Pros:

Very affordable, the best product I have ever used for my face hands down.

Cons:

Doesn't have a pretty bottle, wasn't in the same area as all the commercial face products, and doesn't have an artificial perfume smell (which to me doesn't really sound like cons).

In just two days it even out my skin texture on my face, The pharmacist recommended it to me for chapped skin around my mouth which occurred from switching face wash brands. This product went beyond balancing out my skins pH, it even started clearing up acne and acne scars. It made me realize that good stuff doesn't have to come in pretty packaging to work, because those products are the ones that cause the problems in the first place.

Pros:

Hmmm.....it's cheap?

Cons:

Doesn't clear acne, caused little bumps all around chin. Does not remove make up very well, cleanser dried my skin out quite a bit, moisturizer is too greasy and made me break out, products do not smell good.

It works for some I guess, but I didn't have any luck at all.

Pros:

gentle and cheap

Cons:

it doesn't work anymore

When I first started using this, my skin was amazing, well back then my skin rarely broke out. Now my skin's more acne prone an I feel like it's doing nothing! Plus the smell isn't bad after a while, you won't notice it.

Pros:

This was the first official cleanser I have ever used, and it felt really good on my skin. It was also good on the few pimples that I had had, and it has this relaxing cooling feeling to it.

Cons:

The smell, the packaging. It dried my skin out a bit unfortunately.

This is really good if you in puberty and are starting to get pimples. I used it at aged 12 and it was a really nice product to use. Just be sure to use a lot of moisturizer if your skin tends to dry.

Pros:

Makes skin feel extremely good and very soft. Helps for a brighter complexion, BUT FOR ONLY ONE WEEK.

Cons:

After one week of use (during which I loved it), it caused me to break out like crazy. I stopped using it and the pimples subsided, but when I started again, a lot of fine white-heads came up on my forehead, chin and jawline.

It did not work for me. I loved the way it made your skin feel - smoother than a baby's butt; but after one week I broke out (a lot of fine white-heads and a few red pimples). During the first week I used it consistently day and night. I tried it again three times in the coming month (meaning I just used it once in the morning) and got the same results. But the last time I tried it was the worst. It was the worst breakout I had ever (I've had acne for 3 years now), and I doubt that its an allergic reaction. I got around 7-10 full, red pimples on my chin/jawline, and the medication i was using (StayClear ® Vanishing Acne Treatment Cream - with sulfur and resorcinol) would normally dry up my pimples in 2 days, 5 days tops; but these stayed for around 2 weeks with no absolutely change. BOTTOM LINE: Try it, it might work great, but if it doesn't, don't go back and just try it to see if it works "this time 'round".

Pros:

clears skin! makes skin soft. Doesn't dry out your skin

Cons:

Can't think of any..well the smell could be better.

I've been using Spectro Jel ( purple bottle) For only three days and my skin is SOO much better! I really think this product may actually be a keeper! Its the only thing that Ive ever used that has been this effective. I LOVE IT! and I absolutely recommend it to anyone, my skin was never to bad to beggin with but it sure wasnt good. If youre thinking about getting Spectro I say go for it! you'll love it

Pros:

After just two days of using it my skin felt baby soft
Its so cheap to buy and so far doing way better than anything else ive bought!

Cons:

The smell is a little funky ( but only at first doesnt smell on the skin)

My skin is already feeling softer,smoother and clearer after a couple days! It is a good price and so worth it! (Purple Sensitive problem prone skin)

Pros:

Very gentle
it leaves skin very smooth and nice feeling

Cons:

the smell is kind of funny at first but you get used to it so fast it smells like nothing later on

okay so i had mild to moderate acne for at least 3 years and things were getting worse and worse since my pimples were growing faster than my red spots were fading but ever since i started using a cleanser like Spectrojel i only get 1 pimple every 2 weeks and the pimples that i get now are so small that it doesn't even matter anymore it looks like clear skin almost

Pros:

Big bottle, feels excellent on skin, does not foam, gentle

Cons:

Not sure how much it helps acne or pimples

I've just started using spectro jel products. I'm using the cleanser, 2.5% BP, and the moisturizer. So far so good. I'm pleased with these products so far.
