Pros:have literally only gotten TWO pimples (minor) since i started using baking soda a few weeks ago. normally, i get one new pimple every two days!
Cons:takes an hour for the redness to fade after i use it, but i've got really sensitive, fair skin :/
Bottom Line:try it. you won't regret it. even though it hasn't completely gotten rid of everything (yet) it's obviously helping WAY more than any prescribed meds or expensive cleansers i've used in the past. spot treat as soon as you see something forming and it will be eradicated before you know it. i'm obsessed!

Pros:Very affordable, doesn't leave crusty dry patches around blemishes, began working within a few days, exfoliates well, a little goes a long way. A & H baking soda also comes in a plastic shaker bottle perfect for keeping in the shower.
Cons:None
Bottom Line:I mix a sprinkle with my liquid face wash each time I wash my face. I used to use BP and salicylic acic treatments until I found this natural solution on a web posting. Also found info that says BP has been linked to free radical formation, similar to not using sunblock outdoors. I now have an affordable skin regimine that actually works on my adult breakouts!!

Pros:It doesn't sting, it doesn't smell bad or leaving a burning feeling like most acne medications
Cons:It's a little itchy on me
Bottom Line:I sorta gave up on acne meds cause some of the scrubs, cleansers, toners, and even moisturizers use chemicals that recently became too harsh for my skin. So after accutane, proactive, murad, clean & clear, neutrogena, clearasil, differin, clinique, and many others, I decided to go natural. See how that works. So, I've been using this product for about a week. It really does help out with scarring and dries up the pimples. I mean REALLY dries them. But sometimes I wanna see my skin clear so badly I believe it's working when it might not be, so I get my little sister to be the judge on that.
