Pros:

It leaves my skin oil free and soft. Gets rid of my pimples. I use this product daily and it doesn't irritate my skin. I've been using this product for about 6 years now and nothing works better.

No matter what, I've always come back to this product and it works every time!

Pros:

It cleared me up in like a week.

Cons:

It isn't all gone just little bumps (nothing I can't cover up with makeup).

I have been using this for like 2 weeks now and it is working really well. I get the occasional pimples but nothing out of the ordinary.

Pros:

It feels really good on our skin. Very invigorating. I use it just in the morning and it controls the oiliness of my skin very well.

Cons:

It makes my skin read a while after I wash it. Also inflames my blemishes and any little things on my face that may not be 100% even with my skin tone. But after5 or 10 minutes, my skin looks very good and is soft.

I like this product a lot. I just wish it would cer my blemishes 100%.

Pros:

I really liked how it smelled, and the beads did not hurt me ata ALL. My skin is very acne prone,and as soon as a week passed after using this, my skin felt better. Really. It did.

Cons:

If you don't wet your face beforehand, it sortof tugsonyourskin, but since I only had that happen once, it's not a bigproblem for me.

This product is wonderful. I have a lot of acne, and this really helped clear it up. I love love love this product. Itmay take abouta week or two before you notice results, but once they do come, they REALLY kick in! BUT if you have sensitive skin, then I don't recommend this product. My skin is pretty tough, so it can handle anything. You really feel the product cleansing, andonce you wash*t off, you feel clean and your skinis soft because all the dead skin cells are gone and exfoliated off. I would DEFINITELY recommend it to anyone.

Pros:

Smells great, doesn't dry out skin, and makes my skin feel smooth and less oily.

Cons:

Stop working after a while. I think it's better to take a break for 2 days every week.

I like it a lot. I just wish it could work all the time, but pimples come back, so I take a break and use it again in about 2-3 days.

Pros:

leaves skin amazingly soft & smooth. smells good. cheap. scrubs away dead skin. gives a nice glowy complexion.

Cons:

can be quiet harsh if used incorrectly. use VERY gentle circular motions!!

It is the best exfoliation for oily and acne prone skin. This is better than the Invigorating one. It makes your face so much softer! I was amazed at the results. This is definitely a must-have in my skin care routine.

Pros:

it feels really nice on your skin.. so it doesn't aggravate my red marks by making it redder.. seems to be helping with my whiteheadss :]

Cons:

should use makeup remover before if you use makeup..~

I've tried..proactive.. neutrogena..olay acne scrub..biore..regular soap.. all kinds of things but i think this one is the best because it feels like its exfoliating my skin but yet very gently.. i also use neutrogena acne mark peel 3-5 times a week n it seems to be helping a lot with my blemishs and acne marks~!
