The scent is great, and the product can be very effective for its low price. However, if you have dry, sensitive, or even tempermental skin; I would steer you toward another product. It's better as a nody scrub if you (like myself) struggle with textured skin.
Good

Classic scrub that really smooths! The apricot exfoliants leave skin feeling soft and refreshed, though it can be a bit harsh if used every day. Great for a deep clean a couple of times a week.

St. Ives Acne Control is a product I keep coming back to. After reading mixed reviews about the scrub particles, I was unsure, but I gave it a chance — and now it’s been 4 years of consistent use. I use it on my body all the time, and about once a month on my face. It’s gentle yet effective, has no overwhelming scent, and is super easy to wash off. The price-to-quality ratio is unbeatable, and I’ve never had irritation or allergies. A must-have in my skincare routine!
Affordable and Effective

The St. Ives Acne Control Apricot Face Scrub is an affordable and effective addition to my skincare routine. I use it twice a week, and the rough texture does an excellent job of exfoliating my skin, leaving it feeling incredibly smooth and soft. The scent is a pleasant, subtle apricot fragrance that isn't overpowering, and the squeeze tube makes the packaging super easy to use
Not to harsh!

Very harsh for your face. If you like really tough scrubs then this is the one for you. If not, then I won’t recommend. Cute repackaging. Affordable pricing.

It’s been 15 years since I last tried this product. At 32 suddenly I was dealing with acne. This always did the trick when I was teen so I bought it again and it definitely helped with my breakout.

Love this scrub!! The scrub has a muted nor strong sent good for people who sent into strong sent it dose have sigh peach undertones with the sent but not too much. I think the peaches on the package is cute. I have used this product for over two weeks now and I can see a big change in my skin I can now say good bye acne. The texture is grainy which is to be expected with a scrub but they don’t hurt and only add to the cleansing process I feel Ike I lifted all the dirt out
Perfect product

If you want a good face scrub that helps get rid of dirt and impurities this is it. Perfect for any skin. I would recommend using a nice face oil after this to avoid any drying.but it's super effective in giving you that spa like skin.
Never ever again

Lover and a hater - 4 months ago
If you have large pores and you're looking to exfoliate, don't use this. The scrubby grity things in it will get stuck in your pores. I never struggled with acne, so I didn't think much about using this stuff. omg.. an hour later after using it,my face was covered in whiteheads.
Love it!

I really liked this product overall. I think it is perfect for people with dry skin cause it’s gets flakes off and still moisturized my skin. I would only use it 3 times a week cause even the best exfoliants can damage skin.
My classic fave

⸻ I love love this scrub! It’s the only one that truly leaves my face feeling smooth and prepped for makeup. You really can’t beat the price. The texture seem to really get in my skin without getting in my eyes, etc. doesn’t dry my skin, although it does a have a apricot scent to it. I stopped using it for a while and tried a more expensive brand—but came back to this and immediately remembered why I loved it. It makes my skin look fresh and youthful, never dull. A classic that actually works!
