First let me say I really love the fact this leaves my skin soft and the way it smells. The way it smell is def. the best thing about it. I don't think it is really a good scrub though, it has...

I received this as a sample with my regular Mario order. I tried it for the first time today and my initial thought was this looks like a great exfoliator as I could see the ground up almonds in...

Mmmmm love the smell of this product. And it works too! It's really gentle, with few grains. I use his 2 or 3 times a week, and it leaves my combination-oily skin, smooth, soft, and clear....

I received a generous sample of this product and before using it jumped onto MUA to read the reviews. I am going to have to agree with the majority here, it is definitely not a very effective...

I regret to give bad a review but I did not like this product AT ALL. I understand that it's supposed to be a gentle scrub but the larger almond pieces are too scarce and the ground almond and...

I finally tried this scrub, and am pretty happy with it. MB scrubs are not like a traditional apricot scrub that rips your face apart. This, like the Kiwi scrub, is a very gentle exfoliator that...

One of the only MB products that Im not fond of at all. There wasn't really enough stuff in this to be considered a scrub- in my opinion. It also seemed to leave some kind of a residue-feeling on...

I don't know why there are so many bad reviews of this product! It really is the most gentle exfoliant I've ever come across. There are no sharp pieces in it like other reviewers suggested. (Maybe...

I see that most of the other folks here aren't too impressed with this scrub. If you are looking for something heavy duty, then this is not for you, but if you are like me and need something more...

Great product to use as a mask as it dries off fast and gives me a dewy & soft finish after I rinse off. But as a facial scrub, the pretty big Almond chunks are too big to exfoliate my clogged...

First of all, I can't get enough of how this stuff smells! It smells so yummy! This product works great as a cleanser but not as a face scrub. It makes my face feel moisturized and soft.

Non-abrasive? What the hell do they mean by that exactly? There are jagged razor sharp chunks of stuff in there, but only a handful. This means that it doesn't exfoliate but you are sure to get...

Although I agree with some of the posts that this doesn't seem like a great exfoliator- the almond chunks are rather larger than the normal grit in exfoliators- it works wonders for me. The...
