Pros:

1. It's cheap.
2. tightens pores, reduces size/visibility
3. produces more even skin texture. my face looks vibrant and refreshed and has a nice dewy glow that lasts about 2-3 days.
4. easy to apply, dries fast and is comfortable to wear for more than 15 minutes.
5. lasts a long time (6 months of bi weekly use).
6. last but not least! doesn't irritate my
sensitive skin. aka no redness/dryness.

Cons:

1. difficult to remove, i have to rub a lot sometimes which can make my skin red.
(but if i put less on it's much easier and has the same results)

a drugstore beauty product staple!! good for my skin and my wallet.

Pros:

Helps overall complexion
Dries out pimples
Nice smell

Cons:

A little drying
Funky color if you miss a spot washing it off
Hard to wash off completely

Using this before Accutane, it seemed to lower pimple size and lessen redness. It made my skin a little dry, but nothing moisturizer couldn't fix. Now that I'm on Accutane, I only use it as a spot treatment if I really need to because otherwise I think it would dry my skin too much. I wouldn't classify this as a miracle product, but it definitely helped!

Pros:

Tube lasts forever
Dries out pimples
Reduces redness
Tightens pores

Cons:

Can be kinda messy
Sometimes hard to get off

This is a great cheap little mask. I definitely tightens my pores and reduces the redness of my pimples. It also dries them out. I use it about once a week as a mask and on pimples that pop up

Pros:

-Smells Great
-Dries out any active pimples
-Tightens face
-Dries out very oily skin

Cons:

-Masque can be messy if not careful
-Can dry out skin if used too often

I have very oily skin, so much so that my skin will become oily 20 minutes after using a face wash. This is the only OTC product I've found that can dry out my skin for extended periods of time. I typically use the masque every other day because it will dry out even the most oily skin if used every day. I use this in combination with a 10% benzoyl peroxide wash from my dermatologist's office and I don't get major breakouts. The tube also lasts forever, just remember to put the cap on right after use because it will dry the cay out quickly and make it impossible to get out.

Pros:

It clears your pores.

Burns the first few minutes but it's nothing unbearable.
It smells really bad.

It draws the gunk from your pores. Give it a try.

Pros:

Smells nice
Lasts long
Tightens skin
Slightly clears blackheads
Makes skin 'glow'

Cons:

Doesn't help pimples
Not a huge impact

I originally used this once a month all over my face, however, I have very light acne so I realized it was only necessary on my nose and chin for blackheads. Using a very thin layer of the masque on my nose and chin helpedy blackheads disappear! Everyone is different though, ive tried so many things that work for other people but not myself. It's important not to use too thick of a layer and to use often and repeatedly for results. Good luck!

Pros:

nice scent
feels good on skin
leaves pores looking smaller (temporarily)
seems to work
very cheap

Cons:

can burn
dries out the skin

Obviously different people need different kinds of acne products. I would say that this is a good weapon to have, but not a product I would use exclusively to treat acne. It's really nice to use once a week, especially if you tend to get those nasty cyst pimples. If you have very dry skin, I would recommend not using this product more than once a week- it is rather drying (at least for me). I'm guessing if you had oily skin, you could use this a lot more often. I find that it leaves my skin looking healthier than it did before and does a pretty good job at reducing any redness. Again, I would recommend this product as an ADDITIONAL weapon, NOT for exclusive use. I would recommend it more for those with oily skin. Those that enjoy doing facial masks will absolutely love this!

Pros:

dries out pimples
it tightens the skin
after applying face is really smooth

Cons:

it dries out your skin,especially on the pimples that have been astracted

This is the best product I have used yet. Ive tried proactiv,and marykay and it didnt work to my liking.If you have dry skin I would not suggest.And if you have severe acne you really need patients or a dermatologist I use it at night also for a spot treatment and thats the best cause when I wake up either its gone or its alot smaller the pimples that is
