Skinfood Exfoliating Scrub

I received this in my beauty box and as I am going through a experimenting with new exfoliating scrubs I was very excited. The packaging is quite plain and simple and as I am sucked in by bright and colourful this may get overlooked on the shelf. The tube is small but great that it has a flat flip top lid for easy use. When I first squirted the product out my first thought was ergh! The colour and look was not the greatest. It has a very faint smell which I was disappointed with as I like a nice scent in my shower products. But once I started using it I could overlook the colour and lack of smell as it felt great going on. This product has just the right amount of graininess. It's course enough to feel like it's really cleansing but is not to rough to irritate my sensitive skin which was great. A little goes a long way which is also a bonus as the tube is not that big. Overall I quite liked this scrub and even though I'd like to see it a more appealing colour and with more scent I think I would buy it again. The fact that it is NZ made is a big bonus as well

<3 Skinfood

I love Skinfood products, It was one of the first skincare brands I found that didn't break me out. Smells great and works great, It is definitely a gentle scrub. I prefer a finer scrub that feels like its doing a little more, so I prefer others compared to this. But I still use it quite often.

Scrub

Love this cleansing scrub, it works very well with my sensitive skin. Using it day and night, causes clear skin. It works quickly, when I do have acne or pimples. I would recommend to use a little bit of the scrub in case of any reactions.

Skinfood Exfoliating Scrub

This is a lovely gentle exfoliating scrub that makes my skin feel fresh and clean while getting rid of any dryness and impurities on my skin.

I feel that the price is very reasonable as not only does it really do wonders for my skin but it is quite a natural soothing product that is made in NZ. A product being made in NZ is an absolute bonus in my book. I love this whole range!

Definitely worth trying this product out. I have dry, sensitive eczema prone skin and it worked awesome on me. My bf also loves this product and he has very oily pimple prone skin therefore I feel it works well on many skin types.

Exfoliatingly good

Skinfood is a New Zealand brand that I became aware of through my cousin using it. When I received it in my Beauty Box, I was happy to try it.

It came in a box with the skinfood labelling on it. I like these green tear drops that represent this brand. This bottle is a 100 ml. It sits on itself. The lid is easy to open. The exfoliating scrub is white with brown bits through it. The scent of it remind me of kiwifruit and lime. It has a zesty fresh scent. The texture of is creamy with small bits making it feel textured.

I like to use this this scrub when I'm having a shower. I use it on my face, neck and body. When I applied it , it covered my body well. It felt like this scrub is cleaning my skin. I used about two to three pumps of it to cover my whole body. I alternate it depending on how my skin is. My skin is drier on my legs than it is on my body. My face is a combination between dry and ance prone. I was surprised that my skin wasn't dried out from it at all. I also tried it to help remove make up and it did an excellent job.

Overall its made from natural ingredients which is a plus. Another great product from a New Zealand based company. I think price wise it's affordable to buy. I have purchased more of this from countdown on other occasions. One bottle lasted me a little over a month with daily use. Was a nice addition to the beauty box, I did enjoy using it.

Extra good exfoliator

I bought this product from the company for $13.99.

It comes in the distinctive white Skinfood packaging, a 100ml tube inside a white box with the Skinfood colours and logo. The tube has a flip top and is simple to access and use – just flip and squeeze.

The product has the same amazing scent as the mud masque – citrus and very similar to the senses as fresh lemonade – delicious!

It is of a thick lotion consistency and is moderately gritty when applied to the skin. I give it a minute or two to dry and then rub gently, and this works very well for exfoliating without stressing my skin. I then rinse it off with warm water.

The product claims to be made up of walnut shell, cucumber extract, manuka honey, aloe vera, sweet almond and lime to cleanse and refresh tired skin.

The feeling after use is clean and soft skin, that does feel fresh. I especially like that it is not harsh on skin as some exfoliaters can be.

It only requires a small amount of product (1/2 teasp) to gently cleanse the whole face so a tube lasts for weeks, even if using it several times a week.

As an avid user of Skinfood products, I have to say this one is equally fabulous to the others and is a very economical price. I would recommend it to my friends.

My son has been sharing this product with me to help with his acne prone skin. He reports he is finding it very cleansing on his skin and feels his skin is benefitting from it also.

Natural based exfoliater

I recieved this product to review for my YouTube channel and the first thing I noticed when using this product was that it smells amazing! It smells like lime and I love how this company's products are all natural based! The actual scrub bit is almonds which I wouldn't recommend for people with very sensitive skin however it leaves your skin feeling very soft.

It has a thicker consistency then the exfoliaters I usually use but I don't think this makes much of a difference in my opinion. It comes off very easily with warm water and the result of this scrub was fantastic! I would defiantly recommend this!

skinfood

first time i notice this brand on BR website. i tried skinfood cleanser and i pretty like it. i was wondering about skinfood scrub so i bought from the werehouse when they had special.

packaging is same like cleanser. nothing any differences between cleanse and scrub tub. I like most about this packaging is simple white tub and green and black write on it.

I attract on this brand because of natural ingredients. I do like this scrub but I didn't love it. Scrub consistency is nice creamy but whenever I use on face that time I can feel cream go smoothly on skin but walnut sell get separated from cream. But still I can feel scrub is gentle on my skin but I feel something different about this scrub. Cream and walnut sell are working not together according to me. The main thing My skin didn't feel dry at all after use it. That's what this product get 4 star from me.

I use this scrub twice a week for best results use after clean my skin. I will buy in future.

Great affordable face scrub

I have sensitive skin so I generally stick to an AHA/BHA exfoliating cleanser however I couldn’t resist giving this a try when I received it in the NZ Brands 1 BBBE. I think that the price point of being less than $15 is pretty good considering it’s not a scrub that I think should be used everyday regardless of your skin type.

The white/green packaging is a good indication of what this product can deliver – clean healthy looking skin. It has a functional flip top squeeze tube that’s lightweight and doesn’t take up too much space. It’s a thick light brown paste with what I feel are small exfoliating particles that aren’t particularly harsh especially when compared to others offered on the market. I like that the hole of the tube is small enough so that you don’t get carried away with dispensing too much. Other brands that I’ve seen have holes the size of my pinky or slightly bigger and you really don’t need much to exfoliate the face.

I squeeze out an amount that’s probably no bigger than my thumb and just massage it gently into my damp skin. It doesn’t feel abrasive and I feel it does just enough to remove any dead cells from the past few days. It has a lovely light almond/lime scent, I really wish it was stronger like the Skinfood Mud Masque. What I like the most is that it leaves a lovely smooth residue once I’ve washed it off the product as if I had lightly moisturised my face. I would recommend this scrub to others but I’d advise not to use it everyday because even though the exfoliating particles are small, excessive use of the product would be too harsh for the skin.

Tips: Exfoliate using Skinfood Exfoliating Scrub, followed by Skinfood Mud masque (leave for 20 minutes), rinse and then apply Cetaphil moisturiser for baby smooth skin!
