Pros:

Zaps pimples quickly (not as quickly as lavender oil!)

Cons:

Damages skin

Ok people, everyone, please use this on your skin at your own risk. I am in my early 20s and have normal skin with occasional breakouts, so I thought I would give this a try. It worked ok, but it was not worth what it has done to my skin. I have nice complexion, except for light patches caused by using this stuff a couple of weeks ago. It's not noticeable to anyone else, (I think) but I can see it up close and that is NOT ok. I am afraid of how long it will stay. It could be worse for someone else, who knows, and obviously it works fine for others. Bottom line is that there are so many other cheap natural remedies for pimples (decaf green tea bags are cheap and very effective for me) try those first. This is a great website to do research. USE THIS STUFF AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Pros:

lightens scars, on OLD scars only

Cons:

Destroys new skin cells that are growing to heal the scar, thus the scar forms.

There may be an initial bubbling which seems like something good is happening, BUT ITS NOT. It causes a scab to form, and it also destroys new cells which are being made to heal the scar, and a scar is made. I would recommend that when there is a scrape, pimple burst, etc. that you moisturize, put honey OR aloe vera to promote cell healing, and cover it with a bandage, it prevents a scar from being formed.

Pros:

quick to get rid of acne/whiteheads

Cons:

get horrible rash around that spot the next day

I'm thinking that it doesn't work for some people, such as myself. Its oxygenating property seems to help remove acne, but my face doesn't react so well to it afterward :( I tried spot-testing it several times, but still got a rash every single time...so I know its not right for me.
