Pros:

It makes me feel so fresh & clean!! I actually feel like I am peeling a whole layer of dirt off my skin! I use it once before bed & once when I am back from college to get a day's worth of dirt off! I have mild acne and its certainly decreased.

Cons:

It turns my skin pretty dry, however , nothing a moisturizer can't solve. The scent isnt that great , but its just fine it will wear off in a while.

I never knew scrubs can be that good for the face. I highly reccomend it.

Pros:

This product is great even for my sensitive acne prone skin. After using this scrub my skin looks and feels healthy and has removed alot of dull surface skin.

Cons:

If you are gong to use this product daily like me, you have to be gentle!! Do not scrub too hard, let the natural exfoliants do the job rather than damage.

I suffer from whiteheads on my chin and blackheads on my nose area which sometimes get infected and turn into nasty pimples! However after adding this scrub to my routine i have found it has no negative effects, but has made my skin softer and smoother and ultimatly more healthy by removing alot of impurities. Just remember be gentle, you do not need to apply alot of pressure when the exfoliants are that big!

Pros:

It made my big pimple smaller over the night, on my first try using this product

Cons:

It takes a while for it to work.

Its an affordable price, and clears out your acne a bit. And makes your skin softer too.

Pros:

Inexpensive
Skin feels cleaner, smoother, and softer
Gives you a nice healthy glow

Cons:

Absolutely none.

I am in love with this product. It's wonderful for my skin. The new scent does not bother me at all, just as long as it does the job, I'm fine with it. The only thing is that the grainy texture can be a little rough on the skin, so I try not to scrub my face too hard, just gently massage it into my skin for 5 minutes and rinse away. Works well for all skin types, you just have to be gentle with how you use it.

Pros:

cheap, smells nice, large tube, gets rid of flakes

Cons:

wont get rid of acne

this is to be used in addition to acne treatments, and isnt an acne treatment itself. i use it before I use my acne cleanser, etc, to get rid of flakes and dead skin so that the treatments i use can work more effectively. leaves my skin smooth. Just dont go overboard with it and tear up your skin. Its a bit rough. does the trick for flakes, though
