I'm not using this product at the moment, (I'm currently using Aapri apricot facial scrub for oily/combination skin) I have used this in the past. I remember my skin feeing very fresh, and although it is a scrub, I've found the texture to be creamier and less coarse than usual, which is great especially for sensitive skins.

I have used this product before as I am a St. Ives product lover. I have used this product in a creamier base- the product in a tube- as well as the harder base- the product shown above in a jar. I will say that i was very disappointed in this product in a jar as compared to it being in a tube for mainly the consistency. f you have sensitive skin, DO NOT use thisd product in the jar as the consistency is different and the base is a little harsher on the skin. Although you would be using the smae product the consistency is the make or break a product. I love the Apricot scrub shown above. I just prefer something more softer for my sensitive skin. This particular product left my face red and feeling like a piece of shgeet rock, even after I followed the directions on the back of the product. That is mainly why I am disappointed with this product, but interms of its effectivenes, when the proper precautions are taken, it works perfectly fine. THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION IS FOR ANYONE WHO IS CONCERNED ABOUT SUN EXPOSURE IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE USE OF SOME SAINT IVE'S PRODUCTS : As I stated, I am a Saint Ives fan all the way. The Saint Ives Company has gotten their share of complaints about this particular product and their other products being hypoallergenic and causing ill effects on people who have sensitive skin. They have wsinbce made a gentle version of the same product and made a "Naturally Clear" brand of more natural products. ALSO PLEASE BE AWARE THAT A PERCENTAGE OF BEAUTY PRODUCTS HAVE ALPHA-HYDROXY ACIDS IN THEM WHICH REQUIRE YOU TO USE SUNSCREEN WHEN WEARING THESE PRODUCTS DURING INITIAL AND PERSISTENT USE OF THESE PRODUCTS. ON THE BOTTLES, ALWAYS READ THE FINE PRINT AND BE AWARE OF VARIOUS INGREDIENTS AND THEIR ABBREVIATIONS ON THESE PRODUCTS. I have posted the following links as a help to other users regarding the products mentioned : Sensitive Skin Gentle Apricot Scrub : http://www.stives.com/MISC/Sensitive-Skin/Apricot-Scrub-Gentle/ Saint Ives Naturally Clear Line: http://www.stives.com/Facial-Products/Naturally-Clear/ Saint Ives Lotion With AlphaAcids (AHAs) : http://www.stives.com/Hand-(and)-Body-Lotion/Preserve-and-Protect/Naturally-Smooth-Body-Lotion/ Saint Ives Apricot Scrub Non- Gentle Formula - The Jar Product Is The One I Am Reviewing (Shown on Website in Tube Form) : http://www.stives.com/Facial-Products/Fresh-Skin/Invigorating-Apricot-Scrub/ I HOPE I HELPED :)

Favorite exfoliator treatment that I use 3-4x per week. Has really helped heal old acne scars and fade sun spots.
