Pros:

Leaves skin feeling fresh and clean, helped a bit with acne.

Cons:

Didn't do anything for blackheads...also I used it in the summer when I was out in the sun and swimming alot all day and my face got really dry even with moisturizer. Scent was a little strong.

It's ok. Nothing spectacular.

Pros:

made cheeks and forehead feel soft and clear of blemishes
my neck felt really soft

Cons:

lots of acne on my nose

I usually don't get many pimples on my forehead and cheeks but when I wash them, they get really dry and gross looking. This product made them super soft and I've never seen them look so healthy since I was a little kid. My nose, however, tends to get a lot of pimples and this product just increased the amount of pimples on my nose. I would recommend this for people with very little acne and who want a scrub that is moisturizing and doesn't overdry skin, but probably not for people with a lot of acne.

Pros:

-worked for a while
-cleared pimples

Cons:

After a while of using it, it stopped working and instead of clearing my acne, it simply replaced them. Like, I would have a pimple by my hair line and after i used the scrub, that pimple would go away but i would get another one somewhere else.

It's alright if you're looking for temporary relief. But, it still worked pretty good(:

Pros:

- Makes your skin feel clean

Cons:

- Doesn't do much for acne
- There isn't enough "exfoliating" action

It's good for a day-to-day "exfoliator", but don't expect it to work wonders on your skin. I'm quite disappointed with the results... My skin doesn't respond to ANY Biore products for that matter. I've seen and tried better products.

Gets the job done, but that's about all.

Pros:

Light exfoliation

Cons:

Not to many benefits

I found it was good for some light exfoliation.. but beyond that.. nothing much. I don't believe it helps much with any breakouts you might get.. but it could help very mild breakouts with some skin types.

Pros:

It gives you a very light feeling, extremely gentle, comfortable. It seems to work very well with sesitive skin. Leaves skin, so soft.

Cons:

It doesn't seem to do anything, like it doesn't exactly remove acne. Skin tends to become a bit dry, somewhat red.

It seems to be really gentle, very creamy. It doesn't actually seem like a scrub to me more like a cream cleanser. When I first used it my skin felt really hot and uncomfortable, however, it did adjust easily very quickly. Everyone's skin type is different it could work for you it could not. I'd say give it a week before giving up on it though.

Pros:

Skin Feels Cleaner
Not oily
refreshing

Cons:

beads sometimes stay in, and around my hair line even after i rinse. not a very good product to use at the sink. more of a shower scrub.

(My acne is caused by hormones, some call it "PMS Acne", so i do not blame this product for not completely fixing my problem) Feels great on skin, works great for black heads, moderate on white heads and undecided about cyst, (that's what i suffer most from, but i believe it to be my own fault. I've been using the wrong makeup for years and i sometimes feel the need to pop) works best in shower, use only a pea sized amount. I wash with it everyday. Rinse very well. Scrub in circular motions, and with the tips of your fingers/palm. (I'll try it for another month, then re-rate it)

Cools irritated skin
I've been using this for about two months now and I have severe jawline acne. This hasn't made any significant changes except cooling down my irritated skin, though it would still be red. It isn't the best exfoliator, from what I see they've been using a new formula. There are better ones out there but this is good for a tingle.
