I love the way it smells! & combined with the blue beads and white sand like particles, it is a great way to exfoliate skin.

Excellent scrub!
It smells and feels nice. It tingles, but does not sting my face upon application and it smells like water lilies! It definitely cleans my skin and removes all the makeup. Definite repurchase!

Let me tell you. I. LOVE. This. Product. It's part of my HG facial paradise. The moment it hits my skin... Oh it's wonderful! So deep tingling, cleaning feeling that you know it's working. And it does! I saw results the next day. =D

Pros:
- WORKS.
- Feels FANTASTIC.
- Leaves a cool, comfortable feeling.

Cons:
- I will NEVER buy this from Walgreens again. It practically was halfway gone when I got it. It was the last one left so I felt lucky until I went to WalMart. Tch. Pitiful.

A DEFINITE repurchase. I'd be out of my mind if I didn't. It says use only daily so I'm going by that. One of my HG cleansers. Always brings on the deep cleansing and the treatment for my acne. But that's all I need. Deep cleansing. =)

This product definitely works if you have minor-medium acne. I'm using not a fan of neutrogena products but i loved this one! Trust me when i say this stuff works. I have been trying out millions of acne products but this one has worked the best for me. When your done scrubbing your skin feels fresh and awaken. The smell isn't horrible, beads arent too big, leaves skin feeling refreshed.
But remember to pop your pimples AFTER using this for the bacteria will spread while scrubbing. And i advise you not to wash with hot water but rather warm. and to only use it once a day.
btw i had acne around me nose, cheeks, forhead (mostly tzone), and random ones on my chin.
this product and zapzyt have made my skin almost ance free!

I love this scrub! Unlike other Neutrogena scrubs[the grapefruit scrub] it doesnt dry my face up.I've only used this a couple times though,so I'll update in a couple of days.I dont think this will do much for my acne,but it got my face clean without over-drying which is great

**EDIT**
I've been using this for a couple of days and I like it! I love the scrubbies in it,If I dont use a cleanser with a scrub I feel like my face is dirty.Plus it makes my face feel all cool and tingly afterwards.I'll keep on buying this for sure!

**UPDATE**
My face is breaking out now in tiny blackheads.I now have 5 more tiny whiteheads plus one medium sized one.I dont know if its from this,but Im still not going to use it

Pretty good facial cleanser. Not over drying and doesn't feel filmy after you use it. Takes off all any extra make up that my eye make up remover and facial cloth doesn't wipe away. Has a nice tingle and smells good.

Love, love, love this product!! The 'tingling' sensation is fantastic and really leaves you feeling as if it's done it's job. I use it in conjunction with the invigorating cleanser, cleansing first and then using the scrub.
My skin has never looked so good, and to think I didn't even pay for these products is a bonus! :)

This is a nice scrub for people with normal skin. Makes your face feel very clean.I have acne prone/combination skin, so it made my skin oily later in the day and caused me to break out.=( sucks for me but It's also a very refreshing scrub.

Love this scrub! Its very tingly and takes off any traces of makeup quite easily. My face always feels sqeaky clean without feeling totally stripped of moisture. And the best news? No breakouts, which is quite an accomplishment for a product to agree with my finicky skin. I really like it and its my "go to" scrub along with Avons "Clearskin" scrub. It's a great one too!**UPDATE, sulphates seem to be drying my skin out, dropping a lippie..bummer***

This is one of my favorite facial scrubs. Generally, I’m not a big fan of Neutrogena products; I’ve had negative experiences with the Oil-Free Acne Facial Wash (which actually increased my earlier acne problem) and one of their sunscreens (greasy as anything and caused rashes on my hand). However Neutrogena’s Deep Clean Invigorating Scrub is an effective product that delivers excellent results.


The packaging is quite decent and comes in a 150 ml squeeze tube. The scrub itself is an aqua-blue colored gel-like substance, containing double colored micro beads in shades of dark blue and light blue. The scrub has a slight fragrance which I find quite pleasing. The product claims to be for all skin types (my skin is on the dry side).


After wetting my face, I squeeze out half-a-dime sized amount on my hand and gently massage areas on my face, as the gel lathers into a light blue foam. The ‘Invigorating’ effect starts taking place at this point; there’s a very agreeable tingling sensation with a refreshing cooling effect. The lighter colored micro beads dissolve providing the effect that the scrub is actually performing its intended job on the skin. I massage the scrub for a minute and then leave it on for another minute, while enjoying the cooling sensation. Then I rinse the scrub off with cool water (product washes off quite easily), and after that my skin is left clean, fresh and really ‘invigorated’. The cooling tingling sensation lasts for a minute or so (provided you wash the scrub off with ‘cool’ water).


The product claims to ‘exfoliate, sweep away pre-clogged dead skin cells, and dissolves dirt, oil and makeup’. I feel that after using the scrub, the aforementioned claims do me justice. My skin feels smooth and the refreshed afterwards. I use the product 2 -3 times every week, sometimes while taking a hot shower. I have finished most of my first bottle and am still very satisfied with the product. Recommended 100% to everyone who would like their skin refreshed and invigorated.

I am in LOVE with this stuff! i use it every other day or daily depending how much makeup i have on. it gets everything off and feels great. THe minty invigorating aspect is amazing! i leave it on for about a minute in the shower. im on my 5th tube of this stuff. i leave it in the shower for my bf to use too. its like a chore to get him to exfoliate. but he knows its worth it.

I love this stuff. Like seriously. Its the best cleanser I've ever used. This scrub cleans really well & leaves my face feeling clean, but not tight or extra dry. I tried the regular Deep Clean Scrub because I'm cheap, but I'm willing to pay the few cents more for this stuff 'cause that scrub didn't work for me at all (read my review if you like). Also, this has a really nice smell. Noticeable, but not overbearing. Another [insignificant] reason why I like this scrub.

This also keeps pimples away, but its not for fighting acne. What a plus, 'cause its cheaper than acne products.

Everytime I use this product, it is as if i'm getting a mini microderambrasion. It doesn't leave a sticky film on my face after I wash my face. It gives a fresh clean feeling. There is a slight fragrance to this, but nothing bad. The beads sometimes gets into my nails, eyebrows, or hairline. The price isn't too bad. Otherwise, I love this product and about to move onto my second bottle.

BEST SCRUB EVER. Exfoliating is VERY improtant for your skin, and this cleanses AND exfoliates! i used this for almost a year and my skin was perfect! i (stupidly) switched cleansers and it sucks. when i use this cleanser i have perfect skin.

I was searching for a scrub when I decided to buy Neutrogena's. It was not expensive and I trust this brand although I did not like their orange coloured cleanser (which made my face sooo tight even in summer when I use it 5-7 years ago). This scrub is good for everyday use. It did not dry my skin. But as with all scrubs and exfoliators, pay attention not to use it when you have small acnes on your face, because then the bacteria spreads all over. Wait until the gone is gone or only apply the scrub to the areas that are away from your acne.
I may buy this again, as I know for sure that any scrub will be doing the same.

Really liked this when used in the shower in the morning. Has a slight, refreshing tingle, and leaves my face feeling clean but not dried out or tight. Not sure that its really anything special though.

This scrub comes in a big bottle that lasts for a very long time, as you only need to use a little. I usually wet my face and then apply this, gently massageing. I leave it on for about a minute and then rinse with lukewarm water. It leaves my face very smooth and cleansed, but a bit dried out. I have quite dry skin, so I would guess it's good if you have more normal skin. Unfortunately, it doesn't make my blackheads look smaller at all.. It's an ok scrub, but there is definetly better peelings out there.
