ST. Ives Blemish Control Apricot Scrub, 150 ml, Pack of 3

This is my favourite skincare product for the last...I don't know how many...years. It's my Holy Grail skin care item and no other exfoliator compares for me. I've tried several other brands and also a few other St Ives' exfoliating products, but I always come back to this one. The product is thick and creamy and it feels like it's working AS you're using it. Plus it smells great. It isn't too harsh on the skin (despite that one ridiculous news report of that silly girl who temporarily gave herself sores because she absolutely scrubbed her face to death with a full tube of this and a flannel.) and the granules aren't sharp or rough. I wet my face and then apply firm pressure and scrub my face in little circles, focusing on my nose for those pesky blackheads. I use this product in either the bath or shower, since the hot water opens my pores and also because I don't trust myself not to get this in my fringe/hair. Once I start to rinse after scrubbing, I can already tell it's done it's magic, because my skin feels all tingly and smooth. When I'm all dried off after, I can see how the blackheads on my nose are vastly improved and the size of my pores is reduced with all the gunk out. My whole face feels lovely and soft and looks very glowy and clean. Applying your usual moisturiser afterwards feel great, because it feels like you have a blank canvas to start with and your skin just drinks it in. This and a decent moisturiser (I use Cetraben as I have very dry skin) seem to be the secret to my best skin. Obviously it's different for different skin types, but if you have dry to very dry skin with no major issues - this might be your Holy Grail Product too.

I have used this scrub for a long time and I can’t recommend it enough. It leaves my skin smooth and clear. I use it two to three times a week. It has a nice course texture to it that really exfoliates well leaving my skin so soft and smooth. It keeps greasy skin at bay cutting down on any acne. I have occasionally changed to other brands to try something new but always return to the original apricot scrub.

This is a course face scrub which is what I wanted, gets rid of any dead or flakey skin. Plus at under £3 it's a bargain. Other brands i've tried have sometimes been too smooth and not effective. Apparently the St Ives range also contains scrubs that are less course, so something for everyone.

A great way to start the day using this exfoliating face wash. Not much smell to it and looks a bit weird but trust me, if really cleanses your skin and removes old skin cells leaving your skin feeling wonderfully smooth and refreshed! 🤗

Haven't used this in years. Still great stuff. Perfect exfoliation great price. Hasn't changed as far as I can tell

Absolutely love this product your face feels so clean and fresh after using it.

My daughter and husband both suffer from oily skin but also sensitive skin so finding face wash/scrub that helps prevent oily ache but doesn't dry their skin out use to be a real trial and error 😕 Then I remembered as a teenager I swore by this stuff so I decided to try it again all these years later and I'm baffled why I stopped!! I don't have oily skin but i love this range and better still both my husband and teenager can use it and also swear by it so it's a family all rounder. Smells nice but not overpowering, the scrub does the job but isn't to rough, it leaves the skin looking & feeling really fresh, perfect for oily skin and suitable for sensitive skin as well it seems! So good we all now use the moisturizer as well 🙌

When I read some of the feedback, I was like 'yea right after first you notice a difference I don't think so' but with it having such positive reviews and was also recommended by my GP I wanted to give it a go and would of been happy after a week and notice a difference to my skin! But I totally noticed a difference after the first wash/scrub!!! I have slightly bumpy skin on my forehead from tiny blackheads and that reduced with the one wash. My adult acne is mainly around my jaw line and with waking up this morning my skin looks better already. Feels fresh and smooth. I did also buy the neutrogena oil free acne wash pink grapefruit and I think that's also helped. If totally honest I hate fruit smelling lotions and potions, don't like smelling of food lol but yes it has a strong fruit smell while washing (both scrud and wash) but after all rinsed I couldn't smell it as strongly. I then did my normal toner and moisturiser and even got my husband to smell my skin and he couldn't smell the fruit so I was even happier! Worth the buy even at 3 for £6 with prime will definitely be buying again and recommending to friends and family! I will have youthful skin again hehe

I was using Alba Botanica's Good & Clean Toxin Release Scrub for years and recently, I needed to purchase more, but I couldn't find it available, anywhere! So, I contacted Alba Botanica and they said it was discontinued. I was very disappointed that they didn't give any kind of warning that this was going to occur and they didn't have an alternate product I could use as a replacement. I started researching other brands and narrowed it down to St Ives Apricot Face Scrub. I received it quickly and tried it that night. It is fantastic! I am so happy that St Ives Face Scrub does exactly what it claims to do. It has very good exfoliation, a wonderful scent and it truly cleans every bit of makeup from my face. Although it isn't moisturizing, it doesn't dry out my face. It leaves my face feeling extremely clean and fresh. I love it!

He comprado de esta marca varias veces, es de una buena calidad y además huele super bien! Exfolia muy bien, hay muchos productos para exfoliar que no hace nada pero esto si. Ayuda en quitar el piel seco, y luego es fácil para quitar. Deja el piel muy suave, y el olor es muy agradable!

fast and good.

Das Aprikosenkern-Peeling ist seit langem ein fester Bestandteil meiner Hautpflegeroutine und verdient definitiv eine 5-Sterne-Bewertung. Schon beim Auftragen fühlt es sich auf der Haut unglaublich angenehm an und hinterlässt ein erfrischtes Gefühl. Aber das Beste kommt nach der Anwendung - meine Haut fühlt sich nicht nur sofort glatter an, sondern ich habe auch das Gefühl, dass sie sich mit jeder Nutzung direkt verbessert. Die feinen Aprikosenkernpartikel bieten eine sanfte, aber dennoch effektive Peelingwirkung, die abgestorbene Hautzellen entfernt und die Hautstruktur verbessert. Ich habe festgestellt, dass meine Haut nach regelmäßiger Anwendung viel strahlender und ebenmäßiger aussieht. Dieses Peeling ist ein absolutes Must-Have für alle, die eine strahlende und gesunde Haut anstreben. Mit seiner Wirksamkeit und dem angenehmen Hautgefühl verdient es definitiv eine volle Punktzahl von 5 Sternen.

love it. makes my skin feel and looks clean. i do recommend it.
