This exfoliating scrub smells very nice. It leaves the skin feeling soft and smooth and you don't need to apply a lot. It has more grit than other exfoliating scrubs and like many of them, it dries out the skin a little bit but I think that's good because it gets rid of acne-producing oils and tightens your skin a bit closing the pores. It lathers a little bit making it easier to spread around the face, so you don't need a lot to cover your whole face.
