Pros:

It clears my skin, moisturizes my dry areas ( I have combo skin) and is incredibly easy to use! VERY affordable. Available for EVERY type of skin!!!

Cons:

My nose is still left shiny after washing (i'm using the one for combo skin which claims to take off oil) It doesn't take off makeup very effectively.

This product is amazing. It really makes my skin soft, and incredibly clear. Whenever I wander off to another product, you can tell! My face looks dull, dry and oily and my acne either doesn't improve or gets worse. So then I come back to this and the next day I'm back to almost clear skin. The cons of this product are easily fixed. I just apply mineral powder to my shiny areas and it absorbs the oil and I use Nivea Refreshing Toner which takes off my makeup. And at 11.00 for a 500 ml bottle which will probably last you like a year, it is EXTREMELY affordable.

Pros:

Okay price
Not much smell
Very gentle
Didn't make me break out

Cons:

Doesn't remove makeup
Doesn't seem to do much to my skin
Doesn't feel clean after it
Didn't clear my skin

It is extremely gentle, but it doesn't feel clean. I've been using this product for over a year already. I can't seem to find any other products that suits my skin, but I am still on this product. I don't like it much because it doesn't make me feel clean or makes me feel that it changes my skin much. I would recommend it to people that have light acne, because it really doesn't seem to do much to the skin and I don't even feel clean (sometimes I have to wash my face twice to get the fresh skin feeling).

Pros:

Moisturizing, my face did not get dry and flaky.

Cons:

Made little red dots pop up on my face within a couple days, made my pores look huge, filled up, and more pronounced.

This is pretty awful. I have super, super sensitive dry skin, and this really didn't work for me.

Pros:

very gentle
bottle lasts

Cons:

too gentle/does not clean well
absolutely no lather
does not remove makeup at all

I decided to give the spectro acne care line a try. My face did not respond negativaly or positivaly. Absolutely nothing happened to my face. For me, I really needed something with a creamy lather and i need a makeup removing cleanser. this product was definatly not for me.

Pros:

-Gets rid of acne fast; one or two days

-Reduces size of pimples, acne fast.

Cons:

-It doesn't have a very appeling smell

-Got rid of the acne/pimples, but it didn't really get rid of the red spots

-I am lazy so I don't really wash my face on the weekends, and when I don't I tend to breakout

I would recomend this product for people who have the time/take the time to wash their face twice a day, and those who don't have sensitive skin - I have sensitive skin. ):

I have sensitive skin with light acne.My sister reccomended spectro jel to me but I found that it did nothing for my skin at all.I switched to cetaphil.Cetaphil is for sensitive skin as well but smells great is at a reasonable price and i actually noticed my skin getting clearer with cetaphil.Do not waste your money on Spectro Jel , go for CETAPHIL!
