judging by the comments left on the boards, i suggest to only use garlic for heavy duty pimples. if you hav a light severity of pimples use a type of cream or eat properly and drink plenty of water. garlic does smell horrible and if you leave it on your face long enough will leave a burn mark. BE CAREFUL!

Pros:

i love garlic and could it eat it every day

Cons:

BUT i carnt eat it because it gives me HUGE Spots or more like boils that are really really sore, so i would not recommend using loads, try a little first.

I read somewhere that it was good so i ate loads and put some on my skin, Well what a fine mess that got me into, it may be good for some people but very bad for me. I am 36 year old female and always suffered, ive searched andsearched for an answer and for me I have to cut out lots of food e.g. Cheese, garlic, milk , butter margarine ( i use sunflower but pure soya one is better) tinned tomatoe's tinned soups, peanut butter I have recently read that alkalining your diet helps as its too much acid in your food that courses acne, This is what i am doing now, its hard but i can see results already, and the most delicous find is PURE ALMOND BUTTER (ORGANIC ) wow no other ingredients apart from 0.05% salt mmmmm yummy a little price at £2.45 but the taste is amazing and its all good for your skin vitamin E

Pros:

Garlic wont cure your acne on its own, but it helps. Ive been taking some odorless garlic capsules for the past while and notice a slight improvement. Consistency is the key, keep taking them! Consume internally, don't apply it on your skin. Its chea

Cons:

That you have to buy it in capsule form to avoid the smell, and it costs more then buying garlic by itself in a supermarket.

Worth a shot IN CONJUNCTION with other products. Give it some time to work. Do not apply on your skin or you may get a horrible reaction, eat it!

Pros:

...nothing really.

Cons:

Funky odor!

This stuff REALLY works. Sure it might sting a little, & make your face stink like crap a few days. & your skin might begin to dry up & look like a permanet black mark, it'll work. so instead of applying it, consume it. It worked for me, if your skin is left with acne scars apply, a mixture of viegar & salt & rub on pimples. Leave for 10-20 minutes before removing with Luke warm water, TRUST me..this stuff really works!

Pros:

Used it topically and it is really good at reducing redness and suckin the crap out of your skin. used it three times and i was fine

Cons:

Used it last night and i left it on my spots like a mask all night. Now i have some sort of dirty pussy burn that am now trying to heal by dabbing salt water

If you don't use it too long you will be fine. Probably better of taking it orally than anything else. If you do use it topically leave it to soak in vinegar first then apply them both. works better.
