I've used a lot of exfoliators for my face and have had problems since I have sensitive skin but I find that St. Ives apricot scrub works great! Though I find most exfoliates dry my face out I find this does less so and combined with a good face moisturizer I can get a good exfoliation and keep my skin from feeling irritated. Like and exfoliater, don't use this daily as it will dry your skin out - but use once or twice a week will do wonders for your face. I also like that it is made from natural ingredients and is fairly affordable compared with less effective and more irritating alternatives....
