Pros:

very cheap and easy to use

Cons:

i dont know about the rest of you but it didnt do much for me

I used it for about a week, it cleared up my face the slitest bit, maybe thats just my skin, it would never hurt to try it anyways. I know of a greate home remidy for reducing the redness of spots and pimples and that is camomile tea. Dip some face wips in the tea and place it on your face for about 20 minutes, do that about 4 times a day and only after 1 day you will see results, half the redness would have disappeared!

Pros:

I've only used the baking soda water/peroxide paste mix for a few days but I can totally see a difference. It's worked better then any thing else I have tried so far.( but it's only been a few days so it might not be the best judge)

Cons:

It can sting abit, depending on the person it can be worse or better. My mother tried it and it hurt worse for her then it did for me. Which is strange because I have very sensitive skin.

The bottom line for me is that this is the only product that has really actually helped me. And like many people have been saying, it's so cheap! Not to mention easy to do. I'd recommend this to anyone before they tried things like Proactiv or Murad. And why not? Easy, cheap and affordable not to mention for most people it seems to be working! I'd say though that those who use it should get a good lotion or oil like Jojoba, Aloe Vera and even Olive Oil. I've also seen people mix a teaspoon of baking soda in a glass of water and drink it and this helping many problems such as the dreaded acne. Anyway I am very happy with this, I'm even thinking about going without foundation make up which I haven't done outside the privacy of my own home since I was 12!

Pros:

CHEAP WAY OF GETTING RID OF ACNE PROBLEMS WITH ALL NATURAL INGREDIENTS

Cons:

MIGHT DRY OUT THE SKIN BUT FOR THIS I PUT A LITTLE MILK INTO THE MIXTURE

HERE IS WHAT REALLY WORKS, I HAVE SEEN IT AND IT IS INCREDIBLE HOW FAST THE SKIN GETS CLEARED UP AND SOFT, IT WORKS LIKE A MIRACLE. WHAT IS THE MOST EFFECTIVE TO GET A HEALTHY LOOKING SKIN QUICK, IS: IN A CUP POUR HONEY, LEMON(EQUAL AMOUNTS)ADD GROUND CINNAMON, GROUND NUTMEG APPLY ON SKIN FOR AT LEAST 20 MINUTES(THE LONGER THE BETTER, SO OVERNIGHT IS IDEAL BUT MESSY!) THESE 4 TOGETHER ARE GREAT PIMPLE FIGHTERS THANKS TO THE ANTIOXIDANTS AND SKIN REPAIRING. RINSE OFF WITH WARM WATER AND MAKE SURE YOU USE A MOISTURIZING OIL FREE SOAP BAR OR FACIAL CLEANSER. DRY SKIN SECOND STEP:IN ANOTHER CUP MIX BAKING SODA, LEMON AND A LITTLE MILK, APPLY ON AFFECTED AREAS ALWAYS WITH COTTON BALLS COS FINGERS CARRY TOO MANY BACTERIAS, LEAVE ON UNTIL DRIES. THEN KEEP DRINKING A LOT OF WATER AND GREEN TEA IS EXCELLENT FOR SKIN AMONG THE COUNTLESS VIRTUES THIS HAS TO OFFER TO YOUR BODY AND HEALTH! THIS WORKS, TRY IT, YOU'LL BE AMAZED!

Pros:

Works GREAT for acne scars

Cons:

Doesn't really help with acne, burns like h***

I have a LOT of acne scars on my forehead and I noticed a big difference in acne scares. It burns really bad the first couple of times you use it, but I got use to it. Overall I'd recommend it for acne scars but not acne, cuz it didn't help me. I mixed it with a little hydrogen peroxide and an acne spot treatment with salicylic acid. Use it as a mask with a liquid or mix it with your face wash.
