Advantages: does what it says on the tube - good price

Disadvantages: none

i think that looking after the skin is so important and at 55 years old i do wish i'd looked after it better as the face is a dead give-away as far as age is concerned isn't it?

i always cleanse & moisturise morning & evening but like to give my face a good deep clean twice a week.

over the years i've tried dozens of face masks and scrubs - some very cheap & some hugely expensive so i'm now on a mission to find a good one at a reasonable price.

i noticed this st ives apricot scrub on offer at qualitysave for £2.59 so decided to try the 6oz (170g) tube as it claims to be a gentle exfoliator.

the tube is a good design - flat with a flip-open cap so the scrub can be easily used with no waste or spillage.

swiss formula

oil-free

100% natural exfoliants

plus they give a long list of ingredients for those whose eyesight is good enough & to whom they may make sense?!

texture & smell
~

lovely fresh smell which is hard to describe but is very fresh & not floral or feminine- just peachy and not too strong

texture is good - not too thick or runny. you can feel the little granules which do the exfoliating but they are very small which is good

directions
~
so easy - just moisten face, massage into skin with fingertips & rinse avoiding eye area

opinion
~
i found this to be a good gentle exfoliator which removed dead/old cells without any irritation to my face.

my skin looked healthier and felt smoother

summary
~

this worked well for me as i have quite sensitive skin

my 17 year old daughter used it as well & she was pretty impressed

i would recommend this gentle exfoliator from st ives - a good product for the price

Summary: a good gentle facial scrub for the price
