Pros:

Inexpensive
Smells great
Sloughs off dead skin cells

Cons:

Overuse and your skin may dry out

I used this only a few times per week and let it set for a minute or two before rinsing. I find that it stays more affective this way! On the other days I wash with Dove face bar or just warm water in the a.m. It loses its affect if you use it 2x/day every day and may dry out your skin.

Pros:

- Smells good
- Made my skin feel fresh and soft

Cons:

- Couldn't see any improvements
- Still got breakouts
- Didn't work for me at all

I was disappointed, as I thought this product was really going to help my skin. All it really did was make my skin feel fresh and clean. It didn't get rid of any spots or prevent breakouts at all. My guess is it only works for certain skin types, and obviously not mine as mine is quite sensitive. But it was quite cheap, so you could try it for yourself if you want, because even thought it did nothing for me, it might help you :)

Pros:

Smells good

Cons:

Made my acne worse
Dried my face out
Give me acne on my neck

The advertisements really tempted me into buying it. I love the smell of grapefruit, but I can honestly say this is the worst acne treatment I have ever used! I generally like Neutrogena products, but this one gave me a break-out that I haven't seen since I was 14. I instantly through this product out, I wouldn't give it to my worst enemy!

Pros:

Clears up acne pretty well.
Makes your skin feel smooth.

Cons:

If you stop using this product acne will come back, but not as bad.

You can use it. It does work pretty well, but there are better solutions.

Pros:

Smells great
Gets rid of unneeded oils

Cons:

Drys out skin-even lotion won't help me
Burns my skin
Makes skin feel tight
Made my acne a little worse

I stopped using it for about a month and then I started it again. I stopped because it was drying my skin out. I decided that I would use lotion this time. The lotion wouldn't even help it. To be truthful it dried out my skin so much that it looks like I have a beard. I'm a woman-and I don't want a beard. I have about five or six pimples on my chin plus many black heads. And many going around my head where my hair starts. Probably only because on my hair there all the time. I have a lot of black heads on my nose and no actual pimples. Hope I helped!!

Pros:

-Cleared some acne within first week

Cons:

-After first week I started having many huge pimples on my face

-Made my acne worse then before

This product worked at first, showing signs of disappearing acne. Though in the second or third week I began having a lot of huge pimple type breakouts my forehead. I thought it was just trying to get rid of all the acne beneath the surface, but two weeks later still using the product my acne was just worse than before.
