Hello all,
I love trying new scrubs all the time and a while ago, I had picked up a Sea Mineral Scrub from H2O+ Aqualibrium range. Read on to find out more about this product.
Price:
$18 for 2.5 oz /75 ml; I have the mini version.
Product Description:
Soft, spherical beads gently polish away dryness without abrasion or irritation. Advanced formula improves skin texture and facilitates moisture penetration. Sea Mineral Complex and hydrating marine extracts of wakame, sea fennel, and sea lettuce help cleanse, while conditioning and softening the skin.
Ingredients:
Directions For Use:
Gently massage onto damp skin with fingertips. Rinse. Use twice weekly or as needed.
My Experience with H2O+ Aqualibrium Sea Mineral Scrub:
Packaging: The scrub comes in an attractive violet colored plastic tube with a screw on cap. The packaging is pretty standard but effective. It is travel friendly as well.
Texture/Fragrance/Performance: The first thing that hits you about the scrub is its exotic smell. It is quite a strong fragrance but one that I love. Though this might be a con for those with sensitive noses.
The scrub has a slightly runny consistency. It has tiny visible exfoliating beads. The beads are very tiny and do not feel abrasive on the skin at all. In fact, I found them to be a bit too gentle and as a result, the scrub ends up behaving as a face wash. Though, that does not take away from the fact that it cleans the skin thoroughly leaving it soft and smooth. It does not strip the skin of any essential moisture.
To summarize, I found this product to be too gentle to be called a scrub and I end up using it as a face wash. For that price, I surely expect more out of a product.
Pros of H2O+ Aqualibrium Sea Mineral Scrub:

- Exotic fragrance.
Cons of H2O+ Aqualibrium Sea Mineral Scrub:

IMBB Rating:
3/5.
Would I Repurchase H2O+ Aqualibrium Sea Mineral Scrub?
I would not recommend this product as a scrub as it is too gentle. Moreover, you can find better scrubs at the same price range. I would not repurchase as I was not too impressed by this scrub.

Too mild for my liking, I like a bit of harsh granules to get that clean feeling 🙂 I loved the way you reviewed the scrub Manaswini, it’s good for sensitive skin I guess 🙂
Oh ya, even too mild for me too. I like my scrubs to be a bit harsh (if I may), and I need to feel clean and refreshed after using them. H2O products used to be a rage few years back and I don’t see many reviews on IMBB or many people on their kiosks at the mall even. :/
too mild scrubs don’t really satisfy me while clearing blackheads and whiteheads around nose and chin area.
