Im from the UK so i knew about this brand already as its a pretty standard brand over there, although much cheaper over there too!! I always liked the way the brand was gentle and this was no exception, nice a light, the exfoliating bits were not too scratchy but felt like you were getting something out of it. Not too bad and i think if i have a coupon i may buy it.

I was not a huge fan of the scent but it was perfectly tolerable. Was it wonderful? No. Still, that's not that big a deal to me. The scrubbiness of the exfoliants was a good level for me, but I wish there were more of them packed in. They felt kind of few and far between and I still have some dry patches on my cheeks, even after using the scrub this morning.

Im in between with this item. I liked how there was no overpowering scent and that my skin felt clean, but I felt like the scrubbing granuals were a bit rough on my skin. However, I have semi-sensitive skin and did not really break out and the large granuals were a bit rough, but did not clog my pores as other scrubs do due to their tiny scrubbing beads. If you like scrubs this product is great for you, if you enjoy tiny scrubbing beads, this product is not for you. :)

I like that there was no scent and it did not burn my skin but the scrubbing granules need to be finer.

The scrub may work well for others but in my case it broke my skin out terribly. I did not like the "odor" it gave off either even though it was supposed to be scent free. I may try one or two of their other products, especially the facial cleansing wipes just to see if I have better luck with another product. We go camping a lot and I like to use facial wipes at night right before going to sleep.

I liked this product, but I will agree with some other reviewers that I prefer a small sandy type scrub, rather than the larger scrubbing particles, they don't feel like they are really adding anything to clean my face. However no irritation was occured while using this product. Also the retail price of this product is generally out of my price range. Thanks for letting me try it!!!

I like the fine grains to scrub the skin but I felt it dried my skin too much and would like an option that is more moisturizing. I do want to try a moisturizer to see how that works with my skin. I would recommend the scrub to someone that has skin that is not as dry as mine.

I tried the moisturizing facial wash only to find out that I need to use something that has salicylic acid in it. My face was free of all blemishes and red blotches until I used Simple moisturizing facial wash. It just took two days and I had the start of blemishes returning, so for me I need a facial wash with more than the "vitamin goodness" that is in Simple. However I appreciated the chance to try the product and want to add that I use the Simple hydrating light moisturizer and like it. I have not had any problems using that product.

The Simple Smoothing Facial Scrub is okay. I would rather a light clean scent than it being unscented. The granules are somewhat big compared to other brands that I have used. I would not use this daily but will use it 2-3 times per week to exfoliate. It made my face feel clean and soft.

The product sample was a full size which was not expected. I found this refreshing especially since i have relocated to the warmer climate of Southern Texas. I feel like cleansing more often. I will be looking at the other products

I liked the was it was applied and rinced off very well but kind of left my skin dry.

I liked that this product didn't irritate my skin, however I have noticed a few whiteheads since using this product, as I feel it's a tad on the oily side. Strangely, it also left my skin with some dry patches after showering. Not completely sold on this product.

I liked the texture and exfoliating qualities of the scrub. It left my skin feeling smooth and not too dried out. My only complaint is that it has mineral oil and parabens that are often bad for skin.

Not a bad scrub but I can't stand the smell. Smells like plastic. Other than the smell though i loved it.

I have used a lot of scrubs, so this could just be preference, but I thought the granules were a bit abrasive. I tend to like micro granules or a finer scrub and this one reminded me of the apricot scrubs that have the larger granules with a sharper edge. I have heard from people who have done my facials that, while these harsher scrubs seem to get the job done and leave you feeling very clean, they cause tiny tears in your skin that aren't very good for the the long run. The other thing I didn't like was the smell. It doesn't smell natural to me, but instead almost synthetic or chemical, although it is not all that overpowering that I just can't use it. I received a bottle to review so it is the kind of product that I used for a while to get a feel for it, but it is now my "back up" scrub or face wash in case I run out or my husband runs out of his apricot scrub that he likes. So all in all, I would say that it is okay, but not great.
