Helps with redness
This product helped reduce redness on my face as well as larger pimples, but after using it for a few months, it left me with small bumps all over my forehead because this product stripped my skin's natural oils. If you have sensitive skin I do not recommend this because the cooling/tingling effect is known to damage skin. On the other hand, it is good at bringing the heads of pimples to the surface, but I wouldn't use it everywhere on the face.

Pros:

Prevented acne
Wasn't drying

Cons:

Not effective
Cleared up nothing

This was a waste :( But it is worth a go since it is cheap and doesn't make your skin worse or anything.

Pros:

-Made my skin soft
-worked for a couple weeks

Cons:

-Worked for a little bit, but after using it for to long it stopped working.
-Makes my skin really oily now

I started using this product when it was around the beginning of December 2010. it worked for a bit but stopped and i started to break out on my chin and i never use to break out on my chin. i also started having large pimples and my skin became more oily. I am still using it because i still have hope but if i don't see progress I'm just going to stop.

Pros:

Smells nice

Cons:

Doesn't reduce redness (it actually causes it)
Dries skin out
Caused me to break out

I used the entire tube of this, and it dried my skin out, irritated it, and made it itchy. My skin is sensitive and I have moderate acne. The tube lasted about a month (maybe two, I don't know), and when I finished, I did not repurchase.
