Scrubs have become an integral part of skin care regime. Gone are the days when women would scrub their faces only in the parlours. Nowadays the market is flooded with scrubs of various varieties which we can use at home.

There was a time when you could only get apricot scrub, nowadays you can get a variety of scrubs with a spate of ingredients.

My experience with St.Ives Green Tea Blackhead Clearing Green Tea Scrub:
This scrub is moss green in colour and is of thick consistency. You can easily detect green tea smell when you scrub. It gives you the assurance that the scrub does contain green tea. You need a very little bit of the product as it lathers a thick foam. It has very very fine scrubbing particles. You can never go harsh with this scrub because the particles are not harsh at all. These particles provides mild but effective scrubbing. When you wash you face, you feel your face has got rid of impurities and blackheads. It gives you a fresh and invigorated feel after scrubbing. You can easily use this scrub three times a week without any fear of hurting your skin.
Recommendation: You can pick this scrub if you are suffering from breakout. It will clear blackheads and dead cells. It will calm you skin down. If you like bigger scrubbing particles give this a miss.
