This is my HG of daily facial scrubs. It is not too gentle and not too harsh. The grains are even and fine (but not too fine) and the GREAT grapefruit/essential oil-based scent is...

This is truly one of the best scrubs I've ever used of the non-foaming variety. I prefer a scrub with a good density of particles, and this reminds me a bit of Remede's but you get more for a lot...

The particles are nice and fine, but this can be pretty abrasive if you rub too hard. I used Remede's Sweep for the longest time - I prefer Astara because it has a more gel-like base and rinses off...

This is the best scrub I have ever used. I have oily/combo skin & I can use this scrub (gently) every day if I want to. It leaves my skin very smooth.

This is another winner by Astara! I love the Daily Refining Scrub! This has a lovely citrusy scent and does a remarkable job at exfoliating my acne prone oily skin. I love that the scrub is very...

I got a sample of this and loved it so much that I sort of started hoarding it to make it last as long as I could. It's really fine-grained and so pleasant to use. I REALLY loved the smell too. ...

When I started using this (1-2x a week) my skin felt great--very smooth, and it helped clear up blackheads. But after a couple of weeks without using it, my skin looked even better! It was making...

I love this scrub. I don't use a scrub everyday and I think this is a little to harsh for me to use everyday anyways. This is great for once or twice a week though. I just mix a tiny bit in with...

I didnt find this scrub to be overly irritating and it got the job done. Not a scrub that I would use more than 1 or 2x a week but fairly gentle. A little pricy however.

I have sensitive skin and am wary of scrubs in general. I mix a bit of this with my cleanser a couple of times a week. It has not caused irritation at all and my skin feels nicely smooth...

I've had this product for a couple of months now. Hands down, this is the best scrub I've ever bought, a bit pricey but well worth it. The granules very much remind me of microdermabrasion...

If your looking for a abrasive scrub then this is it. I tried it for about 2 months only to realize that it was horrible. My skin always looked irrated afterwards and I was really extra-gentle. I...

When I first purchased this years ago, I despised it. My face felt dried out and coarse after using the scrub. It sat in my shower and there I would eye it warily, wondering what mad scientist...

This product is heavy-duty exfoliator. It reliably gets all that dirty buildup off my face. I have a T-zone that accumulates oily residues easily, this is a scrub I newly discovered and can't live...

I received a sample of this scrub from Who's the Fairest? and have fallen in love with it. The name is misleading - I do not think this would be a good product to use daily - but once a week or so...

This is exactly like Remede's Sweep. If you like one, you'll like the other - both use rounded marble to do the job. I don't like it. It feels like sandpaper to me - and I worry about the...

Tried this as a sample and first off, I hate the scent. It smells like lemon, pepper, and baking soda. It just so happens that I *hate* the smell of pepper. Despite the smell, I used up the...

This is a hard-core exfoliator, definitely not for those with really sensitive or problem skin. To me, it's very similar to Remede Sweep, which I also like very much. If you use something like...
