I love the body shop's vitamin c microdermabrasion exfolient it's amazing!! If your looking for something that's on the lower price range you can try St Ives Apricot scrub it's pretty good as well
Don't use the st.ives one, yes it may make your skin feel soft but its actually bad for your skin. read on it here : http://www.saraashouri.net/2011/05/... . but you can use sugar and honey as an at home scrub, and i've heard clinique has an amazing exfoliate.

Hi Amanda,
I am a Esthetician. St.Ives is extremely irritating and cause micro tears in skin. You don't have to "feel" the scrub for it too work. A good/safe scrub is hard to come by. Try a enzyme or AHA/BHA ..Dermalogica daily microfoliant (amazing and super gentle), Mural exfoliating mask (one packet can be used 2-3x), Murad t zone pore refining gel (for dry, combo, normal, sensitive skin) or Murad acne exfoliating gel (only for very oily skin).
Wishing you happy & healthy skin!

@jena thanks so much st ives was like i said earlier irritating around that skin on my nose and into above my lip but I hate the skin stick up from dead skin. Ill try the suggestions
