Please help my face scrub plight

For the last few years I have used the perfect face scrub - Neutrogena Pure Glow daily warming facial scrub. It is non-foaming, the scrub is sugar which means it melts to nothing and is gentle enough for daily use. It has something in it (Zeolite I think) which means that it leaves a feel of a thin film over the skin - some people hate it but for me it means no moisturiser needed - perfect!

Only it has been discontinued, and I have reached the end of my stockpile and can't buy any more :(

Is anyone able to suggest a product they have used that sounds similar? I have googled the ingredients and only found one other but that also seems to have been discontinued. Can you tell I'm desperate?!

No-one? Am I destined to spend the rest of my days collecting tubes of once-used scrub on the offchance it works?

Olive oil mixed with sugar works for me.

Replies - thank you so much!

tiggy02 - interesting, can you use it daily and do you need a moisturiser afterwards? If so def interested in where to buy online, thanks.

ruddynorah - yes, I have also been considering making my own, just the storage and faff mean it will prob be my last resort. How do you go about it? Keep ingredients in bathroom and mix as needed or what?

I keep oil in a travel size pump because I oil cleanse every day anyway. If I feel I need a scrub I just take a teaspoon of salt and add a blob of oil.
