Zia Men's ActiClean Face Scrub, 5 Ounces

This is a great scrub if you're looking for a hearty, proper scrub. This is quite gritty compared to many other "scrubs". However, there are some things you may want to consider before purchasing:-The smellThis is the most noticeable potential issue. This product is not fragranced like other facial care products you may be familiar with. This means that it smells exactly like its ingredients smell. The smell isn't bad per say, but it certainly isn't pleasant or desirable. Let me be clear, this does not stink, but there is no additive fragrance at all and initially this may come as surprising. This is certainly not an old spice product.-TextureFor me this is actually desirable, as many scrubs fail to do what they say... scrub. This product is gritty, very much so. The texture is quite similar to lava soap, or any soap you would use to remove grease/ oils (probably why it's good at cleaning faces). Buy no means does this irritate your skin, but it really gets in there and cleans. Most importantly, this helps if you have sensitive skins and often get razor burn. Overall, desirable for me, maybe not for some.-Lack of menthol or any warming featureI really like a scrub that scrubs, but also warms my face in a minty menthol kind of way. This does not do this. However, it still leaves my face feeling clean.Final thoughts:Great scrub that actually scrubs, though it does leave some things to be desired. I wish it smelled nicer (but I guess that would retract from the all-natural appeal) and left my face feeling minty fresh in addition to clean. I recommend you try this, I use this one quite a lot. And if the smell bothers you, simply use a nice smelling foaming face wash after you scrub with this one.

Maybe the worst abrasive face wash I've ever used. Uses ground up corn cobs as the abrasive, instead of pumice or ground walnut shell or one of the others in the market. Smells like solvent, not like some pleasant plant, or even like pleasant clean. Smells like paint thinner and burnt corn. Everything about the experience of using it is unpleasant.That said, it does clean your face, it doesn't totally dry you out. The corn abrasive isn't very fine, so I don't think it scrubs as well as many of the others (even something cheap like St. Ives Apricot).

I like the face wash itself. My complaint is that the first time I used it the top of the tube split open. I think the opening for the facewash to come out is too small.

This is supposed to be odorless, but it has kind of a "meh" odor. The odor doesn't linger on your face after you wash it off, though, so that's good.

GREAT ITEM FOR ITS PRICE. EVERYTIME I USE IT, LEAVES MY FACE SMOOTH AND HELPS DIMINISH ACNE. THE ROUGH PARTICLES ON THE SCRUB HELP EXFOLIATE DEAD CELLS AND DIRT. DINT HAVE ANY ALLERGIES OR PROBLEMS SO FAR, BEEN USING IT FOR 2 MONTHS. A LITTLE GOES A LONG WAY WITH THIS PRODUCT.

Doesn't foam up as I wanted it to which makes the experience a "downer" every time I use it.

Good facial scrub that lathers fairly well. I also like the texture of the grains.

The scrub is so thick, that when initially squeezing the tube the top of the bottle exploded and half of the contents ended up on my shower floor. I am 3 days outside of return window even thought I only started using it now. Buy at your own risk.
