Hello Bloggers! Today I am reviewing a face scrub from one of my favorite brands St. Ives. This is the St. Ives Fresh Skin Apricot Scrub. At first glance, you may feel that the exfoliating particles may be too rough or harsh but the scrub does an excellent job of exfoliating. It's not rough on the skin though- not like some scrubs where your face kind of feels like it's burning after. The cream with apricot extract that binds these particles together is quite hydrating and leaves the skin so soft! I am really surprised and happy with the results.
The directions specify that this product should be used 3 to 4 times a week but I think it might be too much, I just use it twice a week (evening). This work well for me, keeping my skin looking fresh and bright but may be a bit harsh for people with a sensitive skin.
I must admit that it has impressed me. My skin always feels soft and smooth even until the next day. I've been using it for over a year already. Let me tell you, I still can't get enough of it! It's supposed to be a facial scrub but I don't mind using it all over my body. Haha!
Remember that we all have different skin types or may react differently to certain products. What works for me, may not work for you. It's better to check the product first if it suits you well and discontinue use when causes you irritation.
