Pros cheap & convenient
Cons potentially abrasive
Bottom line Stupid me - I popped a HUGE painful whitehead on my lower cheek last night. I ended up doing some minor surgery when I discovered a SECOND smaller whitehead inside it, so needless to say this zit turned into a flaming red open wound on my face. 3% hydrogen peroxide turned the whole thing WHITE which looked even worse, so I scratched it off and slathered it in neosporin. By morning, there was a black scab on top of it.

Tonight I smashed up 10 uncoated aspirin tablets and used just a few drops of water, leaving it on for 30 minutes. Umm - WOW. The wound, which had closed halfway during the day today, is now completely closed, but no scabbing whatsoever. It HEALED. The redness faded DRAMATICALLY - it is now less red than some of my healing scars. It looks like a measley pink mark on my face - it's unbelievable that this was a huge open crater just hours ago. I cannot believe the difference this has made. My skin feels insanely soft and my pores are invisible. Try this.
Price paid $0.99

Pros Really cheap and it worked pretty fast
Cons A bit drying
Bottom line I woke up one morning with really ugly bumps on my face and it's not acne, they're not even red, they're just a bunch of bumps even on my forehead, so I panicked and tried washing my face several times daily, nothing works, and I found this article and comments about the aspirin mask so I went to the store and bought a bottle with 100 tablets for $1.99. I put on the mask as soon as I got home and then once more before I went to bed, when I woke up in the morning, my face was back to the way it was, smooth and flawless, so now I am gonna be using this everyday. If you're gonna try it, just don't forget to put on moisturizer because it can be a bit drying.

Bottom line My pores have NEVER been smaller!
Since the original aspirin mask dried out my skin a bit too much, I crushed up 3 aspirin with about a tablespoon of honey (a natural humectant) and VIOLA! PERFECT SKIN.

I have tried EVERYTHING. To think that a two dollar bottle of aspirin and a honey bear were all I needed!

Whoa! Holy crap! I've always been kinda embarresed to ask my parents to get me acne medication and so I was searching for something I could do myself. Lo and behold I found this :D! I've been doing this for about 2 weeks, and my pimples are so much smaller and less red. It's not an instant treatment, but be persistant and your skin will look sooo much better. It helps a lot too that my skin is now as soft as a baby's ass!

Wow, this works wonders! I put it on just last night and i can already see my skin getting clearer, On thing though- it really tightened up my skin so I used some mousturizer and that made it burn like crazy...so I put some lemon juice on a cloth and dabbed it on my face. I reccomend crushing 2 aspirins then mixing in just enough calmine lotion to make a paste with noticable aspirin beads.

It works for eliminate redness on my face, I just used it once, and the result is amazed me....I mean it's not suddenly flawless, but I can see the instant effect on my face. I wonder if there's side effect in this mask....I hope not b'coz I will put it on my face again...maybe once a week..?

I am absolutely amazed with the fact that something like this actually works. The reason is quite simple though, aspirin is made from acetylsalycilic acid and salysilic acid is what most drugstore acne medications are made up of. Also, irritation probably shouldn't be too bad for most because aspirin also contains anti-inflammatory properties.

I'm looking around online tonight, to find a remedy for my 13 year old daughters back acne. Has anyone had any success with the asprin paste in reducing acne on their back?
