I love The Body Shop skincare products especially the Tea Tree and Seaweed line, but this is my least favorite exfoliator I have ever used. When I exfoliate I expect to feel microbeads scrubbing away at the dirt and makeup clogged in my pores but this felt more like rubbing lotion with tiny soft marbles on my face. I've had two of these since I accidentally bought it again and each one I had the cap broke after a couple of uses and the cap wouldn't close. So not only did I not like the packaging but I also didn't like the exfoliator itself. If you are looking for a soft and gentle exfoliator than this might be good for you, but if you want a good scrubbing exfoliator try the seaweed lines pore cleansing exfoliator.

i read reviews expecting this product would be a great exfoliator, but it didn't meet my expectations. I was looking for a exfoliator that had microbeads or apricot powder, instead the exfoliator are crushed apricot stones. It doesn't exfoliate well and it feels scratchy on my skin. I don't use it everyday but it says that it can to help reduce blackheads. Exfoliating everyday will only cause more blackheads to develop.

Brilliant! I had very visible blackheads around my nose and also on my chin, but since using this every day for 2 weeks they can hardly be seen.

So impressed!

This is an OK exfoliator, but doesn't do squat for blackheads/breakouts. I've learned not to use it when I have a breakout because the beads irritate it further. I like to use it after I exercise because it unclogs my pores and makes my skin feel really clean. Overall, it's okay, but I would not buy it again.

Love the smell, love the feeling after I'm all washed up, but the beads are quite big and totally get stuck in my hair haha!

This is nice to use in the summertime when ya get sweaty n' junk.. great to use if you weren't wearing makeup that day and wanted a REAL clean looking and feeling face.

I don't use a lot of products at all for skincare, I got this as part of a gift and do like it. I'd buy it again if it was available in a bundle sale -- I think it was about $12?

I love the tea tree facial cleanser, but I'm not crazy about this. The beads are REALLY big, and don't feel very effective. Not a bad product, just not great. There are much better scrubs.

I didn't really find this did anything. It helped keep my acne/oily skin under control, but didn't improve it. I have also read a lot about how using scrubs to exfoliate can irritate already blemished skin, so I haven't been using it much lately.


I will not be purchasing any tea tree oil products again (except for the concealer, which I like), as I just do not find them helpful for acne-prone skin. I think they are helpful if you get bacteria-related acne, but not acne that is related to hormones or oil-production.

I don't like this scrub. I wish the exfoliants were finer and less abrasive. The scrub isn't gentle. It irritated my skin, and gave me whiteheads after i used it. I would definatley not recommend this to anyone or repurchase it.

I used this scrub a while back and I was happy with it. It made my skin soft, clear, small pores and clean. I will repurchase.
