St. Ives Apricot Scrub - page 1 -

• St. Ives Apricot Scrub by mikesj on 04 May, 2007 22:09
• Based on some recommendations I wanted to try the St. ives Apricot scrub. When I went to check out my local Walgreen's, there were four versions of the scrub. Anyone know which one I should get (I was thinking the one labeled for "oily" skin to prevent blocked pores), but would like to hear which one people are using.

• I use "Invigorating" because it's the most exfoliating of all of them. I really like it a lot, even better than HeadShed, I think.

• I use the one with blemish control to avoid getting pimples.

• Ditto on Tyler's choice of the blemish control version

• I use blemish & blackhead control, cause that's all the store had.  I prefer the Headshed, but I'm about out and my order hasn't arrived yet.  Anyhow, the St. Ives really dries out my skin, much more than Headshed.

  I use both during my shave - HeadShed before I shave, St. Ives to scrub it clean afterward.  Probably overkill, but I don't get bumps very often.

• I picked up the "Smoothing" version at the commissary, it was all they had.  I don't recommend it...it's more of a body wash, not much exfoliating action at all.

  Invigorating here as well. There are so many scrubs out there but St Ive is inexpensive and lasts a good while. I use in Midweek Wednesday and on Saturday in the shower

• St. Ives is owned by Alberto-Culver.
  
  It should remain priced accordingly. If they ever jack up the price, move on.
