Pros:

Very cheap, easy to use and left my skin feeling very smooth.

Cons:

Burned like crazy!! I couldn't leave it on for more than a few minutes and I was scrambling to get it off my skin. Maybe I am allergic?

Left my skin feeling smooth and exfoliated, but also very red and irritated. I wish I could leave it on longer, but it just hurt too bad.

Pros:

feels great, like it's really cleaning your face

Cons:

broke me out like crazy! my skin was almost clear when I decided to try this mask out and it just made it worse. I waited a week and a half to see if it'll clear up and I threw away half of the bottle because I did not want my skin to get worse.

I thought it was working in the beginning, but as the days went on and I continued using this mask, my skin just got much worse. Didn't work for me at all, but I really hoped it would. :(

Over hyped
Used religiously and resulted in a temporary reduction of oil, but no benefits other than that. No doubt that this product has worked for others, but if you have acne that's worse than mild, I'd wager this probably won't do the job. I'd recommend the Ancient Aztec Clay, which is only a few bucks more expensive.

Pros:

Smells good
Feels cool to wear
Face feels clean after

Cons:

Broke me out!
hard to get off

I think i may be allergic to something in it. My skin is sensitive and I usually get a couple of pimpes aroung my nose and chin area, but this made my entire face break out. I'll prabably give it away. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone with sensitive skin.

Pros:

Cheap
Temporarily dries your skin and closes your pores

Cons:

Skin broke out more afterwards
Tightening of skin is temporary

I have used this product in several ways. I have tried the entire mask. I have also used this as an on-the-spot treatment. Although it does tighten the skin, close pores, and draw out impurities (my pimples would dry out faster) I found that MORE pimples would form underneath. So as soon as one was gone, another was already forming. I am still searching for something. I guess if you are looking for something short-term and you don't have severe acne, this MIGHT work for you.

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

Pros:

Cheap
Big

Cons:

The color
Hard to take off after drying
Doesn't really do much for the acne.

I guess it's just me that doesn't really like this product. I bought this one to use it once or twice a week as a facial mask. After using this for a month, i noticed absolutely no difference. I guess it works for other people

Pros:

looks fresher
redness reduce

Cons:

causes breakouts
does not get rid of the larger under the skin pimples, but the small ones (about 3 days)
do not use this as a spot treatment overnight. use it very sparingly!

When I used it as a facial (over entire face) my skin looked fresher and the redness was reduced. It created the illusion that my skin was better, because the next day it looked the way it had before. So, I decided to use it overnight as a spot trearment. I did that for three days and guess what? I broke out like crazy. These small miniature pimples are all over the place wherever I used it as a spot treatment. It could be the the cream getting rid of the dirt so I had a reaction,but I doubt it. My skin was so much smoother and now I have about 20-30 of these small red pimples all over the place. I don't want them to get bigger, but they might. So, dont use this as a spot treatment because it barely does anything except make you look fresher.

Pros:

helped dry out zits that are almost healed

Cons:

strong odor, doesn't smooth onto skin nicely, made acne worse and caused more zits and whiteheads

this product did not deliver good results for me at all i'd rather spend a few extra bucks on something that is actually effective
