    I love this stuff. I have been using it for years. It doesnt dry out your face like others out there. It is a keeper.

    I have been using St Ives for years. I have tried different facial scrubs but nothing compares. I use it and it removes the dead skin making my face feel smooth and clean.

    I love this stuff, It really makes your face smooth, I use it once a week when I give myself a mini facial, but they say you can use it everyday. I wouldn't recommend that especially if you have sensitive skin. Overall it will give you the look that you have healthy skin and a nice glow,

    I also use it to shave with so I don't have to get any nasty razor bumps, it is great to use under your arms, legs and private area.

    I have used this scrub since I was in high school (a long time!). My husband loves it as well! It is not harsh and chemically-smelling like other scrubs. It is very natural-feeling and leaves my face feeling polished yet soft and smooth. I love the fragrance--somwhat earthy and somewhat fruity but not harsh.

    Love it, you can feel the little exfoliating beads doing their work. First time I used it was a little abrasive but now I can't live without it.

    This is my favourite facial scrub - you can't beat the price and it leaves my skin very soft and smooth. (I buy the renewal version of the product.)
    I've tried many *much* more expensive scrubs and none have worked nearly as well. I've been using it for well over 10 years now. ;)

    After reading such wonderful reviews on this product, I decided to give it a try. The verdict? I was VERY disappointed.

    The good things about this scrub... Well, it smells great. I love the scent. It's also very cheap, especially considering the size of it.

    What I don't like about it? Gosh...where do I start? In terms of quality, this is probably the WORST facial scrub I've ever used. I think someone described it as taking sandpaper to your face and that description was dead on. I don't have sensitive skin and I can pretty much use anything under the sun and not react to it. But the first time I tried this scrub, I found the granules very large and extremely sharp. I rubbed my face as gently as I possibly can and afterwards, my cheeks still felt like they were cut. I tried using this several nights later, same result. I've tried this on my face 3-4X and I finally gave up. There are much much better scrubs out there for a very affordable price.

    I strongly recommend AGAINST using this scrub everyday on the face; it's too abrasive. In fact, I probably wouldn't use it more than once a week.

    So instead of throwing it away and wasting my money, I tried other CA members' advice and used it as a body scrub. I didn't find a huge improvement on the elbows and heels. However, I use it several times a week as a hand scrub. I wet my hands with warm water, use a generous amount of the scrub and rub GENTLY for about 10-15 seconds and rinse with warm water. I finish off with a great hand moisterizer and my hands always feel soft and smells great.

    (I gave very low rating for Quality and Effectiveness because this is marketed as a Facial Scrub and I think it's a terrible product for the face. If this product was meant for the body/hands, I'd definitely give it a higher rating.)
