I miss this stuff. I've run out of my large bottle and the smaller 2oz bottles. I wish they'd continue making it. Best 2in1 body scrub 'n' cleanser i've ever bought.

LEMON PLEDGE!!! Thats it! I've been wracking my brain, sniffin' thru my shower trying to figure out what the heck that smell was. Thank God someone figured it out. :)

What a wonderful scrub. Not harsh but very effective. I epilate the hair on my legs (similar to waxing) and I need a good exfoliator to aid in the prevention of ingrown hairs. This was not scratchy and it even foams up like a cleanser. I really like it. I did read one review that said it smelled like lemon pledge and I thought "Nah, that couldn't be true." Well, guess what? It's true. UPDATE: It works okay, but I'm wore out on the funky lemon scent. I won't be buying this again.

The consistency of the product is nice & fun- But, I CANNOT take the scent of this. The one I got smelled just like Lemon Pledge:( It was returned.

This is a great combination of foaming shower gel and a gentle scrub for the body. The smell is light and citrusy and it leaves your skin soft, clean and exfoliated but not red like some scrubs can.

This is a great gentle daily scrub. This smells heavenly- has soft citrus tones. The scrubbing particles aren't nearly as jagged as their Gingerbread Scrub or their Amazing Grace Scrub. I consider this almost an exfoliating shower gel. So great to use everyday. I love, love, love this!

To me this smell heavenly. I didn't expect to like the scent but suprisingly this to me is a scent that just lifting/lighten up your spirit that is just wonderful to have in the shower. It scrubs well and not at all harsh.

This is 16oz(about 475ml) for $60AUD in sydney. All the philosophy products are really expensive here :(


It's cream colored, with a hint of pale green/blue. Granules within a smooth paste.

I don't like the bottle, but it seems the best way to store it anyhow, just that the bottom bit is hard to get out.

The full size lasted me almost 6 months, using it 3~4 times a week, if it was purchased in US, i'm sure it's quite economical.

It scrubs just as nicely as exfotonic and isn't as harsh, and leaves the skin supply and moisturised still, while it helped to get rid of my acne on the back!

you get used to the smell after a few washes, it's not intolerable, in fact i grew to like it, a bit of a fresh crisp lemongrassy scent minus the citrus tone (if u understand what i mean...).

Yummy yummy yummy yummy! It smells like pretty clouds on a sunny day...heaven is right. The scent is nice, the scrubbing action is nice, rinses clean. My complaint is that I was lured to it because it is described as a foaming exfoliant--I found that idea wonderful. It doesn't really foam though. Too bad. Still love the scent. A friend, who hates most scent imaginable, used it @ my place and loved it too.

I love this scrub! It has the best of all worlds; great color, a pretty aqua, a nice fresh light smell (sort of citrus-y) nice consistency for a scrub and lathers up nicely. As with my other Philosophy bath products, I must use another container as the original 16 oz bottle is sort of unwieldy in the shower.

As far as exfoliation, this product is better than any I've thus far tried. The granuals are the perfect size for gentle exfoliation that get the job done, but aren't too rough. However, I CANNOT get past the smell- I feel like I'm lathering on kitchen cleaner every time I use this. If only they'd alter the scent, I'd be sold....

This stuff is so good, it's sinful. The smell is clean and fabulous---sort of like SweetTarts (the candy), only it's much better than that. I actually feel happier when I smell it (all psychological and not scientific, I'm sure, but still, it's very comforting!). Tough enough to scrub the dead skin off, but soft enough that I can apply it with my bare hands and not have them hurt. My skin feels clean but still moist (not greasy!) when I use this. Very possibly my #1 favorite philosophy product ever.

I've found that my SO likes to use my Philosophy products and purchased this for him as a gift. The scent is clean, and it's a great manual exfoliator - perfect to use before self tanning! It rinses off cleanly and the smell lingers a bit longer than other shower gels and scrubs I've used.

Love this scrub! It smells nice & citrusy & I like the way it kind of foams up too. The price is right for the amount of product. My only complaint is the packaging, which is not the most convenient (like most Philosophy products IMO).

A great shower scrub! I use this every day, and a little goes a very long way. It smells wonderful, and it makes my skin very soft.

This is one of the best exfoliators
/ sloughing creams I've found yet! Compared to other brands, the price is decent. It smells good, sloughs off dead & dry skin w/out being harsh and the salts dissolve in the water. Recommend giving it a try!
