Pros:

Pros:

Works great on oily skin, refreshes nicely.

Cons:

The new scent in a word STINKS! Why did they have to change the smell???

I've used this product for years and loved it! In the past few months I noticed they now sell a slightly different version with "new scent" printed on the tube. This smell is bad enough to make you gag!! As such I can no longer use it unless, somehow, I'm able to find the tubes without the "new scent" advertised on it.

Pros:

It gets the crap off of your skin.

Cons:

It leaves your skin red and a little dry.

This product works if you're the type that is not very zitty, and have kinda tough skin. I wouldn't suggest this for the Average Joe, though. (Ha! Rhymes!)

Pros:

makes my skin super soft!!!
smells great!!!
was pretty cheap!

Cons:

i heard it makes microscopic tears in your skin which creates wrinkles

I love this product because it makes my skin feel amazing and smooth!!! I love the smell of it because it smells so fresh and clean!!!! I used it before and it sort of cleared up some pimples, but i only use it once a week because its very drying!!! I looked at other reviews, websites, and dermatologist reviews and saw that they say that it makes microscopic tears in your skin which can then cause wrinkles later in life and will make you look older than you really are!!! So the bottom line is that i would recomend this if u only use it every 2 weeks or so.

Pros:

Smells great
Your skin is softer to the touch and feels cleaner from the first use
It exfoliates your skin really well
Removes oil fron your face without over drying

Cons:

Does nothing to actually prevent pimples or breakouts or treat present ones

This product smells great, works well as an exfoliant, but nothing in the breakout control department. It works well also in clearing up marks on your face and evening your skin tones

Pros:

Smells nice, leaves face feeling very clean.

Cons:

Does not help with blackheads. May dry skin a bit.

I have the blemish & blackhead kind, it does keep my pimples to a minimum but will not get rid of blackheads (nothing over the counter will). Does leave your face feeling smooth and clean and gets rid of any tiny bumps. There is a bit of dryness after I use it but a mild lotion helps.

Pros:

GREAT! CHEAP! Worked better then some of my clinique, Lancome, Elizabeth Arden...... SAVES ALOT OF MONEY!

Cons:

Can be a bit drying, so i suggest using about 2-3 x a week, and use a good moisterizer after.

It is truly AMAZiiNG! I recieved an email from MEG (MUA) about this, and thought id give it a try! LITERALLY the first night my skin IMPROVED dramatically, it helped to rid of scaring, blemishes, & clogged pores. My skin; for the first time in years, felt smooth and clear! If you dont believe the great reviews, why not see for yourself....... Something AMAZiiNG could come out of it, and if not, whats $3.00..........?!

Pros:

ST. Ives Apricot Scrub definately leaves you with a fresh, invigorating scent. I felt like i had taken off my gross layer of skin and had a new one on!

Cons:

Though apricots don't smell bad, i wish they had alternatives for scent. The beads are very big like sandpaper, a little rough.

This won't clear up existing acne but definately helps get rid of dirt and oil on application and keeps skin fresher to prevent acne later on.
