Himalaya Apricot Face Scrub (Apricot + Wheatgerm)| Review

After going through Anjali’s feedback on the Himalaya Tan Removal Orange Face Scrub, I felt inspired to share my own thoughts on the Himalaya Apricot Face Scrub (Apricot + Wheatgerm). Although I’m not currently using it, this scrub held a special place in my skincare routine during my time in Jaipur. With numerous scrubs available, I opted for the Himalaya Herbals brand due to my positive experiences with their other products. Now, with a job that allows for more financial exploration, I find myself experimenting with various skincare options. Today, I’ll be reviewing the Himalaya Herbals Gentle Exfoliating Apricot Scrub to provide insight into my experience with it. Keep reading to discover how it performed for me 🙂

About the product: Himalaya’s Gentle Exfoliating Apricot Scrub exfoliates dead skin cells and blackheads and unclogs pores. It also deep cleanses facial skin to keep skin soft and glowing.

Ingredients: Apricot Seed Powder, Crab Apple, Wheat Germ Oil

• Apricot Seed Powder: Known for its abrasive action, Apricot Seed Powder removes dead skin cells and blackheads, which brings out your skin’s natural glow.
• Crab Apple: Crab Apple has soothing and excellent skin conditioning properties.
• Wheat Germ Oil: Due to its high concentration of Vitamin E, and natural antioxidants, Wheat Germ Oil is ideal for most skin types. It is the perfect ingredient for our face scrub as it nourishes the skin and boosts the skin’s quality.

Price: ₹ 85

Quantity: 50 gm

Shelf life: 36 months

How to use it: Apply Gentle Exfoliating Apricot Scrub in a circular motion on the face and neck. Wipe off with a moist cotton pad. Rinse with water and pat dry. Use at least once a week for a glowing, healthy complexion.

Suitable for dry to normal skin.

Packaging: This face scrub comes in a white colored tube, with all the information printed on it. It has the trademark Himalaya green colored flip-top cap. On opening the flip top cap you will see a medium sized nozzle to dispense the product. The tube contains 50 grams of the product, which offers a decent amount for multiple uses. The packaging is sturdy and travel friendly

My opinion about the product: This scrub boasts a creamy consistency featuring tiny, brown exfoliating particles. While these particles effectively exfoliate the skin, it’s crucial to exercise caution, especially if you have sensitive skin. I incorporate this scrub into my routine twice a week. Following application, my skin feels notably soft and smooth. You can opt to mix the paste with a small amount of water to ensure even distribution across your face. Furthermore, a pea-sized amount is sufficient for the entire face, making the product long-lasting.

The scrub effectively eliminates dirt, oil, whiteheads, and blackheads, offering a solution for pigmentation and tan marks. It contributes to an overall improvement in skin texture and addresses black spots. It’s important to note that visible results require regular use rather than providing instant effects.

What I liked about the product:

1. Refreshing fragrance.
2. Impressive ingredient list.
3. Works on tan.
4. Removes pigmentation.
5. Improves skin texture.
6. Pea sized amount required.

What I do not liked about the product:

1. Need to be patient in delivering results.
