This scrub has the perfect "grit" content. I like scrubs to be pretty gritty, so I can really feel it on my skin. This one is perfect. It is almost like St Ives Apricot scrub, but the pieces are smaller. It does a great job of removing any dry skin, exfoliating, releasing ingrown hairs (and preventing them), it is a great shave prep. Your skin is so soft and smooth after using it.
