So-So Scrub Has Gentle Grains but Irritating Chemicals.
Clinique's Sparkle Skin is an all-over body exfoliator with medium-sized scrubbing grains in an aqua-colored gelatinous base. Apply before shower or in the shower, scrub, and rinse off. The grains are a nice size for a body exfoliator, small enough to avoid irritation. And it rinses easily. Sparkle Skin has a high water content, so it's diluted somewhat. I've noticed that Bliss added more water to their popular Super Slough Scrub recently also. The result is that we're not getting as much for our money as it appears. Clinique could pack more scrub into 200 ml with less water. As it is, one tube of this stuff only lasts 6-7 applications. Sparkle Skin's menthol scent is faint enough that I couldn't identify it without reading the ingredients. Clinique has a habit of putting menthol in their scrubs to disagreeable effect. The menthol makes sensitive areas of the body burn or tingle and is generally irritating. Sparkle Skin contains citrus and spearmint as well, also caustic ingredients. But the effect of the menthol is noticeable, so I can't give Sparkle Skin more than 3 stars. It's a competent exfoliator, but too watered down and unnecessarily irritating.
