Hey lovelies! I don't know about you, but I really love using and trying out facial scrubs because they always seem to have a noticeable affect on my skin - whether that's a bad or a good one. Over the years I have tried quite a few scrubs where it feels a little like I'm rubbing sand over my face and left my face sore but there are some facial scrubs out there that really do work wonders. The Apricot Scrub (£3.99) is one of them. I've been using this for several months now, once a week (and somehow this is still like half full?) so it's really great value. This particular scrub is meant for people with oily and blemish prone skin - as it is completely oil free!
One of the things that I really love about this scrub is that it smells and feels very natural - it has a lovely scent of Apricot and a slightly grainy texture (100% natural exfoliants). When you use this to scrub your face, you can really feel the effect it has but it's not harsh at all - so perfect if you have very sensitive skin like me. The only downside of this product is that (like most facial scrubs), it is a little bit of a nightmare to get off your skin, but so long as you wash your face thoroughly afterwards it should all be gone.
Whilst this is a relatively unknown brand, it is a secret favourite for a lot of people, because it really does work so well. I've only heard good things about this - so it's really worth buying if you're looking for a great facial scrub. It tends to be a bit hidden away in stores - it's usually quite out of the way in Superdrug, so keep your eye out for it.

DeleteGreat review :) I remember this being raved about on Youtube a few years ago and I loved the sound of it, but for some reason I never picked it up! I'll keep a look out for it when I'm next in Boots as I need a new face scrub!

Yeah it's really a great product but no one has really raved about it in a while! Definitely one of my all time beauty favourites already - and I've only used it for a few months!
DeleteThis product is amazing. I've been using this for almost 4 years and yes, it really helps you skin to glow.
ReplyDeleteI do really recommend this one to those who care for their skin. :)
Stay in Style,
