This is the best product I have used to improve the KP on the back of my arms. It's pretty expensive so I only use it once in a while or for special occasions.
Even if the bumps are still there after scrubbing, the surrounding skin is so smooth!
I have a tube and it can be quite difficult to squeeze out. Also, I prefer to apply this to wet skin so it spreads. Don't like dropping/wasting expensive products!

One of my favorite products. Works great and feels fantastic when applied. I've seen a difference in my skin since I've started using it. The perfect amount of scrub - not too harsh but you can feel it working!

This is my #1 choice of body scrub to use prior to self tanning. The base is creamy vs. an oil so it won't interfere with color development. I agree with previous reviewers that it can get pretty messy so it's best to apply it while standing in the shower/tub. The more vigorously you scrub the product around, the more the granules will fly all over the place! I find that this works just fine if my skin is already watered down. It stays on the skin pretty well -- the base is paste-like in texture, and the granules I believe are a mix of oats, crushed rice, and corn cob bits so they don't dissolve like a sugar or salt scrub does. I can get a good rubdown from head to toe without using a ton of product. This scrub really helps to de-flake the skin and make it smooth as can be. I would suggest sampling first for those with very sensitive skin because it's quite coarse. This, and BlissLabs lemon and sage body scrub are my favorite creamy body exfoliating products. NOTE: this product is pictured packaged in a jar, but it's now available in a large squeeze tube which is an improvement.

I received this with a set of three. The moisturizer and the cleanser were great, but I am not crazy about the body scrub. You have to apply this dry. It is best to stand in your shower, as pieces of the scrub get everywhere while you are rubbing it on. I made this mistake the first time and it was a mess. It really is messy and I don't like having to stand there freezing while I rub this all over my body. It is not very granulated like salt scrubs it is more like an oatmeal scrub, so it doesn't feel like it is working as well, but once you rinse you feel really smooth and moisturized. I would prefer to stick with my salt scrub in the shower, but if you don't mind the application, it seems like a pretty good product.

"Nature's Gentle Dermabrasion" This is a wonderful body scrub. You apply it to dry skin and massage gently in a circular motion. It turns into a creamy wash when you rinse. My skin feels so soft and silky. Your skin is actually left soft from the dry buffing and not the oils which are present in most scrubs. Tip: Apply this while standing in the tub or shower because the dry paste will get on the floor as you move around. Since this is $34 for 7oz. it's definitely a splurge but worth it. This was previously sold in a jar, but now I only see it at Origins in a tube.
