Great scrub

I love this scrub it leaves my skin feeling so smooth and refreshed. I have used other scrubs but none that leave my skin feeling so good. For people with delicate skin I would recommend using it every few days as it is quite a rough scrub but that is what I love best about it. It take away any old skin and dirt out of my pours leaving me with a refreshed face.

St Ives Apricot Scrub

This is a necessity in my daily personal hygiene care haha - If I don't use this for a few days, my skin starts to show signs of blackheads and spots. I have been using this for about 5-6 years now and will be for many more whilst recommending my friends to use this product.

Mixed review

My partner uses this every day to wash his face however, I find it a little too rough and prefer something that cleanses and cleans out the poors than something that doesn't feel like its washing your skin. It is especially important to avoid using this too often on your cheeks as the harshness of it can harm pores and the elasticity of your skin which can result in being more prone to wrinkles

Prefer to use as a body scrub

Love the texture of the scrub for a body scrub and has a subtle smell, more almond scent with a hint of apricot. I find it too rough to use on my face, and needs a lot of water to wash off, however using it as a body scrub, it works wonders on my back and chest. Leave skin feeling clean and fresh. Product has a large opening, with a squishy bottle so easy to dispense - works well on a body puff or massaging into skin. I use it once week and enjoy great results on my back and chest, often these areas for me are sensitive to product, but no issues, have been using product regularly.

Good Product

I used this product for a long time and at the time was very happy with it. I think it is a great product and really does exfoliate your face. Leaving with absolutely no dirt or dry skin. Can be very harsh on skin though and after using everyday i think it really should be used a couple times a week so that you can give your face a break from the harsh texture. It is fragrant and comes across as very natural. I think it would work best if used with a gentle face cleanser so that it can work well with your skin.

Apricot Scrub.

I used this daily for a number of weeks when my skin was at it's worst, it was a little harsh on the skin but didn't dry mine out like most products, it was pleasant smelling and left my skin feeling really clean. It also worked well during pregnancy when my skin was quite sensitive.

Tips: Only use every second or third day.

husband uses it too :-)

Love it, I am forever trying out new scrubs but always end up going back to this one, my face gets a harsh texture if I use an ordinary face wash, its always so smooth after I use this product, never drys my skin out, it gives me the perfect base to apply makeup to :-)

Tips: Have caught my husband using this so hide it good if you want it to last

Great product!

I use this everyday! It leave skin feeling clean and smoothe! Its so refreshing.. I love the texture as it actually feels like its cleanng your skin. Ive been using this since I was about 15 (im 20 now) I never really have problems with acne etc but this stuff helps when I have blemishes, it drys out pimples so you dont need to pop them etc which helps reduce scarring!

Apricot Scrub

Although slightly more expensive than most face scrubs but it really works. It makes your face feel so smooth and does help get rid of black heads. I would really recommend this even if your skins pretty good. It doesn't smell very strong and you don't have to use very much each time and you can use it as often as you want.

Tips: Don't use heaps as a little goes a long way

My favourite face scrub + environmental benefits

I'm pretty notorious for treating my skin badly. I almost never wash my face and sometimes sleep with my makeup on, only really using makeup wipes. This scrub is quite literally the only product I use because I love it so much and it makes a huge difference.

Every few days I notice my skins gets a little dry, especially around my nose, and my pores start showing (again, especially on my nose). And this is usually from daily wearing makeup and constantly being in chlorinated water. So being able to scrub my skin clear of all the dead bumps and patches is wonderful, it is pretty tough but doesn't leave your skin raw, instead my skin is left soft and fresh like baby skin.

What I love the most about this product is that recently it has come to my attention that the microbeads in some exfoliants are very dangerous and polluting. Since microbeads are tiny and buoyant they may manage to make it through water treatment and end up back in our oceans where they are mistaken for food by sea life. St. Ives face scrubs (both this and the blemish control one) have 100% natural exfoliants, the don't use microbeads and instead use crushed walnut shell. I'm not an environmentalist, but I think its important to not impact the Earth badly just because I want to wash my face.

So all in all, I love this scrub, its harsh, but not too harsh and more natural than other brands. Its also affordable and can be found at your local supermarket. I'd encourage anyone to make the change from microbeads to St Ives apricot scrub.

Tips: Moisturise after use, I don't recommend exfoliating daily.
