NeedCrystals Microdermabrasion Salicylic Exfoliator Blackheads Reviews Summary

Product Quality

Pros:

• "This may be the best micro abrasion I have ever used."
• "Great exfoliating powers! Makes all the dead skin come off - very fine powder for face!"
• "These crystals are tiny and uniform and do not scratch the skin."
• "This stuff is amazing!! I have used so many scrubs for my face and most of the scrub particles are too large but this works so well to unclog pores and keep skin smooth!"
• "Absolutely in love with this product, I can add to any face soap I want and it gives the most perfect microdermabrasion scrub I want!!!"
• "It’s PERFECT!! Dare I say …. I might even prefer it to the Olay product!"
• "I love how great these make my skin look and feel. I’m 51 and need to stimulate circulation and cell turnover on my aging skin."

Cons:

• "The only down side to using this is the crystals can form around the top of the jar and it makes screwing the top back on a little difficult."
• "I think it’s a good product. I used the provided scoop and I think it was too much. I was looking for a very gentle exfoliant and this was a little rougher than I hoped."
• "Noticed absolutely no moisturizing or deep cleaning with a week of use."
• "The only criticism I have is I wish the packaging were a little more user friendly."
• "On the down side the little scoop is flat it could do with being like a spoon to make it easier to negotiate crystals from the pot into your hand."
• "However must be extremely careful not to let it get in your eyes as this is fine powder crystals that could scratch/damage."
• "The product is ok but not the best. The crystals are too fine for my needs."

Packaging and Design

Pros:

• "Jar was completely sealed though and does not appear to be leaking."
• "Delivery was fast. Product was intact."
• "Package came completely sealed and in great condition."
• "It is packaged nicely and comes with a cute and handy spoon for application."
• "Product comes with a spoon to administer in your hand."
• "Love this microdermabrasion set. It comes with a spatula so you don't waste product."
• "Came with a nice little scoop to get the product out and did exactly what it says."

Cons:

• "Crystals are fine, but the lid! Ooooh it's such a pain to open it every time you want to use product."
• "The lid was shattered on one side so the contents were spilling of out it."
• "Also, the packaging could be problematic if you are keeping them in your shower and do not have a dry area."
• "When opening this product I noticed the box was opened and looked to be resealed/ glued together."
• "The bottle came with no protection on the top of bottle like it had been used."
• "Product was likely dropped on the sidewalk by the delivery drivers. It started leaking the white powder as soon as I picked it up."
• "The opening to shake out the crystals is so hard to turn to open the shaker, it makes the just ok crystals worthless since you can't get them out."

Customer Service
