Q: Does this scrub contain plastic microbeads?

submitted by Kitku - 8 years ago
  • A: No they melt away. It’s not plastic. I’ve used this product for many years and I personally love it and doesn’t dry out my skin

    submitted byJ - 8 years ago
  • A: Great question, Kitku! This does not have any microbeads, but uses Jojoba Esters as an exfolient which is natural and safe for the enviroment. We're removing microbeads from all our lines, and will be completly microbead-free by the end of 2017. Let us know if you have any questions!

Scent is horrible

Ok so this stuff works well but the scent is so strong and unpleasant I will not buy it again. And I'm not one of those people who think everything smells bad or strong but this is waaaayyy too strong. It makes me not want to use it because it's competing with my body spray. Did they change the scent?

Good for body acne

I like this body scrub. It helped clear up acne on my back and shoulders during the summer when I sweat. The scent is refreshing and not overpowering. The scrub is a little thick making it effective at scrubbing out acne

Not the best for Sensitive Skin

Its works but doesnt, it started to work but then my breakouts still continued and caused some bumps and redness on my skin, maybe too sensitive for it but maybe I feel like I was rubbing too much.

Scrub Away

It’s been a hot minute since I’ve used this product, but I remember it working nicely and giving my back acne some relief. Lathered nicely and had a pleasant scent. Would love them to remake this with more natural ingredients.

Gently exfoliates and reduces acne

I’ve been using this product for years and I love it! It gently exfoliates and since it has salicylic in it, it works great for acne prone skin. It also smells good!

Effective body scrub with salicylic acid that help

I’ve been using the Neutrogena Body Clear Exfoliant Body Scrub for a few weeks and I’m really impressed. The salicylic acid helps clear body breakouts without being too harsh. The texture is gentle but effective, it spreads easily, rinses clean, and doesn’t leave my skin feeling dry. With regular use, my skin feels smoother, clearer, and more balanced. Great option for acne-prone body skin.

Skin maintenance

I would say this body scrub is primarily for skin health maintenance. It did not help me with body acne, but it did keep my skin very clean without feeling overstripped. It has a nice scent and makes you feel clean and fresh. It helps with dead skin cells but doesn't leather much.

The perfect ally against body acne

If you are dealing with pimples on your back, shoulders or chest (the famous "bacne"), the Neutrogena Body Clear Body Scrub is undoubtedly one of the best investments you can make. I love that it combines the chemical exfoliation of acid with small micro-peads. You feel your skin instantly softer when you get out of the shower, removing that rough texture or "goosebumps"

Don’t love the smell, but helps fight acne

Don’t love the smell of this product but it works pretty well for fighting and preventing acne. It helps to clear skin on the arms, back, etc. but can also be a bit drying with long term use

Cleanse my skin and doesn’t dry me out

This product has greatly reduced the breakouts in my back/shoulders and cleaned my pores so well. Not a rough feel. You can use it every day, and it leaves no residue on my skin!

Gentle Yet Effective Body Exfoliation for Clear, S

I’ve been using the Neutrogena Body Clear Exfoliant Body Scrub for a few weeks, and I’m really impressed with the results. The exfoliating beads feel effective but not harsh, leaving my skin smooth and refreshed after every shower. It rinses off easily without leaving residue, and my skin feels clean, soft, and comfortable—not dry or irritated. I especially like using it on areas prone to breakouts, and I’ve noticed my skin looks clearer and more even over time. It’s gentle enough for regular use and works well for my skin type.

Great!

This body wash is pretty great. It really helps clear up my body acne within a couple of uses. I generally only use this wash when my acne gets bad though because it seriously drys out my skin. It smells very grapefruity which is pleasant.

Targets body acne and clogged pores but may leave

Effective body scrub that unclogs pores, fights body acne, smooths skin. An effective body scrub that cleans pores, but may cause slight tightness after use daily use.
