Pros:

-Cleans pores
-Clears blackheads
-Makes my face feel/smell good
-Great as both mask/cleanser

Cons:

-Dries skin

This is a really good product. It hasn't dried my skin as much as others have, but I still use a moisturizer at night. It has eliminated all of the little persistent clogged pores on my face and actually cleared out many of my blackheads as well. I highly recommend, if I could give 4 1/2 stars than I would.

Pros:

feels great on my skin, smells great, dries up my acne, controls oil, minimizes my pores, makes my skin feel smooth.

Cons:

i wish it came in a bigger package/tube.

it's great for people with moderate acne, like myself. definitely isn't for people with sensitive dry skin. it's active ingredient is benzoyl peroxide which is great for treating acne but can dry out your skin a little bit. if you have oily skin and large pores like me, you will probably like this product. if you have sensitive dry skin with light acne you might want to opt for a less potent product that does not contain benzoyl peroxide or not as much benzoyl peroxide as this product. maybe you should try something with salicylic acid or herbal ingredients. but overall, this product is great and works wonders for me!

Pros:

Skin felt softer

Cons:

Dryness

This did not improve my acne at all, and I used it as both a cleanser and a mask. I was disappointed because I had a lot of luck the first time I tried the regimen, so I thought this would work as well. After a few weeks, I discontinued use. My skin felt dry and tight. I know a few people who have had good results from it, though.

Pros:

It really lives up to its name because is actually clears out your pores and it leaves your face nice and clear with a great complexion

Cons:

None what so ever

Thisis the best product ever I swear this stuff works overnight!!! It has a great tingly feeling and it really leaves your skin feeling nice and fresh and just beautiful!! I have sensitive oily skin and this works great! If I had dry skin it might be to harsh for me, but since I don't this is perfect. Also when I feel like my face is super oily and just feels gross and dirty I use it as a mask and leave in on for about 5 to 10 minutes then I rinse it off and then use the neutrogena clear pore daily scrub(yep they finally came out with a scrub). I probably use it as a mask once a week. I have been using this product for some months now it hasn't been a year yet and I love it! Usually I'm always trying new face products but now I finally found one that I can stick with! Thank you lord!

Pros:

Very cheap
Greatly reduces acne

Cons:

A little drying

I have very light, sensitive skin that is very prone to acne, especially if I wear concealer or blush. I have used so many other products in my lifetime and none of them ever proved to make much of a difference. My acne liked to stay put on my face for longer periods of time than normal people. This product reinstated my faith in topical combatants for acne. It's smooth to apply, leaves the skin feeling fresh, and though it does not totally eliminate all acne, it greatly reduces the sizes of blemishes and their lifespan. I'm now almost a month into using it and I only have a few pimples--nothing I can't conceal with a dab of makeup. It is a bit drying so I use Neutrogena's exfoliant with it, but it's definitely the cleanser mask that's making the difference. My dermatologist recommended it to me and said it worked for her clients better than most prescription medications. And it did!

Pros:

-Shrinks zits by the next day
-The face looks less oily (temporarily) and has less blackheads
-Gives a really clean "stripped" feeling; like your pores were just competely cleansed

Cons:

-Dries up your face a lot which can make it compensate the next day with lots of oil. This is why I only use it at night when I'm having a particularly clogged up pores day.

I use it occasionally as a mask when my skin isn't looking so great and it usually straightens things up. All the blackhead gunk in my nose pores is either gone or has been so reduced that they are no longer black. This is sort of gross, but to give you an example, when I squeeze the skin on my nose a ton of gunk comes out from every pore. If I use this product for 5 minutes (letting it dry) I hardly get any gunk when I squeeze. I also sometimes use it as a spot treatment on the bigger zits but be careful or you can really fry the skin.

Pros:

Dries up existing pimples fast
Cooling sensation

Cons:

Not ideal for daily wash
Doesn't prevent new pimples from forming

This product is good as a mask or for spot treatment only. When I have an existing pimple, this product dries it up fast. I will usually leave it on for an hour or more. As a daily wash, I find it too thick and drying. I prefer something mild that lathers well with no oils, soap or alcohol (i.e.: Neutrogena Foaming Face Wash)
