Description
So fresh! From America's #1 scrub brand*, St. Ives award-winning Fresh Skin Apricot Face Scrub contains 100% natural walnut shell powder to deeply exfoliate and remove impurities for clean, glowing skin. This deep-cleaning face scrub is made with 100% natural exfoliants and apricot fruit extract, known to help leave skin feeling super soft and smooth.
Apricots are our thing. Our apricots come from sun-drenched California and North Africa. Our walnuts are grown in orchards in California and harvested in the fall where the shells are milled into a powder without jagged edges. Just the way we like it.
This scrub is dermatologist tested, paraben free, non-comedogenic (not tending to cause blocked pores), and oil free. And it’s simple to use. Just squeeze a dime sized amount onto your fingertips and massage onto damp skin. Spread in small circular motions to wake your skin’s natural circulation. When you’re done, rinse and glow. For best results, use 3-4 times a week.
St. Ives products are made with 100% natural moisturizers, exfoliants, and/or extracts to bring the joy of nature into our skin care products to give you soft, refreshed skin that glows. St. Ives does not test on animals anywhere in the world and is certified Cruelty-Free by PETA.
When it comes to making you glow, St. believes that spending more time with nature can boost your happiness and have a serious de-stress effect of your mind, body and skin care. Through #NatureReset, we all can get our glow on. Learn more about our skin care products at STIVES.COM.

Good product to use in the winter, for gentle exfoliation. Also good for aging skin, that is more thin. My only issue is, that it is now very difficult to find in my state, at any retailer.

I love this product so much, i use it on my face, arms & buttocks area its literally the only thing that doesnt make me break out or cause any irration or redness, i use it every morning in the shower and my skin just feels amazing afterwards, ive tried so many expensive products from epicuren, to the department stores brands but i always come back to this and decided to just stick to it. I've already gone threw 4 bottles before writing this comment in months. And the face that it works and is cheap its perfect, i love that it doesnt contain sodium hydroxide for some reason sodium hydroxide makes me break out it and it leaves my skin red, dry and burned.

There is ground up walnut shells in this which can cause micro tears on your face. Do not use!

I’ve tried many other exfoliants but I keep coming back to this one! It works great with my skin and has just enough “scrub” to work perfectly. I use it a few times per week in the shower.

I love this scrub! I’ve been using this product for over 10 years. I use it daily in the shower, it removes dirt and oil to brighten my face. I naturally do have combination/ oily skin so this product really helps reduce the number of outbreaks I have while keeping my face looking fresh specially in my T zone. It’s my go to scrub!

I wanted to reach out, I have not really been to St.Ives website. I have been using the Apricot scrub- marketed for sensitive skin for over 18 years now. When I go without it I have a breakout. This is the only product my skin has loved. Thank you! Having clear skin is hard and too many products out there don't work. This is the number one best item and I hope It will always be available. Thank you for continuing. Please market it better, I tell my friends about it just like my friend told me when I was 15. Too many people don't know about how amazing this is.

The best scrub for face and body. Not too rough, doesn’t make the shower slippery, nice but not lingering scent. Highly recommend St. Ives as none of the others or generics work as well.

Junebug - 9 months ago, Verified purchaser
I've used this product for probably a decade and always loved it. However, the last one I bought smelled awful, no apricot scent at all. I could barely stand to wash my face with it. Thinking maybe I had a bad one, I bought another....same thing. Seems to have happened alongside the new look of the packaging. Looking into making the switch to a different scrub after all these years, I just can't handle the smell now.
