Green tea packs a punch in this derma-tested, blackhead-tackling scrub. It’s got those good guys – antioxidants and it’s moderately exfoliating too, helping to target blackheads, unclog pores and calms redness, for a more even skin tone. It also contains olive leaf extract which the Egyptians saw as a symbol of heavenly power. And who’d argue with that?

Green Tea scrub

I've used the St Ives apricot scrub alot in the past so I was really keen to try this one when I saw it in the beauty vault. The packaging is a white squeezy tube with green writing, a picture of green tea leaves and the St Ives brand name at the top. The scrub is a green paste that smells really refreshing. The texture is quite smooth with just a little bit of grit so it's quite gentle on my face. I've been using it 2-3 times a week and I'm really liking it, it leaves my skin soft and refreshed everytime. I didn't notice it clearing my blackheads, although I don't really get alot of them anyway and it didn't calm any redness but I would definitely keep buying this one because of the smell and how it leaves my face feeling, it does really clean it well.

Good general scrub

St Ives is probably most famous for it's apricot face scrub, which is such a good product! This green tea version is a step down in terms of 'scrubbiness", it's much more gentle and less gritty. It is supposed to be blackhead clearing and I'm not sure if I've seen that yet (although my blackheads are very small anyway). This is definitely one that I'll keep buying as it leaves my skin feeling really soft and clear.

hit the jackpot

the feel of the scrub while using is very gentile especially for my sensitive skin and after using it my face feels absolutely refreshed and i notice that it clears my redness of my pimple scar. the scrub claims to clear blackheads however i only noticed the effects after 3 weeks of using the scrub.

Tips: I would recommend to not vigorously rub the scrub on your face because it does cause a lot of irritation but rather to genitally and softly rub on your face and after washing off, dab the towel around your face rather than rubbing to avoid irritation

I like this better than the apricot scrub!

I thought the apricot scrub was my favourite, but then I found this! The scrub is of much finer texture and of a greeny herby sweet smell. You only need a pea sized amount, then gently rub it around on your wet face. After using this my face feels clean and smoother, but using more than a pea sized blob results in tight feeling skin. The scrub texture on this is like fine sand, where the apricot scrub is much more coarse.

Green tea and black heads

I think it targeted my blackheads and it is a very good scrub leaves your skin clean and fresh. Certainly will use time and again the whole range as they all scrub very well.

Very gentle

This is such a nice face scrub. It has a wonderful light green tea scent which I love, and is a very gentle scrub. I didn’t notice a huge difference in my blackheads, but I’d say it did help my skin texture overall.

Tips: Even though it’s gentle, scrubs shouldn’t be used every day!

Best of the st ives

This blackhead formula is the best face wash st ives has by my opinion. It's super super gentle but you can feel it scrubbing away. I just finished my last bottle and once again the price is super affordable too. So stock up! It smells nice and lasts around a month and a half with regular use.

Tips: Use less water for more exfoliation. More water for for a creamy texture.

Perfect once a week scrub

The packaging on mine is a bit different but I'm sure it's the same. I like the texture of this scrub it's abrasive enough to remove dead skin but also fine enough that it doesn't feel like a gel with beads like some other products that dont evenly remove dry skin. It smells nice and my skin feels super smooth afterwards. You only need a small amount it goes far. Definitely a favourite this one. As far as removing blackheads it does a fair job but to be honest no product I have tried actually delivers 100% on this.
