St Ives Invigorating Apricot Scrub Review

Love this product! Smells great Gets all of your foundation out of your pores at the end of the day Perfect for daily scrubbers (I know your not supposed to scrub daily but you have to find what works for your skin and this absolutely does!)

I have very sensitive skin and though I would give this a try for an every once in awhile exfoliate. Every time I tried it I would get redness and ended up with a few breakouts. I think that it would be alright for some skin types, but feel like the scrub is too sharp and gritty for most skin types.

This is my go to face scrub Its easy to buy Its cheap its great scrub for face It dont dry out my skin it makes skin feel so soft and smooth when all cleansed i like and will totally buy again

I tried St Ives Invigorating Apricot Scrub a while back. St Ives is great for getting a really decent amount of product for an affordable price.

To apply, wet your face then massage the product onto your face and wash it off.

This product gives a nice deep clean. However it can be slightly more abrasive so I would only use it up to twice a week.

I use exfoliators or scrubs all over the body as I use fake tan and exfoliating is part of my pre-tanning routine. Because this apricot scrub has lots of product, it lasts me which is fantastic. On the body its abrasion potential also isn't quite as detrimental.

I would use it again because it's great for pre-tanning. As a face scrub though I would pick something else. It is however good value and it's good you have the option of using it on both the face and body.

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.

This has been a very reliable facial scrub for me that has been around for a long time and never failed. I love the fact I can wash my full coverage make up with this in 1 wash and makes my face feel clean fresh and breathing! Definitely a great wake me up in the morning or relax face mask in the evening. A every household must have I'd say!This has been a very reliable facial scrub for me that has been around for a long time and never failed.

Overall the packaging and price of this product is very appealing, which is why I picked it up! The first time I use it, it did the job great, and also felt good on my skin! However after using a few more times it made my skin feel very dry and also irritated! I have pretty sensitive skin, so if you are after a product which is sensitive skin safe, I would probably stay away from this one, or only use it every now and again! Its just a few bit harsh for my liking! The smell and scent is actually rather nice though!

Awesome cheap scrub that really does get rid of dry skin and dead skin cells. The exfoliation particles are quite coarse and large (some people may find this to be a tad to abrasive) but for me I love it as it helps remove the yucky dry patches of skin that my face is prone to getting. It has a lovely fruity apricot scent. I've been using this product for over 10 years and find it does wonders for my skin. It always leaves my skin feeling lovely and clean, fresh and moisturized after every use. I find this product to be awesome for my dry, sensitive and eczema prone skin.

While this scrub is absolutely incredible (!!!!) It works like a dream and does exactly what it says it will. However, research has been done on this exfoliator and its been discovered that the apricot kernels in it are terrible for your skin as they have extremely sharp edges thus causing micro tears on your skin, scarring and severely damaging your skin.

I absolutely love the St Ives Apricot scrubs range, I never feel quite right without using it at least twice a week. I wouldn't recommend using it more than that though especially if you have sensitive skin because it is quite a rough scrub. It is very exfoliating and leaves my skin so soft. I struggle with big pores and blackheads around my nose and I find that this scrub cleans that area up really well - if using on this area use a very light touch! it can be very harsh if used incorrectly.
