I'll get the negative out of the way - I didn't love the texture of this scrub. I prefer a really beefy scrub with lots of grit. The texture of this was kind of creamy with fine micropartocles, I'd say it's more like an exfoliating face wash rather than a scrub. But that aside, I really liked the product. It didn't irritate my skin at all and my skin looked lightly polished and smooth and felt a lot more exfoliated than I expected. The win here was that my husband commented in how good my skin looked completely unpromted! He said my skin looked really soft and asked if I'd had my botox topped up!! I love the fresh citrus scent too.

This is my new favourite scrub! It has such a nice smell to it, so fresh and clean. It leaves my face so soft and gets deep into my pores and clears away dead skin. I am on my second scrub already and even my daughter loves using it too! The price is really good, but I think the Chemist Warehouse has it for cheaper than most places so that's a bonus. I love using it in the morning it really wakes me up with such a fresh scent.
This scrub is a bit rough on the skin, but it does smooth. I also find it quite hard to wash off all of the product quickly. I use this only when my skin is in need of a very deep cleanse. It also irritates some people's sensitive or acne-prone skin.
Tips: Only use scrub once or twice a week.
I’ve always had super dry uneven skin. After using this a few times my skin became so visibly toned and a lot more brighter! I buy this from my local supermarket every few weeks along with the St Ives Apricot Scrub. Definitely recommend for the ladies out there that struggle with finding a good, natural, hydrating exfoliator!!
Tips: I always recommend leaving this exfoliator on for at least a minute before completely washing off. This helps it sink into skin.
I absolutely love the smell of this product however, it’s not my favourite and I don’t reach for it as much as some of my other exfoliators, it scrubs well but I’m not a fan of the texture of it and how it makes my skin feel afterwards. It’s a good option if you are on a budget or you need to grab something quick at the supermarket. I will use it when I run out of other products and I don’t have anything else left otherwise it just sits in my bathroom.
Tips: Patch test first! Especially if you’ve got sensitive skin.
Don't not use if you have sensitive skin. So red and buring from this. I'm glad I'm wiser now and don't keep putting these irritating products on my skin. Harsh abrasive and cheap for a reason.
This scrub smells really good but unfortunately this isn't my favourite scrub. I've used a few of the others by St Ives. I prefer the more concentrated scrubs as I felt my skin didn't feel as well polished and it was more of an average facial cleanser. I will probably finish it and I like to use it on my hands, arm and chest, but probably not very good use of a facial scrub.
Skin felt really nice afterwards, but other things let it down for me. The grains/beads are so small that it's easy to mistakenly get it in your eyes. It seemed to strip all the oil from my skin too. Although the Fragrance isn't overpowering I didn't enjoy it personally.
It is really good with dry skin as I have always trouble finding a gentle scrub for my dry and sensitive facial skin.This is good on pocket as well.I use it twice a week.
Tips: Avoid excessive exfoliation just once or twice a week is enough.
I love this scrub as I love how it can thoroughly clean my face, especially the pores on my nose but I highly recommend not rubbing it too harshing on your skin and avoid this product if you have sensitive skin or just want a product that's gentle on the skin,
