for me. I wish the smell was a bit more pleasant and didn't smell like something my grandma would use. There wasn't much beads for how much of the product you usually use. I get pretty oily skin, and it basically isn't the right product for me.

I'd recommend it for people with more dryer skin, as it makes your skin more softer.

I got this scrub in a subscription box and I'm so glad I did,

I have very dry sensitive skin, my ph balance is not very good and this scrub I have found is fantastic on my skin,

It's not too harsh but still gives a really good scrub, it helps to reduce the dry patches on my cheeks, forehead and nose.

it has a thick cream texture which I love, It doesn't dry out my skin and leaves it feeling soft and smooth and without that tight feeling that I get from other scrubs I have tried.

It is not overly perfumed so doesn't irritate my skin at all

It is a fantastic made in New Zealand product and paraben free

I will repurchase as it is a great product and inexpensive
