Why it's great: This scrub uses a physical exfoliant and a mild chemical exfoliant to help get rid of dry, dead skin and help with keratosis pilaris (aka "chicken skin"). Reviewers with KP agree that this product is worth shelling out a little extra cash for. Users also love that it helps prevent ingrown hairs. It "doesn't leave that oily residue that most scrubs do" and "a little goes a long way" — so the tub of product lasts a long time.
We love a rich, moisturizing body scrub. Unfortunately, exfoliating in the shower can take circus-like stability to avoid slipping on the layer of oil that many body scrubs leave all over the tub. That's why an excellent scrub must have great balance, too: the right ratio of skin-sloughing properties to moisturizing elements, and an amazing fragrance that is energizing, yet relaxing enough to make you feel like you've stepped into a luxury spa. Sound like a tall order? That's why only 17 body scrubs made the cut. Click through to see which reader-reviewed products stand up to the challenge.
