Everybody I know swears by St. Ives as their go to! (If I was funny.. or clever.. I'd be inserting a hilarious one liner about being the saint of all skin types.. but I clearly am not lol) I have been using St. Ives since high school and no matter what highly reviewed or recommended scrubs I test out, I find myself always going back to my tried and true. I've tried all of apricot scrubs St. Ives comes up with but I find for my oily combo skin, the blackhead and blemish control line is superior. Each one of my gfs have their own faves for their own needs, which is something I love about St. Ives, they actually cater to everyone and not just say they do with 3 products. My fave definitely lives up to the name because control is exactly what it does to my zits and oil. I notice a huge difference from days I accidentalllazzy (omg I AM funny and kinda clever lol I'll take it) skip it in the morning, I'm blotting excess oil all day, my makeup doesn't sit as well and my face ugh just feels dirty. The texture of the scrub is perrrrfect, I have yet been able to feel any other scrub come close to duplicating it. Just enough to strip your beautiful face of impurities until your skin glows, is as soft as baby's booty and pores pshh I love St. Ives for just that, I go back to seeing myself in the mirror again and not immediately checking off my combat list of imperfections, that literally take so much time I forget to actually see myself. The hilariously, clever badass who's so badass she stopped taking her makeup bag to the bathroom! Damn. Thank you St. Ives, you've always given my confidence that little boost when I needed it the most. And by little I mean big.. if ya couldn't tell already lol    -
