Pros:

*smells nice
*beads not too harsh
*Exfoliates well
*gets rid of pimples

Cons:

*Did not get rid of blackheads

This is a great product to use every other day for exfoliation. It does remove pimples and light acne. The only downside being that it did not remove the blackhead which it claimed it would. Having said that, i do feel its a great product and i have been using it for a year and definitly consider it to be something that i would not change. I recommend it to anyone who has light to moderate acne and wishes to have a scrub that would leave skin feeling fresh and soft.

Pros:

Cleans skin, Gets of pimples, smells great

Cons:

Rough scrub

I bought the travel size bottle for vacation that lasted for 1 month and a half and this invigorating scrub works great! I just bought the huge bottle for only 4 bucks at Walgreens. I would definitely get this again. Plus my acne is really bad.

Pros:

Smells nice
Not too harsh on the skin

Cons:

Makes my skin a bit red
Gives me more spots sometimes

Out of all the scrubs ive used this has been the one that dosen't make me break out so badly. I only use it once every week roughly though otherwise it would be too much for my skin.

Pros:

•Makes your skin very soft.
•Clears up freckles

Cons:

•Gives you some pimples if you have normal or oily skin

Use it only if you have dry skin. It feels like a mostrizers. Do not use it if you have normal or oily skin. It feels very good. Gives you very soft skin.

Pros:

It improves everything, really. Whether your problem is blackheads,whiteheads,or just uneven texture this works.

Cons:

Not really a con, but something people do which is completely wrong is use this product more than once a week. That's why you have all the negative reviews here. =]

AS LONG as it's used once on a weekly basis, it works. Worked, i mean it's working for me. =]

Pros:

smoothes skin, removes dead skin

Cons:

Increases oil production

I use it once a day before my panoxyl. I've had acne for years and it hasn't given me much trouble.

Pros:

makes my skin super soft!!!
smells great!!!
was pretty cheap!

Cons:

i heard it makes microscopic tears in your skin which creates wrinkles

I love this product because it makes my skin feel amazing and smooth!!! I love the smell of it because it smells so fresh and clean!!!! I used it before and it sort of cleared up some pimples, but i only use it once a week because its very drying!!! I looked at other reviews, websites, and dermatologist reviews and saw that they say that it makes microscopic tears in your skin which can then cause wrinkles later in life and will make you look older than you really are!!! So the bottom line is that i would recomend this if u only use it every 2 weeks or so.

Pros:

great for blackheads that are tough to reach like on your nose, skin feels so smooth after using, smells great and is very inexpensive, sold almost anywhere.

Cons:

I would not rely on this to clear up acne but it does a great job of exfoliating skin! Also, make sure you are not allergic to walnuts because if you read the ingredients on the back, walnut shavings are in it!

I would use this if I didn't really have bad acne but would like to get rid of a few blackheads here and there and to exfoliate dead skin cells that naturally build up,
