Inexpensive exfoliator

This is one of my must have or staple skincare items. Its very cost effective and the little abrasive particles that exfoliates the skin is very evenly distributed throughout the product. Its gentle on the skin, I have not had any redness, burning, itching or flaking of my skin after using. My skin always looks very bright and feels very soft after using. The scent is also very nice without being overpowering. I definitely would buy this again because as stated before it is a staple item.

Be careful!

Although this product retails for a very reasonable price, it is abrasive & causes long term damages to the skin. While using, it does feel harsh and dries out the skin. (I have dry skin). I would not recommend this product and would suggest using a chemical based exfoliant but regardless, please do your research.

Not good for your skin

Be very careful with physical exfoliants. This scrub actually hurts no matter how gentle I apply it. I looked into it afterwards and discovered that it actually damages your skin it’s that rough. I stopped using it.

Holy Grail Face Scrub

I haven’t tried any other face scrub besides this. Been a loyal customer of this stuff for over 10 years or more. If it works, why change it? Does the job to exfoliate dead skin cells leaving my face feeling clean, fresh and renewed. This stuff is seriously amazing. I normally use it 3-5 days a week or every other day.

Bad for your skin

St. Ives scrub tears your skin. The exfoliants are different sizes making you skin uneven. Would not recommend regardless how cheap it is. Could cause serious damage.

Average

Too rough to use on face so I use as a body scrub.
Works great if used as body scrub, got most of my ingrown hair out and my legs are very smooth.
May use again but would shop around first.

Affordable effective face scrub

I’ve been using St Ives scrub for years and it really calmed down my acne. A lot of my family members and friends also use this scrub. I agree that it clears blemishes on the face over time. It really helps to get rid of dead skin on the face and reduce breakouts plus it gives me glowing skin! It’s written on the tube to Use it twice daily for best results but I use it 2 to 3 times a week and it’s enough for me. It's very grainy, the scrub has walnut shell powder and it gets a bit messy in the sink when I’m washing the product off. I love the smell and it leaves my skin feeling really soft like baby skin. I love that it’s paraben-free, sulfate-free and contains 100 percent natural exfoliants. It’s Made with Apricots which contain high levels of cartenoids (Vitamin A) and antioxidants to nourish the skin.I tried many of their scrubs including St. Ives, Green Tea facial scrub and St. Ives Even and Bright Pink Lemon and Mandarin Orange Face Scrub.

Great scent, great product

I love this product. It really helps slough off dry skin and leave soft skin underneath. It is good for every day use, which is nice, since I generally find that most exfoliating products will turn my skin red with every day use, this does not.

Meh

It provides instant results, you do notice that your skin is brighter. But in terms of quality, you will notice that over time it will harm your skin because of how rough the exfoliants really are.
I would use this at most ONCE every two weeks. definitely not twice or three times a week.

Great facial scrub!

This scrub goes on so gently, never irritates my skin and smells great. I find my skin feels so much smoother after its use- I use the scrub about once a week.
