Cons:
-Drying, you need to GENTLY buff away the leftover dry skin (best done when wet)
-Runs: in eyes, mouth, down neck, etc. Causing severe pain in the eyes and a unwanted salty taste.
-Flaky, however not so bad as conventional masques
I definitly recommend it, it has worked BEAUTIFULLY on my skin and has DEFINITLY decreased the severity of my acne. I don;t know what I would have done if I hadn't found this lovely little cure in a box.

Pros:
Gets rid of acne immediately! Also gets rid of cystic acne. Disinfects the skin like nothing else.
Cons:
Slightly drying after it is rinsed off but not overly drying so that it damages the skin it just does the job.
Follow my instruction: Mix baking soda and water. It should be the consistency of milk not a paste. You will have a thin layer all over your face. You don't need to form a paste it will be to thick and fall off. Put it all over your face and let it dry. I normally leave it on at least 1/2 hour to hour. Rinse it off without scrubbing your face. It will be glowing and the acne begins to dry up. Do this twice a day morning and night. After the 1st day I don't care who you are, you will notice a difference. For cystic acne it will take maybe two more days to deeply penetrate it but it will definitely clear that too, Trust me! Keep using this until your acne clears. Then use once daily as needed to keep acne at bay! This stuff is excellent in getting rid of acne. I was using proactiv and still getting acne because of the chemicals. I came across a site that mentioned baking soda to clear acne. I tried it and I am so happy!!! Please use it you will not be disappointed. Stick with it!

A little nervous...
Ok, I have super sensitive skin. I've tried everything from Proactiv, Proactiv plus, Aspirin masks, you name it... I came across the baking soda and coconut oil face wash/mask. I decided to try it. now, I do have dry skin and was a little nervous about this one. I didn't want my face breaking out anymore than it has. i did the 2:1 ratio. 2 teaspoons coconut oil (organic) and 1 teaspoon baking soda. I used it as a face wash rather than a mask. After I washed it off I was feeling a little nervous but decided to wait until the next morning. The next day I looked in the mirror and WOW! My face was smooth, and my pores were already starting to shrink. I was so surprised! I have awful acne on my forehead and around my chin. Definitely helped. I wouldn't use this everyday but maybe 2 or 3 times a week. :D Hope that helps!!

Pros:
-prevents breakouts
-brightens up skin
-cheap
-works
Cons:
-the time it takes to get the perfect constituency like a paste
-dried a bit of my skin
I have only tried this product for a week and I have definitely noticed a difference in my skin. I have more nocticed a difference in my actal skin rather then my ance. My pores overall seem to appear more minimized and my face has denfinitely been brighter and less dull. As for my ance it doesn't do a lot so far in this week ;I have also nocticed that I have no new breakouts this week even with having my period. Overall baking soda is a good product. By the way results may vary. I never wore makeup this week so that may affect this product.make sure you do the search and make sure to check on other ways using baking soda. Gotta love baking soda :) Warning/tip : the frist two times i did it it made my ance turn red but don't give it up. Try it a few times more then see. How I use it :
-Put the baking soda in bowl and Add water into it
- Make it into a paste like consistsncy (probably heard that like 100 times)
-apply to face gently
- i get it off after 5 minutes ( I take it off with both splashing warm water and paper towel)
- dry with a paper towel or just a plain towel
- i wait about 2 hours then i have a night shower with doing my regular skin care routine)

i used to have the worst acne ever but i went to the dermotologist and got retin-a micro, ampicillin and pan oxyl. i would use those products as prescribed and after a month of decent results i added this and honey to my regimen. it took all summer but i went from having more acne pimples than i can count(i counted 100 and gave up because i only counted on a qaurter of my face) to now having 1 to 2 on a normal day, when i break out like i am now which is not very common for me anymore i have 4 to 5(small and hard to notice tho thanks to this stuff) so basically this stuff works use it at night than put on honey over night after bs application

Pros:
makes the face seem really clean after using
softer skin
feels as if it is healing zits as soon as you put it on
Cons:
burns like HELL
I have very little acne, but just enough to bother me and make me feel less confident. i use this to get that clear airbrushed look on my face. i use the b. soda and leave it on for less than 5 min. was it off with hot hot hot water and a wash cloth. afterward i close my pores with lemon juice dabbed on with a paper towel. this seems to work good. i also use a few differnt other products, just a face wash i use every morning right when i get up and the at night before bed. i will also use toothpaste on a zit, just a little dab right before i go to bed and wash it off in the morning. this seems to be good!

Pros:
Makes skin reletively smooth
super cheap!
Only takes a couple minutes.
works pretty well the first few times
skin feels tight and pores smaller
Cons:
Burns like a son of a gun! :P
randomly made skin superr red and irritated!!
When I first started using this, it worked very well! It made my skin smooth, and it evened out my skin tone.
Then one day I used it, and it BURNED more than before. I didn't think anything of it and left it on. When i went to wash it off, it HURT :/ and my skin was like a tomato red. idk what happened but i'm a little nervous to do this again. my skin isn't very sensitive either....
Pros:
-Available in huge amounts (value pack!! Thank you Costco!)
-Cheap
-Works immeadiately
-(Depending on whether you like it or not) provides a stinging sensation, and I like to think that that lets you know it is working deep down (in the dermis, which is the 2nd layer of your skin)
