Pros:

Skin did improve on the majority of my face

Cons:

It caused big red bumps on my chin, I only used it twice and had to stop using it, the bumps are now beginning to clear up

I was 99% percent clear before using it, I just wanted a good way to exfoliate my skin, but unfortunately this wasn't for me, my super sensitive skin couldn't handle it and it caused cystic acne on my chin. It is an excellent product though if your skin isn't as reactive.

Pros:

calms skin, reduces flakes, helps acne

Cons:

makes me a bit shiny when the weather is hot (or maybe just doesn't combat shine?).

This is a very gentle product; even if it tingles a bit, it doesn't irritate the skin. It also works great as a spot treatment as well as for the chest, back and arms (I love it for my arms, it keeps them really smooth, none of those little bumps at all!). I have only used it for a few weeks and need to use it longer to know all the results.
