Pros:

-clears pimples
-reduces size of the pimple
-smells good
-feels good while using it

Cons:

-so far, none

This product has worked pretty well for me. I've been breaking our pretty bad recently. I had about ten pimples at once and they were really red and painful. I got this product and used it that night in the shower. The next morning, about 8 of those pimples had decreased in size and redness and the pain decreased too! I use this product with Stridex sensitive pads. When I get out of the shower, I let my face dry and use my stridex pads on my forehead. Works great!

Pros:

Soft skin, cooling effect was nice.

Cons:

Messy, and hard to get off of my clothes

Pretty good but my skin got use to it. But acne gets worse on the second week normally cause it's pulling out all the acne from your skin. So if you stay on it longer it might be better. But i didn't.

Pros:

Really nice smelling
Leaves no residue
Leaves skin feeling really fresh
Gentle
Gets rid of Redness

Cons:

I occasionally miss a few beads and find them in my hairline.

I had been experiencing a minor breakout while using Loreal Go 360 clean (the green one) and felt that It just wasn't quite doing enough. I decided to give this scrub a try. My breakout's gone away, and my skin's been looking a lot clearer. It has a really nice fresh scent and leaves my skin very soft. I had very minor redness before using this product, and the tiny bit of redness I did have has gone away. I intend to use this product for quite a while. It's great!

Pros:

This product really opens up your pores, and seemed to reduce a lot of the pimples I had. It also makes your skin softer.

Cons:

It takes awhile to really work, and is for not as severe acne.

They use a different acne treatment than proactive or some other products, proactive uses 5% Benzyol peroxide. This Neutrogena product only uses 2% Salicylic acid, and for me, benzyol peroxide is too harsh for my skin type, so Neutrogena works better for me. This is better for people who don't have severe acne. It may seem to take awhile to work but it does really control your breakouts and keep your skin soft and healthy.

Pros:

This product smells great, and really cleans my skin well. It helps get rid of all the dead skin, because of the microbeads in it, but doesn't clog pores.

Cons:

Difficult for me to find in stores.

I searched long and hard to find a product that worked for my acne. I had mild-moderate, with about 5-10 zits at a time. I use the scrub twice a day, and it has dramatically cleared up the acne, and now I am left with a few pimples here and there, and the red marks left over. Overall, this is a great product. It seems to work for some people more than others, so I would try it...it can't hurt. I love this product!
