Is it safe to use Ives Apricot Scrub? The beads of the product is it harmful to the pimples?
Rap Go asked:
My friend told me that this product is very effective when comes to pimples. But i doubt that this product may be harmful because of the beads or scrubs contains it. And the beads are very hard like a tiny pebbles that may irritate the affected area. Or go with the old-fashioned way of using a regular toothpaste on night. I know its kinda weird having a toothpaste on the face but they say that the thing is very effective. (Colgate regular toothpaste paste base) I haven't tried either. What do you think guys? Please help me to get rid of these zits.

It is helpful if used GENTLY no more than once a week. It is very abrasive. Get some 10% benzol peroxide and dot it on the pimples (not your entire face) in the morning and at night. It really works. Get a generic brand, much cheaper, same stuff.
If you can find a mild clenser with benzol peroxide, that is also very helpful. Before applying the 10% stuff wipe your skin with a cotton ball soaked in witch hazel. I also hear that tea tree oil dabbed onto pimples helps, but I’ve not tried it.

i love all of Ives products and they do work..i also heard of the tooth paste and for some it does work..peroxide works to and so does alcohol..but they dry up your skin..and no the beads are not harmful to your skin..

the scrub won’t hurt your face or the pimples but only use it once or twice a week as it is ment to exfoliate (get ride of) the deal skin cells. my daughter had a bad case of acne it her is what works for her. washing her face at least twice a day then using one of the little towelets they have for acne almost any of them work. use on two or three times a day but especially just before going to bed and then as soon as you wake up. then the appricote scub twice a week. the amount of chips and greasy food she eats affect the acne as well so be care ful of the foods you eat. Good luck
