I can use it on bare skin and after hair removal without any discomfort or irritation, which I really appreciate.
ConsYou have to write and close it with wet hands? Well, it's not like you're eating it, but it does feel a bit strange.

Can be purchased cheaply during frequent sales. Can be used once a week and last for about 3 months. Has a sweet scent.
ConsThe core is large and stimulating. It may have a sweet aroma that divides opinions.

My skin has become incredibly soft. I've tried it and it's not bad at all!
ConsThe only downside is that I haven't experienced any issues. I've already used up 3 of these in this size.
TipInstead of using it without any moisture, lightly mist your skin with a spray bottle before using. This way, even if you've already exfoliated or can't exfoliate due to an important event tomorrow, you can gently care for the top layer of your skin without peeling it off, and it will still work well.

First, this was my first time trying a scrub product from Skin Food. 📍Pros ✅ After using it, my skin feels so soft and smooth, like a baby's skin ✅ The bumps and uneven texture are temporarily reduced, but they come back if I don't use it regularly ✅ There are sugar-like granules that make me feel like my skin is getting cleaner when I wash it off ✅ Blackheads also seem to disappear for a while, but they come back if I don't use it often ✅ It does a pretty good job at exfoliating, which I like ✅ It's also safe to use on the body, which is great
Cons📍Cons ☑️The granules are a bit large, so it might be uncomfortable for those with sensitive skin ☑️You have to use it consistently, but not too often - around 3 times a week seems to be the sweet spot

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI used to make a natural pack at home by mixing black sugar and honey, but I always failed to control the amount, so I ended up wasting more than I used. Then I found out that Skinfood has a Black Sugar Perfect Essential Scrub 2X. The Black Sugar Perfect Essential Scrub 2X is made with black sugar and rice wine, and it contains macadamia seed oil and meadowfoam seed oil, so it not only exfoliates but also nourishes, moisturizes, and soothes the skin. It's a versatile scrub that can be used on the face and body. Just apply the right amount and massage it in, and your skin will be left smooth and hydrated. I've been using it 1-2 times a week. The product is finely ground to reduce irritation, so you don't have to worry about it being too harsh.
ConsThere doesn't seem to be any downside. The amount is generous, and it's easy to use.

It seems to be the most effective for exfoliating.
ConsSince my skin is quite sensitive, the granules felt rather irritating.
TipI would recommend scooping it out with a spoon rather than using your hands. It forms a light lather when it comes into contact with water, so it's better to avoid getting it wet.

ConsIt's good, but it just felt average, so I didn't repurchase it. It's worth trying it out once though.

I accidentally put some in my mouth while using it, and the sweetness was still there. ㅎ.. ✔️Texture: I thought it would be a soft scrub, but it was surprisingly firm! The granules also have the same feel as sugar. ✔️Review: The exfoliation is not extremely effective, but I can still feel a slight difference. The most surprising thing is the skin texture - it's incredibly soft and smooth! It works great not just on the face, but on the body too, leaving a velvety-soft feel!
Cons✔️Packaging: It's a bit inconvenient to use, as I have to scoop it out with my fingers. If water gets in, the surface turns white and feels unpleasant.
TipI use my hands to scoop it out, so I don't have any issues. But I think using other tools would be just as good!

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros1. This scrub has an oily texture, which makes it great for using on the body! It contains a lot of sugar, so when you apply and massage it onto your skin, there is a slight irritation, but it seems to effectively remove a lot of dead skin.
Cons2. Don't use it on your face!! It's likely too irritating. I strongly recommend using it on your heels or elbows instead. Avoid using it on delicate areas like your armpits.
Tip3. It's best to scoop out the product with a stick or spatula. Dipping your wet hands in to take it out can feel a bit messy.
