Pros:

It leaves skin feeling clean and soft. Has a fresh scent.

Cons:

It only worked for about a week or so. My face started breaing out again.

Pros:

Feels great, smells great, and keeps my acne under control. The scrub is not too harsh and helps to exfoliate my skin.

This scrub is a lot like Neutrogena's other oil-free scrub except it contains cucumber, which is a nice addition.

Cons:

I guess I don't really get the name?

This scrub is a lot like Neutrogena's Oil-Free Acne Wash Daily Scrub, except that it contains cucumber, which is a nice addition. Other than that, the ingredients are almost identical. The Stress Control Scrub softens my skin, leaving it oil-free all day. It also keeps my skin hydrated and comfortable, unlike other creams and scrubs that tend to leave it dry. I use it every day in the shower and I wouldn't trade it for any other product on the market.

Pros:

My skin feels very soft and my acne has virtually disappeared.

Cons:

None. Except i wish it came w/o scent- on principle. We need less perfume in our lives, not more. I do find the scent pleasing though.

I have had a lot of acne since I was 13 and used Retin A since I was 20. But I always had acne - EVERY day. I've tried antibiotic on occasion, but fear them as I am a microbiologist by training. Since I turned 40, I've been getting deeper cysts that may not come out and can be painful. Tried Neutrogena Advanced Solutions and giving up Retin A for a few years.... About the same. At 45, I feel my skin scars more and much longer. I just hated my skin. But within the WEEK of starting this Stress Control scrub, my acne virtually disappeared. I can barely believe it. I've been using it 1.5-2 mos. This is the best my skin has looked - breakout wise- since I used Accutane in my late 20s. I might try to give up the retin a again. I think I will get wrinkly, but I also worry about my telomeres since they must be shorter on my face than the rest of my body.
