Green Pharmacy Face Scrub in Honey & Coffee
Availability: I can't seem to find this anywhere online but was able to find it in my Russian-speaking pharmacy.
Would I buy this again? No.
What is this product? What is it supposed to do?
I'm just going to go ahead and translate the back of the packaging: For deep cleaning of the skin. Delicately removes built up skin cells with the help of apricot seed powder.
Does this contain any special/beneficial ingredients?
Prunus Armeniaca Seed Powder: Has exfoliating properties and is rich in Vitamin E which has antioxidant properties.
Hippophae Rhamnoides Oil: Has hydrating, soothing, and anti-inflammatory properties.
Glycerin: Helps attract moisture to the skin's surface.
Coffee Arabica Seed Extract: Has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
Honey: Has hydrating, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties.
Hydrolyzed Elastin: Has hydrating properties.
Allantoin: Has hydrating, anti-inflammatory, exfoliating, and brightening properties.
What is the texture like?
This has a creamy texture to it that is full of the almond seed powder.
Is this scented?
This has a clean, slightly nutty scent to it.
What has my experience with the product been like?
I'm going to be honest that I purchased this to try because it's rather inexpensive. But that said, I find this scrub disappointing. It doesn't smell like coffee or like honey and I don't like that the main exfoliant is the apricot seed powder, not the coffee. Additionally, while it does leave my skin soft and generally not irritated, it's a bit too abrasive for my liking. I will use this up but I won't be purchasing it again.
Please let me know if you have any comments or questions.
Disclaimer: I bought this myself.
