Pros:

Face had a nice clean glow after cleansing
No residue
Smells great (but, I now know that fragrance actually makes my acne prone skin worse)!

Cons:

Personally, my skin never really cleared up using this. It healed some pimples here and there, but not my bigger painful ones.

I used this in conjunction with the Biore astringent and found that Salicylic Acid is not the best bet for more severe acne. This is a great scrub for people with more mild acne and blackheads. With more severe acne, you need a cleanser without the irritating beads and fragrance (which makes it worse).

Pros:

Non Stripping
Does not make me break out.
Helps control my breakouts
I have no problems or complaints

Cons:

Nothing.

I found a review on you tube. I heard alot of great reviews more than other products. Decided to try it. After time it helped clear up my breakouts. Soft skin. You might not see it right away but it does help with breakouts. It never made my breakouts worse but it maintained it and helped. I love it. I use Noxema to but this is my main cleanser.

Pros:

+ Smells very good
+ Gentle but effective
+ A little bit goes a long way
+ Cleared my acne scars on my BACK!
+ Reduced the break outs and cut down on time it took the break out to heal

Cons:

- It's not advertised for body use

I picked this up after staring at acne products in Walmart for 30 minutes. I decided this is the last time i throw away money on a treatment before i try either murad or proactiv. I'm extremely pleased by the results i had dark scars and break outs over my shoulders on my back lower and up right where your spine is. I started using this in July and by October i've realized it gave me amazing results! It was cheap too, and a little bit goes a long away. So if you suffer from back acne try this please! Use it every time you shower or once a day!

Pros:

Smells pretty good

Cons:

Clogged my pores
Pretty abraisive on skin

I used to use this all the time when I was in high school. Then I started switching products like crazy, trying to find SOMETHING that would work. I recently went back to this product. Big mistake. I got painful cysts, my nose broke out horribly, and my pores looked huge. I don't know why I went back to this product considering how bad my skin was in high school. Also the particles were just much too abraisive and rough on my skin.

Pros:

- smells good
- makes skin feel tingly, fresh
- does not irritate skin
- exfoliates well

Cons:

- did not clear or improve acne

This scrub definitely exfoliates well. If I don't use it every night, my face is visibly flakey and dry the next morning. It's also very pleasant to use and leaves my skin feeling fresh. But the bottom line is that it did not noticeably improve my acne or "unclog my pores". I have not tried any other exfoliating scrubs, so I'm not sure how this will fare against another product, but until then I'm disappointed.

Pros:

Unclogs pores, smells good and cheap.

Cons:

Nothing I've noticed.

I have oily skin and my pores are often clogged up. This helps to unclog them and remove the dead skin, leaving me with softer skin.

Pros:

-Reduced redness
-Left skin feeling very clean and tingly
-Able to be used as a cleanser/exfoliator

Cons:

-Has not noticeably cleared acne (but reduced the size of certain zits)
-Has not entirely prevented breakouts

I really love this product! I had been using Proactiv for about the past year and a half. I actually started using Proactiv about three years ago, then stopped using it because I was not happy with the results I was getting. I then went to a dermatologist, which resulted in the worst breakouts I have ever head. My skin was very irritated from the harsh medication I was receiving from my prescription. Thus, I went back to Proactiv. For a while I was very happy with it and wondered why I had ever quit using it in the first place. It was not until very long ago that I realized I had acne scars and was not pleased whatsoever with my skin. I went to Walmart to purchase a new product to replace my Proactiv. I searched and bought this product, particularly because it said it was clinically proven to instantly work 67% better than Proactiv. I had never used any Bioré products before, so I was hoping for the best. I am so pleased with this product! I actually could instantly tell that it was working. It reduces the redness my skin has had for so long. I can't say that it has actually cleared any breakouts, but that is probably because I am not using a cream specifically for that and am in search of one. This is a great product for anyone with mild to moderate acne or even just a great exfoliator for a fortunate one without any acne.
