Cons:
dries out skin a lot if used often. Probably best for those with oily skin. Makes you sneeze
Good if used in moderation, won't clear blackheads or acne completely but will reduce inflammation and help to prevent new pimples from forming

Pros:
none
Cons:
irritating
skin felt really raw
didn't help
didn't work at all i think i got more pimples on my cheek.there is just so much hype about it and it might work for you

Pros:
Very cheap. Some improvement. Convenient (most households already have aspirin handy). If you don't like the mask, you can keep the unused aspirin for other uses.
Cons:
Messy, crumbly, can be harsh on skin if overused. It's awkward to crumble the aspirin - but I have found that melting them in a small amount of water for 10 minutes before crushing makes it much easier.
I have noticed a *small* improvement in the texture of my skin - all the fine bumps have smoothed somewhat. It's only been a few days and I have noticed any improvement in my acne, but I will wait a few weeks for that. My pores seem the same, but they weren't that big to start with. Immediately after using the mask, the skin feels smooth. But that smoothness fades away hours later, so it might just be due to the aspirin residue and not any real improvement in the skin. I will continue to use for one month to see if it clears up my blackheads and evens out the texture more. It's worth a try!

Pros:
It slayed the monster that took over my forehead! It took a few days, but made a noticable difference right away. Follow it up with a gentile swab of peroxide and you're good to go!
Cons:
Burns a little and can really dry you out, but a good moisturiser takes care of it.
It works and only takes 1 pill as a spot treatment or 5 for your whole face. At $7 for 500 pills, you can't go wrong.

Pros:
Cheap as chips, easy to find, skin feels smooth
Cons:
texture not great - may need to combine with something else (honey, aloe vera, etc)
Have just used this once, so can't comment yet except to say that my skin is smoother and I may try with some 100% aloe vera gel as the "paste" is more like wet sand, so doesn't stay on well. But, I came across the following article:
[link edited out] There may be something to this... The beta hydroxy, salicylic acid and anti inflammatory in aspirin make it seem logical

Pros:
umm...cheap?
Cons:
well...nothing bad i guess, besides the fact that it didnt really do anything.
Okay i picture a line in my head. Then at the right is the evil products that make my face break out. At the left end are the good products...even though i don't have any. In my opinion, the aspirin mask is in between, the netrual section. It didn't make my acne worse but yet it didn't help it, that's the reason i gave it 2 stars. I suggest trying it because a lot of people suggest it.

Pros:
Smoother skin, dried out , decreased size of pimples
Cons:
caused more redness, hard to crush (although I may have bought the wrong one)
It may have caused more redness but it reduced the size of the acne and since it just dries everything out i suggest just moisturing it afterwards

Pros:
Everyone hypes it up so it may have some psychological benefit.
Cons:
Didn't do anything.
No miracles here. Try it though, could be me.
April 28, 2007
Pros:
Tightened pores, clearer skin, great on acnes... since it is anti-inflammatory agent.... like everyone else mentioned, baby soft skin.
Cons:
Tedious application, got to melt the pills in liquid (your fav. toner/oils etc.)... flaky mask, and pretty messy.
Amazing results, it is worth it! Should have tried it sooner!
Chucking all other masks!
Pros:
Reduces redness of pimples and makes pimples less shiny
