Pros:

smells awesome, clears up pimples, improves skin texture

Cons:

hard to squeeze product out of the tube

i love this thing! after reading all the awesome reviews, i decided to buy it for myself! after just one use, it made my skin super smooth and my pimples much smaller! gosh. i was sooo happy! first i wash with Aveeno Clear Complexion bar (or use the daily cleansing pads) then i use the mask, leave it on for 20 min. Then I use Dickinson's daily facial toner in witch hazel. then i moisturize with Neutrogena Visibly Even moisturizer. my skin has never looked soooo good! i can wear my hair back without feeling self conscious about my acne. also, i'm super happy about how incredibly cheap it is! i don't have to spend tons of money on face masks anymore. Before, i was using stupid ass Proactive Refining Mask. that thing sucks! it left burns all over my face!

Pros:

Feels really good going on, smells nice (but not if you have mint), and leaves skin feeling baby-soft after it's been washed off. I've never gotten dry skin from it, but I guess that depends on the person.

Cons:

You look pretty scary after it's all dried. The mask develops a thousand little cracks and you end up resembling a swamp monster. That is not really a con, though.

It works as a spot treatment for some, and I do use it every night on pimples because it's non-irritating. Zits don't seem to get bigger, but will not shrink significantly if they're large or inflamed. Small whiteheads are zapped almost overnight, or at least sucked dry. Don't expect your acne to disappear from using this product. It may, it may not. BUT! It's a fantastic mask and so worth it at about $4. I hate endorsing anything when I'm not being paid for it, but this stuff rules. Skin texture is noticeably improved, and feels soft and clean. Don't waste your money on those $30 masks when you can use this stuff.

Feels like a new face
My face feels new after using this. I do it once a week every Sunday night but I think you could use more often you wanted to.

My favorite mask
I love this mask!! It really purifies your skin and leaves it looking brighter. I've been using this product for at least 10 years. I would recommend this mask to anyone with problem skin. The price is an added bonus.

did nothing for me
This product did nothing for me! It doesn't tighten my pores or do a thing for my complexion. It's not even usable! I will stick to my holy grail - Clinique Emergency Mask

Not for me
Made my skin even oilier? And I noticed more pimples popping up after 2 times of using it. Also it STUNG when I first put it on. I wanted to like it because I liked the way my skin looked and felt afterwards, but it didn't last. But at least I finally know it's not for me bc I've been eyeing this mask at Walmart for months contemplating on buying it. I would recommend at least trying it out, it might work for you.

That's what a mask does is pull stuff to the surface

Really do recommend this (:
I've used this for a couple of years now and love it. It pulls out impurities and oil and you can actually see where impurities are pulled from your skin once it's dry. my skin is always smooth and redness reduced, if i ever have random flare ups i use tgis as a spot treatment to dry it out usual ill spot treat twice a day in those cases. After many others experience and my own I've determined that some acne face washes with salicylic acid and the like could cause this mask to burn slightly when applied after. Personally I use clean and clear daily pore cleanser which doesnt have that but over time there is a HUGE improvement in the long term clearness of my skin. For those who've tried it and broken out there's a chance that you're not rinsing your face well enough after using the mask. It pulls out impurities and if you don't rinse everything off thoroughly you're most likely leaving those impurities on the surface of your skin causeing the sudden breakouts. It's just a thought, it could hust might be that this WONT work for you too.
