I tried this a few months back after hearing some positive reviews of it here. I received the Cellcosmet sampler pack as a gift from the lovely EDS ladies with an order last year sometime and it's taken me this long to make my way through some of it
I was pretty sure that I was going to like this - of all the Cellcosmet products that I have tried so far the only one I would not buy a full size of is the UltraVital which I feel is too rich for my skin. So, it wasn't a surprise really when I found out on first use that I did like this The little sample pot lasted for a good five uses from memory so I can confidently say that a little goes a long way.
This is a cream based scrub-type exfoliant - it's white, looks like a cream, but has really *tiny* little scrubby granules in it. It leaves the skin very smooth and bright/fresh looking, and has the Cellcosmet scent that I love so much As far as I am concerned, it is perfect for my skin. However, the scrubby granules, while feeling uniform in size (i.e. all equally tiny ), do feel sharp. I would not call this a good scrub for all skin types (even though Cellcosmet says that it is for all skin types) - I would actually advise people with sensitive skin to be *very* gentle when using this if they have it or to avoid it alltogether.
In general this scrub does not "wow" me as much as the other Cellcosmet products that I have (they "wow"ed me a lot! ), although I very much prefer this to scrubs that have bigger scrubby bits (these are really super tiny!). I probably will not be purchasing a full size because I noticed that it comes in a jar. If it came in a tube then I would add this to my Cellcosmet collection |

I thought the same thing. It is very nice. I love the scent and texture, but for the price I can find something else. |

If you find something close to this then please let me know. I really did love the texture of it. The closest thing that I have tried to this in the past was one of the Ella Bache scrubs (can't remember the name) but it was more harsh.... |

I felt the cellcosmet was a little too aggressive for me...I guess I prefer something more gentle. |
