Fresh and fruity

I have always used this product on/off in my life and it is a true classic. Used once or twice a week this stuff does a great job with exfoliating without causing breakouts or skin irritation. It also smells divine! I would recommend to pretty much anyone as most people I know who have used this product also, have had no issues.

Tips: Follow directions, finish up with a moisturiser.

Amazing product!

I love this scrub it works so well and makes my skin so soft. I don't know why but this product seems to help clear my skin more than the blemish control one which is weird but i love it. Smells lovely too which is a bonus. It is very effective in making my skin feel very fresh and scrubs all of my rough skin off without over drying my face. Would recommend :)

Fresh Smelling & Effective

I really enjoyed the apricot scent of this product and it does what it says it should. In fact, I found this product so effective that it dried out my face too much, even if I only used a small amount every now and then. So you know what? I used it as a body exfoliant instead and it works perfect!

Tips: Also give this a go on any rough parts of your body such as your heals. It's multi-purpose!

Baby soft face

I used to purchase this fairly often years ago couldn't remember why I stopped buying it, decided to give it another go after spotting a good special on it. I soon remembered why I stopped buying this, it's much too rough to use as an every day cleanser. I was thinking this would replace my every day cleanser but I also need something gentler to alternate between using the apricot scrub every 2-3 days. If I use this scrub 2-3 days in a row it leaves my face feeling a little raw as it is quite good at taking the skin off.

This scrub is a thick cream with little bits of shell through it that looks like sand, very coarse very effective. I rub this stuff over my face for around 30 seconds before washing off and it leaves my face feeling sooo soft & smooth to touch. The way this scrub makes my skin feel to the touch reminds me a lot of the L'oreal magic blur cream, velvety. This scrub has a light natural apricot scent, delivers a thorough clean, and brightens the complexion. A little of this product goes a long way, the 150ml tube lasts for ages which makes it value for money.

I've successfully rekindled a happy relationship with this product and will most likely be replacing.

Tips: Don't over-use this product it's not suitable for every day use. If you cleanse/exfoliate your face every day you will need a gentler product to use alternatively.

My go to scrub

Love this scrub, it's my go to. My face feels amazing after I've used it. Found it at 20 and 15 years later. Still love it! It is cheap enough that it doesn't warrant a huge outlay and is affordable and your skin feels amazing after use. I've noticed that I cant smell the apricot in it, however that may be because I use it in the shower. It leaves my face feeling so soft and clean afterwards and "soft as a babys bot" I always use it prior to a big night out so that my skin is fresh and clean.

Tips: I think Stephx covered it. Make sure you're face is really wet when you use this otherwise it feels like sandpaper. I use it as the last thing I do in the shower so my skin has had time to soften up

Sandpaper in a bottle

This is an amazing exfoliant dont get me wrong, but it should be used for body only!! The beads in this are FAR too rough for your face. Washing your face with a cleanser and flannel if you dont have a gentle exfoliant is far better for your face.

Cheap and fresh

This facial scrub is fresh, smells good, feels good and provides good results. I have used this scrub many times to feel more refreshed with myself and it always has left my skin feeling smooth never feeling greasy and gross, long term results you should use it 2 - 3 times a week to see improvements. Make sure you get it all off your face and be gentle when scrubbing it off!

Skin so smooth!

I felt like this product was awesome while I was in the shower. Then when I got out it kind of made my face really dry. Otherwise I had the radiant glow and my face was nicely exfoliated. I find some of the beads a little too scratchy, especially if you have sensitive skin. Otherwise a really good product!

Tips: Make sure your face really is wet before applying, as if it isn't it feels like sandpaper!

Freash AS!!

loved using this facial scrub, it is super effective at removing dead skin, however id say to those with delicate and sensitive skin to use a product thats a lot creamier, this is a very rough cream and could harm your face more than help.

Tips: only use 3 days a week so your not scrubbing away your skin and leaving your face raw

St Ives Invigorating Apricot Scrub

my favorite scrub! smells yummy and my skin feels so soft and clean when I have used it and I found it didn't dry out my skin at all. As the product is quite rough I found I had to be really gentle when using and only used twice a week. But I would definitely recommend and use regularly!! :)

Tips: don't rub too hard when using :)
