Next time you want results, look on the back of the bottle and the price tag. I actually decided to try this having ran out of my normal exfoliator. I can get irritation from working out and sports bra band rubbing. I will say my skin is softer and with less irritation. The smell is not very desirable - not sure if this is the mystery fragrance added or the formula. I would rather just say GOOD BYE to the mystery fragrance for a little cleaner formula. Overall the ingredients are fairly basic but powerful enough for a good exfoliation and without added oils for those self tanners out there. For me, I would say this was a good little find while browsing the Target aisles and worth the price tag. Have you tried SLMD? I would love to hear your #lipsmack - comment below!
