This is the most delicate face exfoliator that I've used. So delicate that you can use it every day! It has a soft citrus smell, and you only have to use a little bit of product each time. I can't get my husband to stop using it, so I buy him a bottle of his own. My skin is so smooth after using this product. I can always notice a difference in my skin on days I don't use. Definitely an addictive product! A must have in every woman's bathroom.

I use this product 2-3 times a week and have noticed my skin is smoother. It smells wonderfully of citrus also- an all around great product.

This is one of the more unusual scrubs around. Much finer grain, so less likely to do subtle abrasive damage and/or irritate capillaries. Leaves the skin smoother and more refined than any other product of its kind that I’ve tried (and I’ve tried a LOT). reasonably chemical-free. and great price to boot. The only caution: I would NOT use it DAILY! Too intense. 1 - 2x/week at most. and scrub VERY gently.
Great product! Skin was squeaky clean and smooth after using it once! But still really gentle... mmm smells good too.

The scent of this scrub is wonderful, very fresh and light. It is a mild scrub with very small particles so it is not harsh on your skin. I use it my face while it is damp. This was the first product I tried from Astara and I love the whole line.

This is the best daily scrub there is! I've used it for seven days in a row and my skin has never been clearer or smoother.

I've used this product for years and absolutely love it. The grains are extremely tiny and nonirritating, but it leaves my skin smooth as silk. I'm especially happy that Astara changed the packaging: it used to come in a pump-style bottle and the exfoliating grains would get into the pump and make it stick. The flip-top cap solves that problem perfectly. I can't recommend this highly enough!!

I am a skincare junkie and have tried everything. I have dry, sensitive skin and most exfoliators are too harsh. This one is fabulous! It makes my skin super soft, removes all makeup, can use daily, and the best part is that it softens fine lines! Yay for a product that actually works!!

This product is incredible. It sloughs off all the dead skin on your face and makes your skin feel like silk.

I use this facial exfoliant daily - it provides a good overall brightening to the skin, and is not overly harsh as some exfoliants can be. You can actually use this on a daily basis with no ill effects. I also like the fact that its 100% natural. Very pleasant fragrance as well. Highly, highly recommended

Very fine granules for great and gentle exfoliation. Smells good too.

This is the best scrub I have ever used, and I buy a lot of expensive products. I stopped using it and my face broke out and my skin stopped looking fresh. The scrub is wonderful smelling, has very small particles and makes my skin look healthy.

I've been using Astara daily refining scrub for almost two years now and believe me, the price is worth it. If your skin can handle it, do the 30-day in a row routine...your skin will be so smooth and polished, as if you had underwent expensive microdermabrasion treatment. Do the same to your hands...you'll love the results.

This is product is excellent!!!! I've used many facial scrubs, but nothing so far has come close to this one. My pores are barely visible now, and my skin looks so much better. I do have sensitive skin and used the scrub everyday, but I did a gentle massage, for less than a minute, and didn't have any problems with it.

This is the BEST SCRUB I've ever used! The fine granules are surprisingly and effectively abrasive, but without being at all harsh. Each time I use it, I see noticeable results: my skin is smooth and glowing, and feels super-soft. If I just want a gentle scrub, I wet my face first. But if I need more aggressive exfoliation, I use the scrub dry. This is an EXCELLENT PRODUCT and well worth the price!

I just adore this scrub. I discovered it three years ago, and still can't find anything to beat it. The grains are amazingly fine which is especially good for oily skin, as I've noticed harsh exfoliation just makes matters worse. The smell is fresh and the oils (lavender, grapefruit etc.) leave the skin lightly moisturized. I like the lavender in particular, as it aids in healing skin damage.

A continual favorite. I have sensitive, easily irritated skin, yet need to exfoliate. I mix this with a gentle foaming cleanser for a wonderful lathering exfoliating scrub. My skin is soft, fresher-looking, and not red and dry.

I first used this at my last facial and will never use another scrub again. This one is IT! It is pricey, but rest assured, a tiny pinky-nail size amount covers the face so this bottle goes a very long way. Also, I am willing to pay a little more for a natural scrub that works. Astara's Daily Refining Scrub is unlike any scrub you ever had--it has tiny "scrubbers" that feel therapeutic. I have always had tiny blackheads on my nose with larger pores in that area, and after about 7 days, this scrub took care of them and they never came back since. I'm in my mid-30s with combo skin, no skin problems, and this product feels so nice. It's non-drying, non oily. It leaves my skin so perfectly balanced that I often forget to use toner or moisturizer afterward. Treat yourself just once to this product: Your skin deserves it! I'm going to buy a bottle for my sister next Christmas. P.S. Per an earlier review: I actually like Astara's packaging! Simple, classic, elegant.
