Fruity treat

I have been using this since I was a teenager and have always loved it. It really acts well on skin and exfoliate with a shine and smoothness. It leave good smell. It's a shame that I have become so busy that doesn't take good care of my skin now as compared to the days back then.

Tips: Use a cleaner for better effect after using the scrub

It's Okay

I'm surprised by the hype around this product as I personally don't find it to be amazing, however it is a really nice product at an affordable price.

The product contains crushed up apricot shell to buff away dead skin on the face, which it does, but I find it too harsh to use particularly often as the sharper bits in the product can irritate my skin. It also hurts like hell to get into your eyes.

It does smell nice, and it's great for removing heavy foundation before using a lighter face wash. I tend to team this up with the Clearasil Daily Clear Superfruit scrub, using the St Ives one first to remove heavy duty makeup, and then the Clearasil as a lighter and gentler exfoliator so as to not upset my easily annoyed skin.

I don't /not/ like it, but it isn't my favourite. I probably won't be repurchasing as I only bought it because their Green Tea face scrub (my favourite) wasn't available at the time.

Tips: A little goes a long way, and don't use it too often because it really is heavy duty.

Good face scrub

This is one of the few face scrub's I've had. It smells really good. I like how it feels when I am applying it on to my face. You don't need to use a lot of product. After rinsing and drying my face it would feel tight and look really clean. My face has a lot of texture which is why I need a good face scrub. I didn't break out. It made my skin look soft and flawless and it felt soft also. My skin would smell nice as well. It's good to use about 3 times a week maybe depending on what skin you have. It made my skin look and feel smooth but I feel like it wasn't making much of a difference to the texture on my forehead which was what I was hoping for and bought it for. I only bought one so I thought maybe you will need to keep using it to see a more accurate result.

Good and Average

When i first starting using this facial scrub it worked really well as i had really oily skin but over the years my skin has started to become dryer, and using this product on a usual basic makes my skin even dryer. So if you have oily skin i would suggest this product 100% but if its dry i would still suggest it but i would use it sparingly.

Tips: Do not use this everyday. Use sparingly.

Face Exfoliant

I have used this scrub for well over five years. basically because it is easily found in a supermarket, relatively inexpensive, and does what it says it does. I use it nearly every night in the shower as i find it is not to abrasive for my skin. It does reduce blackheads and gets rid of excess oil. One downside is the beads in the product that are not so great for the environment.

Tips: A little goes a long way.

Smells so good!!

I've been using the St Ives Green tea scrub for a while and thought I would give this a try as the exfoliation is 'next level up' It's not something I would use everyday as its a really thorough exfoliation- perfect for after heavy makeup use or when needing a thorough cleanse. It has a lovely scent, and the bonus the exfoliant is walnut shell ground not plastic

Tips: A little goes a long way and watch out for your eyes

St Ives Fresh Skin Apricot Scrub New Look!

Is a very nice product a game changer !! , deeply exfoliates to give you a a glowing radiant skin , however do not use this product everyday!! as if you use everyday too much exfoliation can irritate your skin .

My self as I have a T zone forehead,nose and chin a bit more oily then other areas I concentrate on these areas , using St Eves 2-3 to times a week should be ok .

It has a nice fresh apricot scent also paraben free and Hypoallergenic

You can find this product at most pharmacies and supermarkets Retail price : $ 9.00 or even less, good quantity for money ,comes in a bottle of 150 ml

Tips: Always moisten your face with water first, put a little bit of facial scrub onto your fingers and massage over the areas you would like to target best .

Feels so good!

I've used this scrub for a long time. It does such a great job and it feels like you are really getting rid of that dead skin. Probably if you have particularly delicate skin then it may be too rough. I really like the way it instantly feels better. I think it's a great starter for a face mask as the skin has the dead skin removed so you get the full benefit of the mask.

Beautiful scent

I like this facial scrub it’s gentle on the skin and leaves it feeling fresh and clean. Unlike other facial scrubs for similar price it doesn’t irritate my skin. Love the beautiful smell and packaging. Great product for a reasonable price.
