St. Ives Apricot Scrub (page 3 of 5)

I love the smell and feel of this facial scrub, with the little beads in it, it gets right into your pores and thoroughly cleans your face.
It foams up well when added with water and washes off leaving your skin feeling smooth, clean and moisturised. Great to use everyday.
the feel, smell and way that it works

I purchased this product from Priceline a few months ago. And i'm very pleased with the results. It has a very mild yet pleasant scent. It makes you're skin feel really smooth, fresh and soft after you rinse it off. The only bad thing about this product is that it's a little harsh, it feels almost like your massaging sand into you're face, but it doesn't hurt if you're gentle. I would recommend this product and i'll definitely be purchasing it again.
It makes you're skin feel lovely, soft, smooth, fresh and clean.
It's a little harsh, so you need to be gentle.

Best facial scrub product on the market.
Inexpensive and great value for money. Large product sizing and very reliable in pricing.
Great large scrub particles to get in deep and give your face the overall perfect scrub and cleanse required. Using it twice a week gives your face a lovely appearance and helps cleanse deep down to refresh your skin and wash away all the heavy makeup.
Reliable

I have been battling acne for most of my teen and adult life. I have been on accutane and have tried everything. My skin is sometimes amazingly clear and other times acne would creep back. In the last year my skin had been getting worse and I was worried I would have to go back on accutane. I went to India and as such had to take moxy (for malaria prevention) which definitely cleared up my skin as it is usually also prescriped for mild acne. However once I went off it slowly my acne began to come back mildly. I tried this scrub, the apricot 2% ...

I find this to be too harsh. Leaves my skin looking raw and feeling parched. I think it would damage any skin type with prolonged use. You might as well use sand.
Cheap.
Harsh.

I like the st ives apricot scrub because it is a really good scrubby scrub! I hate it when you buy scrubs and in the whole tube they have about 20 scrubbing beads!

I have skin that is combination, so it gets dry on the top but is really oily and clogged underneath so I really need to scrub off the top layer of dead cells to prevent major break outs.

The St ives scrub is the best one I have found to get that really smooth properly scrubbed feeling. Sometimes it does feel like if you scrubbed any harder you would be taking the top layer of your face off though!

I have been using it since I was little and my face is still there though so it must be ok!
Cheap and effective
Could be too harsh if you werent careful

This is my product of choice!

I've used the St. Ives facial scrub for many years and it leaves my skin feeling really clean and soft afterwards.

I like the feeling of really cleansing my skin and taking away dead skin cells.

It's natural, which is a plus in itself, and isn't too pricey, though could be better.

It can be bought almost anywere - Coles, Woolies, Priceline etc. so it's widely available.

I've tried the 'new' ones which are supposed to be blemish fighting but they aren't as 'grainy' and feel a little more oily than the this one.

While I think this product is quiet effective at making the skin feel and look fresher & cleaner, it's not really the sort of product I'd use on a daily basis. Particularly as it is quiet drying and a little harsh on the more sensitive areas (eg. under the eyes, around the nose).
At most I use this product once every two days.
For the last 1.5 years I've had a packet of this scrub lying around in my bathroom at all times and it has given me some great results (with a few drawbacks at times), so it is definitely worth the money.
Leaves the sk...

This is an amazing scrub! It is all natural, not tested on animals and is very effective. It leaves my skin feeling fantastic as well as glowing. However this scrub is rather a rough scrub, so cleanse with care as it can be rough on certain parts especially on sensitive areas. It is inexpensive and definitely a bargain for the benefits you receive! If you have a bit of a problem with breakouts or a minor difficulty with blackheads, then this product is absolutely worth giving a go! I highly recommend this St. Ives Apricot Scrub.
Natural ingredients, cleanses the skin, smells great, reasonably priced.
More of a rough scrub as it can be harsh if you cleanse too hard.

now this product is great, it maes my skin feel lovely, smooth, fresh and look great. its really great for exfoliating before a tan or just to refresh the skin!
i really like this product, but as for clearing up blmeishes and black heads it doesnt really do much for my skin in particular
but it definantly leaves it lookin and feeling great!
ive used this product for years, and its cheap and can be found at any local supermarket or chemist.
makes your skin feel so lovely smooth and FRESH after usage
cheap
available at any supermarket or chemist
doesnt do what it says.

I love St Ives, all there products do just what they say they are going to do and the best part is its not costing hundreds of dollars. It is a product that i personally hope will be round for a very long time.
It does what it says it will do, there is no hype that your skin will change overnight. Great product .

this is the best scrub on the market for anyone who can only afford basic budget products. Only $10 from the supermarket and it lasts ages, what more would you want. My face feels so soft and clean after use.
wow i love this apricot scrub, it has a lovely natural smell and it smells very fruity. it leaves my skin feeling so smooth and soft. It also is good for the body, i use it in the shower. Very well priced, only around $10 at the supermarket for 200g or so.
too grainy for sensitive parts of the face.

i have gone back to this apricot scrub for years now, it does not disappoint ever, smells wonderful, works like a treat, does what it say it will do and doesnt cost a fortune so why spend so much money on other srubs when you can buy st ives apricot scrub for a fraction of the price. once u try it you wont look back
i love st ives apricot scrub, smells like real apricots which is so nice and refreshing, removes all the dirt and dead skin cells off the face and leaves face feeling smooth, smelling great and looking clean fresh and young

This has to be one of my favourite beauty products. For those on a budget you can get results. Great for all skin types. I was put onto this a few years ago by a friend and i now recommend it to everyone. Some other scrubs can be too soft, therefore you need a lot more to actually do the job. This stuff you only need a small amount to work! Try it and you'll be happy.
I LOVE THIS SCRUB! I have been using it for years. It's cheap, easily available and smells great. Better than anything though it works. Skin is left feeling wonderfully soft, vibrant and fresh. I use it on other parts of my body as well - especially my hands.

This is a great product and can also be used even if you are past your teen years because blackheads don't stop! It cleanses the skin so thoroughly and unlike many blemish reducing products, this improves skin condition without drying out your skin.
-Cheap product that works well
-Comes in a squeezy tube with a flip top lip as it is hygienic method for controlling the amount dispensed
-Economical and cost efficient product as you only use it about 2 - 3 times a week
-Easily available in supermarkets, pharmacies and Priceline.
-Needs a light and gentle hand when using as the exfoliating granules in this mechanical exfoliator are quite harsh.

I have just rediscovered this stuff as I used to use it years ago. It works very well to exfoliate and refresh my skin. As it is an affordable product that I can just grab at Big W or wherever I will likely continue to buy it.
This apricot scrub is very affordable as well as widely available. I like that it comes in an easy to use squeeze bottle.
I am not crazy about the smell but it isn't a major complaint of mine. I do find it a little drying but as it isn't a daily use product this isn't really a problem.

Ive tried heaps of face scrubs and st Ives is definately the best. It makes my skin feel so soft and after a week the difference really is obvious. Smooth and silky. I love it!
the best face scrub around

St. Ives Apricot Scrub is priced great for how benefical this product is for your skin. Only a small amount is needed to cover your face with this excellent facial scrub.
Nothing. St. Ives Apricot Scrub is Perfect.

i don't like this product. first of all, the smell is so strong and strange. i think it supposed to be apricot smell but i just can't stand it. the grains is big and harsh on skin. it doesn't really cause me any irritation but my face is slightly red after using it. my skin doesn't feel any difference or smoother. i use it as a body scrub and it turns out to be quite good. however, because of the smell, i won't purchase it anymore.
it is cheap and good to use as a body scrub. it is available in small travel size.
the smell is too strong and strange. the grains are too big and harsh.

St Ives Apricot Scrub has a lovely smell and a fantastc natural, grainy texture that is perfect for lifting off all those old, dry and dead skin cells from my face and neck. I love that I can pick it up from any supermarket for an inexpensive price and a little goes a long way!
Gentle and effective scrub that leaves my skin feeling soft and smooth without irritating it.

I love St Ives it is a trusted brand and has been around for a long time. You only need a little amount and scrub your face and neck. Your skin feels soft and supple and refreshed. It removes dead skin cells so your skin feels bright and clean.In fact the skin is left with a glow to it. It can be used on all skin types and is not greasy or does not dry out the skin. Its give the skin a great exfoliation and feels like you've just had a facial. It is very reasonably priced and available in supermarkets or department stores. Definitely recommend it to anyone
Great product - definitely works.

I like this product and have only occasionally had a reaction to using it. It has a nice smell and is easy to use and comes in a good sized tube so that it will last for some time. It is relatively inexpensive to purchase at the supermarket.
A nice flavour, it does leave your skin looking better. Available at lots of supermarkets and stores. Not too expensive and will last for some time. A good product to have in the bathroom cabinet.
Occasionally the product can feel a bit harsh on my skin but it has not happened too often.

I bought this after having trouble with my usual scrub. I was really surprised at the results it left my skin feeling really soft and clean and smells really nice. What most surprised me was that it cost me half as much as my usual scrub so now St Ives is my new usual scrub. Would recommend this highly especially now when every dollar counts for anyone that wants to feel pampered and have their skin look smooth and good
This product is inexpensive and it works. No bad reactions on my skin a really great product.
There is nothing I dislike

I love this product, the best in scrubs ever. It has excellent properties to smooth my skin and remove the dead skin even after the first wash. It doesnt burn my skin like other scrubs and it doesnt has a fragrance that is not good for me. I love the product and reckon should be used by women irrespective of their age, as it really smooths your skin even if you are a teenager or an oldie. It has excellent properties to use instead of spending dollars on a facial. Its a quicky and in the comfort of your own home.
Excellent product and leaves my skin soo smooth
Nothing really

This is a great skin care product that I consider a must have. I use it about once a week, or when I feel my skin has a build up of dirt and other impurities. It's gentle on the skin and washes away easily, without having to scrub excess off with a washer. I'm very happy with this item and will continue using it.
It leaves my skin feeling smooth and clean. It's cheap and easy to use.
I was told by a skin care professional that the beads used in the scrub were too small, but I have not experienced any negatives from using it for approximately one year.
