Pros:

Gentle, natural, clean, cleans really deep into pores, and works well. Cheap!

Cons:

The first time you use it, if you leave it on, it will burn like hell. Can't be used alone.

I love Baking Soda as a cleanser. Rather than scrubbing/scratching at your skin like other scrubs, it buffs away dirt, dead skin, and oil. It cleans very deep into pores and pulls yuck out of them. After the first use or so, it didn't burn for me. But here's the deal-you can't use it alone. Baking soda has too high a pH level for your skin, you need something to even it out. I suggest using apple cider vinegar (diluted) as a toner. It will even out the pH of your skin, and it minimizes pores. Try it!

Pros:

clears up acne pretty quickly

Cons:

tends to burn a lot sometimes.

I tend to use this as every once in a while as a quick way to get rid of stubbor break outs. Usually I will use it for two days in a row (at night) when I am having really bad break outs and it works pretty well to clear them up. I wouldn't really try using it every day though, I mean, considering it can be used to clean things (and it is a REALLY good teeth whitener, but must be used VERY sparingly), I figure it can't be that great for your skin...

Pros:

Its cheap and clears some of my pimples

Cons:

It hasn't cleared my face up though and it stings when you put it on.

The bottomline is that i would recomend this to a friend because it does work but i would suggest you using it at night while your going to bed

Pros:

It really cleans my face! Cheap too!

Cons:

it stings on the zits.

It really works!!!!!!!!!!! my face is so clean after. i dont see any dirt on my cotton pads when im using toner. I use it after using acnefree wash and leave it on for 5 minutes while gently massaging my skin. I cant leave it on longer, it really stings!

Pros:

totally inexpensive, works pretty well

Cons:

slightly burns

this really works big time! keeps the skin supple. but you have to be very gentle with your facial skin. Lightly massage (don't Rub) the baking soda paste in small circular motions, for only 10-15 seconds. Never leave it on your face or you'll burn yourself and get unsatisfied with it. Just rinse your face before applying the paste, don't wash. It's always best to apply moisturizer after damp drying your face with a clean face towel. I use Nivea moisturizer, the one that comes in a blue flat tin can container. My skin loves this!

Pros:

red marks from zits gone, acne reduced

Cons:

burns, but thats not too bad.

everyone here seems to have had their acne go away in a few minutes! I put it on for a half hour and when i washed it off it looked alot better, but maybe i need more time with it to get others effects. Wierd thing here, when i washed it off it had popped all my zits and they were bleeding. idk, but it was deff wierd. I still recommend it though, b/c most whiteheads are less visible, and blackheads gone altogether.
