I wouldn't recommend the St Ives Apricot Scrub because while it can make your skin feel really smooth, the grains aren't good for your skin. I'd try the green tea scrub instead

I agree with Mai... I have a friend who has oily skin and he calls the Apricot Scrub the "Eat Your Face" product because of how scratchy it is. He does like the Green Tea Scrub, though, so it may be worth a try.

I would opt for CeraVe or Cetaphil. It's gentle, and if you need to exfoliate, use either Salux facial towels [great on a budget!] or a Clarisonic. =)

You can find reviews on the Salux facial towels on makeupalley here: http://www.kabukivoodoo.com/2011/06/repost-first-lesson-eyeshadow-brushes.html

Make sure you get the softer one!

If you have acne you might want to avoid a scrub and go for enzyme exfoliaton instead. My derm told me that scrubs can be counter effective for acne because they scratch the surface of the skin and can cause bacteria to spread.

I have oily/combination skin and I have the apricot scrub and every once a week for 3 wheels that I used it for, it tore my skin up sooo bad that I would have been better just not exfoliating at all. I haven't tried the green tea one yet.. But it would probably be MUCH better

I would suggest the acne and blackhead scrub! It comes in like the reddish/orange packaging! works really well, as i have the same problem.

I use the one for sensitive skin and it seems to be really gentle and does a good job exfoliating my skin.
