One of my skin care staples!
I picked up the Green Tea Scrub after the Apricot exfoliator was way too harsh for my skin. This scrub is great! It smells wonderful and it is gentle yet effective. I have fairly mild acne and sensitive skin - this product works perfectly for me and I found that it does NOT irritate my acne or my skin. I exfoliate with this product about twice a week and while I'm not sure it's effectiveness on my acne or oil, I know it is helping to clear some of the dead skin cells on my face. The morning after I use this product, I can see a visible improvement in the application of my face makeup. I would definitely pick up this product and incorporate it into your weekly skin care routine (although not as a daily wash!).

Love - I use it every night !!
Absolutely love this product. Previously I was using more expensive products in hopes of clearing my acne but they weren't working so I decided to try a cheaper route and thats when I found this product. I've been using it for about 6 months now and my acne is almost cleared. I don't think this product alone helped clear my skin but its been working for me and I encourage others to try it out considering its inexpensive.

Love it

Pros:

smells amazing
makes my skin feel super soft
helps my skin heal faster

I use this scrub 2 or 3 times a week. Any more than that is too harsh for my skin. I like how it removes dull skin and makes my skin brighter and softer. I love it so much it is amazing! When i have a scab or something after a pimple goes down, the scrub majorly speeds up the healing time.

I love this scrub. I currently use it about every other day, but have gone through periods of using it every day without problems. It really helped to smooth out the texture of my skin. Can be used as a mask, too.

Pros:

Smells great
Sensitive on the skin
Reduces redness
Many ways you can use it
Removes make up thoroughly!

Cons:

None that I can tell so far

I Love this product! I use it in the am and pm and it makes my skin feel refreshed! I feel like it does a good job of getting everything that's on my skin off and cleared away. Plus, it's a really gentle exfoliator that's great for everyday use. It never dried out my skin or made it red. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone that asked.

I've been using this for almost a month and it works great! I don't suggest using it if your pimple looks like its about to pop or if puss is showing!

Pros:

Makes skin soft
Non-irritating and gentle
Nice smell
Can be used daily
Doesn't cause breakouts

Cons:

None at all

I would definitely recommend this scrub. I have been in love with it since I have first used it and it has made my skin so soft. This is actually the only thing I use to wash my face and I used it twice a day for over a year and I am still using it. I have not experienced any negative side-effects and every time I try using a new scrub or cleanser they always break me out so I return to this one. I do admit it's not a miracle treatment for acne and I still experience the occasional breakout but I attribute that to hormones, not this product. If anything, I use this scrub because it is the only scrub that I trust won't break me out. I don't really use this scrub to treat my acne and I do not think a scrub alone will cure acne it has to be in combination with other products.

Everything!

Cons:

None

In combination with Garnier "PURE" Toner (which I use in the AM once I wake up, and in the PM after using St. Ives Naturally Clear) I am CLEAR of acne. I fought with mild/moderate acne for over a decade - this product is amazing and I wish I found it sooner. I am very thankful for this.
