Pros umm...cheap?
Cons well...nothing bad i guess, besides the fact that it didnt really do anything.
Bottom line Okay i picture a line in my head. Then at the right is the evil products that make my face break out. At the left end are the good products...even though i don't have any. In my opinion, the aspirin mask is in between, the netrual section. It didn't make my acne worse but yet it didn't help it, that's the reason i gave it 2 stars. I suggest trying it because a lot of people suggest it.

Pros The Aspirin mask is great!! It reduced the size and redness of my pimples. It makes my skin feel soft and gives a nice glow.
Cons None!!
Bottom line I have stubborn, hormonal acne that is hard to treat. I started using the Aspirin mask in combination with my prescription sulfur acne wash and Differin gel (neither of which were doing much w/out the Aspirin mask) and amazingly, within a few days, my face looks INCREDIBLE. I wash my face with the sulfur wash first, then dissolve 2 aspirin in warm water, add aloe vera gel and coat my face for about half an hour. Then I rinse, apply Differin and go to sleep. When I wake up in the morning, I notice a huge difference- the pimples are flatter, less inflamed and no longer painful. This mask is DEFINITELY worth a try, especially in combination with other regimens that you are using.

Pros Cheap, easy
Cons I use cheap aspirin covered in the red stuff that makes it taste like candy, so i need to rinse that off. Can get clothes dirty.
Bottom line I use it often enough. I havent used it enough to determine wether or not it gets rid of acne but it does make my skin softer.

Almost 30 from TX
January 24, 2009
Pros Works great when used consistently, face texture is much smoother, diminished blackhead & whiteheads, reduces redness, shortens length of pimples,
Cons You have to use constantly, if I forget one day I will break out
Bottom line I'm almost 30 and have been battling severe acne since puberty. I have tried every over-the-counter thing you can think of. I've been on antibiotics and other perscribed medications. ASPRIN IS A MUST TRY! The only thing to ever slightly work for me was a Biore scrub with 2% salicylic acid. I was on acne.org searching for yet another remedy when I saw great reviews for Asprin. I was suprised to find out that salicylic acid is Asprin. The 2% put in some over-the-counter wash is equivalent to about 1/2 a baby asprin. I just needed a stronger dose. I put 6 to 8 asprins and a few drops of water in my hand. After a few seconds they will get soft enough to mush easily making a paste. I mix with my Biore scrub and scrub my face gently. I do this morning and night. As long as I use a moist. after I never have a probably with dryness. I'm not totally blemish free but I don't get as many and when I do they don't last as long. I also don't get those huge under the skin ones anymore! GIVE IT A TRY!

Pros makes skin really soft and reduces and inflamed zits
Cons crushing up the pills is a pain
Bottom line i've had problems not really with acne but my cheeks are always red and have bumps all over them. i used about 6 crushed aspirin mixed with a few drops of water and aloe vera gel. the results were amazing after just one use the redness on my cheeks were gone and the bumps were reduced. some people may say it makes your skin feel tight after they wash it off, but i just put aloe vera on after. the aloe vera itself is supposed to help acne a lot and can be used as a makeup primer. its great for dry skin.

Pros Reduces redness, exfoliates skin, gets rid off dead skin fast, makes your acne bumps less noticeable, helps the swelling, and takes away the scars.
Cons Dangerous cause my pets try to lick my face :) lol that's it.
Bottom line NOTHING NOTHING has worked for my acne but this! I know it will not work on everyone, but I went to many people and bought a lot of face products that didn't work and only burned my pimple and made it red and a lot worse. When I heard of this I tried it and it's been working wonders. I love it and it's very inexpensive. I use it a lot on my chin, pimples on your chin are hard to get rid of b/c they are hormonal, but this is the only thing that has worked for me. I've been using it everyday & make a mask once a week.

Pros no side effects, softens skin, can also act as exfoliant
Cons messy
doesn't do a hell of a lot.
Bottom line I used this every now and then but it didn't do much for me.

I am sure it works for others

I wouldnt rely on it as a single agent in the treatment of acne

give it a shot but I think the reviews here are a little over-excited

Pros dont do it
Cons believe me
Bottom line i'm a pharmacist.. asprin is acetyl salycilic acid.. most products u buy that are facial cleansers contain salycilic acid. or benzoyl peroxide.. both work similarly on the skin. salycilic acid drys your skin and also drys up oil on ur skin causing pimples and acne to dissapear.. However.. its also dangerous.. it can be absorbed through your skin and can cause serious skin reactions as well as bodily reactions includin bleeds... Buy products from the store or see your dr. for a stronger strenght via prescription... The products you buy at the store at least you can trust and have been tested.
