September 3, 2008

Pros:

- A Great exfoliant for people with thicker skin (Black, African) that has the tendency to be rough and dry.
- Great for the entire body!
- A little goes a long way

Cons:

I HATE the new scent

I've been using this product for years. Though the packaging and scent have changed over the years, it continues to deliver the same results.... but jeez i wish the scent would remain the way it used to be: pure, simple but elegant.

Pros:

Been using for 15 years, works great

Cons:

Hate the new scent, wish they would bring back the old along with the other (easy to use) container - smaller lid to open.

Will still use if they bring back the old scent

Pros:

gets rid of dead skin, doesn't leave my skin shiny, feels great and smells ok

Cons:

if you use it everyday it doesn't have great affects...

I use it twice a week along with apricot clenser and my skin isn't half bad! I like the product!

Pros:

- affordable
-exfoliates well
-less breakouts

Cons:

none

I've heard many people say this is bad for your skin, but I do not suffer from sensitive skin. I bought this product by chance and I'm grateful, this is the ONLY change I've made in my skincare routine and my skin has never been clearer.

Pros:

none

Cons:

made my acne worse and destroyed my skin

do NOT use on sensitive skin. I only used it for three days and my skin was cut and I broke out horribly. I then found out that the beads are just mashed up apricot seeds which are not good for your skin at all. If I could I would give this product a 0!

Pros:

This product smells like a dream, and works well to clean skin. It doesn't over dry skin or seem to cause breakouts.

Cons:

I find this scrub not effective enough for my acne. I also have oily/sensitive skin easily prone to blackheads. The thing I am down about is some of the ingredients. It contains Sodium Laureth Sulfate and parabens...

St. Ives Apricot Scrub is a nice, reasonably priced product that works well for acne and keeps oily skin at bay.
October 19, 2009

Pros:

I really like the texture of my skin and it is clearing up nicely. I have light to med breakouts and I've tried pretty much everything. It's been a week, I will check back over time to see if it's tried and true.

Cons:

Slight drying but it's managible.

I have sensitive and oily skin and I use it in the morning in the shower. I use oil of olay at night to remove any make up I have on and it's going great. It's the time of month where I usually break out and I have no acne at all. But it's only been a week. I need to see how it goes in a few more weeks. Good luck all!
September 27, 2009

Pros:

It is affordable, it exfoliates well and gently. But, it leaves my skin feeling a little dry afterward. It may work on light acne.

Cons:

It does not get rid of your acne, it made me break out even more.

It did not work for me, and it did not get rid of my acne.
August 29, 2009

Pros:

it did what it said it would do.. it left my skin smooth, soft and al the dead skin was washed away leaving me with a GLOW

Cons:

so far none..i hope it remains like this

Its a great product..
