Burt's Bees Peach & Willowbark Deep Pore Scrub

After discovering that my favorite facial scrub has parabens in it and no longer says "This product not tested on animals", I need to find a replacement.

My first try is Burt's Bees Peach & Willowbark Deep Pore Scrub. It doesn't scrub as well, but I was willing to look past that. The big issue that I have with this product is that after using it, my face feels so waxy! It doesn't feel clean at all!

I've given up using it and I'm off to find another one to try! If you have any suggestions, please let me know. I like the scrubby kinds. :)
