It was one of my co-workers who introduced this product to me. She has had a very problematic skin before she started using this product. I was amazed that slowly her acne were fading away and her skin started to look fresher and healthier. After seeing such incredible result (although I have a fairly good skin,) I bought one for myself and it did not impress me as much.

For a deep exfoliating cleanser, it is gentle ish on the skin. However, it can leave skin feeling dry at times with red itchy spots; best to use a good moisturizer after cleanse. It is advised that users massage the product gently on the skin, as it is a scrub. I don't recommend using as a daily cleanser because it is a scrub and can generate accumulative dryness to skin. May be just use as a weekly deep exfoliant.

Given that everyone’s routine and skin care/type differs… If you have oily skin this product will perhaps suit your skin type better.

Gotta love the St Ives facial scrub, it's one of my top favorites for sure. It leaves my face feeling soft, smooth, and looks rejuvenated after use as well. I enjoy the fruity scent as well.

This was my go to exfoliant for years, when I was a teen I always had break outs and this worked to clear it up everytime! Even though it's intended just for your face it worked well on my arms and chest as well! Would recommend to anyone needing a light fresh smelling exfoliant that works!

I bought this 2 years ago with my best friend, where there was an offer: 3 St.Ives scrubbers for $7. This scrub smells amazing and I feel like it gives me a good and thorough cleanse. My skin is incredible smooth after using it at night.

I used St. Ives Fresh Skin Scrub a long time ago. I recently received a sample and gave it another try. The scent is nicer than I remember (maybe they changed the formula, it's been so long), it has a nice fresh and invigorating scent. The grains are pretty coarse but didn't seem abrasive. My skin did not look irritated after the scrub but people with sensitive skin may find it too harsh. My face looked brighter and felt softer afterwards. It's an affordable, drug store scrub. I will continue to use this scrub.

Okay, this does exfoliate really well, but the apricot pieces are not uniform, so I don't think this should be used on the face. Non-uniform physical exfoliation can leave skin damaged and lead to eventual scarring. It's a great price, and can be found virtually everywhere. I do think it can be used really well on the bottom of my feet since the skin there is more hardy and almost always needs exfoliation in harsh Canadian winters.

For the price and effectiveness, this scrub is the best. It exfoliates well without being too harsh and skin. I have combination skin that is dry but also prone to breakouts and this scrub helps keep my skin clear without drying it out.

This product is amazing!

Fantastic price, scent, and is super effective at exfoliating my face.

I use it once/twice a week only and it is wonderful.

I had a big container of this and I used to use it when I'm showering and I noticed it didn't do much for me since I didn't have that mush dead skin to scrub off then but now I feel like I should repurchase the product and give it another go because I've been having dry dead skin on my forehead.

Sadly this is too rough for my sensitive skin. Even though the base is very rich feeling, like a cold cream, the exfoliating bits are too harsh and leave my face irritated.
