Aapri Apricot Scrub

Advantages: bough away the rough
Disadvantages: See title!

...a while is the wonderful Aapri Apricot Scrub, and I don’t just limit it to my face I’ll have you know! The thing I like about this rough but kind cream is that it’s 100% soap free, which means none of that tight feel you sometimes get with ordinary soaps and scrubs. The creamy liquid that has minute pieces of apricot kernel in it smoothes the roughest of skins and is kind if you have sensitive skin as well. It buffs away rough ...
...on your face gives that ‘windswept’ fresh look. As I said before I don’t just use it on my face, because as it happens I get dry skin in other places as well. When scrubbed into the elbows, which if yours are anything like mine get rough from leaning on the computer chair arm, it leaves them a lot smoother and if used regularly almost eliminates the roughness that most elbows have. I also use it on my knees and at the back of my ... Read review

Advantages: nice fragrance, don't need a lot per wash, refreshing, cleansing
Disadvantages: not always widely available

I first started using Aapri scrub when it was launched quite a few years ago as my skin tends to be very dry all year round. You don't need to use a lot of the scrub for it to be effective. It has a very nice fragrance, although it doesn't irritate your skin as I also have very sensitive skin. It leaves your skin feeling refreshed and doesn't make it feel tight as some scrubs can do after you've washed it off and dried your face. I've had to use ... Read review

Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: To abrasive for me

Unfortunately i bought this thinking it was a cheap enough product to throw away if i didnt get on with it, and unfortunatly i didnt get on with it so in the bin it went. It cost me £3.50 from Boots, and i couldnt wait to get it home. I was dissapointed when i opened the tube, it smelled somewhat chemically, but that didnt put me off too much. Unfortunately it was far too abrasive for my body, and there was no way i would have used it anwhere near ...
...that was because i scrubbed too hard i really dont know. I found the bits of kernal floating around in the bath annoying and after emptying the bath, it took quite a while to get the bath up to scratch again, as there was bits everywhere and there was an oily scum ring round the bath. A lot of my friends really rate this product, but its done nothing for me except giving me a back ache scrubbing the bath later and red skin. ... Read review

Advantages: Does an excellent job of removing dead skin cells; inexpensive; has no odor; if used correctly, keeps skin glowing; fun to share with friends.
Disadvantages: Very difficult to find this product on the market - last time I had to order from Australia!

This is the finest facial scrub I have found. I have tried samples of Bath and Body Works, Estee Lauder, Clinque, Benefits, etc. because it is so difficult to find Aapri. I really like the way that I can either lightly scrub (by adding more water to the scrub or by applying less pressure) or scrub more heavily. I do not use this more frequently than once a week and that is what I would recommend. I have been using this product since it was "new" ... Read review
