This is a pretty good product if you have oily skin. I just started using it so i'm not for sure if it actually clears the acne all that well..

Pros:
  • Made my skin very soft afterwards.
  • Smells great.
  • Made oily areas cleaner.
  • Didn't irritate the skin.
  • Didn't cost all that much.
Cons:
  • The beads inside hurt a bit.

I have very oily skin.After seeing advertisements, I thought I would try it. I began using this with the Clarisonic, and within one day my skin was dried out. So then I stopped the Clarisonic and just used the wash. It was still very drying. My skin is so oily that I cannot use a moisturizer, but I did use one just on the dry areas. My skin was still peeling after. Not a good product.

I used this only a few times per week and let it set for a minute or two before rinsing.

I find that it stays more affective this way! On the other days I wash with Dove face bar or just warm water in the a.m. It loses its affect if you use it 2x/day every day and may dry out your skin.

Pros

  • Inexpensive
  • Smells great
  • Sloughs off dead skin cells

Cons

  • Overuse and your skin may dry out
  • moderate
  • for about a year
  • $ 6

I stopped using it for about a month and then I started it again. I stopped because it was drying my skin out. I decided that I would use lotion this time. The lotion wouldn't even help it. To be truthful it dried out my skin so much that it looks like I have a beard. I'm a woman-and I don't want a beard. I have about five or six pimples on my chin plus many black heads. And many going around my head where my hair starts. Probably only because on my hair there all the time. I have a lot of black heads on my nose and no actual pimples. Hope I helped!!

Pros

  • Smells great
  • Gets rid of unneeded oils

Cons

  • Drys out skin-even lotion won't help me
  • Burns my skin
  • Makes skin feel tight
  • Made my acne a little worse
  • moderately severe
  • for about a week
  • $ 8
  • I do not recommend using this product/treatment.

This product worked at first, showing signs of disappearing acne. Though in the second or third week I began having a lot of huge pimple type breakouts my forehead. I thought it was just trying to get rid of all the acne beneath the surface, but two weeks later still using the product my acne was just worse than before.

Pros

  • Cleared some acne within first week

Cons

  • After first week I started having many huge pimples on my face
  • Made my acne worse then before
  • moderate
  • for a few weeks
  • $ 8
  • I do not recommend using this product/treatment.

This product kinda works but I suggest using Noxema pads after using this product and a honey mask so your skin doesn't dry out. My routine: Wash skin with Neutrogena wash twice a day. After I do this, I wipe my whole face with the Noxema pad. I also do this twice a day. I then use a honey mask so my skin doesn't dry out. The honey mask also prevents acne. Honey mask: Use raw honey. Apply all over face. Leave on for 10-15 minutes. Rinse with warm water.

Pros

  • Clears some acne
  • Doesn't dry too bad

Cons

  • Doesn't get rid of ALL acne unless used with other products
  • Leaves some red marks
  • moderate
  • for a few months
  • $ 7
  • I recommend using this product/treatment.

This product has a great smell and lathers pretty well. It cleared up my skin pretty quickly, but the more I used it the more my skin became irritated. My skin burned, even when my face had been moisturized. Does it work, yes, but it dries out your face terribly.

  • Cleared skin

Cons

  • Dried out my skin
  • Burned my skin
  • moderate
  • for a few months
  • $ 6
  • I do not recommend using this product/treatment.
