This srcubs works great. It can be harsh so be very gentle with it. I use this on a weekly base to exfoliate my face and it feels great especially in the shower.

I used to use another brand of daily scrub but I decided to give this one a try after some research online. After first use, I noticed the blackhead around my nose is minimized, which means it cleans better than the scrub I used to use. I've tried serveral other brands before and I found this one to be the most effective so far.

I've been using it for a year now and it does a good job. However, I don't recommend to use it everyday because this scrub is not as gentle as the other kind that's designed for daily use. Too much scrubbing can enlarge pores. I use it every other day instead.

It doesn't completely eliminate the blackhead deep down. I don't think any scrub will do that anyway except deep cleaning mask.

The grainuals are just a good enough size to give your face a grat exfoliation; leaving it smooth and clean. The flip top lid is great...you only need one hand to open/close, making it easy to use in the shower.

St. Ives apricot scrub! Yikes, this stuff is soooo harsh and rough. It practically ripped my poor face to shreds. Using it on the face was darn near painful- the walnut/apricot pieces felt so sharp- I am convinced this scrub probably caused microscopic cuts all over. Left me pink and irritated and seemed to make my pores look worse. I honestly don't see how this can be recommended for the face (but, then again, maybe I am just too delicate). I used this up by using on elbows and feet and other areas where my skin is thicken. Manual exfoliants (especially this one!) are not for me.

Yikes! This scrub is definitely not for acne-prone skin. For the first couple of days, I loved how soft it left my skin. Then I started breaking out in whiteheads all over my face, even in places where my skin is normally clear (I get mainly hormonal acne on my chin). Since this is marketed as an oil-free anti-blemish product, I didn't realize it was the culprit. I used it for two weeks before I figured it out. Within three days of stopping my skin was back to normal. Also, I've since read that the scrubbing granules in this scrub are too sharp and cause micro-tears in the skin, which are bad on both a short- and long-term basis. I do not recommend this scrub.

Inexpensive, yet effective enough to smooth out your skin. Use it on face, neck, and chest area.

I've thought about trying this product for several years, but wasn't sure if I would like it. While it was on sale, I decided to just go for it, and it was totally worth it. I use it every 2-3 days, and it makes my skin feel so soft and clean. I love the way the scrub feels, because unlike some others it doesn't feel like it is scratching my face. I am absolutely in love with it and will by it again.
