Scrub a dub dub

I decided to use St Ives Apricot Scrub after many years of not using it and I have to say that I am not a big fan. The fragrance of it was so so and the scrub particles were few and far between. I ended using this as a skin exfoliant on my body instead as it ended up being counteractive and clogging up my pores. I don't think that this is the product for me.

Scrub

A relatively attractive tube with a very grainy pale apricot coloured cream, fragrance is a sweet floral. I find the we scrub particals quite hard on my face. And I think I end up just making my face a bit red and aggravate my skin a little. I do just a gental rub around, my skin doesn't feel stripped from moisture but I don't feel my skin is revealed for a nice fresh clean look. This is an affordable exfolliater and is quite possibly better on younger skin. It's a nice size tube and I'd say it would last for a while.

Scrub

Attractive packaging and a reasonable price to pay, available in supermarkets and other outlets. I found the scrub to be pleasant smelling and did a really clean scrub of my face, but after a while it became quite harsh and would cause my skin to break out and have a number of big sore blemishes. Since stopping my skin has returned back to normal. I would like to try it again but perhaps more on my body than face.

Tips: needs a good amount of water to foam up.

Only Exfoliator I'll use

I've used this religiously for about six years. It is the only exfoliator I've used that has gently exfoliated and unclogged pores, visibly drawing dirt out of my pores, especially on my nose where my pores are huge. It scrubs off the dead skin, removes and dirt and makeup that might be on my face and leaves it feeling refreshed and clean. I need to moisturise after, but after exfoliation that is expected. I honestly recommend this to anyone who asks for advice.

Different Types

With the St Ives range you really need to find what's right for your skin type. Also don't necessarily judge on the "type" e.g. Anti-ageing. I found that the anti-ageing one was good for exfoliating but still very gentle on my skin. The Blemish and Blackhead control one had far more harsh particles in it that just totally hurt my sensitive skin. Definitely try out different ones until you find the consistency that's perfect for you, don't give up on the whole range if you run into one that isn't quite right.

Tips: Test the consistency before you buy if possible. Different ones have harsher or more gentle exfoliating particles so you really need to find the one that is best for your skin.

Great exfoliator

I use this product twice a week to exfoliate my face and I love it. It isn't to harsh like some exfoliators I have tried and it doesn't react with my sensitive skin like many face product do.

Fantastic when pregnant!

I used this throughout my first pregnancy when my skin had severe dry patches on my forehead and cheeks. This was great for smoothing out the skin, preventing blockages and giving my skin a more even tone. After my son was born I carried on using this as it was just the best!

Exfoliator

I've used st Ives apricot scrub for a long time, and I love this product. I use it 2-3x a week and it makes my skin baby smooth and removes the dead skin. It lathers well when you apply water and rinses off easily. It's very affordable and easily accessible too -being at most supermarkets and pharmacies. I find it's especially good to use before applying makeup as it leaves your skin as a flawless base for foundations.

Great scrub!

I hadn't used this product for a long time until I asked my husband to get me some face wash at the supermarket and he came home with this. Not quite what I was after but my skin felt amazing after using this scrub! It felt smooth and fresh and it cleared out the pores around my nose etc. It may have been a coincidence but my skin did break out a few days after using it but it could have also been because my skin hasn't had a good exfoliation in a while. It has come right now though so it is hard to say whether it was becuase of the scrub.

I have added this product back to my beauty regime!

Tips: Rather than 3-4 times a week as they suggest, I use it 1-2 as it is quite a rough exfoliant.
