Pros:

None

Cons:

- Left pimple Dry

My friend gave me her bottle of this product because for her it made her skin redicously clear. I wanted to try it to , so for a 2 days, I put it on overnight as a spot treament on one of my largest pimples. ( I just wanted to try it to see if it worked ) For me, it didnt work at ALL. it just left my pimple a tad bit redder. Bottom line is, It will work for some, and stink for others.

Pros:

-Made my skin smoother.
-Cleared up a few of my smaller zits.
-Reduced the redness of my zits.
-Awesome spot treatment or mask :)

Cons:

-Sulfur smells funky.
-Do NOT leave the mask on overnight, it'll make your face all red the next day. If you want to use it overnight, use as spot treatment.

Fantastic spot treatment, not too expensive and it lasts a long time.

Pros:

Will treat any type of blemish in 1-4 days.

Cons:

Sometimes does not bring the quickest results.

I got this product and I am only 11. I do not have acne, but I do occasionally get a pimple. I hate it, so I put a dab of the mask on the clogged pore, and it is gone in somewhat of a short time. I am a fan of it.

Pros:

-Dries out cysts
-Minimizes appearance of pores
-Cleans gunk out of pores
-Smooths skin

Cons:

-Odor.Bad,BUT if you have acne,the odor will not bother you as you'll just want to get rid of acne

I use it 2x a week,and as a overnight spot treatment.For me,I personally have cysts(pus filled),whiteheads and blackheads.This works good for whiteheads/cysts,and I also happen to have oily skin with large pores,so it helped minimize the appearance of my large pores,and it isn't over drying.I definitely recommend this to people with whiteheads,cysts or large pores.I got this in the $5.99 offer from ProActiv,so I got the whole set for $5.99

Pros:

Dries out pimples quickly, can be used as a spot treatment AND a mask, absorbs excess oils, controls oil, softens skin, good consistency.

Cons:

Sulfur smell.

I don't use this on a regular basis. I mostly use it as a spot treatment to heal pimples overnight. When I do use it as a mask, it does a really great job of getting rid of oiliness, and it keeps my face pretty matte for a while. I definitely recommend it.

Pros:

-Helps reduce oil
-Helps dry up zits
-Helps reduce redness
-Tightens pores

Cons:

-Only a mask
-The sulfur smell

Great mask if you have oily skin, but it doesn't really help all that much with acne. I prefer to use Acnomel as a spot treatment rather than use this mask because Acnomel has sulfur too but it's cheaper, has more sulfur, and can be found at most drug stores.

Pros:

ProActiv. awesome. bought 3 2.5 oz packs for $20 + $5 shipping.
used 2-5 times each week overnight and results were excellent.
the first night of the week you use it, it only brings out your acne... seems to force all oils and acne to the surface. the second time, you'll barely see any acne and will have a much healthier looking skin-tone.

washes off easy with Irish Spring.

best value compared to any acne treatment + cost, besides Acnexus.

Cons:

gets my pillow dirty.

worth the usual $10 price-tag's effort, even if it doesn't work you'll be writing a review helpful for anyone who may have similar skin that won't work with this. i don't know... just try it.
