This is the best facial exfoliating product I have found. It has a lovely fresh smell and a delightful minty menthol cooling feel. It isn't particularly harsh, so I can use it as often as I need to, and it leaves my skin soft and smooth and feeling great.

Used regularly, it has eliminated my blackheads on nose and chin, and smoothed out the texture of the skin on my cheeks.

I will never be without this if I can help it.

I love exfoliants that you can really feel. This one has fruit acid in it, which I guess is supposed to be a mini chemical peel-type thing as well as waking up your face, and I am a fan. The scrubbing particles are not visible in the product but you can feel them once applied. I love the way this product feels on my skin, makes it feel really clean after I have already used cleanser and does't irritate my skin which is prone to redness and irritation following more abrasive scrubs. The smell is decent and the colour is fun. I have tried scrubs which are far more effective at scrubbing off actual dry patches; this one is more of a 3-or-4 times a week maintainer for your skin's texture and for eliminating blackheads. I use a clay mask weekly and Scrub Your Nose In It whenever I shower and I saw a reduction in my blackheads and acne scars very quickly.

Bit expensive, but very good. I would buy this again but probably just as an exfoliater. Doesn't help with my spots at all, but it has decreased the size of blackheads which I'm glad about!! I brought this for £11 in a 3 for 2 deal at boots, I think £11 is a bit expensive, but the scrub does last long and it smells lovely!

Soap&Glory's Scrub Your Nose In It is a "simple solution for large pores and clogging." this product is infused with a "special fruit acid formula to leave skin looking brighter and more radiant". Scrub Your Nose In It is a multi-tasking product, it can be used as both a scrub and a clay mask. Scrub Your Nose In It contains 125ml and retails for £7.50. I received a tube of Scrub Your Nose In It in a swap with my English friend Rae, who always knows exactly what to send me. Soap&Glory products are readily available in the UK and throughout Europe, but are exclusively sold at Sephora in America, at very inflated prices. I'm unsure if Scrub Your Nose In It is available at Sephora. Soap&Glory products are not tested in America. This product was made in the United Kingdom.
Like all Soap&Glory products, Scrub Your Nose In It has adorable packaging. I love the cheeky style many English beauty products are packaged in and Soap&Glory epitomizes that. Scrub Your Nose In It comes in a pink squeeze tube with a pink flip top cap. The front of the tube features the Soap&Glory logo, the product name, and several claims. The back of the tube offers more claims, a full ingredient list, directions, and company info. Cute but informational and functional packaging. Good job, Soap&Glory.
Scrub Your Nose In It is a light blue, creamy scrub with a slightly gritty texture. This 2-in-1 scrub/mask has a kaolin clay base, which is a great ingredient for absorbing oil and drawing impurities from the skin. Scrub Your Nose In It's exfoliating particles are very small and not overly harsh, it's a nice happy medium between the harsher scrubs I enjoy like Lush Ocean Salt and St. Ives Apricot scrub, and scrubs that are a little too gentle like Clean&Clear's Fruit Infusions. While I think Scrub Your Nose In It is a gentle scrub, I don't feel like it's suitable for sensitive skin. Scrub Your Nose In It has a cooling sensation that quickly transitions into a strong tingle which would almost definitely irritate delicate skin. I don't know if I was spoiled by the lovely scents of other Soap&Glory products, but I hate the way Scrub Your Nose In It smells, it has a medicinal note to it that I don't appreciate.
I love this product as a scrub. It delivers just the right amount of exfoliation. I use Scrub Your Nose In It twice a week as a scrub and it really aids in oil control while sloughing off dead skin. It leaves my skin feeling fresh, not irritated, and a little bit cool, which is a nice little bonus.
I have mixed feelings about using Scrub Your Nose In It as a mask. The results are amazing but the process is a little uncomfortable. Soap&Glory suggests applying a thing layer and leaving it on for just three minutes. I can barely keep this mask on for three minutes, the longer it's on the more tingly it get, almost to the point that it burns. The near-burning feeling is my cue to rinse it off. Removal can be a little difficult, this mask is stubborn, which is strange since it doesn't fully dry in three minutes. As you rinse Scrub Your Nose In It away, it exfoliates the skin as well, getting two two jobs done at once. So this mask is a little uncomfortable and stingy, but the results are so worth it. Scrub Your Nose In It leaves my skin soft, glowy, and more even in tone. This scrub/mask purges the skin initially, but it really seems to calm the skin over time. I use Scrub Your Nose In It as a mask only once a week; more often would be too irritating.
I really like Soap&Glory's Scrub Your Nose In It as both a scrub and mask. It really seems to purify the skin and it exfoliates well. This definitely is not a product suited for sensitive skin, but it will work wonders for you if you have combo to oily acne prone skin. I'm going to keep using this product three times a week, twice to scrub, and once as a mask. This routine really seems to be working for me. If Soap&Glory products are available to you, and this product is appropriate for your skin type, please check it out. Scrub Your Nose In It is a little bit expensive, but the results warrant the price in my opinion. I'll repurchase this product if I have the opportunity.

I love their packaging as ever. The minty fresh feeling you get after is really great wake up call in the mornings and its hard to find a coarse face exfoliator, and I really liked this.

This is a great exfoliator, I always feel so refreshed and like my skin has had a good deep clean after using this without the roughness that you get from so many others. Also really cheap!

i found this scrub/mask when "the greatest scrub of all" was out of stock. at first i was shocked coz i was expecting a scrub and thought this wouldnt work at all but now, 3 weeks after using it almost daily i must say i am impressed! it doesnt shrink my pores but they're not clogged and i dont have blackheads!
a couple of times a week i use it as a mask so i can really recommend this product for people with big pores/ oily t-zone.
i'll defo buy this again and compare it more with "the greatest scrub of all" coz i think this will be replacing my old fav!

This is my favourite pick me up when my skin needs a boost - I apply it on dry skin with circular movements and let it dry for 5 minutes. If feels great on the skin and is a real wake up call with the added mint. When I wash it off, my skin glows and looks radiant all day. I hope they will forever make this product - my friends love it too !

- Smells very refreshing
- Great scrub or a great face mask
- I like the fact that the scrub is very fine and therefore doesn't irritate my skin
- Tones the skin (great for oily/combination type)
- leaves the skin feeling fresh and smooth

I would highly recommend to anyone :)

My only problem about this product is... they don't have it here in Jakarta! Dang, I have to fly to Singapore or KL for the sake of this awesomeness...

I have to tell I only have used this product twice last week but I've experienced a huge difference on my oily skin from the very beginning I tried it! It worked amazingly on my skin! Usually I need two face papers every 2 hours yet I merely used one, 6 hours after I put my makeup on 2 days after I started doing my scrubbing routine with this product for the first time! How could I not love this scrub!?

I love this stuff. I was applying it wrong for the longest time. I thought I could get away with using it in the shower as a mask but it wasn't doing anything for me. I figured I'd try it on damp skin one night and the results are so much better. It's worth a note I only ever use this as a 3-5 minute mask. So now it's part of my 3 step, twice-a-week Soap & Glory skin regime. Part 2 is the deep detox mask and part 3 is the fab pore face mask (Can you tell I like masks?)

I use a little bit more than a pea size and dot the most on my nose then chin then remainder on forehead based on order of congestion. After massaging it in good on those areas then I sweep it out to the rest of the face till I have it covered. The minty tingle feeling is a treat when I'm working it on the face. In mask form I can feel it working straight away and my feels tight when it's on. I sponge rinse it off after 3-5 minutes and my skin looks fantastic!

Things I don't like:
The scent - while I like the tingly feel I'm not too keen on the scent. Also if I bring it up too close to my eyes the fumes get in and they start watering.
Exfoliation feel - at times the product feels too rough on my cheeks.

Overall from using consistently my skin is clear, blemishes are infrequent and my skin looks brighter after looking dull for so long.

I quite like this scrub because it really refreshes the skin. Its a perfect pick me up if your feeling a bit sluggish/tired in the begining of your day! Start your mornings with this scrub 2-3x per week! It might not be suitable to sensitive/sensitised skins beacause it does have a slight tingle/minty feeling to it. It also contains clay which is drawing and detoxifying for the skin, citrus extracts (brightening/toning) for the skin and also a few different types of acids which help boost the exfoliation in the product. I personally like this scrub more than the Dermalogica microfoliant because 1. it smells much nicer (refreshing) 2.its much cheaper and also because my partner loves this too! Great scrub & I recommend over St Ives any day because it also doubles as a mini mask that you can leave on whilst you shave legs etc..HTH

My first product from the S&G series, and I'm blown away already! It's a really affordable product as you only need a pea-size amount each time you use !

The scrub has really fine grains, and just the right minty feeling to make me feel relaxed and instead of stinging my face like some other mint products. After washing off, my face is feeling clean, soft and so smooth !

You only need a pea-size drop if it's only for the t-zone, I usually squeeze a little more than that to scrub other congested areas on my face. After exfoliating my t-zone for around 1 minute, I will extend to the rest of my forehead, hairline, cheeks and chin. Only a quick scrub is sufficient for me as it really does work well to clear out my pores.

Don't expect your pores to be cleared after one scrub, I use it twice a week, and there's significant reduction of blackheads clogged pores on the second week. Love this product !

Scrub Your Nose In It can be used as a mask or facial scrub for the nose/t-zone area. It's minty-cooling and seems to be clay or mud based, though it's a pale mint green (like Queen Helene's Mint Julep Mask, only with the addition of fine scrubbing particles). I haven't used this as a leave on "mask" (the instructions say you can) but only as a scrub to clear out the pores on my nose. It works well for this, though I admit I use a face cloth VERY GENTLY to help with the scrubbing action - I find that finger tips don't work very well in this area. I bought this a while back and found it too harsh to use in winter-time but now that we're in a hot, sticky, humid summer, this is a good product for keeping the pores on my nose clear of sebum and "gunk". Just don't overdo, especially if your skin is sensitive!

I really like the texture of the product. It's thick but not oily or too creamy. When applied to the T zone it functions very much like an exfoliating wash. Just spread out towards the cheeks and forehead and let sit. After about 3 minutes rinse with cold water - if you use really cold water (as cold as you an endure) the effect is even more intense.

I have never used the product more than twice in one week, and when I did use it it was never regular. Sometimes I would apply it Tuesday then Saturday of one week and then I wouldn't use it again for the next month or so. Each time I used it (whether it was isolated or not) it never lets me down.

I'm hoping the ingredients and quality of the product do not change in any way when the new line is released Fall 2011.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this product! It says that it is a scrub/mask, but I only use it as a mask, maybe once a week. I leave it on as directed on the tube and by the time I wash it off, my skin is smooth and uber happy. It feels a little tingly while it sits on my face, but it doesn't sting or burn. I like the tube it comes in since I don't have problems with the product drying out like when masks come in tubs/jars (*coughddfsulfurmask*). I'm just sad that I can't get it from Target anymore, but at least Soap and Glory is coming back in September.

I absolutely love this product!

It leaves my skin looking brighter and healthier, and the minty smell is very refreshing.

It does have quite a cooling, slightly tingly feel, but it's very soothing and I've noticed it tones down some redness in my skin too.

It's also well priced for how much you get, you really don't need a lot per use so it will last ages. I will definitely be repurchasing this when I run out!
