Pros:

This stuff is wonderful!!! My skin has not looked this good since before my acne first started. I've noticed a change in the texture of my skin--it went from super oily to normal. It does not dry my skin out too much--it's perfect.

Cons:

It does flake a lot.

I recommend baking soda and water to every one out there who has any problem with acne. I just found out this secret from someone, and it's the best-kept secret. Don't waste your money on all those acne products that don't work or irritate your skin, like Proactiv. Benzyol Peroxide is very irritating also, and salicylic acid does absolutely nothing. This is a great, cheap product, and I am lucky I discovered it. This is the natural, chemical-free product that works very well. The acne companies would be furious if they knew we all know this secret, because they will be getting no more business.

Pros:

This is amazing! I have lived with this for almost my whole life - you MUST be consistent for cystic or sever acne it may take longer but be consistent. It has made a huge difference. It has even stopped new acne from starting! Amazing results

Cons:

None - I had very little burning.

Its all about keeping your skin clean and having a routine. You must be consistent other wise efforts go to waste. I mix it up as well, I wash with the baking soda and water every day and then twice a week I mask for 20 minutes. Persistence will pay off. For the non-believers there's nothing to lose... I am a believer.

Pros:

i have been using baking soda for i day and i have noticed that all the red spots that i used to have from trying to pop pimples are no longer on my face. and all the really small pimples have disappeared. and it fells great.

Cons:

i have read many things that people have put in this and they say it burns/stings. but im 12 and it never did that to me. i dont have acne really bad but i would like to get rid of most or all of it.

im 12, and we all have a crushes and so on. so all of u kno what its lik to lik a guy/girl and not want them to see ur acne. its imbarrasing. and it feels amazing to have smooth fresh skin. i myself have used many face creams and all that. THEY DONT WORK. u waste ur money on things that make ur face break out even more and way worse than what it did to start with. and for ur info proative doesnt work. my mom has used it for so many years. it dosent make a dif. and if u stop using for even a week it comes back really fast and worse than ever. she has wasted so much money. she finally stop in '07. and i wanted to try it. it works for a small period of time but it comes right back. DONT USE PROACTIVE. its just lik all of the other scames on the TV or computer u see. and the same thing with all those advertisments that give u a week trail of food that let u eat what u want without getting fat.

Pros:

It's extremely cheap compared to all the products I've bought and have had little to no results with. I know exactly what's going on my face, no surprise chemicals that make things worse in the end. Plus, it takes no time at all to whip up this paste

Cons:

If you're like me and have used numerous products for your stubborn acne, then you've found your face burning/stinging at some point. There's no difference here so don't be worried about the pain of it, you've already experienced it before

After years of using product after product that just doesn't give me the WOW result I pay for, I thought I'd just be subject to continual acne and would be a slave to continual applications of concealer (which turns cakey no matter what). My fiance has perfectly clear skin and it's embarrassing for me to have him get too close to my face at times. That and I'm always worried about hugging/kissing him since my makeup invariable wipes off on him. After simple combining one TBS. and enough water to make a thick paste, using it as an exfoliator after washing (GENTLY), rinsing it off (GENTLY), and moisturizing I saw incredible results the next morning. Pimples that have remained as huge bumps for weeks have gone down dramatically and my skin is incredible soft. I plan on continuing to use this coupled with Burt's Bees earth/skin friendly products and hopefully for my wedding day, all my fiance will see is my clear and bright skin glowing through with no major make-up blocking it!
