Pros:

-TOTALLY GOT RID OF MY ACNE
-refreshes

Cons:

-stings sometimes
-too mild, doesn't exfoliate my skin that well.

at first when i got this, i thought it was garbage and it didn't work. but one day, i got the idea to LEAVE IT ON MY FACE FOR A COUPLE MINUTES after i scrub my face with it. best idea ever! i guess when you leave it on your face, it really gets into your pores or something, i don't know. but it did wonders for me. now i use it every morning and night. i went from having horrible cystic acne to having the occasional pimple every few weeks.

Pros:

Clears acne
Skin is instantly softer and smoother
"Clean" feeling, but not drying
Energizing scent
Prevents acne

Cons:

The exfoliating beads don't all always wash off easily (I find them caught in my hair line, etc. sometimes), but that happens to me with any exfoliating beads.

This is my current favorite cleanser/exfolient. I've used it for about 6 months now, and it's done simply amazing things for my skin. I decided to give this cleanser a while to start clearing my acne, because INSTANTLY it made my skin feel really soft and smooth (more so than anything I've used before). I did have initial breakouts that cleared within a month. It's still working for me, so I'll keep using it! Another plus is that it doesn't have sulfates, which tend to break me out terribly. I'm a product junky, but this is a staple for me, and will be unless it stops working, but so far it hasn't. I highly recommend it.

Pros:

Leaves skin smooth
Helps clear up skin
Smells good
My face isn't as oily after I wash my face with this
Doesn't dry out skin

Cons:

Nothing at all

I've been struggling with acne ever since the beginning of summer 2012 and it really got me so insecure and I've tried every product possible. THEN I picked this up while at Pathmark and used it for at least 2 weeks and my skin has already cleared up TREMENDOUSLY. I definitely recommend to everyone with oily severe acne.

Pros:

*is definitely fast acting(overnight for me
* didn't dry out or irritate my skin
* my acne Is practically gone!!!
* doesn't lie when it says stops acne before it starts I haven't had any breakouts

Cons:

* kinda expensive for the amount you get but I'll never buy anything else! It's awesome

For 7 bucks your getting more then ur money's worth. I have mild acne and sometimes it's breakout after breakout but this stuff has stopped them. I've only been on it for a week or so but it has completely cleared upy skin except for a occasional pimple. And Im one of those people who has tried everything and everything over and over and nothig works. This stuff has totally surprised me and I'm so happy I finally found something that gets rid of my pimples fast and hopefully forever!

I've been using this product for about 10 months and I would never use anything else. Cleared my skin within a few days, and I rarely get any blemishes now.

Pros:

- smells amazing
- gentle!!
- it really does work

Cons:

- I run out of this like crazy!

This is the bomb! I've seen nothing but good results from this scrub so far. My facial acne has been getting worse over the past weeks (not due to this cleanser!), so I've been going caveman on my face. However, I've been using this on my upper back, chest, & shoulders and my bacne/chest-ne is COMPLETELY gone!! Woo hoo! Side note- I leave it on for about 1-2 minutes before washing it off, I think it works better that way!

This Product is amazing. im 18 years old. i've had horrible acne since i was 13. I used everything in the world you can think of. ONE DAY i used this product because i was hoping this was the one. and it was! just put water on your face. put the scrub anyway except your eyes . of course. rub it in . i use my my palm(on my cheeks) wash off. go to sleep. ( or wake up ) my skin is normally oil. but this ance scrub controls it more than any other product without making your skin irritated. TRY IT . ACNE STRESS CONTROL? i agree, pimples and new pimples are no stress for me now. USED THIS PRODUCT MAYBE FOR A WEEK . MY SKIN HAS NEVER BEEN SO CLEAR IN 5 YEARS.

Fast acting

Cons:

So glad I tried this cleanser! It actually keeps my face sooo much clearer! I use the cream cleaner in the morning( it is the only cleanser that has the glycolic acid in it) which is very good for your skin and I use the power-gel cleanser at night because it takes your makeup off better and foams up for that clean feeling! I also use the 3-in-1 hydrating treatment. I have searched and searched for something to clear up my skin! I feel so much better about myself.. You've got to try it! I have very sensitive skin and it's works great on my skin! I hope this never gets discontinued!
