I was going to suggest that product but you won't get any foaming action. I'm trying to think if the new Aloe Vera line has a facial scrub product. Hmmmm, don't know. I also use the Grapeseed scrub but it is very scrubby and here again, no foaming action.

The other scrub I was considering was their Vitamin E Cream Exfoliator. I have a feeling that one would have been much more my speed.

One product from The Body Shop I adore for a good deep clean (without being overly drying) is their Warming Mineral Face Mask. I couldn't use it daily, but when I do use it (about 1x a month) it's amazing.

Thanks for the comment!

so this would probably not work for me either. I'm a sucker for anything labeled "Vitamin C" though.

Just curious - what was the other scrub you were thinking of getting? If you do end up buying it, I hope you'll review it because I'd like to follow your lead since it sounds like our skin is very similar and I jump at any chance to spend more money at The Body Shop.

I tried some of the Seaweed line and I liked the scent (reminds me of Philosophy's Message in a Bottle) but it broke me out something awful. :(
