    Caution

    I got this a few years back because an old roommate recommended it. It wasn’t until recently that I found out that it can cause damage to your skin because it’s too tough.

    I can't use this anymore

    When I was younger (20s), I used this product as an exfoliator. Now in my 40s, this product created blemishes!! My face broke out with red splotches - awful! I can never use it again, which is too bad because the price is awesome & I see it on sale frequently.

    Not good for your skin

    I bought this product for two reasons: it was cheap and the description on the bottle was appealing. It really did nothing for my skin and made it almost worse than before. Would not recommend as a daily cleanser and would also not recommend for people with dry skin. If you’re going to buy this product, use it no more than 1-2 times a week.

    Not for sensitive skin

    Used this product a few years ago, found that it cleared up my acne but left my skin dry and tight. this lead to more moisturizer which led to more acne over time. I found the exfoliation too abrasive as well.

    Not for my skin type

    I've been using this product for well over two years now, and the only reason I haven't replaced it is due to the price and occasional effectiveness.

    Firstly, the exfoliation is a little too rough for my skin, which is very sensitive. It does the job, but I feel raw and irritated after a shower or face wash despite being gentle throughout the routine.

    Secondly, the smell is a bit off for me. I personally dislike it, as it reminds me of chemicals.

    Even though it causes the redness and irritation, it still does a good job at getting dead skin and portruding comedone heads off of my face.

    Basically, I wouldn't recommend it, especially for someone with sensitive skin. It definitely isn't a must-have for me.

    I will start with some positives. This product has a great smell, I have used it to exfoliate my legs before shaving and it is a reasonable price. However, I cannot use this product on my face. I don't have any sensitive skin issues or anything but every time I have tried to use this product my skin broke out terribly. Almost like a rash or little blemishes. Definitely not a product I would recommend. especially if you do have any sensitive skin issues.

    Previously, St Ives blemish control apricot scrub was my part of my daily routine. While I was using this product I found it to be very effective & helped to control my blemish outbreaks. The only reason I changed from this product was due to aging skin. I would recommend this product to a younger generation.

    I bought this product a few years ago in hopes it would clear my acne. It didn't do anything for my skin, the most it did was exfoliate it with the scrub part. I wouldn't recommend.

    It's average. I use it every once in a while and it's a good cleanser. I mostly appreciate the fresh scent of apricot. But I would not say this product is of outstanding quality.
