REVIEW: ST.IVES APRICOT SCRUB
02:54
Hey everyone!
This review
is about one of my favorite product which has been in my skin care routine for
years now. I generally go picking for products randomly be it makeup or skin
care because I always liked experimenting with new things and nothing can make
me more happy than buying cosmetics J, not only for me but for many girls!. My skin is prone
to acne, blackheads and skin related issues, which I generally mention in all
my posts. I experiment many products to figure out which suits me the best. I
have tried almost all the scrubs which claim to remove the hardest of the
hardest blackhead but nothing worked on my skin, sadly! I accidently
encountered this product and wanted to try it.

My experience:
Removing
those layers of dead cells is very important in our skin care routine and for
oily skin it's really important to unclog those pores by exfoliating every 2
alternative days(depends on skin's requirement). There are basically three exfoliation
factor of scrubs as far as I know – mild, moderate and deep. This scrub is a
deep exfoliation scrub.
This product
is quite thick creamy consistency and a small coin size amount is required for
pulling those bad guys out of your skin and the product smells amazinggggg!!!.
The product is said to have natural exfoliants and you could feel the hard
walnut shells granule which are a bit big when compared to the other usual
apricot or walnut scrubs.
I scrub my face 2 to 3 times a week by
massaging it with little pressure. After every usage, I could feel the skin
becoming smooth and blackhead free, even though its not 100% blackhead free
but it tends to remove the blackhead to a greater extent and gives a smooth
skin. Skin tends to feel little sensitive due to its deep exfoliation. When I
used the scrub for more than 2-3 times or over scrubbed at times, my skin becomes
dry and flaky. The scrub contains hard granules which gives the skin a deep exfoliation,
so over usage of this scrub is not advisable. But it didn’t break me out at any
point, a big yayyy for that.
Pros:
- Tube packaging.
- Affordable.
- No parabens.
- Non comedogenic.
- Sulfate free.
- Removes blackheads to greater extend and gives smooth skin.
- Product last really long.
- Smells amazing.
Cons:
- May not suit dry skin people.
Would
definitely recommend this product.
