This has lasted months and months. It makes my skin so soft but it is a little drying because of the salt so I have to make sure to put lotion on afterwards. I soak in the shower, turn it off, put this onto a pumice stone and scrub in small circular motions all over my body then rinse off. It makes my bacne go away also!
UPDATE
Well, hate to say it, but my new Salux Japanese Bath Towel completely blows this out of the water. Before I would have to exfoliate with this and a pumice stone, and THEN use my body wash, but with the salux I can do both in 1 step. I don't need the scrub or pumice stone. I tried the scrub with my nylon gloves on my feet and it didn't even really felt like it was doing anything compared to my salux. I can also effectively get my back too now where before my boyfriend would have to do my back for me with the scrub and pumice once a week while I used a brush on a stick in between scrubbings. I still have like more than half of the original container too.

After I figured out how to better use this product, it worked wonders! I was making the mistake of turning on the shower then applying the scrub, which basically washed it away before i got to really scrub and got water in the container. I can really feel the softness and notice the sheen in my skin post scrub. I've used up my entire tub, but I will run out this weekend to refill it!

Eucalyptus leaves a refreshing cool feeling. Skin feels smooth and vibrant after each use. I use it before shaving and my legs feel fantastic! I also use it before tanning.

HG scrub! This scrub is absolutely a dream to work with. I use rubber kitchen gloves to apply it so my hands don't get raw. I add a little water to the area I am going to be scrubbing then go to town with the scrub. It makes my skin so soft! I love to use it before shaving. Will definitely purchase again and again!

I will admit, this had kind of a funky smell (kind of like a wax crayon) but it wasn't bad enough for me to stop using it. It was just an average exfoliator for me. It got the job done, leaving my skin soft and not greasy ^^

Not crazy about the smell of this but it does work well. Nice size grains with just the right amount of grit, rinses clean leaving skin soft but not greasy. Best part is it doesn't leave your tub slippery!

I love this stuff! I have been looking for a creamy salt scrub since my favorite brand discontinued theirs. This is the one! It doesn't have the prettiest smell, but it does smell like a spa. It does a great job of exfoliating, with a touch of moisture. It doesn't leave the tub coated in grease either. The fragrance of the scrub soon fades and I can easily put on perfume or other scented lotions without the two clashing .

I love this scrub! It's got a eucalyptus minty scent to it which I love and is extremely exfoliating. I think I got this for $25 and it comes in a big tub which makes it well worth the price. I use this all-over my body and can tell a difference right when I get out of the shower. It's great to use esp before shaving as it gives you a much cleaner closer shave. Since it is a salt scrub, be careful of any cuts you might have on your body since it will sting a bit if it comes in contact.

Aaa! I fear they have discontinued this product! I loved this - like other reviewers, I have disliked the texture of other scrubs. But this is creamy. Most important, though, it WORKS -- my skin felt noticeably soft after using it. Some other scrubs I have used had no aftereffect once all the oil and grit wash away. This really improved the texture of the skin. I used to make this a ritual before important dates because I knew my arms and shoulders would feel really soft to the touch. Well, I'm glad I still have some left (as others said, it's expensive but at least you got a big tub) because it's no longer on the Bath & Body Works web site. Under the "True Blue Spa" section, they offer a "Need a Margarita" scrub, but I've no idea if it does the same thing. I might try it when this tub runs out. Glycerine might be the key ingredient...

Great, great stuff. I went to see my dermatologist for stretch marks, she told me to go look for some sea salt scrub.. and I happened to find this amazing sea salt scrub at BBW. It leaves your skin fully exfoliated and super soft.. I rub this on the parts that has stretch marks then apply with palmer's cocoa butter. Hope it will work.. but that's another note.

Go buy this and try it. If it doesn't work for you, BBW accepts returns for products that doesn't work for you... or so the sale lady says!
Try it you'll love it!

You get quite a lot of product for your money, but it wasn't enough to make me like this scrub. The texture was too dry for me. No nice moisturizing oils or anything like that. The scent was ok, but kinda blah. The worst part was that this scrub made me break out like crazy. I got red bumps everywhere I applied it, even my legs. Took it back. Might work for others, but it's a no-go for me.

Best scrub I have ever found! I'm on my second tub and I hope bbw keeps this great scrub forever! I've had a problem with breakouts on my shoulders this summer from a shampoo i was using (I think) and this scrub has healed it up nicely. I get in the shower soak down, turn off water, apply scrub, and wait 5-10 minutes before turning on water and rinsing...like a mini trip to the beach. I believe sea salt has many healing properties. this scrub is expensive but I only use twice a week so it lasts a good long time. Great stuff!!!

My most favorite body scrub! A little pricey, but I absolutely love it! Comes in a giant tub so you get your money's worth. Exfoliates really well and leaves skin perfectly smooth. Just be careful if you have any cuts - it might burn!

OMG! This scrub makes my skin feel AMAZING! Im usually not impresed by scrubs really...Ive tried quite a few and while I dont doubt that they exfoliate, they never make my skin feel much different or if it does, its only like a ten minute temporary smoothness...but WOW, the first time I used this (I tested it on my hands in the store) I was really impressed...but thought "I'm sure this softness wont last more then a few minutes"...4 hours later I still couldnt stop touching my hands LOL...I immediately bought it...Ive only been using it for 2 weeks (2x a week) so I will update on whether it breaks me out or not *crosses fingers* (My chest/back break out easily)...A word of warning - if you have extremely sensitive skin (as in products hurt/burn you easily) you may want to be careful with this...Probably TMI, but there is a part of my chest I made the mistake of putting it on and it burned alittle :( but I just keep it away from that part (you dont want to exfoliate there anyways! :P) and Ive had no other problems..

I LOOOOOVE THIS SCRUB!! I recently bought some during BBW's BOGO Sale, so it ended up being $12 each, which is a fantastic deal. This scrub makes my skin sooo soft and silky. Other scrubs are too oily or aren't gritty enough, but this scrub is the perfect consistency. Plus, because it doesn't have a layer of oil like other scrubs do (namely Origins Salt Scrub), it's not dangerously slippery! In the shower, I add a few drops of water to the scrub (otherwise it may be difficult to rub over your skin), and exfoliate away. It's perfect for prepping my skin for shaving or tanning. I use this about every other week, so one tub lasts for about 6 months. This scrub is the best! You should definitely try it! :)

This scrub pleasantly surprised me. I have tried a scrub from BBW and it made me bleed really bad and it was too abrasive for my skin for some reason. I think it was the citrus oils in it that made my skin peel like that. But this scrub was pretty gentle on my skin. The smell wasn't the greatest but the results I got from this scrub more than enough made up for it. My skin was buttery soft and no oily residue. Huzzah! I wished I bought more since BBW is having a great sale. Oh well there is always next time.

This works great as a shaving prep. I've had fewer nicks and smoother skin since I started using it.

This scrub feels real good but the results are not what I expected. You can't scrub too hard or it will burn, and I didn't have ANY cuts or scratches. It irritates my skin, and causes my feet to peel!!! I'll finish this bottle up and try something else!

Yuck. I love BBW sugar scrubs, but this salt scrub is nasty. Far too rough, and salt stings too much on my sensitive skin. Plus, it is a CREAM scrub instead of the dual layer salt/oil or sugar/oil scrubs. I think the scent is gag-inducing; minty, eucalyptus like to me. I hated this, thankfully I got it for a gift and didn't buy it myself.

Using this product made me realise I don't like salt scrubs. Scrubbing with this makes me feel like I' scrubbing my skin raw and it hurts my hands. Also, be careful not to get this on a cut or scrape- Ouch! I wasn't impressed with the smell either. The scent seems rather medicinal to me, like Ben Gay with baby powder added. The nice thing about this scrub though, is that as you scrub, it sort of warms your skin up, which is really nice in the winter. It also rinses off cleanly and leaves no residue. I was surprised, however, that it didn't make my skin that soft. Just about any other scrub I've used has left my skin feeling softer. I think my skin is just too dry for this product, so I will stick to sugar scrubs.
