Ive been using St.Ives Apricot Scrub for a while now.I use it on both face and body.It's not only a gentle exfoliator but effective too.It cleans your pores and smoothes your skin.It also has an extract from flowers called sambucus nigra and primula veris.They have properties known to lighten and brighten skin!Thats the main reason why I use it and have been using for years.It keeps your skin bright and scrubs off all dead skin cells and marks.
Make sure you have purchased the 'gentle' kind cuz the ordinary can be pretty rough!And only use it 2-3 times a week.

Yes, it is okay to use daily. I've been using st ives for quite awhile now and I've been very happy with it. I have very sensitive skin, but st. ives is one of the products my face can actually tolerate. They make a few different types. The regular apricot is an exfoliator, so it is a little rougher. However, it is gentle enough that you can use it once per day. They also make a sensitive skin formula that is not rough like the original. You can use it everytime you wash.

No. it is possibly the worst thing you can do to your skin. The walnut shells in th scrub actually cause tears in your skin and can cause irritation or breakouts. I tried it too after hearing reviews and I broke out like crazy and was miserable for a long time. I suggest something with round/synthetic exfoliators. It's much more gentle.

Not at all it is way to harsh for anybody's skin as it contains crushed shells.
Dermologica daliy microfoliant is the best thing to use but is also quite pricey. alturnativley try looking for a scrub that contains beads as they are not harsh on the skin at all

yes...I think it's awesome! It makes your skin sooooo soft and smooth! But I never use it every day. Maybe 3 times a week or so because it can be irritating to the skin if used too often!

No, it has crushed walnut shells in it. This will scratch your skin and damage it, possibly breaking capillaries in your skin. There are much better exfoliators out there. Try something else.

i use that daily and its fine. i've tried others that arent as coarse but they just didnt make my face feel as scrubbed. i hate missing a day, all day if i havent used it my face seems rough to me.

It's ok; however, I like Got2b deep scrub a lot better!
