This is a bottle of L'Oreal Garnier, Skin Naturals, Pure Active Energising Gel Scrub (150 ml) that sells on Amazon currently for just over £2 which is an excellent price for this product.

It comes from a bright, colourful, attractive bottle.

There is a nice fruity smell from this facial scrub. It's ingredients includes extracts of grapefruit, pomegranate and vitamin c.

This is an exfoliating product and when I wash my face with this scrub my face feels cleansed, refreshed and smooth. It feels smooth because it contains micro-beads. However, there is a negative to these beads as they are non-biodegradable and when washed down the plug hole they end up in our waters and can be eaten by our marine life.

This product will last you a long time as you only need to use a little bit to get it to lather up. I use this on a daily basis at night before I go to bed and moisturise after use as I have dry skin around my t-zone.

I have had no irritating effects when using...

because we're worth it?, 4 Dec. 2015

L'Oréal======They are the largest cosmetics company in the world. They have loads of brands from Garnier, L'Oréal and have huge research facilities in respect of cosmetics. Just because they're the biggest doesn't mean they're the best. Equally, just because they're the biggest doesn't mean they're evil. I've tested loads of L'Oréal stuff ranging from WOW this should be on the NHS to Oh my golly gosh-this is dreadful.OK? Let's go..WHAT IS IT=========A face scrubPROSgood valueeffective face scrubCONShas microbeads.

L'Oreal Garnier Skin Naturals Pure Active Gel Scrub, 10 Dec. 2015

I have been torn by these facial scrubs from L’Oreal. As a product, I cannot really fault it in terms of what it does. It has a lovely, fresh, fruity smell. It cleans well and leaves your skin feeling clean and fresh. However, it does contain micro-beads and these pollute the water – with quite disastrous results.This causes me a difficulty, as I wish to review the product for what it is, but then also feel I cannot ignore this issue – brought to my attention by other reviewers. As such, I would be unlikely to purchase this product in the future. I am sure that there are natural products which would work just as well and feel that L’Oreal will certainly benefit from changing their products. It is a shame, as their facial gel scrubs are excellent, especially for the price.
