Cons:

Does not work

It helped a tiny bit but not very well. I would much rather just use some benzoyl peroxide

Pros:

it was sort of making the thing...thats just about it.

Cons:

it really didn't work. a big mess. left skin irritated.

I got 3 aspirin tablets and crushed them up using the back of a clean spoon. Then i added a little bit of water and left it on for about 20 minutes. it left my skin feeling raw and the redness of my pimple on my nose was still there, if not even more bright pink. people keep telling me to try it again using other aspirin but i don't think so. maybe it will work for you though! its cheap and there was no REAL side effect except the redness was the same-ish and a mess from the crushed aspirin.

Pros:

Tones the skin, reduces inflamation, rids tiny pimples almost overnight.

Cons:

Dry, flaky skin, takes a long time to get rid of large spots, difficult to get the mixture right.

I've now used this twice and I can honestly say I've noticed a sizeable improvement on my face. The lower part of my face, around the jaw line, has always suffered tiny whiteheads and these are now dried up and gone, but in there place is unfortunately dry, marginally peely skin, however the tone is much improved and preferable to spots. I suffere larger spots between my cheek-bone and ear and down to my shaving line; these are taking time to dry up but the aspirin has definately helped them on there way. After my first application a smal breakout patch appeared, but the second appliation has dried this up before it fully formed. Once the spots are under control I will try this only twice a week and see how I get on. I now need to but a heavier moisturiser however to sort out the dryness, but this might be due to the quantity of Aspirin I used and the other ingredients; 12 crushed Aspirin 1Tbs Water 1Tsp Simple Moisturing face wash. I leave the mixture on for an hou

Pros:

I feel a nice cooling sensation. Very Cheap! I paid 94 cents at wal-mart at 3AM this morning when I first heard about this supposed miracle cure. I was too hyped to sleep and wanted to try!

Cons:

Its flaky but thats a minor con.

Ok, I have only heard about this in less than 24 hours and have used the mask 4 times right now. In fact I'm sitting here wearing one now. I am that desperate! I have tried everything and nothing is working. My face isn't super bad but its bad enough where I'm afraid to show my face to my girlfriend and it just ruins everything. I use roughly 15 cheap aspirins in a lil water, sometimes I add honey as I heard this was a good idea but I have no idea if it matters. ITs really grainy and never really forms a paste. I hope I'm doing it right I wish those who had success would better explain exactly what they did and what the stuff looked like when done right. I leave it on for 30 minutes and it begins to flake off and the slightest movement so be careful. So far no noticeable change but its only been a day. I'm really having high hopes for this one after reading all the reviews. If anyone is having success post! I check back here often and please explain in great detail what you do

Pros:

I CURED my cystic acne through a special preparation sequence involving extraction of pure aspirin crystals and addition of those crystals to neutrogena body wash as a viscous base.

Cons:

This preparation is extremely harsh and not for everyone. The skin on my hands peeled off several times due to it. This has potential for liver and kidney toxicity due to the high concentrations of aspirin. Don't get it in your eyes!

I use a technique called recrystalization to actually extract pure aspirin crystals from tablets. I had a lot of trouble finding a base to add these to since the crystals make virtually everything extremely watery. I finally did find a base - neutrogena oil free body wash - which does not grow watery with addition of the crytals. The wash, which I use daily, has virtually elimiated my acne. I had cystic acne before, and now I have virtually clear skin. Why this is not a commercial product is a mystery to me. In any case, the mixture contains approximately 50 to 90 percent aspirin crytals. I am not overly concerned about liver or kidney toxicity because I think that the chemicals probably do not enter my bloodstream to a large extent. This formulation is extremely harsh. You should wear gloves when applying it to your face (My hands have actually peeled due to the drying). I think there are a lot of chemicals that can cure acne. This is one of them.

Pros:

Reduces swelling and redness

Cons:

White residue

Whenever I have a HUGE bump or a very bad acne bump I take an aspirin and mix it with a few drops of water till it is pasty. Then I leave it on the bump for awhile and the swelling and redness are reduced! It is great for when you need to be ready quick and you need to take care of it quick!

Pros:

smells good feels fresh

Cons:

none

I got out 6-8 white aspirins and got out a hammer and chopped them into powder. This works great on my counter in kitchen. Then I put the crushed powder in a bowl added several drops of water then put a few squirts of honey. I mixed it all together then put into the microwave for 20 seconds. Then put it on my clean face. Left on 10 minutes. It feels so fresh and clean helped the irritated skin that is broken out. I hope it clears it up soon! Feels great on my face.
