hey MTRLB, to narrow it down a bit, is this for use on the face? do you tend more towards natural product lines or is that not an important point for you? is your skin sensitive? |

After reading so many good reviews on this forum, I finally tried Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant - very gentle and cleans well. I only used it once so didn't see much glow it might give, but so far so good!  |

I like Peter Thomas Roth Botanical Buffing Beads. This product emulsifies sebum and is gentle enough to use several times per week without drying the skin. HTH! |

Oh yeah! I forgot one - I also love Sweep by Laboratoire Remede. It's a grainier texture, but still really smooth. My face feels so soft after using it. They don't carry it here, unfortunately, but you can order it from BlissWorld. |

I've been researching Karin Herzog products lately and she has a scrub that looks really nice and is supposed to work well for oily/acne skin. I think I'm gonna try it! |

Dermalogical seems pretty good.

I dont have oily skin but I think this makes nice a scrub for all skin types: Philosophy microdermabrasion wash. Its reasonably priced and lasts a long time.
I have not found a drugstore scrub that I like. |

I've been using Kate Somerville Exfolikate. It helps with my dry cheeks and oily tzone. And it doesn't overdry - I've used stuff that makes my nose flaky but oily. An odd and unfun situation. The exfolikate is a bit pricey, but seems to do the job. |

I have three to recommend:
ZO Skin Exfoliating Polish
Karin Herzog Mild Scrub
Astara Daily Refining Exfoliating Scrub
The last two can be found here at EDS |

I use Biotherm's Clarifying Scrub (75 ml)
but I want to try something that's all natural or organic after I finish with it.
It's a very good scrub though!
No residue left behind and plenty of granules so you only need a tiny drop unlike other scrubs.
Hope that helps! |

I heard people praised Peter Thomas Roth Botanical Buffing Beads, which is available on EDS. I once got a sample of Dr. Brandt Microdermabrasion. It is nice, but the price is 75 bucks of 1.7oz in US and doubled in my country I will not buy this unless I have money to burn. |
