good but a little rough on skin
I bought this a few months ago in superdrug. The price was really cheap so I feel its good for the price. The scrub deep cleans the skin so i only tend to use it twice weekly. It is a little too rough for me personally for everyday use. Would recommend in between a proper skincare routine but not for overly sensitive skin.

Trustworthy
I have been using St.Ives for over 5 years and it has always been nothing but beneficial. These product helps get rid of dirt/oil off of your face allowing your skin to restart from scratch. It can be a bit irritating when overused to try to limit yourself from using it every other day.

When you run out of Proactive and have to get a drugstore brand...
This is a good proactive deep substitute in a pinch. Great exfoliant, unmedicated and gentle.

Excellent

Pros:

Amazing Scent
Dead skin removal (leaving my skin super soft and wanting to touch it!)
Affordable price

Cons:

May be fairly abrasive if you scrub too hard with it. (But, I find it works great for me- so be careful and use with care))

I'm a 17-year old male that uses this product. As a male, I never really go "experimenting" with products, I kind of just buy it based on looks and sometimes what my sister recommends me. I wouldn't say it necessarily helps with acne, but I find it exfoliating and dead skin-removing amazing, that being said I hear people thinking it's too rough etc, I think it's just the way it's being used, my skin is fairly sensitive yet it still works wonders. When Scrubbing I notice a stingy feeling, which I believe is normal in order for the acid to removes dead skin cells, oil, and other impurities.

Meh.

Pros:

does a good job at sloughing off flaky skin
smells AMAZING
inexpensive

Cons:

can be too abrasive

First of all, I love the smell of it. Even the tube itself smells good (don't ask me how I know that.) However, I feel like it's a bit too abrasive for my face. It sloughs off dead skin fairly well. I use it for my body in the shower and it works wonderfully for that!

okay not great
It's just okay. I have severe acne, and I don't like the beads in it. It is very irritating to my already inflamed skin. Also the tiny beads get stuck in my small dents on my face which are still not completely healed. I don't like that at all. It probably works better for mild acne. Definitely don't try this with severe acne...too harsh and will irritate your skin more.

It's okay

Pros:

Cleans pores
light
cheap

Cons:

Doesn't prevet acne

I would say this is best for young children, may be 10-14. It worked great until I turned 15 then I needed a stronger wash. But for the price its fine. More for someone with light acne nothing more.

Feels nice but makes breakouts much worse

Pros:

Made my face feel nice

Cons:

Caused acne

Wow. So I used this product for over a year. My acne kept getting worse and worse and eventually I started suspecting it was the St. Ives causing this after my younger brother tried it and it made his breakouts much worse. I stopped using St. Ives and within 2-3 weeks my acne had cleared up exponentially.
