I received this scrub as one of my free forum surprise gifts from EDS; [thank you EDS, what a great way to try new products!] - Didn't get around to using it until I ran out of EpidermxII [currently in the mail].
This scrub can be used on body, face, neck, chest and hands. If I weren't so enamored with EpiII this could very well become a replacement. The texture is creamy with a lot of little scrubby beads; they're round so they won't tear your skin and my face was left very clean, bright and glowy. It doesn't smell nearly as nice as EpiII, but at least it's a neutral aroma without being overly floral or perfumy. Even better, no annoying film is left on my face and no breakouts or clogged pores.
The only thing I question about this line is the claim that polyphenols are the most powerful antioxidant. I've also heard the same claims about alpha lipoic acid, pomegranates, goji berries and Vitamin C esters; it's difficult to know what to believe given the lack of independent studies.
I'll keep this onhand whenever I run out of EpiII. Sold here on EDS, here's the link...

Thanks for the review, Athena! I've been wondering about this one. How long do you think this might last? It looks quite a bit larger than EpiII except with EpiII I find you need so little when using it...  |

Hi Havana, I did find that I had to use more than EpiII to cover my face, neck and chest so even though the tube contains more product, I suspect I'd use it nearly as quickly.
It's great to have a backup just in case I ever let myself run out of EpiII! |
