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.

the kids busted a coffee table top that was made outa that tempered safety glass that broke into a million tiny nuggets of glass...
so now I just mix that with some moisturizing shampoo.....really takes off the outer layers, man O0

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.

No, use in shower prior to shave. Gets dead skin out of way for shaving, softens up the hair. Then HeadSlick, shave, ClearHead or alcohol afterwards. I have oily skin so no HeadLube, but many of the guys use the matte or the shiny depending on preference
-
Cool.. I wil stop by walmart afterwork and try it out..
I use headlube matte.. like it..
-
Target also sells a generic brand that is compared to St. Ives for about $1.50 cheaper.

invige :@`rating for me :@` :@`

I use the Target version because it saves me money, I normally like the acne and blackhead control kind. The apricot scrub is really nice, I use it on my head after I shave and on my face. I got some from Walgreens or Bartell Drugs one time and its really good.
