One of the best deep scrubs
I've used Lancer, I've used other brands with a fine pumice scrub.The Origins version is fantastic. It's expensive for the amount you get. But, you don't need much to get a great, invigorating face scrub that removes everything and leaves your skin smooth and more even. I buy this repeatedly now bec...

Disheartened by the results…
I was really hoping to love the Origins Checks and Balances Polishing Facial Scrub because I do really love the brand. However, I am disheartened by my experience with this product after just one use and can definitely never use it again nor recommend it to others. This scrub is extremely intense ...

I think this is my favorite product here! I'm 70 and my skin has changed but I have always needed exfoliation. After 50 years of using scrub cleansers, this is my favorite. It's lightweight and uses irregular minerals to scrub, not the "beads" in other scrubs that don't seem to get to the blackheads I still have at this age. And it has the added benefit of the same feel as the frothy checks and balances face wash....light and minty!
Not impressed...Please bring back Modern Friction!

Unfortunately and disappointingly, I was not impressed. Modern Friction was the best facial scrub ever. Why hasn't Origins brought this product back after countless years of requests from customers?
It's good!!
I didnt expect it it be light/medium exfoliation, but it still gets the job done if you message your face for a bit. I recommend this with their frothy fash wash, total game changer!! :)
The very best
This is my favorite face wash. It's often hard to find.
Not a fan

When I saw this, I was so excited and bought some. That didn't last long. I liked that it cleaned my face, but as for a scrub, it didn't really meet my expectations. It was a smaller bottle with a larger price tag and I had to use more product to clean/scrub my face. It was a huge let down, especially since I LOVE checks and balances. I will not be purchasing this again.
