    Okay so the reason this has such bad reviews is it’s not a scrub I repeat it is not a scrub. There is not nearly any scrub in it and what is in it are kinda chunky not hard just big. But I use this...

    I've been using this product for years. It's probably one of the only skincare products I've repurchased several times. My skin is very dry and sensitive, and this is the best exfoliant I've come...

    Why even include the almonds of there aren't enough to be abrasive? I guess the oils are beneficial. Only good for regular/combo skin. Good overall and smells like heaven, nothing super special.

    Seriously run from this jar! Big chunks of almond in a thick paste. Not pleasant.

    I'm not a fan. It is this weird cream which does nothing in terms of "scrubbing" (and I am to assume they mean to use this as an exfoliator?) but yet has these weird large intermittent pieces. ...

    I've been getting into using foundation daily, but my skin completely disagreed with it and I noticed that I was going to breakout if I didn't stop. In order to combat the oncoming breakout, I...

    I have rosacea and I adore MB products. They have made my skin so smooth and evened out my skintone so much that I don't even have to wear foundation or concealer. However, this is a disaster...

    I received a sample of this with an order from Mario Badescu. It wasn't anything special. It didn't feel like it did anything to my skin scrub wise. It kind of felt like I was just rubbing lotion...

    This is a good atypical scrub for people with sensitive, dry or combination skin. Normally, I would purchase a more abrasive scrub as I have oily acne-prone skin. However, I had a TCA peel about 3...

    I personally wouldn't call this a scrub because they say it's non abrasive, so you're not really scrubing your face. It just feels like your rubbing a milky paste into your skin. The almond pieces...

    I don't know why this has so many bad reviews. I absolutely LOVE this product. I love the smell. It is non abrasive. Yes it has rather large pieces of almond in it, but the real exfoliation comes...

    The texture was thick and gooey and it smelled foul. The exfoliants in this scrub was too large and I doubt it removed any dead skin. It goes on thick and the texture feels like putty.
