St Ives Gentle Smoothing Oatmeal Scrub & Mask 170G

Works well on my very sensitive skin leaving it lovely and smooth. Nice perfume too.

This is now my new holy grail. Let me start with the smell. It smells just like a holiday, I could sit and sniff it all day, it’s such a comforting smell, and not too overpowering or perfumed. The texture of the product is a cream based formula so it does not foam up on your face. I personally find it quite uncomfortable when a wash foams up and I find it goes in your eyes and nose whether you want it to or not. This definitely doesn’t do that. It is thick and grainy, which is fabulous for exfoliation. My number one favourite about this though is the face that it is a 2-in-1 product, it’s a face wash plus a mask. So when I have a shower, I wet my face, give it a good massage with this product and then leave it on my skin while I was my hair and body. I then rinse it off at the end, so it’s sometimes on for a good 20 minutes. I personally don’t find that it leaves my skin feeling tight either, it’s very comfortable and keeps the dry skin at bay. The bottle is a great size and my last bottle last me months. This can’t be beaten for a high street brand and the price point.

I'm a 27-year-old guy with dry skin that is prone to minor breakouts. At first I was wary, and normally I would wait a few months before I review, but I've had this product for around 2 weeks and it is definitely making a difference to my skin. My dry skin is almost gone, there's no irritation, it helps prevent blackheads and overall it makes my skin feel like all the grime and dead skin has been stripped off. You apply a layer and leave for 5-7 minutes and it works it magic, but it is quite difficult to wash off and if not done correctly it will leave a white crusty residue. I use this product every 2 days and my skin is very soft and evenly toned. I do, however, have a small issue with the smell. It smells of a thick, chemically sweet soap beneath a fine layer of porridge. I can't stand smelly products, especially chemical/artificial smells. This definitely isn't much of a natural product.

Very soothing facewash

Very nice, soft and natural. Speedy delivery.

Was excited to use this.. but disappointed. I usually use the apricot st Ives and its ace. They always do gentle, moderate or deep, I like the deep as the walnut bits are bigger therefore feels like it's really getting off the dead skin. This oatmeal one is gentle, and don't really feel like it's doing much, may be good for more sensitive skins. It's very soapy when rinsing off, I had to do it 3 times! Would be best using in the shower. It's a nice product and I will use to finish it, but I wouldn't buy again simply because I like more of a "scrub" Skin felt fresh after and looked bright I have to say, so I feel it has done something, great for sensitive skins, decent size will last ages as I only use once a week. Great product, does the job, but I'll stick the apricot st Ives.

Excellent product at a great price

The best face scrub I’ve ever used, so glad I found it on Amazon!

J'ai une peau assez fragile et la ce gommage est top je l'utilise sur le visage et corp ça me fait une peau toute douce he recommande

This is really good. It will make your skin smooth and also helps to remove blackheads and reduce pimples as well.

j'utilise ce produit pour le visage, il sent bon et est frais, nettoie bien la peau et la rend toute douce

Will buy again and again

Mi ha purtroppo causato reazione allergica, e dire che lo avevo preso proprio perché ho la pelle molto delicata e in teoria gli scrub all'avena dovrebbero essere i meno aggressivi.
