## Description

A delicious face scrub that smells of fuzzy apricots, helps to exfoliate skin and deeply cleans pores for fresher than fresh skin. Our Acne Control Apricot face scrub contains salicylic acid to help prevent new blackheads & blemishes from forming. This blackhead scrub is made with 100% natural exfoliants (like crushed walnut shell) for a gentle, deep cleanse and of course there's apricot extract too which is known to leave feeling soft and smooth. Apricots are our thing. So we know those deliciously fuzzy fruits well. They come from sun-drenched California and North Africa from juicy fruits from different crops, any time of year. Our walnuts are grown in orchards in California, and harvested in the fall where the shells are milled into a fine powder so they have specially rounded edges, which means a softer scrub. Just the way we like it.Natural ingredients:Apricot Fruit extractWalnut shell powderCorn kernel Tell me more! This facial scrub is dermatologist tested, paraben free, non-comedogenic (not tending to cause blocked pores), and oil free. Use St. Ives Acne Control Apricot Scrub for the treatment of acne and to help prevent new acne pimples and acne blemishes from formingHow to use: Dispense scrub onto fingertips and massage onto damp skin. Spread in small circular motions to wake your skin's natural circulation. When you're done, rinse and glow!For best results, use 3-4 times a week.

Review: Game Changer for Clear and Healthy Skin - The St. Ives Acne Control Face Scrub is hands-down one of the most effective and refreshing skincare products I've used. From the very first use, the deep exfoliation is noticeable it sloughs away dead skin cells without being overly harsh, leaving your face feeling incredibly smooth and rejuvenated. What sets this scrub apart is the combination of 100% natural exfoliants and salicylic acid. It doesn’t just unclog pores it actively works to prevent future breakouts. The apricot scent smells nice and is clean and energizing, making it a great addition to both morning and evening routines. Best of all, it's oil-free, so there’s no greasy residue. It’s especially effective for anyone with combination or acne-prone skin looking for a solution that’s both affordable and clinically smart. After just a week of use, skin looks clearer, and more balanced. Highly recommend this scrub as a staple in any skincare routine focused on clarity, glow, and prevention.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Adorable acne free skin!!!
*by K***A on January 31, 2026*

I’ve struggled mostly with hormonal acne, this has been the best thing ever for my skin! I use it two times a week, to not over exfoliate, but to also do a deep cleanse and keep my skin clear and get the dirt from makeup build up off! I love it been using it for maybe ten years! I trust it, stand by it! Affordable skin care! If you have acne prone skin and give it a shot please give me a follow up!! I’d love to know if it works on more severe acne
