Pros:

This product is great even for my sensitive acne prone skin. After using this scrub my skin looks and feels healthy and has removed alot of dull surface skin.

Cons:

If you are gong to use this product daily like me, you have to be gentle!! Do not scrub too hard, let the natural exfoliants do the job rather than damage.

I suffer from whiteheads on my chin and blackheads on my nose area which sometimes get infected and turn into nasty pimples! However after adding this scrub to my routine i have found it has no negative effects, but has made my skin softer and smoother and ultimatly more healthy by removing alot of impurities. Just remember be gentle, you do not need to apply alot of pressure when the exfoliants are that big!

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:

It made my big pimple smaller over the night, on my first try using this product

Cons:

It takes a while for it to work.

Its an affordable price, and clears out your acne a bit. And makes your skin softer too.

a dermatologist told me to only use scrubs once or twice a week cuz if you use it everyday it gives you even more pimpels

Pros:

Smells good

Cons:

Didn't clear up my acne, irritated my sensitive skin

Don't use this if you have sensitive skin. It didn't even clear up my blackheads and it irritated my skin. I now know the grains in St. Ives isn't good for sensitive skin. It'll only aggravate existing acne, and could lead to more.

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!
