St. Ives Apricot Scrub | Invigorating
Available at most drugstores, under HK $50
To start the week, I'd like to recommend this product. To date, this is the best scrub that I've tried, and it works magic. Note: Buy the Invigorating, no matter what your skin condition. The gentle/olive/blemish control ones are just 'variations' to this classic one. This is like a heavy duty skincare product that you need every week. It helps you to get rid of stubborn dirt and gives you a smooth instant finish and softer skin. I love how this product contains actual coarse scrub, so that you feel that you are exfoliating the skin and rubbing the dirt away to fresher looking skin.
Instructions: To be used optimally twice a week, or at least once a week. Take a nut sized amount, and dab a little water onto your face. Apply using your fingers, and scrub in a circular motion till you cover your face like a face mask avoiding eyes and lip area. Leave for 5 minutes and rinse off. You'll instantly feel like a layer of dirt has been removed, and it'll give you a fresh sensation. You can also use it on other body parts to make them smoother, such as knees, elbows or give yourself a scrub during a pedicure. It's definitely multi-purpose. Not recommended for daily use though, as it is heavy duty material and may cause rupture to your skin if used excessively.
Overall, love it! This is a classic item one should have on their shower rack. Suitable for men too!
