      Better Than Philosophy's Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash

      by productgirl (3 reviews)
      This product is so much better than Philosophy's Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash. It has cleaner ingredients that are better for your skin and the exfoliating particles are not harsh on my skin, it's gentle exfoliating when Philosophy's product sometimes is a bit more abrasive.

It has cleaner ingredients that are better for your skin and the exfoliating particles are not harsh on my skin, it's gentle exfoliating when Philosophy's product sometimes is a bit more abrasive. The scent is very clean and refreshing too, it smells like grapefruit so it's great to use in the morning... a little burst of citrus always helps me wake up. This scrub also rinses off clean so you don't need to use something else to really have your skin feel clean. February 23, 2008, 4:48 pm

      A Great Daily Scrub

      by Ginger (2 reviews)
      This really is a daily scrub. The little bits of sand are gentle but do an excellent job of exfoliating. It exfoliates more than the Clinique Seven Day Scrub and Origins Swept Away.

October 17, 2007, 6:00 pm This really is a daily scrub. The little bits of sand are gentle but do an excellent job of exfoliating. It exfoliates more than the Clinique Seven Day Scrub and Origins Swept Away. The previous two have little round beads, where the Astara has diamotecous earth pieces. The grapefruit and orange essence make it refreshing and invigorating. This does a medium exfoliation that makes your skin fresh and new. For an extreme exfoliator, Philosophy's Microdelivery Peel is the most exfoliating product I've tried. October 17, 2007, 6:00 pm

December 5, 2007, 11:41 am This product is fantastic. The sand particles from the bottom of the ocean are naturally rounded so you never have to worry about "scratches". You can practically feel your skin smoothing out as you use it. The natural scents included make you feel as though your having a mini spa treatment at home. This company prides itself on using the best natural ingredients that money can buy and nourishing the body. Good overall investment. December 5, 2007, 11:41 am

      Perfect scrub for sensitive skin

      by Stripes (3 reviews)
      I have very sensitive skin that is prone to hyperpigmentation and this scrub works wonders for me. The tiny beads aren't irritating and I noticed a dramatic improvement in my skin texture within the first few days. Foundation glided on much faster and my black heads have improved.

I think it's economical too, a bottle lasts me over a month. I also like that the ingredients are natural, and the packaging is recycleable. August 5, 2008, 5:46 am

      Good for daily use

      by Ernestine14 (137 reviews)
      This works well for daily use. A little pricy, but it is worth the cost. May 2, 2008, 5:54 pm

      Pulling effect on the skin

      by absolute (3 reviews)
      It is a good product, but since I have always used milder scrubs with more botanical oils in, this one makes my skin feel tenser and has a mild pulling effect. December 7, 2007, 6:47 am
