Pros:

Leaves skin clear, works well, makes skin soft, not too abrasive, leaves skin feeling cool and refreshed, and I don't even have to use a toner or moisturizer and it will still make my skin look amazing! <3

Cons:

Doesn't exfoliate as well as I would like it to, but still works amazing! <3

This product is amazing! I have very acne prone, combination skin and it doesn't dry out my dry cheeks or oil up my t-zone! Leaves your face feeling super duper soft and cool. I've been using this for about 2 or 3 weeks and it's been leaving clear and beautiful. I used to use St. Ives Apricot Scrub and it worked, but it was a bit too abrasive. This scrub has just enough beads in it and the beads don't exfoliate as much as the St. Ives does which I really like. It starts out as a gel type of cleanser and turns into an exfoliant and then into a creamy cleanser. Works super duper well! I would recommend using an extra exfoliator if your skin loves to be exfoliated like mine. My acne has cleared up loads! I use this with no toner, and a Walmart brand moisturizer, and it works well. I don't know how well this would work on sensitive or super dry skin, but on oily-combination skin, it works well. Love this product! <3

Pros:

It gives you a very light feeling, extremely gentle, comfortable. It seems to work very well with sesitive skin. Leaves skin, so soft.

Cons:

It doesn't seem to do anything, like it doesn't exactly remove acne. Skin tends to become a bit dry, somewhat red.

It seems to be really gentle, very creamy. It doesn't actually seem like a scrub to me more like a cream cleanser. When I first used it my skin felt really hot and uncomfortable, however, it did adjust easily very quickly. Everyone's skin type is different it could work for you it could not. I'd say give it a week before giving up on it though.

This is a great product to use in conjunction with a BP treatment. It's perfect for sensitive skin and gets rid of all my dry patches.

Pros:

Helps to keep pores.Decreases acne Because it exfoliates due to the beads it contains, it did help with preventing clogged pores after getting eyebrows waxed.

Cons:

Can leave skin dry. Does not help with texure of skin.

This product is helpful for exfoliating the skin to prevent clogged pores but can be drying.

Pros:

Smells great
Gentle on skin
Feels refreshing

Cons:

Doesn't really work for acne

Let's get it straight, the reason people on this website use this product is because they think it will help them with their acne. However, this simply does not work for mine. Biore certainly makes attractive products- they all smell great and feel really refreshing. The problem with this product and moderate to severe acne is that the active ingredient is salicylic acid. Salicylic acid in reality doesn't do a whole lot other than open your pores, making them susceptible for *other* treatments. For many acne-sufferers, this is simply not going to improve their condition. I read one reviewer saying this is "gentle" and doesn't do "stripping". "Stripping", or removing a layer of skin may actually help some acne sufferers. The reason some people get acne is because they have relatively thick skin, which doesn't promote regular cell turnover, thereby clogging their pores. This is exactly what tretinoin does as a prescription medication. In short, this product is just far to mild to be effective. I think it may benefit people with very light acne, but it just didn't do anything for me.
