The Medicated Srub. Review on St. Ives Apricot Scrub

St. Ives Apricot Scrub

I don't know about all of you, but once a month I get a annoying little thing called adult acne. We all know why once a month I get that. If a man is reading this sorry but it's a woman thing, but I know men get adult acne too. My husband does when he eats food that are too greasy. I don't feel so bad about it anymore because I read somewhere that on Madonna's hate list is adult acne, made me feel she was human too.

I had tried several products. I have very dry skin and everything for acne seemed to dry it out even more, but didn't help the acne. Even though I use face cream after washing my face, I would still get dry patches on my face.

Now my mother-inlaw uses St. Ives Apricot Scrub that was just a face cleaner. She said it never left her face dried out. I had tried hers a couple of days while visiting and she was right, but it didn't help the adult acne any.

On day I went to Walmart looking for a face cleaner again, sure enough St. Ives had a Medicated Apricot Scrub for acne prone skin.

Here is what the bottle said: ''100% natural exfoliants gently lift away surface oils and dirt that can lead to blackheads and blemishes.''

So what the heck, I tried it. It works great, that one time a month that 4 or 5 pimples would show up, they didn't. My husband even tried it and went out and bought his own bottle. He is a crane operator and is around grease that gets into his skin. The best part is no dry patches.

Here are the ingredients: water, juglans mandshurica (walnut) shell powder, glyceryl stearate se, propylene glycol, sodium lauryl sulfate, zea mays (corn) kernel meal, cetyl alcohol, linoleamide dea, cetearyl alcohol, sambucus nigra flower (elder flowers) extract, glyceryl stearate, emulsifying wax nf, lanolin oil, peg-100 stearate, prunus armeniaca (apricot) kernel oil, caledula officinalis extract,

Another great this about this product is, it's not animal tested. None of St. Ives products are.

It has a very light and soft sent, that is pleasing to the nose.

How to use, moisten face, rub it in for about a minute, and rinse. I use did once a day.

It does feel a little sandy, and so you can feel it scrubbing your skin, but it's not so bad that it will make it raw. It feels rather good.
