Pros:

Very cheap!! Works wonders!

Cons:

Kinda hard to squeeze the last litte bit out of the bottle.

This product is great! It shrinks my pores and dries up my acne! I'd recommend this to anyone!

Pros:

I have bought this about 2 weeks ago and my black heads are gone!!! my pores that were large are now gone!!! I can actually put my hair up and not feel like people are staring at my acne!!!

Cons:

I wish that I knew about this stuff 6 years ago...

I have tried creams from my doctor, Proactive and Nutrogena. they worked for the first week or so. then they stopped working. I have combination skin and in 4 days my face was completely different. I can now get close up to the mirror and not see black heads or pores. this stuff is awesome for spot treatment too! I had a pimple last night and this morning it was gone!

Pros:

- helps to prevent break outs.
- mint smell is refreshing!

Cons:

- feels really dry, even after washing the mask off. (moisturizer is a must after washing this mask off)
- packaging could be better... i have a hard time squeezing it out sometimes

it's cheap, it works well enough. it doesn't prevent my break outs 100%, but it does make a difference. i use this about 2-3 times a week. it doesn't do much with redness, but it does get the bumps swelling down by a lot. i would not recommend this to people with sensitive skin, but if you're skin can handle such a drying product, by all means, this is one of the best masks!

Pros:

Works great for clearing blackheads.

Cons:

Didnt see a big improvement in acne(pimples).

This product works pretty good and is very affordable.

Pros:

If left on for a short amount of time (I personally prefer less than the recommended 15 min), this mask will tighten and smooth the skin, draw out facial oil, loosen blackheads, and shrink/dry most acne. The smell reminds me of chewing gum. :)

Cons:

Can be drying if left on for too long. Also, I don't see any huge difference in the size of my pores, only a difference in their texture. In my experience, it's not great with cystic acne... it tends to aggravate if the acne is especially bad.

Give it a shot. Like any proper mask with sulfur as its primary ingredient, it's specifically designed to extract the gunk from your pores-- which can only be a good thing! A word of advice: if you're having trouble using the squeeze tube, Sally's Beauty Supply sells the same product in a tub for scooping. Whatever floats your boat.

Pros:

Removes excess oil.
Gets rid of some blackheads.
Shrinks large pores.

Cons:

Doesn't help with pimples.

I use this face mask whenever my face looks very oily, and my pores look huge, and it works great for that. Don't expect this facial mask to help reduce pimple size, it won't do it.

Pros:

-gets rid of oil
-cooling and refreshing feeling

Cons:

-dries out skin
-doesn't clear acne very well

I use this product once a week and will continue to. I used to use this product every day, but it dried out my skin badly so I switched to weekly. This product draws the impurities from your skin, and I know it cleans out some of the toxins. I will continue to use this product, and I hope it keeps my skin clear!

Pros:

cleans out your pores, makes you skin feel tighter and a deep down clean! USE A wash cloth to really get all that gunk out

Cons:

Stinging for a bit and you better moisturize after removing the mask

will it completely clear your acne i doubt but its a great masque to use weekly and keep your pores clean

Pros:

It makes your skin so soft after you have used it, I have only used it twice so far and already I can see the blackheads I used to have reducing in size. The minty smell is nice :)
I got the 12oz container for $5.99 Canadian.

Cons:

if you put too thick of a layer on, it tingles/stings a lot (for me anyways) and when I wash it off it smells like a mixture of pee and tea. (weird description, I know lol)

For the price, this stuff is amazing. It works so well and actually does what it says it will. Dry up pimples and shrink enlarged pores. I love it. Of course that won't be the case for everyone, but it seems to be for the majority. It's all about skin type!

Pros:

It minimized my pores and it helps to stop the redness of pimples and dries it up quickly.I have tried Proactiv but that didn't work. Mint julep masque worked better and faster.

Cons:

none

It's cheap but it works wonders.
