Back in my teens - which has been behind me for more years than I’ll admit to - this was a staple in my beauty routine. My teenage skin required regular exfoliation to keep my pores healthy and all the nasties that loved to clog them at bay. At some point around my 20s, it just disappeared from my beauty routine - but I suspect it was because I’d moved to a very rural area where soap or Noxema were pretty much the only choices for facial cleansers. I still live in the same rural area, but Amazon delivers here, so my options are once again limitless. Imagine my surprise when I was looking for a gentle exfoliator to replace my pricey discontinued Vitamin C + lactic acid exfoliator (for my now “mature” skin) and stumbled across this. The formulation appeared to be updated from the version I remember (which was literally coarse-ground apricot pits, no cleanser, just a heavy paste of ground pits that we’d use to torture our skin). I fully admit that my purchase was a knee-jerk buy based solely on nostalgia. Life is busy so I put it out of my mind, but it arrived a few days later and it sat on my vanity until yesterday. I reached for it because I was in a hurry and it was handy. WOW. This is far less abrasive and much more uniform of an exfoliant than its predecessor. It now contains a cleanser so you can exfoliate + cleanse in one step. Upon rinsing, my skin felt sooo soft and smooth - comparable to (and maybe even better than) that pricey $30 product I’d been using. I applied my usual Vitamin C + E serum right after, and it sank into my skin and absorbed beautifully. My moisturizer acted in kind, and my skin was glowing. My foundation applied so smoothly it looked *almost* air brushed. Today, my skin still feels fantastic. I’m so impressed that I had to come here and write a review. I’ve been a bit of a skin care snob in my older years, but if I’d been given a blind trial of this product alongside my previous one, I wouldn’t have guessed that this was an affordable drug store product instead of something from a boutique beauty brand. Talk about an unexpected glow up for a beauty product. I can’t see not having this always on-hand again - what an unexpected surprise!

I know that a lot of people don’t like this product, I use it twice a week and it always gives me beautiful glowing skin!

Works well and this is good way to purchase

A classic that works. Rub gently for good exfoliation. If you scrub hard you'll take a layer of your face off Hannibal Lecter style.
