I know this has a cult following and maybe it really does work for some people but I just felt this was too harsh on my skin. I wouldn't recommend this on sensitive (face) skin.

I give this a 2-2.5, I find the scent too strong and the exfoliant in it is too spread out/sparse for my taste and the pieces are too big. I prefer a sugar scrub to this. Just didn't find I got as...

Great packaging, very inexpensive but I probably won't be re-ordering. I don't like the scent that much. It's a chemical smelling fruity smell.
