I do like this exfoliator, but it does not seems like a "proper" exfoliator whre you scrub it onto your skin, to me as its mainly a foaming AHA formula with a hint of exfoliating beads which you just about feel. But when im done my skin feels very smooth so it gets the job done.

This is a very nice scrub! Although I usually prefer round granules, I got a free sample of this and fell in love with the texture, the nice, light fragrance, everything! Unlike a lot of scrubs, this one doesn't leave your skin feeling goopy or greasy, just very soft and smooth. I wish it came in a tube instead of a tub, though; I've had a problem with water getting into it when I use it in the shower. It's a great scrub, though!

This stuff is phenomenal and I've been hooked since I first tried it. It's a proper TOUGH exfoliant - there are too many airy-fairy ones that don't do a thing. The smell is divine too. Can't praise it enough.

Oh, I simply love this product. Exfoliates really well without being harsh. I would have prefered if it came in a tube instead of the jar, but oh well... I
Edit; It comes in a tube now=)

Unlike some reviewers here I have no problem with the packaging of this. The tub is perfect for scooping out handfuls of the scrub - I use quite a bit everytime, but you only little a little to get a good result. As with water getting into the tub, I always turn the shower off when I'm applying the scrub, and replace the lid before I turn the water back on.

I think the best thing about this scrub is the AHA, which exfoliates the skin even without any scrubbing. I once applied the scrub all over my body, but only had time to massage my legs. When I rinsed off I found that the skin on my arms and torso were also smoother - because of the AHA. The next best thing is that the scrub doesn't really dry off on the skin unlike a lot of other scrubs. This means you don't need to keep applying or adding water to continue scrubbing. The beads are heavy-duty, but I have not had any problems even with my sensitive skin. Strongly recommended if you haven't used this before.

The smell is nice and refreshing! It softens my skin and make it skily smooth. However I think the scrubbies are a bit too big, so be careful for those who have sensitive skin. The price is cheap and worth to try.

This is a refreshing scrub to use after a hot, humid summer day. It smells great and there are lots of little "scrubbies" in every application. It has AHA in it and the "scrubbies" are called microbeads. It also contains lemon peel extract, apple extract and camellia leaf extract. That explains the fresh, invigorating fragrance.

Wow! This is great stuff!
It's cheap and it makes my skin silky smooth.
I have pretty sensitive skin, but it's not too harsh!

The smell's okay, but I wish the product would come in a tube since it's easy to get lots of water in the product (while showering).

I'm a very picky person, and I wouldn't rub my body with just anything!

Great product!!! Makes me very smooth, also smells very good, but poor packaging. Be careful when travelling (it can seep out, you'd better decant)!
Does the job well and lasts a long time.

I love this scrub!! makes my skin so soft and smooth.

Pricing wise is alright, not too expensive but not very cheap either. But compared to bodyshop scrubs, this one wins hands down.

This is my fav body scrub to date. It's dirt cheap (sometimes they have it at half price), smells nice and makes my skin feel so soft. My husband likes how it makes my skin smell and feel too ;-) My only (small) grouses are that I don't like tubs and the grains are big so musn't exert too much force. Am on my 3rd or 4th tub now ;-)

I loved this stuff but haven't used it in a few years. I was so frustrated about the packaging and was living with a TINY shower I gave it up. Now that I'm looking fot it I don't see it. Hopefully they were smart enough not to discontinue, will try ebay...

The best body exfoliator ive ever used. This is a bright green gel with small granules which foam up as you buff your skin. The scent is divine, a fresh clean burst of citrus and my skin feels like silk after exfoliating. If L'oreal made the scent into a perfume I would rush out and buy it! Fanatastic stuff. This is great at waking you up in the shower in the morning.

I love the smell...apples(but not artifical smelling). I like a scrub that is sugar not salt and without all those heavy oils. Great for the summer. Very clean scent.

Great exfoliating power! (Beware if you have a sensitive skin, however, for the amount/thickness of the beads may feel a little too rough ... if you scrub too harshly). After "exfotonic-ing", I use Neostrata 10% AHA body lotion and my skin can't feel softer!!!! Also, I love the citrus smell. Will repurchase forever!

Fantastic! It's got a blend of fruit acids to exfoliate without drying the skin, and smells really fresh + stimulating.

This is a fabulous scrub. I first bought it a few years ago when it first came out and decided to buy it again recently since I decided I need to be buying scrubs that are cheaper than TBS or Origins scrubs. It also isn't an oily scrub at all like TBS or Origins scrubs. It is a little more pricy for a drugstore brand. It's $11.99 at Eckerd. I can't find this scrub at Target or Wal-Mart anymore. I think when I first purchased it, I purchased it at Target. I hope they aren't going to discontinue it. I use this on my legs daily so I can get a smooth shave. It makes my legs silky smooth and smells great too (very fresh and kinda citrusy).

I find Exfotonic to be a very effective body exfoliant... it's particularly good on softening notoriously rough areas, such as elbows, and heels. Didn't like its smell at first but have grown used to it. I just wish they hadn't changed the original formula to the newer foaming variety. Boo hiss boo!
