Pros:

Very cheap to use and does the job

Cons:

very very drying

Still love it for evening mask. I have not just washed my face with it, but it does clear up the pimples that I have. IT seems to exfoliate very well on me and leaves my skin soft and youthful. Absolutely love it.

I will wait for the results
I have used baking soda 3 times. My recipe: one tsp baking soda, 2 tsp lemon juices, 2 drop of tea tree oil, 3 tsp water, mix them and apply all my face, it makes me break out on the forehead so much. Second time, I use them on only my scar areas and i can see some red scars was lighten. and the last( last night), I use and don't see the improvement I will wait for the results in next 2-3 months (because my scars were long time ago: > 10 years).

Awesome method
I love this method. FYI don't use it too often (once a week)or keep it on too long (30-45secs). I also use tea tree oil as a moisturizer which is helping with the blemish marks.

Pros:

-Cheap

Cons:

-Didn't seem to help acne
-Very harsh on the skin (it's so abrasive)
-Extremely drying
-Doesn't feel good

This might work if you don't have many active pimples, but I do, and it was just too harsh for my breaking-out skin. It ended up making my face all dry and red, and then my skin had to heal the actively inflamed areas. Maybe it would be better if you used it with something else to lessen the abrasiveness.

Pros:

-mask dries quickly
-face feels clean
-makes whitehead come to surface
-takes away unwanted oil
-inexpensive and easy to use

Cons:

-dries out skin if you use it too much
-creates redness

I use baking soda in mask form and it works alright for me! It does make my pimples a little more noticeable sometimes but the baking soda stops the pimple in its tracks. Make sure you get the right consistency so it's not too watery. I like this product but only every so often. Not everyday! Way to harsh for that.

Pros:

Cheap & easy
Makes pores vanish

Cons:

Not as good as I'd hoped!

Most people keep talking about how they got immediate results, or how their skin felt really smooth afterwards . . . honestly, I've been using it for a few weeks, and the only improvement I've noticed is that it makes my pores much smaller and helps shrink some pimples. But the pore-shrinking only lasts a few hours at most, and the pimples take so long to vanish that I'm really not sure if it's the baking soda or just time. However, my skin is actually pretty good, so maybe you just need more severe acne to see results. I'd recommend it on the sole basis that a lot of people did see results, though I didn't.

Pros:

Easy to make
Easy to find
Cheap

Cons:

Burns and stings
Left my skin itchy
Made my spots more red
Leaves skin dry.

First time I tried it it burned my skin a lot. But my skin adjusted to it and it worked for about 3 days, but then it stopped working. Might work for you though!
