Originally intended for my husband, this has quickly become a new favorite of mine. I am a redhead and the large grains do not affect my sensitive skin (I was expecting huge red blotches afterward).  Instead -I have super soft skin that glows!! I absolutely love this scrub!!! At first, I thought I was smelling almonds but after looking at the ingredients, I see that it is walnut (shell powder) either way, it emits a pleasant aroma. application is simple, "message into face and neck in light circular motion. Rinse well. Use once or twice per week as needed" I used it once, and the next day my skin was softer and had a little glow on it! Thrilled and recommended for all genders!
