Pros SMOOTH skin (baby's butt smooth)
Cons Using the aspirin with just water is hard to do. It flakes and takes practice to figure out how much water to add.
Bottom line I tried this for the first time last night and LOVE LOVE LOVE it. Like everyone else has said, after all the HUNDREDS of dollars I have spent on every kind of acne product out there, I finally found one that costs me $4.00 every two weeks or so! All I use is genaric uncoated aspirin mixed with water. It's only been on use, but my skin is so smooth and the bumps I could not get rid of on the sides of my cheeks are barely noticable and far less rough. It is NOT drying either (which I thought it would be). I don't use any moisturizer. I think I'll keep this up every other day to hopefully see even better results!

Pros cheap easy to use
Bottom line its absolutely AMAZING. i broke out so badly about a week ago and in just three days my skin is almost completly clear. i wish i used it from the start. i change up the mask every other day.. sometimes i mix some aspirin with honey.. sometimes just water.. sometimes calamine lotion -- it works wonders.. i HONESTLY cant even name a product i havent tried on the market and nothing ever helped. i wasted so much money. i constantly broke out no matter what but ever since i been usin this my acne hasnt reaappeared.. and after i wash the mask off i rub ACV + lemon juice + water all over my skin like a toner.. try it

Pros Cheap, immediate results as well as long-term benefits
Cons none
Bottom line I mix 2-3 dissolved aspirin with some honey and leave on my just-washed-face for 20-30 mins a night, and as I am washing the mask off I gently rub in circles as an exfoliator for my skin. The immediate result is baby soft texture and the next morning my bumps have visibly reduced. After two months of this I am definitely sold, it works wonders and I wish I knew about it years ago.

Pros cheap, skin is so smooth after, really does reduce redness and bump appearance
Cons having to wait for 20-30 minutes is kind of annoying because some of the aspirin flakes off but its definitely worth it!
Bottom line Every night, I take about 10 aspirin in my hand and just put a few drops of water and smash them up in my hand. Then I rub it into my face and leave it for 20-30 minutes. Then, I rub off the excess aspirin but leave the powdery coat on my face overnight. Works great just a word to the wise, when wiping the excess off your face, don't inhale, the first night I was sneezing for hours after.

Pros Remarkably smoother skin! Definitely brings down the bumps on the skin. Very affordable!
Cons Process is a little tedious, and for a guy, it's a little demasculating... not sure how to wear 'masks' but it's like I can't move my head!
$7CAD for 100 no-name aspirins, $2 cotton swabs, $2 generic alcohol-free toner, $25 Neutrogena Anti-wrinkle
Bottom line Gotta try this out! I will admit that I was pretty skeptical when I first read about it on a blog. But the results in the pictures were undeniable! Apparently, the active ingredient is being research heavily, mainly for gingivitis, and other topical uses (acne).
What do you have to lose?
I've read some good ideas here, and I'll let everyone know how the anti-wrinkle cream works... apparently Neutrogena's Healthy Skin Anti-Wrinkle is good, cheaper than the "Clinique" brands... it's the retinol I think the blog said.
I'm so glad that I've found something that works so well... the price is just a bonus! Needless to say, I will be cancelling my Proactiv subscription...
Price paid $35.00

Pros i had moderate acne on saturday....i did the mask and the 1st time i did it, it was miraculous...all of the red marks faded, i was astonished....ive been doing the mask about 2-3 times aday since, and it definately works, but just not as much as the
Cons if you leave it on too long or do it too many times a day, it drys out your skin, its been about a week since ive been doing it and my acne went from about 75% of my face to about 25%
Bottom line to counter-act the drying, ive been mousturizing the sh*t out of my face, but im going to go get some aloe vera and try mixing it in with the aspirin so hopefully that works....most things i try usually make things worse, and this hasnt so far, so hopefully i can be completely clear by next friday

it does make your skin incredibly smooth tho

Bottom line I take about 8 aspirin and mix with aloe vera and my skin feels amazing! I leave on for about 20 mins and when I wash it off the break outs have either disappeared or have shrunk down to where you can barely see them!

Pros Softer, brighter skin, reduction of bumps and redness, smaller pores.
Cons can be drying
Bottom line I still can't believe it. I keep expecting my skin to start breaking out again, but it hasn't. I started mixing 4-5 crushed aspirin with moisturizer (ponds dry skin cream) and using as a mask. the moisturizer helps with drying and hen i wash it off, the aspirin exfoliate. i haven't tried honey yet because i'd never heard of that, but i definitely will.

and yes, i have tried just about everything. this works very quickly, for bumps, scars, and blackheads.
