This is my favorite facial scrub BY FAR. I can't get enough of this stuff. It smells so nice, not hard or like some sort of chemical. The beads are a bit small for my liking but not enough to really make a difference. It makes such a difference to my face. It makes it feel extremely moisturized but not oily/greasy and it gives my face this gorgeous dewy glow. It's amazing! My face is just left feeling super soft and smooth without any gross sticky/filmy residue. I highly recommend this and I will definitely purchase this again once I run out.

Ouch!. this is really harsh, its not the exfoliating beads, their nice and finely milled.. its the base, maybe the cherry extract, but this burns the crap out of your skin, first application, had to end up using it as a body scrub.

This scrub has a gel-like base, and consists of tiny scrub beads. It comes in a 150ml large tube which will probably last me a few months. It also has a sweet cherry-like fruity scent that is not overpowering. I bought this at a whim at a local drugstore because I couldn't bear to spend too much on a facial scrub - which is something I will use up quickly and easily.

What a difference this makes to my skin. I've tried many facial scrubs, including the popular St.Ives which dries my skin out sometimes. Freeman apricot and wild cherry facial scrub is gentle enough for my normal-sensitive skin and leaves it clean and fresh without the usual tight,squeaky clean feeling.

There was also no residue left on my face after use. Basically it left my skin glowing, soft and smooth. Great product !

I read some of the reviews that said that it came with a screw on top. Well, they must have fixed it, because mine has a flip cap, and it's in a sqeeze tube, so it's perfect.
As for the actual product, it's okay. If you're used to real scrubs, or if that's what you're looking for, this is not it. It's more like a creamy cleanser with gentle beads. It smells nice, and doesn't leave my skin dry. It doesn't seem like it's doing anything for me, though. I like that it lathers, and isn't just a cream; it makes me think I'm actually cleaning my face. I'll keep trying it, and see if it does anything for my face. If not, it'd be nice as a shower wash. I might buy it again just because it's so cheap.

I LOVE THIS SCRUB,after reading many good reviews about it i went and bought one,and Iam glad i did,it is really good,it leaves your skin clean,soft and smooth.and the most thing i love is that it leaves my skin looking brighter!!i don't know if iam just imagining that,but i think it really exfoliates an removes dead skin so that the skin looks brighter.and to top all that it is VERY CHEAP,so you won't lose anything by trying,instead you may discover a great product for your skin!!

definitely one of the best scrubs out there (and i've tried almost all of them).
i'm surprised there hasn't been more reviews for this wonderful product. i have oily, acne-prone skin that sometimes can be a little sensitive. i've always lived in warm climate areas and when i temporarily moved to michigan my face became a huge mess over the winter times. my nose and face started to peel BADLY but i didn't want to slather on the creams and lotions to cause any break-outs. this scrub SAVED me. it feels so mild but it really does the job. has a great scent and makes your face very soft after (be sure to rinse well). no matter what other exfoliating products i try, i always have a tube of this on my shelf.

the best scrub i have ever used( so far i have tried aveeno brightening scrub, st ives, clean and clear daily scrub, biore scrub(jp import), and dove daily scrub.)
this smells very nice, the flip lid makes it easy to use. Theres not enough scrubbies in the lather to get rid of all the dry skin, esp around my lips, but its more gentle than most daily facial scrubs, so i use it 3 times a week after i cleanse off my makeup.

EDIT: I knocked off two lippies, because it dries out my skin, and makes it flakey.

I got this for my combo sensitive skin, and it smells so YUMMY! The scent is not overpowering, and it really does a great job exfoilating the skin w/o stripping it or leaving a filmy residue. I don't have the skin flakes left on my skin that usually come from other exfoliating type products. I plan on buying this again because I believe this is a cheap bargain product that works well, I love it! :)

I bought this b/c I cannot find the strawberry Deep Impact scrub anywhere now. Its a little disappointing. I will use it up though.

This is one of the best scrubs I have used for my dry sensitive skin!I love it that the scrub pieces are so tiny.Big scrub pieces have never been able to remove all the flaking skin on my face.This scrub does the job.Smells very good too!I love fruity smells and this doesn't smell chemical at all.
The only downside is that it might leave a sticky feelig if you don't rinse well enough or use too much of it.I will use this scrub most of the time in the shower and then it won't be a problem to rinse well.
You can't beat the price!

The smell is SOOOOOO delicious! I'll have to buy their shower gel of the same flavor too! The cleansing power is quite good, neither leaves a film nor makes your face feel taut afterwards. Now as a scrub, those with very oily skin might find the tiny grains in this product too mild and sparse, but if you have sensitive skin or if you're using other products containing exfoliating ingredients in the same time, you might find this facial scrub too harsh or even stinging. The tube has a screw-on cap which is less than ideal. The price is a mere $3.99 for a big tube, quite a bargain.

This is a good scrub. i like it a lot, but it's not anything amazing. it's grains are very fine, which i like, even though sometimes i just want to REALLY SCRUB and SCRUB. the scent is lovely and fruity. if you like bigger grains and feel that does a fine job for u, then u may not be satisfied with this product.

I love this scrub! makes my face really soft and it smells marvellous too. I love the fact that the grains are really tiny so it doesn't irritate my sometimes sensitve skin at all. you don't have to pay much for a rather huge tube it either. the packaging is the only negative thing, the screw off cap can be a bit tricky when you're hands are wet.

Ehhh, the scrubbing particles in this are just too fine for my liking! I don’t feel completely clean and sloughed of dead skin cells after using this. This would be perfect for someone with extremely sensitive skin though. My skin didn’t feel dry or irritated after using this. But the smell just didn't appeal to me at all! I would not re-buy. I prefer St. Ives or Queen Helene’s scrubs over this one

I've got a combi/dry skin and have been using this great product for around 2 years now. I love the fact that it gives a squeaky clean feel after each wash. Though it feels supple, due to my dry area, skin tend to feel slightly tight afterwards. so a lippy off. But that doesn't bother me much as applying moisturizer will solve the problem.

This stuff is fantastic. I've used other pricey exfoliators from lancome and clinique, however I always come back to this. It works just as well, and costs nexts to nothing. You need a barely there drop of this stuff everytime you use it, so a $3.50 tube will last you months and months. It leaves your face feeling bright and soft. The one and only thing I'd change is replacing the screw off top, with a flip top :-)

This product smells so yummy!! It's also not very expensive. After I bought it I took it home to use it, and was pleased when it didn't irritate my skin. The little balls inside it were a little bit painful though since I have very sensitive skin. The next morning, my skin was smoother, but a bit shiny. Oh and it would have been a lot better with a flip top, the product leaks out easily with the current opening. Overall, I don't think I will buy this product again.....

This is a great, cheap, gentle yet effective face scrub. It leaves my skin feeling as smooth as glass. The only things I don't like about it are the lid (screw off cap, would prefer flip-top), the fragrance (but I can deal with it), and that it's slightly drying for my normal skin (the cleansing base includes sodium laureth sulfate). So it's not perfect, but it's the best I've found so far, and you can't beat the price.

I really like this product. It works well in the shower and has a nice fresh, not sickeningly sweet, fruity smell and is quite inexpensive. It is a perfect everyday scrub because it is extremely gentle but still manages to slough off some of those dead skin cells. It's not a grainy, heavy duty scrub though so if that's what you're looking for you won't find it in this product. Nice price, nice results.
