The Beauty Post | A go-to Product - St. Ives Apricot Scrub


We all have our go to products, ones that we use on a regular if not daily basis and always find ourselves re purchasing when it has run out. St Ives scrub is just that for me, and has been my ultimate skin saver for the past 7 years.

 I discovered it when I first got into skincare when I was about 13 and I can safely say that it is the only skin care product that I have stuck with. When it comes to moisturizers, cleansers and masks I am constantly on the look out for the perfect one for me and through the years I have had my fair share of trial and errors, but, my go to scrub will always have my back.


The scrub caters for different skin types, the one I use is for oily/blemish prone skin as that suits me best. It claims to deep cleanse your skin leaving it smooth and glowing. And it most definitely does just that. I use the scrub usually twice a week or whenever my skin is breaking out or looking a little dull and it is sure to clear it up whilst giving it a boost.

On top of the product itself being wonderful it is made from completely natural exfoliants and it also has an amazing fresh smell. Think apricots, as the name might suggest. What's not to love? Never will I stray from this little gem, as long as shops keep stocking it I will keep buying it. 

What's your go-to scrub? Have you tried St. Ives before?

I hope you're having a lovely day

  1. I am not quite sure if we can get St. Yves in Germany, but I sure do like the smell of apricots.

  2. I'm right with you. Loveeeee the St. Ives apricot scrub. I haven't tried the blemish fighting one, though! Looks like I'll have to get it when I finish up my current bottle.

  11. My aunt used to buy tons of St. Ives products and that's how I was introduced to their products. I must say they have one of the best scrubs I have ever used (I can't remember the name; it was a green tube I guess). It's been a great while since I last raided my aunt's vanity but this post just reminded me of all that.

  24. I have a friend who uses that and I borrowed it when I visited her. It's a great scrub - love the little grains against your skin. It really feels like you're exfoliating well.

  48. It has rightly been said by fashion gurus that year 2010 is and will continue to be an interesting and Moderate Fumes year for fashion. With the end of the global financial crisis and recession trend, an upheaval in the fashion world was seen in the beginning of the year and this is continuing.

  50. You can often hear it said, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder." This very common expression may sound objective, but in truth it has an underlying connotation that your beauty depends on other people's opinions.   Isn't it better to say, "beauty lies within you. Al-Hijama Coventry
