Pros:

-Clears all blackheads on nose
-Shrinks and ultimately eliminates existing acne
-Does not dry out skin

Cons:

-Does not clear blackheads on chin

I absolutely love this product. My skin is freaky: regular Cetaphil dries it out to the point of uncontrollable flaking, but after I use this product I barely need a moisturizer. I think it is because it does not contain sodium laureth sulfates...the super drying ingredient that gives Cetaphil it's foamy lather. In order for this product to work, this is how you should use it!!! : Instead of wetting your face, scrubbing for twenty seconds, and rinsing, wet your face and massage in the cleanser, and then leave it to dry for about ten minutes. Then rinse it off. As long as your skin is not sensitive, this should work wonders because it is given time to actually penetrate the pores. I have no zits and few blackheads after using this product!

Pros:

Smells good
Helps mimize blackheads
easy to use

Cons:

Doesn't remove all

I really liked this. I have continued using this since the day I bought it. It helps remove some of the blackheads and it smells so good. It doesn't remove all of it but the results are pretty good.I noticed many of my blackhead appear lesser and it works each day. I definitly recommend it!

Pros:

Nuthin' O_O

Cons:

*waste of money,time and energy.

Not much I can say really. The beads didn't feel like they were ex-foliating my nose at all! Honestly, I really did get excited when it said "results from day 1" but really nothing happened T_T. If you want your blackheads to improve I would suggest a more reliable product. Now "shoo" and go find something else that you wont waste your money on.

Pros:

-Exfoliates nicely, leaves skin soft and smooth
-Smell (smells like a strawberry banana smoothie to me :))
-not too harsh on the skin

Cons:

-Doesn't completely eliminate blackheads, just minimized the severity
-Doesn't do much for acne if used just by itself
-The beads definitely do get annoying. My skin is now COVERED in them!

I use this in conjunction with Clean&clear continuous control (Botchla's Regimen) and the combination of the two have saved my life! However, this product by itself is just alright. It does make skin super smooth and clean, but doesn't really "eliminate" blackheads like it says it does. If you are using this product and aren't really seeing results as far as acne goes, trying adding in a benzoyl peroxide cleanser/gel to your routine. Increases the effectiveness of both products and the two have done wonders for my skin :)

Pros:

- Makes your skin soft and smooth.
- Smells good.
- Easy to use.
- Doesn't break me out.
- Makes blackheads smaller and less noticeable.
- Affordable

Cons:

- Does not eliminate blackheads.
- Microbeads can get into your hair, eyes etc.
- A bit too abrasive.

This daily scrub was very useful by making my blackheads smaller and less noticeable but it did not eliminate blackheads. It says on the bottle, "Results from Day 1" but I could not see results before 2 months of using the product. The scrub can also be very abrasive due to the large amount of microbeads so you must be use a very gentle circular motion to exfoliate your face. In conclusion, a decent product.

Pros:

-Smells good

Cons:

-doesn't get rid of ALL blackheads

I actually use this as MY Clarisonic. I just bout a cheap-o electric toothbrush and take about the same amount that you would normally use if you were to scrub your face with your hands but instead I use a toothbrush. I find that it gets even deeper into your skin lifting the dirt and oils more than it would if you were to just use your hands. For me, it's the same thing as the Clarisonic but I'm just using a different scrub and the brush is smaller. Even though it doesn't get rid of all blackheads, my skin has noticeably gotten clearer within a few weeks of use. I had a few systic acne bumps on each cheek and blackheads along my cheek bones and after those two weeks the acne bumps have decreased, meaning flattened out and are almost gone, and my blackheads are clearing up. My skin is really smooth too!
