I've been using Kiehl's Pineapple Papaya scrub for years and I love it but I want to try something new. I tried Lush's Ocean Salt Scrub but found it to be a little too harsh and it left a film on my skin. I didn't really like it. St. Ives is also a no go for me. The scrubs are too rough and it never did anything for my skin.

Is there any other scrub people swear by?

 
I like Dermalogica's daily microfoliant scrub. It isn't harsh at all. My skin does well with this daily scrub and my skin tends to be sensitive.

 
I use Epidermx which is really good. It's only been about 2 months but my skin tone has become so much better. It's even and bright and I can wear much less makeup. It's not pricey for it does - about 30 bucks from goldportbeauty.com. Because I also use glycolic acid peels, I use it only once a week so it will really last a long time.

 
I use Avene. It is very, very gentle, but I find it does the job pretty well. You can use it 2x a week without no fear, because I do, and my skin is very sensitive.

 
i like derma e microdermabrasion scrub, but i only use it once a week. my skin tends to be alittle sensitive to scrubs.

 
Mine is simple, gentle, cheap and effective -- baking soda.

How do you use baking soda ? Do you mix it with something ? I'm curious.

Does baking soda actually off the dead skin cells and help remove balckheads? The Kieh's scrub leaves my skin soft, supple & helps to remove blackheads but I want to try something new.

 
salope, baking soda is a good scrub. i use it every so often. i use

lancome's exfoliance and its pretty good

I love Origins Never a Dull Moment. Their Modern Friction scrub is good, too.

 
Another rec for the Epidermx. You can use it as a scrub or a microdermabrasion treatment. I use it twice a week.

 
I don't use facial scrub, but I swear by a face brush. I use it every other day, and it gently exfoliates my skin perfectly, and leaves a wonderful glow...

 
I use Angels on Bare skin by Lush. Its a pretty simple product, its ground almonds and lavender and rose oil.

Where is the face brush from? I used to use one but 1) it was rough and hurt 2) was made of boar bristles which disgusted me and smelled horrible. I immediately stopped using it.

 
I use vitamin C facial scrub by the body shop. It makes my face soft and brighten up my skin each time I use it.

 
I use modern friction from Origins, and it smells like mild peppermint and is great for sensitive skin, and really seems to work for my dry, flaky skin.
