Skinfood Exfoliating Scrub Review

A tube with a flip top lid for dispensing and storage as it sits flat on the lid. The tube is white with the iconic Skinfood logo of three teardrops in 3 Shades of lime green each in 3 different sizes, silouting each other. Black and lime green writing on front with a brief description and @ back with ingredients & some brief instructions. New Zealand brand and made, animal cruelty free and natural. Although ingredients are totally not organic & are synthetic. Including fragrances. Has lime,manuka honey,orange blossom,walnut shells,aloe vera&cucumber; extracts. To my knowledge the walnut would be the exfoliant, manuka honey an antiseptic&soother;,lime for refreshing purposes and orange blossom would also complement each ingredient,Aloe Vera again has healing properties aswell as a soothing agent. The consistency of the contents is a naturally gritty feeling texture. Which isn't horrible and since it's gritty is primarily that of walnut shells, this doesn't scratch the scratch and I believe that the other ingredients would counteract any reaction from the exfoliation process. It makes sense and it doesn't hurt or cause me to react. The fragrance is slight not overpowering which is a good sign of not being heavily perfumed. After the first use there is an instant result of cleansed skin. (As I hadn't used an exfoliant in some months). It appeared to have remove the top layer of old dirty skin. (The truth) I also did my neck & décolletage , the result of this was amazing as some creases were appearing around my lower décolletage area and the creases did disappear, (HAPPY AS TO SEE THIS), which proved to me this creasing/wrinkling effect was just a build up of dirt & tanned skin. As a result a clear glowing skin, without any reaction. So I suggest extending the area for the scrub as I have sensitive skin and to have no side effects from doing so, if proof of how gentle yet effective it is. I did give my 11 year old son a treatment to try prevent any breakouts as I noticed his skin was built up. This did cause a break out on his skin, we did follow up with a toner and moisteriser but not from this range and that could've been the reason for breakout or it just could've been that the skin needed to detoxify. The breakout only lasted 24 hours so not bad.

All in all a more affordable and gentle but affective product, which I will continue to use. Aswell as being NZ made I am trying to support homegrown as much as possible, which is another factor to continue with repurchase. I also am going to look into the rest of the brand I went into their Web store and they've got a good range of product with special packs but can't see any toners in their brand.

Thanks for broadening my horizon BR as I received this in the March beauty boxe.

I recently received this in the Beauty Review beauty box and was a lil unsure of how I would like it due to almond in it. But I absolutely love it! The smell is amazing and the scrub is actually gritty!! I Prefer gritty in scrubs and get frustrated when you buy a product thinking yay its a exfoliator and its got the tiny lil beads that do nothing on ya face. Tho I have used Skinfood products before I find the packaging quite plain so its easily missed on the shelf when buying a new product! The fact that's its a natural product and hasn't got the added junk in it, I definitely will be purchasing again when I run out

Skinfood exfoliating scrub

This is amazing!!!!! I got this in my BR box and was excited to try it as Skinfood is an affordable kiwi brand - I like to try and support Nz brands where I can.

This comes in a matte tube that has a flip up lid. The product squeezes out easily and doesn't explode all over your hands. The slight resistance in the tube makes it easy to control how much product you disperse. In terms of the packaging, the design is straightforward and simple but not boring.

The product itself is creamy and has grains which definitely remove the dry, dead skin from your face to reveal new, fresh skin. I like my exfoliators a little on the coarse side and this is perfect for my preferences. If you have super sensitive skin you may find this a little rough but I love it.

After using this my skin feels baby bum soft. It does dry my skin out a tad (I have dry skin btw), but I combat this by making sure I rehydrate it with mousturiser.

Overall I was super surprised to love this and am definitely going to repurchase it. The price is awesome for the product and I would happily pay double.

I use this Exfoliater daily! and love everything about it! The texture is great, it really feels like it gets in there and scrubs your skin - without being too harsh. I also love that it uses natural ingredients, and I even have my partner using this now too!

I got this in my beauty box and wow!! This exfoliating scrub smells absolutely Devine. I've never really done much exfoliating but after using this one I am completely sold and have found a new obsession. It leaves me feeling so clean and my skin has never felt so good. I am in love and will be buying more when I run out! I thought it looked like quite a small tube but I've been using it most nights all over my body and its lasting really well.

I recieved this in my March Beauty Box, I dont usually buy scrubs like this for my face as it tends to make me get more pimples, but this one surprised me, i used it every second day and it left my skin feeling soft and fresh, and as a bonus it smells delicious! loved it

I absolutely loved this product. THANK YOU MARCH BEAUTY BOX.

If was fresh, cleansing and smells amazing. The beads within the scrub where not too big or rough so it was an invigorating rather than painful experience.

Skin feels rejuvenated, new and energized.

I have never tried any skinfood products before so I was excited to try a new brand and I was intrigued and excited about the cucumber extract and manuka honey.

It has a very creamy texture rather than a jel-like texture with tiny beads in it. It was very easy to rub over my skin and the beads were small enough exfoliate my skin but at the same time it was not harsh at all so I think this would be a great product for people with sensitive skin.

Once I washed off the product my skin felt extremely smooth and soft and so fresh. My skin felt rejuvenated which is exactly what I want after a long day with makeup on.

I definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for a good exfoliator.

Great job Skin Food has done with this product. The Exfoliating Scrub is amazing where do I start, I received a sample of this from the Skin Food company after i contacted them in regards to ingredients and allergies and i didn't want to buy a full size product if I was unable to use it, but after even one use of this product and no reaction I had to go out and buy it.

It has the normal White and Green squeeze packaging from Skin Food which is great, enough information on the bottle as well if there was anything you need to know along with additional information on the box it comes in, that hands down is great as we know we are buying the product and not the packaging so the around $14 to buy it is so very much worth it, and quite often is on special so you can get the bargain even better.

This product smells so good, it just smells natural with the Honey and the amazing combination of fruits, the lime smell sticks out for me and I just love it, they done really well with carefully choosing a combination of ingredients but none of that would matter if it didnt have the amazing exfoliation beads that it has, they a full of a quite fine granule and (it product is a kind of brown colour but thats okay, at least you know there are no added colours) it goes onto your face and in small circle motions, it just gets rid of all that old skin, even makeup I found some makeup that just did not come off with makeup remover, this removed it.

I love it as I didn't come out red faced like some other facial scrubs do to me, my skin felt amazing and the smallest amount of product goes such a long way, it even use it a bit on my shoulders when I ever have an issue with slight acne and this helps clear it all up and on my chest when I feel that need a extra boost and I swear this product just helps.

Great way to give your skin a boost after wearing makeup all day, even great as that weekly treat for your skin, I wouldn't use it everyday, only because your skin does its own desquamation and exfoliating every day puts that out of whack.

Overall Highly love this product, even with my allergies I can happily use it, will be buying it again and will recommend it to others.

I've picked this up on supermarket aisle without thinking too much, thought I'd give it a go. Result is amazing, I actually am repeating the second one. I usually use this at night, before I put on essence masks on. It's like cheaper version of Lush scrub in a way, but still so good. I've got combination skin, so I just do longer with more amount for the areas I want to focus.
