Pros:

Smell great
gives you smooth skin

Cons:

make you break out a lot!

This is one of the products that works for your skin at first, but as soon as you've seen slight changes on your acne, you skin starts to get worse. This product can make your skin dry, and I don't recommend it for people with acne skin.

Very irritating on my skin
I tried the St.Ives apricot scrub a couple times as a method to exfoliate my sebderm but after only 2 uses I had to throw this product away. It had a nice fragrance but that was pretty much the only redeeming quality. It caused my skin to redden and it irritated my whole face. I found the added exfoliants to be abrasive. I guess I prefer a chemical exfoliator. Very disappointed at the wasted money I shelled out to buy this.

Pros:

- Makes skin look healthier
- has a nice scent
- softens skin

Cons:

- doesnt get rid of acne
- over-dries skin
- rought texture

I got this a few months ago and i decided to try it and see what it could do for my acne. One month and then two months went by and it did do anything for my whiteheads and frequent pimples. It over-dried my skin and the texture was so rough that if i had a pimple it made it become even more irratated and it looedk worse than before.

irritated my skin causing brakeouts

I don't recommed this product to people who are tring to get rid of there acne. This product will increase your acne. I do recommed this product to everyone who has dry skin.
